Dear shoes,
remember all
the basketball games we played.
All the laps we ran.
You might be worn out
but your still my favorite.
When I got you
you were fresh and new
Look at you now
old and torn.
You might be old
moldy with hair
I think it's time
to get a new pair.
This is just to say
I'm sorry mom
I ate all of your hard work
I ate all the cookies
You spent three hours on
They were delicious
Just like a chocolate tire
I'm so sorry that I ate your hard work
but I think it was worth
This is just to say
I'm sorry
I'm sorry mom
I ate all of your hard work
I ate all the cookies
You spent three hours on
They were delicious
Just like a chocolate tire
I'm so sorry that I ate your hard work
but I think it was worth
This is just to say
I'm sorry

What if my car could fly
I would go to the moon
I could fly around the world
I should cruise to Hawaii
I'd travel near and far
in my traveling car.

On the left is my picture, on the right is guy sparkman's picture.Gwark the monster is very different then anything you have ever seen. His body parts are very odd. he has an egg shaped head with two blue antennas on it. Gwark has two regular eyes with three pupils in them. All three pupils are pink. For a nose, he only has two little slits. His mouth is fairly normal, but he has teeth like icicles. Gwark has a human like torso, but on his back he wings like a fly. His hands are like red vice grips. Gwark is very strong his muscles are very defined. Gwark has a yellow utility belt like afruit roll up. On his utility belt he has a laser gun like a screw diver. Gwarks legs are like human legs. Gwark has three toes on each foot like triangles. Gwarks whole body is orange. That sums up my whole alien.

Over Christmas break I had a lot of fun. Every year I go up to my grandma's and Grandpa's house. They have a house up in northeastern Utah. They always get a lot of snow there. On the third day I was there I went snowboarding up at Wolf Creek Mountain. It was the best powder ever. It was a lot of fun. On Christmas Eve I went to the annual party at my aunt's house. On Christmas day I woke up and I opened up some presents. The first thing I opened up was a Xbox 360. The next thing I opened up was a Wii. I was so crazy! It turns out my dad got a Wii for free from work. I also did some sledding. New Year's Eve was awesome. I went to Pocatello and stayed in a hotel there. The hotel was pretty cool. There was a big pool, table soccer, ping pong, and pool. I went swimming for a couple of hours. it was really fun because there was some kids I new there. One was my cousin who is 8, another 8 year old named Hunter. There was also my sister, and two girls: one named Samantha who was 8, and another girl named Danny that was 13. After swimming getting out of the pool, I went up to Danny and Samantha's room and watched T.V. Danny and Sam fell asleep, so I left after a while. Then it was the New Year. Everyone was drinking champagne but me. The next day I came back to my Grandma's house. Then I went Snowboarding, And then I went Home and went to school.

This quarter Mr. Berquist gave us a big project to complete. It was to make a claymation about a European explorer we read a book about. The European explorer I chose to read about was Sir Ernest Shackleton. He was a European explorer from the early 1900's. He and his crew took off to Antarctica on a ship named Endurance. We also had a choice too pick partners if we chose to. I chose my friend Cameron because I thought that we would work well together.
The most enjoyable part of the project was after taking the picture for the claymation. That was definitely my favorite part of the project because it was fun to do the voice overs of the characters that we took pictures of. We also got to watch our scenes in a more fluent type of way, rather than flipping though pictures on a camera. I also liked making music for the scenes. Cameron and I opened up Garage Band and picked out a really good beat and added some strings to mix it up. The final project came out really well. I was also trying to out do Chase, who used to have a song on Cameron and I 's claymation. Before each scene started we had to put a title saying what scene it was. it was fun to experiment to see what different kinds of effects we could put on the titles. Another thing I had fun doing was our scene four. In scene four Cameron and I made our characters shoot a seal in the head. It was fun because we made a harpoon gun and shoot the seal and blood came out everywhere. we made the harpoon gun by putting a tooth pick into a piece of clay. It looked pretty good. That was my favorite scene.
The hardest part of this claymation project was moving the clay men inch by inch. It was so hard because if you moved it to much the scene would look bad. If you moved it to little it would take way to long. It was also sometimes really frustrating because sometimes the men would fall over and you would have to find exactly where they fell over or the scene would look bad. After a while the clay men's arms started to get ruined. We had to make them new arms after the first couple of scenes. Another hard part of the claymation was making the backgrounds. I just really don't like coloring.
The most important thing I learned while doing this project was keeping my materials organized. I think this was so important was because when all the materials got messed up it was harder to get work done. After the fourth scene the materials were mostly ruined so we were limited to the things we could do. In my materails bag it was just a mess. When the clay got ruined we could not use it anymore. One thing Cameron and I made sure didn't get ruined was the clay men. Because if the clay men got ruined than we would have to make new ones, and that would be really bad.
Overall I liked this project. I liked this project because it was fun to be creative with the clay. It was also fun to work with the fun technology to make our claymation look better. It got old after a while to have to take all those pictures though. It was really coll to see the final project.
