Blackfish (Movie Reveiw)

        This documentary is amazing! It is a terrible thing that happened but the documentary is very good. Having the orcas is captivity is terrible and they don’t deserve it, SeaWorld knows what they are doing is bad and that is why they are lying. If they tell the truth they will most likely be sued and they would lose their orcas, ummm I’m sorry those orcas are in captivity so technically they are not SeaWorlds orcas. The movie is a true representation of what SeaWorld did and what they are doing, in the movie they are convincing us that it is a bad idea to keep the orcas at SeaWorld and it really isn’t that hard to see that SeaWorld shouldn’t have the orcas. In the documentary they tell us the story of how many trainers died but their is a trainer named Dawn who was the best trainer at SeaWorld at the time. One day the SeaWorld afternoon show was going poorly and the orcas were not listening, there was a later show that was going to happen when Dawn would feed the orcas, Dawn had

Fiction vs. Non-Fiction

    Now this is my opinion but I prefer fiction, I dislike non-fiction because it only talks about facts, fiction is like a story that you read and you can use your imagination to paint a picture in your head of the characters, what they look like, what they sound like, and where they are. In non-fiction there is a specific “story” that they are talking about, the “story” that you read states facts and when I read non-fiction I am SO bored. Fiction, in my opinion, is more entertaining to read because it is not real (sometimes the stories are based on true events but most of the time the true events are really crunching to read.) and when you read fiction, when I read fiction I actually enjoy it. Now don’t get me wrong there are people that like to read non-fiction but I don’t like it, when I chose books I am pretty picky so there aren’t a lot of books that I would read or like to read. When it comes to non-fiction it is even harder to pick out a book I like and when I do, most of the

What I did over Christmas Break

                                                                                                     Christmas break!     Christmas break was amazing, well kind of, I spent time with my family on Christmas Day and we all opened presents together, I went to a camp with my sister, her friends, and the group from church that I am in. I am not going to waste my time telling you all what I got for Christmas because I can always put pictures in at the end showing what I got, I will be telling you what I did over break! I will start at Christmas Eve, I was really excited for Christmas, I decided that I would go to bed early so the time would pass quicker but the problem was I couldn’t fall asleep! It happens every year for me, for some reason on Christmas Eve at night I can not sleep. I toss and turn and finally manage to fall asleep, then I wake up, at five o clock, I wasn’t very excited about that. I tiptoe down the stairs and peek at the tree, then, I tiptoe back in bed hoping to fall a

New year resolutions!

     It is finally a new year and that means new resolutions! There are a few things that I want to accomplish that are a little silly (well one in particular) but I think that they are fine. My first goal for 2018 is to exercise more, I try to stay as healthy as I can but I don’t get to do it as much as I wish, what I want to do for exercise is to run more with my mom or myself and join cross country again next year in seventh grade. My second goal is the sill one, well it’s not really that silly but it’s different, I want to see Hamilton (the musical) because it is my favorite musical and it is playing in Chicago until February. My last goal is to sign up for tennis, I really want to play tennis because I think it would be fun and I would get good exercise, I have tried to sign up for tennis in other places but no one else signs up and then I can’t do it. I don’t have any other resolutions because I think that it is bad to have twenty goals and I only want to set three goals because
