The Beast chapter 14 to 16 (end)


After finish reading the book "The beast" I was surprised about the ending. In the ending Gabi actually goes to rehab to be a normal person again. Spoon was with her all those time and helped her. After everything is OK, Spoon goes back to Wallingford. The part that really shockede me was when Chanelle and Spoon were kissing and expressing rheir love. I think it wasn't real because Spoon's true love is Gabi. In addition Spoon graduates from the Acadamy and he was accepted to Brown. Gabi also graduated but with no scolership. Another thing that really shocked me was that Rafe is now addicted to drugs. I think it led him to this situation was gang and struggles. Gabi and Spoon on the other hand were spending together and Gabi was no the gabi she was before Spoon left to the Acadamy. At the ending Gabi worked as well as Spoon.. Gabi met Spoon's frinds at the University ans had a lot of fun with him. "Drugs become part of you even after you leave them behind. They're always there. We don't leave anything behind," Gabi said. This makes wonder if she is still in touch with drugs but i hope not. Chanelle got excepted to UCLA, which was really far away. Spoon didn't allow himself to like Chanelle because Gabi ment a lot to him and it ends peacefully. The ending was great and interesting eventhough it was kind of confusing. So anything is possible. You can make a bad person into good with a little effort or you can make them bad. The Beast, a great story and it's written in a way we can express ourselfs. I recommend this book and we can learn a valuable lesson frm it. Great Ending!!

The Beast Chapters 12-13: The Labyrinth


The term Lybyrinth means a trap, maze and hard to get out of. The Beast chapter 12 is titled Lybyrinth because Gabi and Spoon are both facing and dealing with many problems. Now they can't find a solution or the way out. In the story Gabi is stuck with drugs and now she is addicted after knowing that her mother died. Spoon is confused and thinks his life has changed. In Harlem many people changed especially Gabi changed, which really shocks him. In chapter 12, he can't find Gabi anywhere and he searches everywhere. He knows she is dealing with drugs. After getting a location and spending a lot of money he finds Gabi, very week. He then takes her home and treats her nicely. Gabi knows she chose the wrong path but she can't turn back from it. So Gabi is in Labyrinth because her life changed and she is in a situation where she is locked or traped. Spoon is trapped in a Labyrinth as well because he is stuck in this totally new world where everything is changed. Spoon is helping her overcome all the obstacles.
Why and How are both Gabi and Spoon trapped in a Lybyrinth? Well the text "Lybyrinth" proves how and why are they stuck in a Lybyrinth. Gabi is trapped in a worl where she could only see drugs and she lost eveything. She chose her path and lifestyle. Her feelings changed and it's like she is ending. Spoon is stuck in Lybyrinth because to him his life slipped someway and everything changed. he cant believe his eyes surprise how people like clara, scott and Gabi changed. He must be there for Gabi and that's the right thing to do.Therefore Spoon and Gabi are both trapped in Lybyrinth.

Black Clouds


All I see when i open my eyes
darkness

All i hear when i open my ears

bad news around me
crying
destruction
All i feel when i open my heart
hopeless
depression
scared
All i hope when i close my eyes
a better life
peace

bright clouds

On the Court With Michael Jordan (Missing Work)


On the court with Michael Jordan written by Matt Christopher.What does this book make you wonder about? Well this book makes me wonder about being a basketball player like Michael Jordan or Air Jordan.If i was Michael Jordan i would be really popular and my life would be totally different. Michael Jordan is one of the best basketball player in history and he lived up to his name. Imagine holding the ball, flying on the air and making the dunk while the crowd is cheering for you. The best move and #23 does it over and over again and shocks you every time. Even though Michael Jordan didn't make the basketball team at first all the hard work showed his path. This book makes me wonder about any=thing is possible just a little hard work can make a change. It makes me wonder about winning so many awards and recorgnized as the Air Jordan almost every people in the world know's about. In addition it makes wonder about being in the team "Bulls" the best team back than and soon joining the "Wizards" Flying over the court and than making the shot for which he is still recorgnized today. Micheal Jordan also played baseball and he showed how basketball is played. This book makes me dream instad of wonder of being Michael Joerdan and become a role model of many others.
