quote: " I wake to the drone of an airplane engine and the feeling of something warm dripping down my chin. I lift my hand to feel my face. My front four teeth are gone, I have a hole in my cheek, my nose is broken and my eyes are swollen nearly shut. I open them and I look around and
I'm in the back of a plane and there's no one near me. I look at my clothes and my clothes are covered with a colorful mixture of spit, snot, urine, vomit, and blood."
question: I just started the book today, and I only had a meager 15 minutes to read, so I am really just wondering what will happen next?
comment: In my short 15 years I have done a ton of writing and something I have always been taught is to start with a hook or attention grabber to maintain the interest of the reader. I think the quote above is great hook, it's gory and explicit and it holds an interest that forces you to continue to read further.

media
what is media?
Media comes from the latin word for medium which means a means of doing something.
There are countless forms of media such as advertising, electronic, digital, multimedia, brodcast, television, news, etc. Media is a form of communication across vast areas of land.
Today many of our actions can be influenced by the media a group of people that can be particularly be targeted are teenagers possibly for their quality of being gullible. One form that can tend to influence us, is MTV because of the shows that are trendy or seen as cool, by being cool we can mimic the clothing or actions portrayed in these shows. :D

yet another poem..
pictures
In a picture you will see a memory calling out remember me.
Time goes by it fades past, but pictures stay recalling back.
In a picture you will see friends,lovers, enemies all a sharing a commanality being framed in a moment never to be quite the same.
In a picture you will see God's creations you and me.
Gaaze further and like us a tree or bee might be captured still creating the right sensation to bring you glee.
In a picture you will see your life staring back calling out remember me.
Stare harder and you might see all the joyous gifts God has given you and me.

more poems...
achieving life fulfillment
Now matter how hard we try and vie to reach success how do we know when it has been achieved?
How will we define it?
Is it gained with a family and a career?
Does that pertain?
Or are we successful once we have gained the ever coveted fame?
Maybe it is not so vain.
Perhaps it's a sense we gain through experience we have trained to obtain.
Who knows?
Do you?
It may be true that by doing all you can do, and nnot fleeing the obstacles you may one day be able to claim your fame and success.
Laala once again I was bored so I decided to write a poem.

love?
love does it exist?
is it just infatuation or is my mind playing tricks on me?
is it his smile, eyes, or glare?
does he really stare or am i just imagining things that are not there?
love does it exist?
or is it just his kiss that I miss?
am I really in love or do I just like the chase and the exhilaration of the race?
is it mutual or am alone in this silly state of bliss?
love does it exist?
how long with the thrill last?
In a year will I ponder my distant love interests and remember yet again his charming face?
how will I erase this obsession that haunts my every wake?
love does it exist?
and if its true what if it all turns blue and ends without a trace?
my tears will come and me cheeks will become red indeed.
To my knees I'll fall and cry with all my gall Love Why Does It Exist!
haha i was bored so i decided to write a poem.Enjoy
