https://www.webtoons.com/en/supernatural/im-the-grim-reaper/list?title_no=1697 look this link up using your mobile phone or your PC at home

A: This comic that I’ve read is called “I’m the Grim Reaper” where it shows the main character dead in the 1st season on their way to the deepest circle of hell where your senses don’t even work, along with oxygen intake and it’s just pure darkness where Scarlet (the MC) becomes a grim reaper that is supposed to reap one sinner’s soul a day and teams up with a detective named chase that was taken off the force for something he has done in his time as a detective and they make an awkward couple that ends up in the crosshairs of the red spades resulting in another character that is set to kill her.

B: The thing that I like about this when I read I’m the Grim Reaper is the time and dedication to each panel where he/she has a process on what to do for each action scene and every scene that doesn’t involve action because the background that a character is in can explain alot that’s happening like is the place in a frozen forest where the main character is talking to a crow, or it’s an alley where 2 characters are fighting to the death, or in a house where 2 characters are just hanging out about to do something important in a moment, the setting tells all.

C: I’m learning multiple things when reading this comic/manga, that there are minor sins that leave you in the 1st circle running from something that’ll leave you through self-isolation, a circle of hell that’ll leave you running through a version of the earth with no one around to talk to, giving us everything we know from present-day leaving no sign of another human, a circle of hell that’ll leave you hanging on a noose for all eternity, and the one mentioned in part A and there are 3 branches of the afterlife in the lore, Heaven, Purgatory, and satin’s throne, AKA Hell.

D: Because I’m into the types of comics with action, adventure, and the type that I’m an addict to anime wise, isekai, where you either a: die or b: get magically transported to by magical means resulting in you going through internal damnation, suffering with Muda (useless) party members, or literally becoming the final boss meaning you could easily defeat Hitler by tanking through the beaches of Normandy and finding Hitler and killing him either with a stab wound through the heart, shooting him with your or his gun, or blunt force trauma meaning that the MC in anime, manga, or comics making them a human Tunguska.

E: This is useful to me because I am a human who is interested in nerd and anime stuff, and there are multiple animations based on multiple works from webtoon, manga, and certain comics resulting in the work to get it’s own show tower of god and god of highschool got that treatment and I have high hopes for this Web comic for it to get it’s own rendition of an anime because with enough attention from an animation studio, That might as well come true and for the fan reaction *looks at comments* people like this as much as I do.

F: I would recommend this to anyone who likes Sci-Fi/Dark things because the main character is a grim reaper and there’s a lot of blood, and I mean a lot because HELLO, grim reaper, a reaper of sinners souls, they all go to hell when there’s a reaper around, THEY HARVEST YOUR SOUL BY KILLING IN RETURN FOR ANOTHER DAY ON EARTH. These grim reapers have a quota of 1 and IF THEY DON’T MEET THIS QUOTA back to hell for you, no life on earth anymore, no luxury of video games, no luxury of food, you get sent back to your circle of hell where you belong.

G.1: I just told you that. You’re seriously slow, aren’t you?: This is a quote from early on (1st episode) in the series telling us that the main character has died and was promoted to a reaper

G.2: You let the demon inside you completely take over for a moment.: This quote comes from late-season one where scarlet lost control of her temper telling us that there’s an external force that’ll take control of scarlet until she keeps it together

G.3: Bacteria is more important to me than you are.: This is the insult that scarlet threw at satan because she wanted to go back to the overworld to chase and help him out with cold cases to help her quota greatly

So, the one thing that enthralled me by reading. It would have to be the DC comic series WATCHMEN, written by Alan Moore and illustrated by Dave Gibbings. It is one of the most important pieces of comic book media that came in the later parts of the 1980s. The story of the comics(12 issues or “chapters”) tells the story of a dystopian world on the brink of nuclear war between the United States and the Soviet Union. But we see a different perspective, one involving a murder investigation of someone of incredibly high importance and a former crime fighter which slowly turns towards a much greater conspiracy showing the fears and dangers of possible nuclear war and how far someone or something goes to prevent it.

I do my best to avoid spoiling the major details of the plot but it is a fantastic read from beginning to end. With many twists and turns and unexpected revelations and several different views of life and philosophy shown by many different characters with radically different backgrounds. The legacy the series has on comic book media can’t be understated. It is considered by many to be a masterpiece and a real work of art. It proved that comic books can be really impactful and show real meaning and messages with their themes and political messages.

The reason I find the comic to be incredible and interesting is that it is more of a deconstruction of the many superhero tropes we know in our current pop culture. The artwork done by Dave Gibbings is something that should be framed in a museum for the whole world to see. The artwork is shown in 3 by 3 rectangles on each page unless it is something larger that requires more space. Finally, the writing done by the legendary Alan Moore is well throughout and well written with meaning and depth towards the narrative.

1. I read the Birth of Pro Football. The date that is most famous is November 12, 1892 because that is the day when the Allegheny Athletic Association (AAA) defeated Pittsburgh Athletic Club (PAC). William Pudge Heffelfinger was paid $500 to play for the AAA. Before this famous date he was a really good rugby player from Yale in the 1880s when he changed the rule that slowly transformed rugby into the new game of American Football. When football was first played it was very heated because of bets. So every team would try to get the best players available. Players would be getting paid by either a contract where they would play with their team for a certain amount of games, or they would be paid to play one game which the price ranged for $200-$600, or they would get a price, usually trophies or watches. But all of this paying was declared illegal.


2.3. Learning about how American football started. It was cool to learn that it started with two teams that would play against each other and that they were rivals. The reason why the NFL pays players is because when football first started they were paying the best of the best players to play for their team so they can win their bets and get even more money. I also learned that the AAA expense sheet that provides the first irrefutable evidence of an out-and-out cash payment is referred to as the “pro football’s birth certificate.” I also learned that the first two teams were AAA (Allegheny Athletic Association) and the PAC (Pittsburgh Athletic Club).


4. The reason why this interest so much is because I really like football and I didn’t really know how the NFL really started. By reading this I have learned on how the NFL started and on how popular it was back then. I have also learned that american football was created by a really good rugby player named Walter Camp. He changed rugby into American football by changing a few rules. It is also useful to me because I learned things that I wouldn’t have. Now as a football fan I know a little bit more about football then some people.


5. I would recommend it to people who really like football and don't really know anything about how American football started. I would also recommend this to people who just like sports and just want to learn more about American football. Or I would recommend this to people who are trying to get into football.

7. “Meanwhile, athletic clubs that sponsored a great variety of sports teams became a popular phenomenon in the United States in the years immediately after the Civil War” 4th paragrph. The Reason why I chose this sentence is because it shows how old American football is. The sentence right after says that one of the sports athletic clubs embraced was football.

“Others "awarded" expensive trophies or watches to their players, who would in turn pawn their awards, only to receive them again and again after each game they played.” 5th Paragrph. The reason why I chose this sentence is because it shows that players were getting paid a lot to play for teams.

“Since football players were supposed to be amateurs, these practices were questioned by the Amateur Athletic Union but for every tactic declared illegal.” The reason why I chose this sentence is because it says that teams were illegally paying players to play on their teams just so they can win.

https://www.masterclass.com/articles/how-to-write-a-script#1-write-your-logline

What I read was more like a key and a tool instead of a fascination to me. The thing that I read was about screenwriting, instructions on how to write, and life hacks on how to write fast and perfectly on this website called MasterClass. MasterClass is a website about teaching and instructing people who want to act, paint, write, etc. The instructors that teach the people are professionals in the industries who teach you everything and what it’s like to be famous and stuff like that. I've been learning this for about a year and feel like becoming one already. This fascinates me and is the best about what I read because it gives me instruction and a lot of courage and I've been planning on becoming a screenwriter and to make a huge impact on Hollywood. The dream of me becoming a screenwriter has lasted 6 or 9 years and I have chosen what I want to write and send it into the script competition and impress them and get list projects that they want me to do. These script competitions are competitions where contestants send in their script and it gets reviews from the judges and gets insiders of Hollywood’s attention to make these scripts. The things I have been learning about screenwriting on the MasterClass website in the past so far is how to structure the acts, how to deal with dialogue, how to deal with the tone, and how many pages, words, and action there should be. Not only do I learn about those I also learn how to get myself back up, how to not be under pressure, what should the perfect time be to write where and when, and what not to do when you’re writing your script. The thing that interested me the most on MasterClass is the professionals and celebrities telling you and teaching you what it takes and how it feels to be them when you’re working in the industry and making an impact on cinema. They usually say after you’ve done something good and done some things, it’ll be easy at first, but when your life moves on and you get more projects it’ll get harder and harder in life so you can make a dent. Everyone has always said this to me, “When you do something really good, impactful, and big people will be wanting more of that.” MasterClass is very useful because I thought about going to film art school, but because of the script competitions and the instructions that MasterClass gave to me about screenwriting and other things I don’t really need to go to film art school and I just saved a lot of money and I feel like I’m ready to go right away and make and impact on Hollywood and it’s audiences. So I felt it was my number one useful thing that I had in my entire life and look where got me too. The recommendation of MasterClass is truly recommended and well worth it. The people who I would recommend it to are my friends and people who are interested in the movie industry or who want to become part of the industry. The reason why I choose them is because it’ll make their dreams possibly come true like mine and it’ll show them how to do things and everything will move a whole lot faster. The three sentences that I have in the article that are my favorite are: “All Hollywood movie magic starts with a first draft and evolves into a screenplay fit for the silver screen.” “With sufficient study, practice, and a familiarity with the standard script writing process, though, you can master the craft of screenwriting.” “Writing a feature script or even the script for a short film can seem overwhelming, but it’s manageable if you break it down into methodical steps.” The reason why I chose these sentences is because it gives myself some courage.

I read the promised Neverland. the anime is on YouTube just type “the promised Neverland episode 1” its also on Netflix. the books themselves are harder to find, you can buy them but you can proually read them on free from a manga app.


its a story about these kids living in what seems to be a normal good happy orpanseg with there “mama”. They take complicated exams every day but other then that they do whatever they want. but then they find out they are being giving as food to. The 3 oldest children, Emma, ray and my favorite Norman are the only children who know. Emma wants to leave with all the children, ray thinks it should just be the 3 of them. And Norman is on Emmas side but knows it is going to be hard to take all the other children with them. What can they do, as children? Find out.


What is best about what I read? well to me it’s the love they have for one another. And how happy and strong they all are. its amazing to see children fighting for there rights to live, it’s sad but that’s the world they were born into in. It makes you so happy and so sad, it plays with your feeling and just when you think everything is lost, they are right back on trail. They change there life and so many others just because of hope and love.



Who should read this? Anyone, I would say anyone who loves reading and watching anime should watch and book them. I have the first 15 books if anyone wants to read them. but its up to you what you want to read and watch.

Summarize what you read with 100+ words. Include the link or origin.
https://rokzfast.com/women-reveal-what-they-would-do-if-all-men-disappeared-for-24-hours-and-theyd-walk-alone-at-night-120108/
I read about how society and the system really think and treats women as if the things that happen to them are their fault. A post went viral on 3 different social media platforms. All of them were asked the same question “if men were to disappear for 24 hours what would you do?”. The answers were so sad. Most women said that they would want to go out alone in the dark or walk alone with no weapons. Many said they could finally go out with friends without babysitting each other's drinks and them as well, in fear of being drugged, taken or raped. However, it gets worse to pile on this question women were asked why and what experiences or what they have been told personally to give these as answers. Many women gave the answer that a man had hurt them or tried or that they have seen it happen to someone else. Then they were asked why it happened or what others have told them in order to push blam off of the man himself and his actions and push it on what they are wearing...sickening right?
2. What is best about what you read. Write 100+ words.
I believe the “best” part was when women outright had the question “ why am I being asked what I was where, doing or saying instead of you asking him why he did it.” others have said “I don't know why but courts are always asking the wrong person the wrong answer, they ask me what I was doing or if I said no, but they never ask why he didn't stop or why he kept going” these questions are always trying to cover for the man saying “boys will be boys” and “you were asking for it” or “not all men” but these are the exact reasons why this is still happening and not getting better.
3. What did you learn? Write 100+ words.
I learned that men really don't want to change their mindset into seeing how women live in constant fear but instead try to justify it with “ not all men” and others. I don't want to raise a child where I have to tell her and teach her how to spot and defend herself against men and teach her to live in fear and choose to clothe that isn't “asking for it”. I want future women and girls to be safe and free of this fear. I learned that until others are taught basic human decency that most of those men will go on to be the exact thing that women fear and are taught to hide from in fear of their life being taken from them.

I decided to read about greek mythology and the topic I chose in the greek mythology was the history of Hera. Hera is the greek goddess of family and marriage. She was married to zeus and he did not want to follow what marriage is supposed to be and did the opposite of what he should've been doing. He had affairs with numerous other women and had illegitimate children which made things a lot more complicated with him and Hera because she is the goddess of what zeus is doing wrong. Zeus went to earth and cheated on hera and his consequence was that she turned Io the one he cheated with into a cow. There were many other vengence scenarios and stories that she did to zeus from his unloyal and unfaithful relationship with her. She had much jealousy of any woman that tried to pursue zeus and anytime they did try to she punished. Another thing I looked up was the history of some of the greek mythological creatures. The first was the Cerberus which is a three headed watchdog that protects the underworld. This three head monster was an amazing beast that would prevent the comers from going back from the underworld. The cerberus has three monstrous siblings,Orthus, lernaean hydra, and the chimaera. The cerberus and chimaera are 2 of my favorite greek creatures this is mainly because of how cool they are. The Cerberus was actually in harry potter it was also a protector. May have been a lot less violent than the actual cerberus though. In harry potter it is just an angry, slobbery dog but there is more to it in greek mythology. The chimaera is an astonishing creature with a body of a lion,head of a goat on its back, and tail of a serpent(snake). The best part about all of this is that all of the information i am learning is interesting to me. I love reading on greek mythology and the history of the gods and goddesses. The monsters that are in it as well are just so cool and interesting to me. One of my favorite parts of what i read is that Hera and Aphrodite are much more similar than I thought. The main difference about the two is that Hera fought for the greeks and aphrodite fought against the greeks. I really enjoy reading on greek mythology and have named both of my vehicles after goddesses because of this. My 02 Dodge Ram 1500 is named aphrodite because in my opinion the truck is quite an amazing eyesight. My 2000 honda accord Ex is named Athena after the goddess of wisdom,war and crafts, this is because athena is one of my favorite goddesses and as she was told to have begun her story coming out of zeus’s head with a full suit of armor the honda has one of the least corrosive types of metal making it like armor. Doing things such as reading things that are interesting is a nice get away and learning opportunity. The thing with having hobbies is that it is bad if they are more focused on than priorities. Like if you do something out of school that interests you, but you should be doing something else like getting a drivers license for transportation. That causes a problem because you could have a car that just sits and does nothing while you are doing less important things. Reading this has been fun and enjoyable i learned a little more than i already knew about greek mythology.

The first automobile came out in the 17th century. It was the first steam-powered automobile. The first was built by Nicolas-Joseph Cugnot in 1769. In the 19th century, the first internal combustion engine was with inventors and they called it the de Rivas engine and it was an early electric motor. Samuel Brown in 1826 tested the first industrially applied internal combustion engine. Then the engineers created the two-cycle and the four-cycle combustion engine and started to use gasoline as fuel. Production of the vehicles started appearing in 1887 when the petrol or gasoline-powered automobile made several identical copies and this was developed by Karl Benz
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_automobile

The best that I read was how the automobile started to come to life just the fact of how they started it. It was interesting how early they started to come out and how fast they started to get better. The Ford Model T was the first ever to be mass-produced by Ford Motor Company in 1908 and they used a moving assembly line. That the first engine was the steam-powered one that was built for Emperor Kangxi. He had this built as just a toy and other engineers put it to good work because they studied it and came out with the two and four-cycle engines.

That the Model T was one of the first massed produced automobiles on an assembly line. Even though the first engine was steam-powered it was crazy to read that it was just a toy for an Emperor just to mess around with. Also how crazy it is to see how the engine for cars just came through and got the way it is today. That is the 19th century they had innovations such as hand brakes and multi-speed transmissions and better steering developed. That a man on foot was waving a red flag and blowing a horn to let people know when to stop.

This topic interests me because I am a big gear head. I love cars and I wanted to learn how they became. That is awesome because now I know how everything started all because from a dude making an Emporer a steam-power toy and that other people worked off of that and made an actual engine and that Carl Benz started everything for car wise and the world would be different if he didn’t start that first steam engine. It would have been weird if that dude didn’t make that toy because nothing would have happened. Cars interest me because of the sound a good engineer makes.

This is useful just in the fact that it helped me learn where the first car came from. Also, help me understand what the first vehicle was made and how it was made on an assembly line. It also was a really good read just the fact that it went through about every century about the car and how they added new things. Also, it helps me understand how long automobiles have been around in this world. It all started in 1769 and that was awesome. It is nice to learn about what started everything and how it was made and it was nice to know who started it all.

I would recommend this to all car lovers because it is awesome to know how things got started. Also who is really interested in cars in general just the fact it tells you when things started and when something was implied. What I mean by being implied was when things got made and put into the car it is cool to look at when things got started just the fact that now you know when things were made. It is awesome to recommend this to someone that is curious about when things were made and when it all started and how it all began.

“Ferdinand Verbiest, a member of a Jesuit mission in China, built a steam-powered vehicle around 1672 as a toy for the Kangxi Emperor. It was small-scale and could not carry a driver but it was, quite possibly, the first working steam-powered vehicle (auto-mobile)” I chose these two sentences because it showed you that the first automobile was just a toy and for an emperor. He made this as a toy because he couldn’t get it big enough. “Innovations such as hand brakes, multi-speed transmissions, and better steering developed.” I chose this one because it shows you that in the 19th century they started making more stuff for the car so it would be safer and have more use for getting around faster.

4. Why does this interest you so much? Write 100+ words.
I've been a victim of assault and some other things, so it kinda pisses me off to have young men thinking that treating women and girls the way they do is normal and acceptable. I have seen others be taught that what we wear apparently gives them an open invitation to do what they want or say what they want without permission, that our bodies and choices aren't our own and should be hidden if we don't want to be called a tease or a slut. I find it interesting how many women give the same answer for the same reason and how much of our lives are circling around men's abilities to just freaking control themselves.
5. How is this useful to you? Write 100+ words.
IT MAKES ME HAVE A DIFFERENT OUTLOOK ON THE WORLD. It shows how much women live in fear and how we have gotten so used to being treated that way. It really does show me that we shouldn't be used to this behavior from me that much. And honestly, it's really daunting to look at and see how much women have compromised and given up as a result of men just not being able to control themselves. This is an extremely scary world and I don't want to have to tell a little girl she can't do or dress up or say anything that will call attention to her out of the fear that a man could hurt her. I can't imagine telling a child to not wear her favorite dress or shorts because it puts her at risk.

6. To whom would you recommend this? Why? Write 100+ words.
I would really like to recommend this to every woman and girl that does live and expresses themselves on social media and other platforms. I'd tell parents to read it and really think about the world around them. I think this because I believe the minute you tell your child that she or he can't wear something in the house around your boyfriend or husband or whoever then that's the minute you should really think that there is a whole different problem there and it's not clothing or the way they act but instead who you are letting in your life and theirs as well.
7. Type the three most interesting sentences word-for-word. Why did you choose these three? Include 100+ words.
“Mona: ‘No man on God’s earth is walking around living in fear that some woman is going to drag him behind a dumpster and rape him because his shorts were too short’”
This is just the tip of what women think of. “Jordy: ‘Walk around at night, walk around alone in general, wear whatever I want to, not panic every time I turn a corner”. Why are we letting this be normal and talking about it as if this is normal and something that we will just have to get used to instead of change? I refuse to let this be something that is talked about as normal.

!. What I done read was basically about photography and how to become an average photographer some would say some pointers on taking landscape photography which i like taking pictures but I find most of them are landscape type photography so I thought I should know some more “pointers” to become a better overall photographer then where I am currently at. Which I would say is definitely a beginner. I did have to start somewhere. It basically told me to become more aware of the background where I place the horizon making sure it is straight makes it a more satisfying photo all in all.
2. The best part was looking at the pictures since I get a visual on what they are trying to describe. Giving me ideas on what I would be able to do.
3. I learned that I am not aware enough of the foreground and the angle I am taking the photo is usually vertical and or horizontal. When I can be doing it at other angles to give the photo a different meaning or perspective of what the people are looking at. Something that looks average looks not so average when you see it from another point of view.
4. Like I know why I like photography my mom did it so it’s in the genes I do not know what to tell you. My sister liked it and so did my brother.
5. It isn’t useful if you said to pick something we’re into. I only had one other option besides this aight.
6. My sister wouldn't be reading the whole thing because she only uses her phone to take photos so there is no use reading it when it’s about changing camera settings and other things. I guess she could use some of them but not all of them.
7. Not possible, it wasn’t that interesting. I’m into photography that doesn’t mean I wanna read about it. I ain’t a fan of reading. zody

https://www.espn.com/racing/nascar/story/_/id/30867892/dale-earnhardt-death-daytona-500-revisiting-day-crash

I read about how Dale Earnheart got into a bad wreck which killed him. I read what his son talked about. He told the story of when they got to the hospital and it was not good news. Dale jr said that his dad Dale Senior was the best guy around. He knew all of the tricks and he had the best advice. Dale jr said that it was like he was a cheat sheet. Dale senior almost had a championship. They said that he cranked the wheel and which made him go up into the wall and that also destroyed his car and a couple of other cars were behind him. Once one car goes the rest of the [ack goes because they are going so fast like 200 mph, you can’t slam your brakes one like I can.
The best thing I would get out of this read would be that nobody knew how badly Dale Senior was. His friend Richard Childress said that he had a broken collarbone in Talladega and he had rushed back which made it hard for him to get to know the car again. It made it hard for him to steer. Dale had a broken bone in his neck at Atlanta which made him drive with one arm in 1999. Dale thought about quitting and his friend that helped him with his cars and which got him back into racing. Richard said it was not Dale that was the problem, it was the cars. Richard said he was going to get them fixed and he did.
I learned that you have to be careful when you're in a racecar because you could get seriously hurt or killed. I learned that if you have family and friends that will be there for you, you don’t have to worry as much. If you have the right gear you will be safe. Back then they were safe and had better protection than today. Somehow Dale still died. I think that he died because of how he got tossed around, you have a five point harness but you have to keep it a little lose so you can breath and I think that may have been the issue. Nascar is pretty different from what I race and we don’t have as many cars as Nascar does, but we can crash like they do.

This interests me a lot because I still wonder how Dale passed away. It interests me because I am a race car driver myself and I want to know how they survive certain situations and what equipment they had back then. I am sure that they had the same as we do now just not as good maybe. This interests me because I can find a better way of protecting myself and how I can become friends with people that love the same sport as me. This interests me because I like to know how they drive and how they shift the six speed cars. I have a five speed but I only use three speeds.
This is useful for me because I am a racecar driver and I would like to know how they use their things back then and how they stayed safe. This would help me so I know how to shift better. This could show me what kind of equipment to use and how to use it. It shows me how to drive a six speed and make me a better driver. I know that these guys are faster than my car but it coils teach me how to shift faster. It could show me how to move out of people's way faster and prevent a bigger wreck or it could show me how to make a bigger wreck.
I would recommend this to every racecar driver out there because it shows so much stuff that we could learn from. Especially the people that are racing for the first time they could use some advice and this could possibly help them out. It could show them the do’s and the don’ts. They can go off of this to get a bigger and better pit crew and better friends. Maybe it could help them with how to fix the car if they broke something. This could help anyone that is into racing. They could get some advice from Dale jr on how he felt when his dad passed and how he has to do the racing on his own now.
only to find the seven-time champion slumped over in his seat and the cockpit covered in blood.
He got so excited that he leapt out of his seat. "I'm a lucky man. I've got it all!"
That's when Earnhardt, asked if he would wear a HANS device, had groused, "I ain't wearing that damn noose."
I Chose these three sentences because they stuck out to me the most. They stuck out because they relate to now and how we race. I picked the first one because it got into my heart and I would not want to be that person to go over to a car that rolled and the person was laying there dead in it. I would not be able to do that. I would break down instantly. I picked the second one because I get excited sometimes too and it just applies to me and my family and friends. I picked the last one because it relates to now and what we wear in our cars. If the people back then had hans and stuff to protect their necks and everything Dale would probably still be here today.

Something that I enjoy is soccer and my friend. Soccer brings friends and family together to see soccer. Without my family and friends, I am nothing and I can not do anything without them. They are the ones who help me and support me in hard times. They are the one's friends who make me laugh and forget sad things in my life that happen. Without my friends, I don't know how I spend my time. They are the one that time go fast and my life goes fun without them. I don’t know how I spend my time. My Family is important to me, they are the one who cares about me.

When I was in 5th grade I read this book called max power the book is about a kid who finds a dirt bike in a lake he takes it home rebuilds in and starts racing end ends up being one of the best races in the world I like this book because it shows how the kid has to overcome obstacles to get to where he wants to be I also like how he has to work for everything he has he didn't get to just come home one day and have something he wanted.
.Why does this book interest me so much well when I was younger I was so crazy about riding dirt bikes that's all I wanted to do so every time I say saw something with dirt on it I had to have it the book was a lot easier to read because I had so much intrusted in it I think it's super cool how they put the bike together peace by Pisces instead of buying everything at once it shows hard work and passionate something I can relate to every time I needed a part I would work for my grandma I would mow the lawn and stuff like that Meier. What is the best thing I read in the book I think my favorite thing is when he finds the bike in the water the story of finding it is just so cool like what is the chance that a dirt bike just falls off a boat years ago and you happen to just stumble upon it like what are the odds I wanna know how the bike isn't just comply destroyed form water damage or rusted-out but I heard some times water can preserve mutuals, Meier
…...How I this book useful to me I feel like the book inspired me and that people do have good luck it showed me that you have to work hard to get what you want every part on the bike the kid needed he had to work of he was able to have mommy and daddy right a check to pay for everything he worked hard at riding to get faster so he could be a champion overcame all challenges to become one of the best I would recommend this book to anyone with a passion. passion can make people do wonderful things when you're at a job you gotta wanna do that job and when you wanna do it you'll do it better and accomplish more for me I really connected with this book because of the kids love for racing that can't just come from nowhere it comes for the inside Meier

I read about how Sioux falls thunder FC is about to start and it is a semi-pro soccer team in Sioux falls that I will be playing for. This is the biggest opportunity for me to become a semi-pro maybe pro athlete someday. I would recommend this to anyone that is interested in playing soccer because it is a great way to improve your technical abilities and to improve as an athlete. The best thing I read about it would have to be we want the best athletes we can find and we want a team that is able to play at the speed we do and I'm thinking to myself, that's me they're talking about because one I got an email from the head coach saying that I've been accepted to the roster and when I found out my stomach dropped so much I was so excited for the chance to be playing as a semi-pro athlete.

The story I chose to read about was the stonewall riots https://www.history.com/topics/gay-rights/the-stonewall-riots I chose to read about how in the 60's it was illegal to be any part of the LGBT. LGBT people gathered to Gay bars because they were a refugee where they could be themselves. but liquor authority shut down quickly. in 1966 members of The Mattachine Society, an organization dedicated to gay rights had staged a sip ins where LGBT openly come out in taverns and suing the ones that turned them away. June 28th was when police entered the stonewall inn and onlookers came out to watch as people were dragged into vans and being treated wrongly. what I read that I thought was the best is when The LGBT community finally started standing up for themselves trying to earn their freedoms and to be Equal with the straights. IT upsets me how The white straight man has all the power And it takes a trans woman of color to start a riot and to start getting us the freedoms that we deserve. I learned that it takes only a few people to change things for the better and that we should step up and be the better person and treat other people with respect, Pride, and treat them as of how you want to be treated. This is useful to me because it teaches me how Everyone is not supposedly created equal because if you are not who someone thinks you are or believe what they believe then you are the one who is in the wrong and you should be punished for it. I recommend this to people who want to better understand problems that other people are faced with, why people are scared to come out, and why they act the way they act. "Fed up with constant police harassment and social discrimination, angry patrons and neighborhood residents hung around outside of the bar rather than disperse, becoming increasingly agitated as the events unfolded and people were aggressively manhandled. At one point, an officer hit a lesbian over the head as he forced her into the police van— she shouted to onlookers to act, inciting the crowd to begin to throw pennies, bottles, cobblestones, and other objects at the police." I chose this little section because this what I believe should happen because those people are trying to express themselves and to be happy. But the government and the people don't see it as an issue until what happened on June 28th, 1969

1. I read about how Babe Ruth became one of the best baseball players to ever play the sport. it talked about as a child he always got into trouble and always made bad choices like stealing and drinking, chewing tobacco, and taunting the police officers.
2. When he was 15 he had shown his power for hitting and throwing power. At the age of 15, he got the attention of a minor league owner Jack Dunn. He later got signed to the Boston Red Sox and Dunn saw potential. Because of legal reasons, Dunn had to be Ruth's legal guardian and his teammates called him "Dunn's new babe" and that name stuck.
3. I learned about Ruth's terrible childhood and how he was given a chance and he chooses baseball out of every other sport. Dunn gave Ruth hope and Ruth took that chance and became the best baseball player in history.
4.This interested me because I'm a huge fan of baseball and I played it my whole life. It was between Mickey Mantle and Babe Ruth for who I was gonna write about and I choose Babe Ruth. Just learning about the greats for baseball is amazing because then I can share with others about these players.
5. This is useful because I can tell other people about Babe Ruth and Mickey Mantle if they haven't heard about them but mostly everyone had heard about these players. I can also talk to other baseball players or friends and have conversations with them.
6. I would recommend this to younger baseball players or future baseball players or people that are fans of baseball because there is a lot to learn about these amazing players and how they changed or impacted the sport.

1. So in 2020, Aston Martin has come out with the new 2021 F1 race car the AMR 21 they have upgraded the suspensions on what Mercedes has provided for them and has a new team that has joined them from the Ferrari team.
2. This is the fact that they came out with a new F1 race car and that they are confident that they will beat Ferrari on their home track.
3. That they will still be supplied by Mercedes but most of the body frames and the controls will be made by the Aston Martin team.
4. Racecar and the car, in general, has always been an interest like Aston Martin they come out with new car design, engines, and transmissions. There are just a lot of things that they do that I wish that I could do.
5. Just so I can be updated on how they are doing and see if they can win the next race event or not.
6. I would recommend this to the people who also want Aston Martin to win.
7. 1" That's been a big focus. We've changed the rear of the car now to the 2020 suspension as supplied by Mercedes.
2 “If we can start with that car performance where we left off, but do a better job scoring points more regularly, and be a more consistent points scorer, I think that would be a success for us."
3" The main drive in performance is aerodynamics, so there's obviously a big push on the aerodynamic side,"
The reason that I chose those three that they are showing that they have a plan in mind

What I read was “What are Black Holes?” which is an article from NASA’s website.
The article explains exactly what black holes are and how they work. They are a place where gravity is so strong, nothing can escape its pull, including light. With the fact that it pulls in light, they are almost invisible, so it takes special tools to find them. Black Holes are very dense and have a lot of mass, even one just the size of an atom would have the mass of a large mountain. Some black holes have the mass of millions of suns. Black holes are caused by a large star collapsing, which causes a supernova and leaves behind a black hole.
The best about what I read was that even if a black hole with the same mass as the sun replaced the sun, nothing would get pulled into it because it would still have the same gravity. Another thing is that scientists find black holes by seeing how the gravity affects gas and stars nearby them. These things stick out to me because with the black hole replacing the sun, you’d expect the Earth and other celestial bodies to get pulled in, but everything stays in motion and relatively the same, other than the lack of light. It also amazes me that scientists find them through their gravity, which I can only imagine is extremely difficult.
I learned about the theory that supermassive black holes were made around the same time as the galaxy they are in. I also learned about how scientists find black holes, which I explained in the last segment. I also learned that there’s another kind of black hole called a stellar black hole, which can be up to 20 times the mass of the sun.
This interests me so much because ever since I was really young I was fascinated by space and the universe. I eventually grew really interested in black holes, and they became one of my favorite things to study and read about. They interest me so much because they seem so unreal, it’s hard to imagine something like a black hole existing in reality, but it does. So because of that, I’m always intrigued to read and learn more about them.
This could be useful to me because I’ve thought about pursuing a career in some form of astronomy or at least studying astronomy in the future. Not only that, but articles like this fuel my interest and make me want to read and learn more about these things.
I would likely recommend this to my dad, cause like me, he is also interested in astronomy. I always see him watching documentaries and shows about space. Some of those documentaries involve black holes, so I’m sure he would appreciate the article.
“A black hole is a place in space where gravity pulls so much that even light can not get out.” I chose this sentence because that’s one of the things I find so amazing about black holes. It’s a surreal thought that black holes even pull in light, and it’s hard to even imagine it.
“Scientists think the smallest black holes are as small as just one atom.” I chose this sentence because that makes me wonder how exactly these specific black holes formed because no star could collapse down to that size.
“It has a mass equal to about 4 million suns and would fit inside a very large ball that could hold a few million Earths.” I chose this sentence because it really just visualizes how big some black holes can get. This black hole is large enough that if it replaced the sun, it would go out to Mercury’s orbit.

Music is a major part of my life and people’s lives, it brings people together, it helps me get through the day, and it symbolizes something that is dear to me. That is why I would want to create something that people will listen to. I know I have to work hard and spend a lot of hours on creating something that would be a masterpiece. I listen to all kinds of genres of music and learned that they all have something in common. They have a rhythm, a good melody, and it all out Cathay and easy to remember. If you have all of these in your music you might just be the next big thing. In the future when I have enough money saved, I would want to learn and play instruments. So I can make my own sounds and beats that I know would fit me. Right now I am learning how to play the piano. I Kind of know where the cords are and know how to play some songs. I also have an acoustic guitar at home to but it will take more time and effort to learn than the piano. I would also like to learn more about music theory. Music theory is a deeper understanding of music. It’s like a book that guides you. It helps you learn more about what sounds good and what does not. You don’t need to know music theory to help you make music but it will help you be more aware of what you should do to make it sound good. Learning music theory will be so useful to me because I would know more and it will let me be more creative. This music producing and writing interests me a lot because that is the only thing I can see myself successfully being good at. I would recommend people to learn about music theory if they are getting into music production because it will help them find things and cords they need to make it sound good.
