Well today we get out for thanksgiving break, I am so happy because my family and I might go to Chicago. I am also happy because this means that I have time to do things that are really important to me like work on music and help my family out. If I have a really good attitude then i will get a cell phone by Friday morning so i have to try to have a good attitude.

Bradley thinks the spotlight SHUT UP!!!

Bradley is freewriting once again. Yesterday, someone tried to guess my name and the first name they said was Frank. After telling them my name wasn't Frank I told them my name was Bradley and they just couldn't believe it! Appearently, I look so much like a "Frank", that having a name like Bradley is unbeleivable! When I told a friend about it, they even said I look like a "Frank"! Once I got home, I got a blue and white t- shirt that I haven't worn yet and wrote FRANK. I am wearing it today.

Gabbi Renee's journal :)

So tomorrrow we FINALLY get to have a break from school. I've waited long enough. I can't wait for our first snow...i just hope it's not while im sitting at the UK game Saturday. I hope it can wait. I hope im able to walk after eating all this food. Last game of the season should be nice. Even though its a highly emotional time for every fan in the stadium and the players who represent us out on the field. All the accomplishments play over like a film in your mind and you can't help but smile..and sometimes even shed a tear. Thats all for now! Go wildcats!

I'm pretty excited for Thanksgiving! We have a week of school left from today. All of my family from Illinois and Iowa fly in. It's the only time besides Christmas that we are ALL united together. We all hug each other and give compliments on how much we've changed. It's always a blast when were all together. We begin with a family prayer where everyone says what they are most thankful for. All of us then eat until we know we will bust if we eat anymore :) Maybe it'll snow? Can't wait for Christmas!

Thanksgiving Article

Thanksgiving is a time for people all across the United States to give thanks. They celebrate with parades, lots of food, and spending time with their friends and family. The tradition began several years ago with the pilgrims and their search for freedom. They landed on Plymouth Rock. Their special friends the Native Americans helped them to plant crops and taught them the way to survive with pretty much nothing. They had a huge feast together to celebrate. Now we all tell what we are thankful for and have a meal with the people that we love. This holiday has changed so much.

This weekend is a big one for sports in the Bluegrass. Kentucky basketball cats take on John Calipari's alma mater Clarion. Can't wait to see that game! Im sure it'll be another Campbellsville game. Saturday, we play EKU. If Kentucky's defense doesn't step up there game, our season may possibly be out of the stadium and down the drain. We've got so much to prove, and only 4 quarters to prove it in. I'm pretty pumped though! Hope I have good tailgating food :) GO BIG BLUE!

The spotlight is annoying Bradley

My favorite movie in the whole world is Reservoir Dogs. IT'S THE BEST MOVIE EVER!!!!! For a movie that is mostly dialogue, it is a very good movie. I give this movie two thumbs up.

Bradley and the spotlight are freinds now

I really hurt my shin.

TURTLE!!! :)

Bradley isn't mad at the spotlight any more

I'm still very bored but maybe something exciting will happen soon. It is now 11:45. Nothing has happend yet but hopefuly something will happen soon. It is now 11:46. I have lost all hope of anything remotely interesting happening and have decided to end this blog.

My book is Thick
Somebody is accused of killing some in cold blood
Without a Trace
Confession is the great struggle of most men
Its something we all must stare in the face

It stops our worlds from turning at one point in time
This book is great so far

Sunday i slept all day...
And that's about it for my weekend...
Peace :)

Free Writing Keeps The World Turning (Greg)

I don't know what to write so I am gonna tell you about the wonderful Sunday I had. It started out OK. I got a good breakfast. Then I got called into work early. Which was OK because it was a Sunday which means business is slow. Being called in early means more money for me. Then I got asked to stay late, which also means more money. But when about 7:30 rolled around a "friend" of mine decided that he wanted to snort 2 10 milligram Oxycodones. This really messed with my head just due to the fact that drugs have had a very negative impact on my life. I was filled with an almost uncontrollable rage. I couldn't control myself I asked my manager to talk to me so I wouldn't lose what little bit of cool I actually had left. I finally said that I needed to go home and I got sent home but I didn't lose out on any hours I actually got an hour and a half overtime. So that was my lovely Sunday.

Blood Brothers Bookjacket

Blood Brothers is an extraordinary story of heartwarming friendship and brotherly love. Clay and Joey are almost inseparable. Clay is the moiety of Joey; two peas in a pod. They have opposite lifestyles but still seem to be an honest example of best friends forever. Clay- no money , broken family, and enormous dreams of growing up and saving lives. Joey- loaded to say the least, popular, and what seems to be everything. The bright future soon comes to an end for one. Drugs from an unknown source send Joey into a drastic coma. Clay will fight and take extreme, outrageous measures to find the source of evil. He wont be obsequious; he will do whatever it takes. He will be acumen; he has to be for closure, for his friendship with his best friend for 10 years. What will come of this dramatic situation? Read along as the author tries to inculcate a real life lesson through a heart wrenching story.

RRAAAAAAAAAWWWR!! BRADLEY CRUSH SPOTLIGHT!!!!!

Im freewriting again today and i have decided to write about my second favorite passtime... VIDEOGAMES!!!!!!!!!!! I love playing videogames. I have been a videogame nerd all my life. My favorite type of videogames are wrestling videogames ( big surprise). But, before I got into Wrestling I played street-fighting games. My favorite ones were "Sreet-Fighter" and "Tekken". One of the things I liked most were their cartoonish storylines. Videogames used to be my favorite thing in the world but now it has been replaced by the best thing in the world... WRESTLING!!!!!

SPOTLIGHT MAKE BRADLEY ANGRY!!!

Bradley's poem

Roses are red,

Violets are blue,

Family Guy is hilarious,

and southpark is too.

I'm not very good at writing poems,

Not very good at all,

when it comes to writing poems,

I'm as creative as a brick wall.

Greg's Poem

Peace In Pieces

The Peace Fell To The Ground & Shatters

As Shiny Lead Falls To The Dirt With Loud Clatters

Men & Women Scream

Is This All One Bad Dream

Is It Some Horrific Nightmare

My Thoughts Are You Gotta Get Outta Here

The Blasts Blow On

As The Peace Goes Farther & Farther Gone

And The Assassin Fled

As The Yin Yang Bled

Can Our Peace We Revive

Will Harmony And Love Stay Alive

If Peace Falls

Will Hope Leave Us All

NICOLE'S POEM!!!

Nicole && Kristyn's in the spotlight! BAM!!!

Today is free write!!! We are sitting here in the computer lab eating goldfishes!!! We are the BOMB!!!... It's only Nicole, Kristyn and Bradley here in our group today... What fun!

Bradley HATES being in the spotlight!

There have been many times I thought I was going to die, but the most terrifying was my first Court Day. I was 4 years old when my mom finally let me go to Court Day and I was excited to be going. On the sunday of Court Day weekend me, my mom, my sister, and her friend all went to the Chinese restaraunt after church to celebrate my sister's friend's birthday. When we left I decided to take some chopsticks with me. The next day my mom took me to Court Day and I bought just about everything I saw. On our way home I found the chopsticks in the car and continued to pay with them. We got home and I was so excited to play with my new toys that I bolted up the front porch stairs. I forgot I had the copsticks in my hand and I tripped. When I hit the ground, a chopstick stabbed my eyelid and scraped down the side of my face. That day I learned a valuable lesson... DON'T RUN WITH SHARP OBJECTS.

Book Jacket 4 Unwind =]

If they can survive until their eighteenth birthday, they can't be harmed but when every piece of them, from their hands to their hearts, are wanted by a world gone mad.

Bradley doesn't like being in the spotlight

Today we were told to free write, so I decided to write about one of the things I love the most... PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING! Coming from me, that may sound wierd but that is one of my true passions. Right now I do some backyard wrestling but someday I hope to become a proffesional wrestler. I intend to do this by hiring a local wrestler to train me when i turn 18. I'll go to some of the local wrestling companies and see if they will hire me and try to get some more experience. After that I'll try and get into the OVW. Many of the wrestlers in the WWE got their big break in OVW and I hope to get mine there as well.

Greg Is Back In The Spotlight

The biggest crowd I've ever been in was this past year at The Gathering there were 150,000 people jam packed in one arena. The Gathering is a massive two day concert it features bands like Insane Clown Posse Twiztid Boondox A.B.K. Dark Lotus Hatchet House Psychopathic Rydas Jumpsteady Nate The Mack Blaze Yo Dead Homie and before his death ODB It is one place where 150,000 JUGGALOS can be together as one big family. I love the concert

Nicoles in the Bloglight! cycle 3 (: I Love My "Big Green Tractor!!"

Country music would have to be one of my favorite things to listen to... Brad Paisley is my hero, hes gorgeous... A lot of the music soothes me when im angry or upset... A lot of people don't care for it and thats cool... Country music is simply amazing!!!

Kristyn is blinded by the spotlight and is now dimming the lights:) Cycle Tres!

I think of country music as a excuse for me to throw things because of the fact that all country music artists sing about is how their dog died and their wife took their truck. No offense to anyone out there reading this who enjoys this noise which makes my ears bleed. But any who i have nothing else to say about country music without getting too in detail:)

Gabbis In The Bloglight! Cycle 3 (:

The Largest Crowd I've ever been in was just this past weekend. I've never been amongst so many people in my life, or at least that's the way it felt. The number of people that entered the park was a remarkable 71,988. When I heard the announcer release the number, I wasn't at all surprised. The stadium wasn't quite large enough to comfortably accommodate that many people. There were people standing up in the aisles, and even people sitting on one anothers laps to make more room. The weather was humid as well, and being with 71,987 people make it feel like a sauna. There wasn't an empty seats in the Cat's house, literally. GO BLUE! :)

"Live Like you were Dying."

The Colomber
Stefano lived as if he were dying, and he ended up dying. He was constantly reminded of how curious he was about what was going on at sea. He never let himself settle for no answer. He took the risk and approached it. They always have said curiousity killed the cat. He lived as if he had no fear about what the shark would do.

The Contents of the Dead Mans Pocket
Tom Benecke always put his work first. He had so much more to cherish than a promotion. When Tom almost died upon the ledge, he realized there is so much more in life to live for. He had a wife that he really loved, and she seemed to be the overbearing strength he exerted while on the ledge. He had to get his priorities straight before he lost it all. There is so much more to life than money and rank. He made a decision to go out on the ledge, which could've caused death. He lived like he was dying, like his tomorrow was a gift and it was up to him to decide what you would do with it...What would you do with it?

Kristyn Doesn't Need A Spotlight She Has A Flashlight:) Cycle Dos!

Traitors Never Play Hangman By Bring Me The Horizon:)

This is what the edge of your seat was made for. Holding on. Nothing to lose. And this is what the back of your hand was made for. Stolen apologies. You're a traitor to my heart. You're a traitor to us all. For saken.This over indulgence of consciousness has torn a day apart, And lingered in the splendeaour of the feeling in my stomach. Trailing down the shadow of cupped hands Covering my face away from the need to talk to my miscalculation.Were all movie stars! x3 And I'm speaking these words. And I'm talking to the mirror. You're a traitor to my heart. You're a traitor to us f****** all. And I don't want to kiss anyone but you. I F****** love you.

Nicole's In The Spotlight!!!

When we came back to school the first week was really hectic... The hallways were a total mess to me... I wasn't really use to being with all of the upper classmen... At lunch it was hard to find places to eat until they started letting us eat outside... As the year goes on it has become easier to get to class and lunch.

Greg Stole The Spotlight WAHOO!!!!

My favorite childhood memory is the Christmas that I got my first guitar. It was a Crate guitar players pack. It had a guitar, a strap, 5 guitar picks, and an amplifier. As soon as I opened it i plugged it up and immediatly started to try to play. But... when i first started i was completely terrible. I still own the guitar. I still play it as loud as possible. But now I am quite a bit better.

Kristyn's In The Spotlight Cycle Uno:)

If Kristyn was A color...She would be...umm....A neon color...I chose this color becasue I'm loud and in your face all the time. I'm a very colorful person, bright colors make my day! My nails are always painted neon colors or black. I own almost every clothing item in every color possible, yeah I'm an impulse shopper:)

Gabbi's in the spotlight! Cycle 1

My most embarrassing moment was just recently. We took a screening test in math to see what we already know. One parituclar question absolutely make me blush when i found out i missed! It was: "What would you measure degrees with?" We all know the obvious answer is a thermometer, but being too blonde got to me. I marked the letter choice that had the answer "ruler." Not only was this embarrassing to me personally, but I was REALLY embarassed when I found out I was the only one in the whole class that got it incorrect. I told my best friend sitting behind me about it, and she couldn't help but to laugh out loud. The teacher figured something was up with our mid-class random laughter! :)

"Adults"

The First Amendment, which was established by Congress in 1787, reveals and enforces our basic freddoms including speech, assembly, and press. Recently, some "adults" filed several irrational complaints about novels and materials we were reading. Not only have they taken one of our books in the process of us reading them, but SEVEN books have been taken out of our possession. We feel as if these thoughts expressed major violations of our rights, and we are outraged with out lack of option to take action.
First off, the reasons for pulling our books were unacceptable. They may contain sexual content, a very limited amount of curse words, and violence, but we ARE mature sophomores and juniors. We are supposed to be growing up and learning about things in life. We are exposed to this kind of nature everyday in society. It's nothing to us to hear an explicit word out on the streets. Why throw a fit and get your undies in a wad over a book that talks about EVERYDAY LIFE?
Secondly, Why purchase books these books in the first place? From experience, we enjoy reading these books. They catch out attention, and they have us absolutely hooked. The emotions that they unveil have us thrilled to continue on reading. These books are purchased for the library just to sit in there and not be read. When somebody feels the urge to read them, they decide to take them. We just cannot understand why.
Lastly, We feel as if the removal of our books takes away our last freedom left in school. We have no freedoms in school besides reading.We're trying to be students, and pursure reading. W can't exactly do that when are books are constantly removed.
So, you can see, We are extremely mad about our books being removed. All we hope for is our books being returned and for people to see the point we are really trying to get across.

Boot Camp Book Jacket

8-13-09


Could It Be intermingling and the intimate relationship between his teacher and himself? Could it be the fifty dollars he stole from his "cash money millionaire" parents? Could it be the pot he willingly smoked with his friends? Is he just following the rugged path of life that seems to be leading him nowhere? What in the world did Garrett do? The blue group is following Garrett Durrell, a teenager, as he faces the trials and tribulations to survive the inhumane treatment he receives from Lake Harmony Boot Camp. He seems to take the verbal and physical abuse from everyone there. EVERYONE. Joe, who is the "father" of his group, is especially terrible at humiliating him. He calls him unnecessary and inappropriate names, and gives higher level children such as Ron and Jon the oppurunity to physically mistreat him. He has to use the bathroom in front of everyone else. He has to run and exercise like a marine would every morning. The food here seems to be unpleasant. He misses Sabrina, the teacher, and he can't seem to understand why his parents would send him here. How could it get any worse?

On a positve note, Garrett has one possible friend, Pauly. Garrett may not be too fond on Pauly, but he may be his only hope to survive. Civilization is scare. Studying is the only thing close to a normal life of a teenager. He has to turn to something. Besides, Pauly needs a decent aquantance after taking torture as well. The older boys threaten to even take his life because hes "no good."
Pauly also has a friend by the name of Sarah. She has been here for an extended amount of time. They have an idea; maybe not the brightest. Running away? Isn't that a potential reason some of the kids are here in the first place? Garrett isn't sure; he must consider the possible consequences. His actions have gotten his this far; how much farther can they get him?

Could running to Canada be the best option? Can saying 'yes sir' and 'no sir' get him out of here the easy way? Will Garrett follow through with the plan of Sarah and Pauly? Can Garrett continue to handle all the nose bleeds and cuts, or does he find worth in this idea that could affect the rest of his life?
