Blog No 6; setback to a comeback!
My room recently caught on fire and I lost basically everything. For a long time nothing happened with getting my room back or any of my stuff. Everyday a guy comes and works on my room and in the past few days its started to look much nicer than before the fire. I get new light fixtures and brand new windows which I desperately needed because the ones before were from like 1970 and I had to prop them open with pieces of wood. Also I get brand new carpet which I also needed because the carpet before was also very old and poorly laid down. So I guess this is a good example of a sort of comeback.

About My School
First thing is first is about the teachers… many of them seem to be just fine but as soon as you do one of the smallest things they will get extremely angry and spit in your face. Just kidding but they are very easy to anger and it would be a force no one would want to recon with. Something else very bad about the school is that we are about a half an hour in the country from any major city so it takes forever to get here. Besides that the meals aren’t too bad but they aren’t too great either but I won’t complain

Blog No. 10 great employee!
When I start to look for a steady paying job besides my current job working for bill horn and mowing yards in the summer time, I want to try to find my own job and I would pretty much just apply for a place that requires physical labor instead of mental work. I would just have to say that I was about 7 foot 250 pounds with the ability to lift 500 pounds with one arm. I would say that I was able to work about 9 hours a day and I couldn’t work at night. If that didn’t work then I would just have to do so some begging and pleading and hope that I would be accepted…

Blog No. 16 Farewell freshmen year!
Farewell freshmen year! I have been waiting for the end of this year since about mid year… from the middle of the school year where we all transitioned between classes it seemed like we were starting the year all over again with new teachers and everything and no one had any clue where their classes were for sure. From the middle of the year on things began to get dull although I met a lot of new people that I had seen before but had never talked to. After working Ur butt off for so long, it’s hard to have everyday be a good day… things get old and people do too and things just seem to get so boring no matter what new things happen on the weekends… everytime u go back to school it seems like its back to the same ‘OL

Entry No.13 My bedroom
If someone was to walk into my room they would first of all notice that I really enjoy music because of the 3 foot high stack of burnt cd’s and the huge system of a down wall hanging that is right over my computer. My bedroom is pretty much nice and tidy besides some of the time I don’t clean up my pop cans and they have stacked up over time. If someone were to get onto my computer they could see that I was really into music because of the 3000 songs alone just from me on my hardrive. Besides my computer I have a ps2 and a game cube and a TV. but they aren’t as important to me as my computer is. Besides all the inanimate objects my cat also sometimes hangs out in my room and lays in my window…

Blog Entry No.11 Cats or Dogs???
I think that everyone should have an animal that relates to their own personality. In fact sometimes I think about what animals would fit a person the best. If I had to choose an animal for myself then I would have to be a cat just for the simple reason that they are more of the loner type and that’s the way I seem to act most of the time. Dogs can be pretty annoying sometimes just because of how they bark and I just find it a little bit irritating. Cats don’t bark or jump up on your legs, they just stick around for a short amount of time then when they know they aren’t wanted anymore they finally hit the road for hours at a time then they come back. One other reason why cats are better is because they require very little responsibility to take care of… they don’t nearly as much as a dog and the only thing extra you do with a cat is clean out their litter box

Blog Entry No. 9, my spring break
Over my spring break I didn’t seem to have all that much fun… I went with my mom and we went to my grandma and grandpa’s house for like 4 days and had nothing to do but get on a super slow computer. After the time I was there my mom and I went to my Aunts house and stayed a few nights and it was barely a step up from my grandma’s house. For the remaining days my mom and I went to my sisters house’s and hung out and visited with them for the day then returned back to my Aunts to sleep. Then on the last weekend before spring break I finally got to stay the night with my sister and her boyfriend and we watched Hitman but I passed out at like 3 in the morning so I don’t remember a thing about it L

Blog NO. 8, My own prompt
Usually I fall asleep fairly late and end up waking up at about 7 o’clock the next morning. I first wake up when my dad yells and says its time to get ready… several minutes later I finally drag myself out of bed and stumble around eyes half open to my doorway and “try” to walk down my staircase. Several bumps and scrapes later I finally appear at the bottom of my stairs and walk straight to the bathroom and take a shower. After about 10 minutes has passed I finally turn off the water and climb out slightly more awake than the 10 minutes before. Usually by about this time I feel so tired that I can’t even walk so I sit down at my dinning room table for a few minutes then head upstairs to get dressed. Once again I arrive at the bottom of the stairs and walk into the bathroom once more to brush my hair and to brush my teeth and put some deodorant on. By this time it’s almost 7:55 and the bus leaves at that exact time, so my dad and I are rushing around to get me to the bus as its turning around the corner…

Blog No. 7 Stranded
If I were stranded on the top of a mountain and I got separated from my friends I would probably search for them for hours upon hours until it was so dark that I couldn’t see, then crash out near a tree because of exhaustion . The next day I would rise and try to go looking for my friends once again yelling until I couldn’t anymore. Shortly after all of that I would try and gather as many wet leaves and things like that on top of dry wood to make a large amount of smoke so that anyone from mile around could spot me easily. I would use the already started fire to create another fire and when it begins to burn more steadily I would dump small amounts of water on the flame to get a big bunch of smoke up into the air.
While the fire is burning I would go into the more dense area and try to find some sort of large stick to possibly sneak up on a small animal and club it across the head. For a second backup plan of means of food, I would try to find some small logs long enough to trap some freshwater fish that inhabited the small stream near my camp. As soon as a fish would go into the trap I would knock the logs over rendering the fish helpless in the water. Besides all of this I would just try to keep safe from big animals and crazy hillbillies.

Blog No. 6, 5 senses...
If I had to lose one of my 5 senses I would have to choose to lose my sense of smell, because it would be the least out of all 5 things that would affect me most. Without my sense of smell I could eat anything that I wanted without being totally disgusted, which could lead to a healthier body because I would eat all of the healthy foods all the time. There could also be a lot of downsides to this as well as good thing though. For one u could never again have the pleasure of being able to taste a nice steak ever again. Besides that u could never tell what u were eating so u could eat anything you wanted just as long as you didn’t get grossed out by the look of it. Having no taste would have to be better than having smell because you could smell terrible and have no friends and not even be aware of why no one likes you. And of course for obvious reasons it’s not as bad as being blind or being deaf because those would impact your life majorly. Overall this would be the easiest thing to lose because it’s the least important.

Blog No.5 In the attic
If I went in my grandparent’s attic, and found a chest, I would want to look for old items of my dad’s because he doesn’t seem to have anything from earlier parts in his life because my grandma has always kept them locked up in her attic. I would like to just see all of the things that he had when he was my age and just see the different things that he used to like that he cant remember anything about so long ago.
Of course we have all heard the old stories that our grandparents tell us, and they say they have pictures somewhere, but they just can’t seem to find them. I wish all of those stories were held inside of that chest so that one day I could look at them and find out exactly what they looked like as children. I would want to see all of their toys and games that they played and compare them to my life and see just how hard it was for them growing up and finally prove that school today is so much harder than it was then, and that I probably had more education in 8th grade than they did in their entire high school career.

Entry No. 4
Gender Gap…
If I could banish one stereotype about men it would have to be the ability for many of us to listen when someone is talking to them! It really annoys me when I’m trying to talk to one of my friends and they just can’t seem to pay attention to what I’m trying to ask them… then when they do usually listen even if they didn’t know what you were telling them they will say that they already knew. Besides that when a teacher or parent asks us to do something sometimes we don’t do what they say or make jokes or back talk more than girls do. Because of the inability for us guys to listen once in awhile sometimes guys will tell their girlfriend something but not their best friend that have been friends with them their entire life. Something else that really bothers me is when another guy will walk up to you and punch you as hard as he can just to show off his “Machoness”, it really makes me mad and when I already have a short fuse because of other things that happened that day I really feel mad when it happens… guys are good to hang out with but when it comes to feelings mostly all of them have no idea about what it is…just be more observant.....

Being a super hero would be amazing. I would want to be like the green lantern because he’s the ultimate super hero. Nothing beats being able to go into space without a space suit and just fly around for hours. Secondly he has incredible strength nearly comparing to superman himself. The overall best part about having the green lanterns powers would be his ability to make force fields and shields with the sleight of his hand that carried the ring that gave me my powers. I could save the lives of many without even trying to, but just by simply raising my hand and casting force fields around them. Rockslides, tornados, and hurricanes, I could save all the people that are about to be torn to pieces by these vicious storms. A simple car crash could be avoided because of my ring. It would be very useful to save people in a burning building because I could simply send my force field around them and then bring them out slowly without any risks of another life put top risk to save that one person. Not only would I want the power to help other people but to help myself. I could send my force field into my room to clean it up while I was relaxing on the coach watching some T.V. I could just fly around instead of walking so I would never tire out and I would be one amazing basketball player!!! Yep being a super hero would be absolutely amazing.

Entry No. 2 Time Travel
If I had a choice to travel to any part of the world I would first pick, I would choose medieval England. I really find that era very interesting because of the knights, armor, and horses. I always thought that stuff like that was cool, although living in that time, you would suffer many hardships.
The next best place to travel would be to the late eighteenth century where Thomas Jefferson signed the Declaration of Independence. I would praise them and tell them of the world that is “to be” and all the Accomplishments that others after them had achieved because of a simple signature. But then again this could alter all we know today.
One other place I thought it would be cool would to be able to go back to my parents childhoods and see how hard their lives were as a kid so that I could bring that up when it comes to my life. Also I could stop them from doing some of the things that they regret. Many times they say that it would make their lives better and I’d like to have that happen.
Another Dream of mine would be able to visit Brazil. The grassy tree filled hills are glorious to look at. I would get to the highest mountain and look out into the sea with the sun setting very slowly. I watch the dolphins jump out of the water with a splash, just a speck to my eyes from such a far distance.
Entry No. 1 Welcome to my blog
Welcome to my blog
Hi, I’m Dylan Adkins. I will be making my blog until the end of the 2nd semester for English 1. I am a freshman at Olympia High School. A new blog of mine will be posted every Monday.
Things for me have been much harder in high school, simply because the work is much harder and I was a slacker during my whole middle school years. I have a cat named ebony and she weighs about 16 pounds. I usually like to hang out with my friends on days after school and I always end up putting my homework off until late that night. A few of my good friends are Tristen Embery, Nic Harris, and Mitchell Howard.
I enjoy getting tons of exercise any way possible. My favorite sports are football and basketball. I love to listen to music and I notice musical talent, and my genres of music I like to listen to vary from Beethoven to Cradle of Filth. Another hobby of mine is playing Runescape. Hommer201 hit me up :p
