I have read many books but I could honestly say one of my all time favorites would be The lightning thief. Mysterious things are happening in our world but we will never know but one hero is learning the truth and is our last hope. Rick Riordan's lightning thief amazed me with the action and danger around every turn.
When I read The Lightning Thief it showed me that anyone could be a hero. In Rick Riordan's book it states "your more than just a kid with dyslexia Percy, your a hero." The book is saying to me do not let anything hold you back from your destiny, we all have a place in this world but only you can find where your needed.
Percy Jackson was just an ordinary kid who was destined for great things. The lightning thief novel says "Mom why do we put up with this? Percy one day you will understand." Percy has no idea what she meant when she said that but his future every one will depend on him.
Rick Riordan, author of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, Imagines a world where everything is happening right before our eyes yet we do not see it. The book quotes " The mist makes mortals see what they can believe." Some people will never believe in something that they can never see and for that I feel bad for them.
If i were to rate this book i would give it five stars. I recommend everyone should read this book it is one of the best out there. This book could entertain you and help you learn.

What is your dream?
Every citizen in America has a dream some wish to be rich, others to be famous, and most just want a ordinary life style. The question is what is my American Dream? What is my perspective of success? my dream is to be that one man you could come to when you have no where else to go. What I am trying to say is I want to be a hero to those around me.
First of all, when I say hero I do not mean the ones such as Batman or Superman. I mean the every day heroes who stand up for what is right and try to help there fellow citizens. Martin Luther King Jr. Is probaly the greatest example he saw the pain and devistation growing around him and decided to set out and not only change his community but change all of U.S.A. When I learned about Mr. King I thought to myself, heres a man who is not afraid to take a stand to our society. Martin Luther King was one of my inspirations growing up, he showed me to never give up on your dreams even if everyone around you is trying to destroy them.
Next, there are more heroes like him such as a fire fighter who risk there lifes for the people in need. In my American Dream my career choice would be an E.M.T. The reason why i choose this profession is because I want to be able to help ones in dire need. When I was seven years old, I remember my friend ate somthing he was allergic to and needed help then the abulance came in no time and helped my friend to the truck. I asked the man will he be ok? He turned to me and smiled and said, "I will have him back by recess". Ever since i met that paramedic, he inspired me to be a E.M.T.
In conclusion, my American Dream is to be a hero to my community and as well as my country. The every thing you do changes the future from helping a little boy to changing America forever. Now I ask you what is your American Dream?

bacteria
In this article i have come to learn why Bacteria can survive on caffine and why us humans are unable to live off of caffine.
The Article has said " Pseudomonas putida CBB5 can get all the calories and nutrients they need from caffine". It is interesting how even bacteria, germs and dirt, can do things that even humans are not able too.
The article also states "that human liver enzymes have the task of processing caffine and other drugs". No matter what we do we can never survive off of caffine because our bodies wont let us.
I can take responsibility for my learning by looking up different bacteria and see if they can survive on caffine.
Theres many different bacterias but my question is how many can survive on Caffine?

Flying sauser
In this Fox News report i have found out there was secrect records for a flying sauser program found in a warehouse.
For more information the Fox News report states "they found a document describing a secret program by the air force to build a flying sauser". This is incredible information and just imagining a flying sauser becoming a real source of transportation would be Amazing.
What would this Flying sauser look like? Well the Fox news Explains in their report " NDC is in the process of digitizing the whole document. This sauser had too take a lot of planning and design but why would they plan all of this just to Hide this design?
I can take resonsability for my learning by going on the Fox News website and looking at the virtual design they will make for space ship if the ship could of flew
These records of a flying document have been hidden for years and now have been recovered. So if the government has hidden this what else could they be hiding?

The Dark knight rises was a dark night for many. James Holmes Assulted many people that night and changed their lifes Forever. When James was asked in a court room why he did this he stated "it was a joke ". This man was a insane and had to have major problems for what he had done to those poor people at the Century 16 theater in Aurora, California.
James Holmes came into the theater with a black hoodie and red hair according to the woman who worked at the century 16 theater. Just by looking at this man you would probaly think he was different and not in a good way in my opinion.
At about 12:45 Police had apprehended James Holmes after the shootings Behind the theater next to his car filled with fire arms according to the police officer. This man obviosly was the one responsible for these murders and the worst part was he was doing this for a terrible prank.
Even though this man has been brought to justice we can never fix what he has been done. Ever since the shooting I am always concerned that it is not safe to take my little cousin to the movies.The world is scared that this event could happen again and might occur soon.

book review
Jason, Leo and Piper (3 fifteen year olds) find out that they're demigods (half god half mortal). Jason's the son of Zeus, god of the sky, Leo's the son of Hephaestus, god of fire and forges and Piper is the daughter of Aphrodite, goddess of love. Leo's mom died because of Gaia (the earth) and he's been an "orphan" on the run ever since. Piper's dad has been captured by a giant and he says that if she doesn't sacrifice Jason and Leo to him, he will kill her father. Piper eventually tells Jason and Leo this. Gaia has been asleep for ages but she is slowly awakening and bringing back the giants and the most terrifying monsters back from the underworld. Once Gaia is fully awake they will have no chance of stopping her and basically it will be the end of the world. The Lost Hero takes place all around the U.S.A. our young heroes go to places such as Chicago, Detriot, and Florida. When I read The Lost Hero im always satisfied with the book's twist and turns around every corner.The story makes me wish I was one of these amazing characters. My favorite character in this story would be Jason he is the one who holds the fate of the world in his hands. Jason is brave, fearless, and deah defying. this is wierd to say but when I read about Jason he reminds me of my brother Jesse He is always getting me out of trouble and being the hero.
