Key of Liberty assignment: Is family or country more important

Both matter to me. But if there were no families, there wouldn't be a country. In Key of Liberty, General Mussels told us about this one guy who chose to let his sons starve instead of taking his name of the Declaration of Independence. He thought that country is more important than family.

To me, family is most important. We want to protect our family. I know my dad would do anything to protect our family. So there is different opinions about this, but to me, family is most important.

Clone Wars

Clone Wars is a Computer-Animated movie. It takes place between episode 2 and 3. Anikin Skywalker gets a new apprentice named Asohka Tano. She is right next to Obi-Wan. The droids are hilarious. I was laughing my head off. This is one of the funny things. There are ships coming at 2 droids. One says, "There is ships coming, commander." The other one says, "Shoot them down." "But what if it's one of our own?" "I don't care, I am in charge here, and I said shoot them down!" And guess what? It goes into a TV series. It starts October 3. On the Pacman game, you go into a larger screen, and on the top, it has a Clone Wars thing.


This is the movie trailer.

You ahve to watch this movie. Until next time, bye!

History of Bionicle

Check out this Bionicle Movie! Click on the next line.



So what you see in that movie is the history of Bionicle. Well, the History of the toys. Well, Bionicle has these powerful beings called Great Beings. They created the whole Bionicle Universe. They had this Great Spirit named Mata Nui to be in charge of all living things. They created the first Toa of Water named Helryx. They built Metru Nui. They built Artahka and Karzahni. They made a special group called the Brotherhood of Makuta. They were supposed to do good withe Energized Protodermis, but they were scheming against Mata Nui. Then this one group of Toa was made. They are: (from left to right), Onua, Toa of Earth. Lewa, Toa of Air. Pohatu, Toa of Stone. Tahu, Toa of Fire. Kopaka, Toa of Ice. And Gali, Toa of Water. Their destiny is to awaken Mata Nui when he goes into slumber.

So after the movie is the Phantoka, (which is the Toa Mata), there is one part that wasn't in there. The Mistika. They went to look for the Keystones and the Mask of Life. They find all the keystones and meet with the Phantoka. They enter the Codrex with the Makuta behind them. We are waiting what happens to them.

So there is a history of Bionicle. Hope you liked the Movie! See you later.

Polar Star Assignments

Shakespeare:
My Hero:
One of my heroes is my dad. He loves to help me with scouts. Last year, he led our food drive because the food bank was running low on food. We brought them 951lbs. of food. They were so grateful.

He works every day to earn money for our family. If he didn't work, we would be homeless. We wouldn't have any food. We woulld be poor.

My dad makes the best choices for ou family. If he didn't, our house would be a mess, and our yard would never get done. I love my dad, and he loves me.

Key of Liberty:
Stubborn

My definition for stubborn is: To stick with an idea and stay with it.

Sometimes being stubborn is good and sometimes it is bad. If I was stubborn of not cleaning, I would be in trouble. People were stubborn in the Rvolutionary War. They stuck with their Declaration of Independence. If they didn't, We would probably be England territory. I am thankful for the Revolutionary War

The End

Polar Star

Polar Star is a home school class. It has 4 subjects: writing, science, Shakespeare, and Key of Liberty,(or Sword of Freedom). Writing class introduced me to this blog thing. It is cool. For science, we have these cool science experiments to do. For Shakespeare, (which is the funnest class ever), we need to read, watch, or listen to 17 plays. If we do that, we get crowned and groveled to. For Key of Liberty, we need to read these books, and we have these discussions. This week we have to come as a representative of a colony from the First Conntinental Congress. I got assigned Massachusetts.

Like Mr. Science Geek? Until next time, good bye!

Red



Red is my favorite color. I like red Bionicles, red school stuff, red almost everything! (Even the words are red. Wow!). This is Toa Inika Jaller. He is red. Usually, the red bionicles are the leaders.

Jaller turned into Toa Mahri and stayed that way. Red Bionicles are cool.
Other toa of fire, or red guys, are: Tahu, Vakama, lhikan, tahnok, cadok, Nuurahk, Votarak, Sidorak, Hakann, Kalmah, Antroz, Balta, Takua, Kapura, Nuuhri, Sarda, and Radiak. And I have almost all these guys.












Skittles is my favorite candy. The original package is red. I love red. I like all the flavors, except the chocolate mix one. Yuck. But now that I have braces, I can't have them. I will have healthier teeth though. That saying is cheesy. It is very colorful. I have a red backpack that is Bionicle.
That is my thoughts on red. Until next time, Bye!

Optical Illusions

Optical Illusions are weird. I am serious. I dont know why they do that, but they do. Tell me, is this a rabbit of a duck.



That is weird. Optical Illusions are a trick of the eye. There are tons of them that some people made up. They are good. This guy named Cole Dufton, in Bellingen, New Australia in 1989 made these up. Thell me this one: are the dice laying flat or standing up?

Well, that is Optical Illusions. You need to look at my Dad's blog. It has an optical illusion on it. The address is: land of garrett.blogspot.com. Bye.

Halloween



This is a picture of the MUSTACHED PUMPKIN!

I designed and carved this. I hate gutting the pumpkin. The stuff inside is gross. It fell apart a couple of days later. I made this pumpkin for a pumpkin walk.


For the past Halloween years, I have been classic Halloween characters. I have been the Grim Reaper, Frankenstein, a Mad Scientist (Wha ha ha ha), skeleton, ghost, and more. This year we are going to be the Wiggles. It is a singing group for kids. Owen loves it. We are doing this for Owen. So what are you being this year? Probably not doing anything. We all have are fun while we are young.
UNTIL NEXT TIME, GOOD BYE.
BOOO!

FOOD




I am a food eater. My family says that I have a hollow leg. Now since I have braces, I can't eat candy, drink pop, and eat popcorn! What am I supposed to have at the theaters? You tell me. I can't eat hard of chewy foods. I can't eat carrots(yay). Luckily, I can eat french fries and hot dogs.
Aren't braces wonderful? My favorite restaurant is Sizzler. My brother says that Golden Corral is better. Which do you think is better?

This picture makes me hungry. I am going to go eat something. Until next time, Good Bye.

Computer Games

I love computer games! They are fun. These are two of my favorites.

Bionicle Heroes lets you control the Toa Inika. You battle the Piraka and other Bad guys past and present. This was made in 2006. After you defeat a Piraka, you can play with him on his level. After you defeat all six Piraka, you fight Vezon. If you defeat him, you play as Vezon and the Toa Inika.














Roller Coaster Tycoon is fun. The one I have has Loopy Landscapes in it. You get to BUILD YOUR OWN AMUSEMENT PARK!!!!!!!! You choose a scenario and complete it. If you complete it, you get a new scenario. You can spend hours and hours playing it.


Other video games I like are: Lego Star Wars, Wii, Legend of Zelda, and more.

Until next time, Good Bye!

Bionicle Videos

Bionicle Movies are awesome!

It is computer animated and they put hands on them. The green guys are usually funny. The first one is kind of serious. This takes place on tha island of Mata Nui. It's about 2 Matoran (villager), Jaller (Jal-ah) and Takua. Takua finds a mask in a lava cave. After the Kohlii (Kol-ee) tournament, the Turaga say that it is the Mask of Light. The two Matoran go around the island seeking the Seventh Toa. But Makuta sends the Rahkshi to stop them. That is the basic story outline.









Bionicle 2 takes place on the island of Metru Nui 1,000 years ago, when the Turaga were Toa. The island is a city. Toa Lhikan gives six Matoran Toa Stones that will turn them into Toa. The new Toa don't get along very much, but get things done. Turaga Dume says that they are fake Toa and order the Vahki to destroy them. Krekka and Nidiki try to destroy them too, but fail.
They discover their mask powers and fight Makuta.
They need to save the matoran who got put into sleep, and take them to Mata Nui.









Bionicle 3 takes places on Metru Nui also, but it is Taken over by the Visorak spiders, Roodaka, and Sidorak, their leaders. The Toa return from Mata Nui and get captured by the Visorak. They get put into cocoons and get mutated by Visorak venom. They fall from the top of the tallest building, called the Coliseum, but get rescued by the Rahaga. Rahaga Norik tells them how to turn back into their normal selves. They must fing Keetongu.
Vakama, the fire Toa, turns evil by Roodaka. who will win the battle for Metru Nui?



They are planing on making a Bionicle 4, but I don't know what it is about. To learn more, read the books or watch the movies.

until next time, bye!

Books



Books are one of my most favorite things. They are fun to read. My favorite kinds of books are Bionicle books, the Inheritance series, Harry Potter, and lots more.




In order to read books, you need to know how to read (duh). Almost everything has words on it. Like if you didn't know how to read, you couldn't cook, you can't catch up on the Bionicle History, and lots more.


This book is Bionicle Legends #11: The Final Battle. It comes out in November. It is probably the last book, besides,(I hope), the new Encyclopedia. They are probably been inside the Codrex and are fighting the Makuta. Maybe it has Makuta Teridax in it.
This book is called Brisinger. It is part of the Inheritance series. It is probably the last book. I like these books.
Here is a joke.
The absent-minded professor was standing in the middle of a busy intersection with a police man directing traffic. "Excuse me officer." said the confused man. "Can you tell me how to get to the hospital?" Certainly. Just keep standing there!
Until next time, bye!

STAR WARS





Star Wars is one of the best movies of all time! Everyone knows what Star Wars is. It is that famous. In this picture, I am fighting Lego Darth Vader. He made his breathing sound. In the corner is my brother.




In Lego Star Wars, the characters are funny. When C-3P0 and R2-D2 get stranded in the desert, They both go separate ways, then C-3P0 runs after R2. He asks for him to go the other way, but R2 says no. So 3p0 kicks him and goes the other way. After they both get caught by Jawas, R2 is like Yea. But C-3P0 folds his arms and goes, whatever.




Check out this movie. It is Hilarious!

Hope you watch it! Let me know what you thought about it. Bye!
