Week 14 Movie adaptations

The movie adaptation I would make would be A long way from chicago, this book is about a boy who gives very detailed descriptions of the times when he went to grandma's house when he and his sister were younger. Joey's grandmother is a whopper for telling lies and she gets herself into a big lie every summer that they go down there. For instance, they go down there for one summer and grandma gets the Cowgil boys in trouble. I would make this book into a movie because I think that it would become a good movie. I think that this movie would require a big aray of characters from Mucully Culkin to play Joey, to Dakota Fanning to play mary-alice they would also have to have someone to play Grandma Dowel. This is what I think would make a good movie when they make this book into a movie.

Week 13

The main conflict in the movie "Big Fish" is William wanting to know the truth about his father's life. For today, write about some aspect or aspects of your own parents life that they've never talked about. What do you think they were like as high schools? What are the details of their wedding? What were some of the struggles and problems they experienced before you were born?
My mother's mane is Melissa and my father's name is Greg. I know they met at a work party for my father, and Greg's old boss introduced them to each other. I don't know however where they were, or how they felt about each other when they first met. I believe that they didn't know they would be married, living with me, my brother and my sister. I can't imagine what my mother felt when dad proposed to her. I shall get more information on that from my grandmother. She will tell me all about the proposal and all of the worries that my parents had when they were engaged.
I wonder what they were like when they were in their schools? I really don't know much about my mother's life, though she moved about 26 times in her life, other than that I really don't know much about her school life. I do however know that she didn't have many friends. She hasn't told me about what her college life was about yet, though I know she spent many days out of class, because she didn't wake up that early.

Week 12

When I think of my childhood, I smell the smells of the buffet line in the lunch room...and the smells come back to my mind, of when my mom would make me a grilled cheese sandwich, and then cut it diagonally in half, pull it apart, and eat half while we talked about whatever came to mind. When I think about all the things about my childhood that is what comes to mind because my mother was the world to me, and I need her still in my life. When I find the people that love me like my mother, I feel safe and sucure.
