Forrest Gump

The moral of the story in Forrest Gump is that you should live your life to the fullest and not let anything hold you back. Forrest could have lived his life differently than he did because of his autism. But he didn't let it get in the way and his life weas full of wild adventures. I think that we should all have an attitude like Forrest.
When I read this book I got a lot out of it. I got a few laughs and good entertainment from the book. I liked the book in the beginning and at the end but I didn't like the middle of the story. I thought the story had a good ending. I am glad that we are watching the movie in class now because I have never seen it before and now I can compare the book and movie and see what I like better.

On Wednesday afternoon, a young girl was reported to have broken into the home of a family of bears. She is due in court next Tuesday, facing charges of aggravated burglary, felony breaking and enetering, and misdeamenor tampering of evidence. She also faces a law suit against the victims. Prosecutors allege that the girl,10, is called "Goldilocks", and her last name is being witheld because she is a minor, broke into the home of the three bears while they were away for the day. Police began recievings tips of a possible home invasion from neighbors around noon, but no officers were sent to investigate. When the three bears returned in the evening, they report to have found their home "destroyed". The troubled girl stole food, sat on furniture, and made her way into one of the victims beds and fell asleep. On Wednesday evening, emergency responders rushed to the residence after recieving a frantic 9-1-1 call from one of the terrified victims. Goldilocks was arrested and booked into the county jail on a $500,000 bond. As of Thursady, she had not posted bail and continues to be held in jail.

First Halloween Memory

The first Halloween that I can remember was in pre school. At the time, Peter Pan was my most favorite movie and so I was Peter Pan for Halloween. My grandma made my costume. I wore a green vest and sweat pants and a green hat. I also had a belt with a wrench on it to make it look like I had a sword. I wore my costume to pre school like everyone else did and that night my mom took me and my brothers, who were both dressed up as dalmations, trick-or-treating. It was pretty fun and thats the first Halloween that I remember.
