Dear Abbie,
This post really explains you, i had to do a self contained giggle when you mentioned the you love awkward moments(palm tree and head grab). all last year was funny when the arguments in math broke out. I also noticed you said you enjoy sarcasm and am a bit confused if you were using it when you were talking about the read for a lifetime assignment. I also think its funny that you love the girl books so much, just like your best friend Stevie cough cough. Good blog post way to truly describe yourself!

hey Hannah im here to comment on your post here. i remember when you and Zach came over and showed me this song. its a crazy song and it sound like it really fits your book, i haven't read your book but you make it sound like it was meant to be! I agree with you in this aspect too, that most of this classical music is like omg no, but after listening to a few of these songs its actually like epic dance party music, good choice of songs Hannah see ya later.

Hey Stevie its good to know that you don't struggle with reading and everything, and i agree writing is not one of my strong suites either but i guess its something we all have to do. I don't know anything about your book, but i'm sure its really cool because you said its interesting. I also think you did a fine job for your first blog way to go champ!! have a nice day ill see ya later!

Music Entry

   I feel as though this song represents my book, "Half Brother", very well because it has enthusiasm and sadness. This song composed by Evohe Adone, is titled Sonata per clarinetto e pianoforte. In the song there are high and low point always showing happiness and sadness, new and old, adventure and boredom. This relates to "Half Brother" in ways such as the boys attitude to the move to Canada and the new baby (monkey) Zan. At first the boy hates the move and is all down but then he is picked up when its his birthday, then he gets all down again when his father is always gone and he dose not have any friends to  hang out with, and along with this his mother brings home the new project, a monkey that is going to be adapted into human life for the first time in history, real family, real friends, and real human characteristics. The boy is very skeptical about this project at first and very defensive feeling replaced as his mothers attention shifts all the way to the monkey. This would be a low point in the music. Then as the story goes on the boy meets a friend who lives down the street and they start riding bikes together and hanging out all the time, here is where the music picks back up with enthusiasm, and on and on this continues through out the book with all the high and low points exciting and dull.
