=The Project=

I am doing my project on Mark Twain or Samuel Langhorne Clemens, this research project has been hard because it is such a long writing assignment and i dont feel like i will be able to get everything i need to in it. and it seems so easy to get an F on it because if you forget to site you get an F and if you dont put all your sources you get and F and it seems like to me to there is only one way get an A and a thousand was to get a D. The thing i liked the best about this project is how much information you learn about the author you are doing research on Mark Twain or Samuel Langhorne Clemens,

Entry 6: Friday March 2, 2012

=An Insteresting man= The guy i'm doing for research is Mark Twain or Samuel Langhorne Clemens, he was classifyed as an great american writer by many people and i couldnt agree more the story of his life along with his captivating stories are still impacting america like they did 100 years ago. Like may whriters he didnt growup solely based arround the idea of writing great novels or anything like that but he did do writing at an early age, at the age of 14 to be in fact this has got to be the most interesting thing i learned about mark aside by getting a boating license and being in the confederate army. i don't really know what one was the most interesting. A interesting thing i learned about researching would possibly be the way to site things and the vast amount of ways you need to site based on your profession, or how to make sure you don't accidently or intentionally copyright another persons findings or work by reading a page or two and don't look back at the work when taking notes.

Entry three: Friday, January 27,2012 =YELP! YELP!= Image Courtney Of: http://chpn.net/news/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/IMGP1810.JPG In my reading i read the next few chapters and im currently on pg66 with 36% i think in the middle of chapter XII (6)of the book done in the story and as i said before that tom was a big trouble maker he was requiered to memories bible verses and was eventually going to be rewared for his achevement in learning the verses with a bible and on sunday moring he was going over veres with his ant and was sort of blowing them off untill he was promises a "big supprise" by his and if he could reasight a fwe verses and he manages to and gets a barlowthis makes tom feel like he is grown up. when tom gets to church he pays kids to get their bible verse tickets's so he can get a free bibbe. when he presents the tickets to the teacher of bible school. the teacher doesnt call toms bluff because the teacher and tom are trying to inpress a inportant figure in the society the mayer of the town and the cerimoney that gives a boy a bible is a good way to do so. when tom gets his bible the teacher asks him who was the first two people to join gods disciples, tom has no clew and answers david and galath. when tom finaly gets in to church servis and everyone takes a seat he takes a pinch bug out of his pocket and when he does it bites him and he troughs it on the floor when he does a poodle sits on it and the poodle starts to yelp! and then the owner takes it out of the church and sits back down in the servis. tom felt verry accomplished because more people where paying more attation to the dog than the service its self. tom gets up the next morning to go to school and he finds the a well known person Huckleberry Finn. this chariter is well known in the town as a kid that can do anything he wants because his dad lets him do anything he wants because he id drunk all the time. tom envy's Finn and wishes he could be like him. tom and finn talk about warts and some remides on how to get rid of them and finn has a dead cat and tells tom if you take a cat and bery it in the graveyard and when a sole of a wiked is taken the cat fallows and so do the warts and tom is intreeged by this and asks if he come along with him when is is going to the graveyard. Huck agree's and tom is late for school. ath this point i am thinking that he is goign to get caought either leavign his house when he is not sopoed too or he is going to get yelled at for comming home late and disappearing from his normal walk home. when tom gets too school he makes the comment that the reason why he is late is because he was with Huck the teacher doesnt take too kindly for that remark. as tom is taking his seet he sees the girl he "loves' and purposly misbehaves knowing he is going to be sitting next too her and he takes the chance to ask her out, when the teacher notices what s goign on she sends tom back to his normal seat. that night tom doesnt fall asleep insted he is tryign to stay still to try too not wake sid who is slleping next to him when tom thinks it is abotu 10pm he gets up and as quiettl y as posible he makes his weay out side to meat up with Huck. Huck is whaitig for hom out next to the house and they make their way to the graveyard together. tom stalking Huck slightly from behind they make their way threw the graveyard and are stoped at a tree by Huck telling tom to be quiett and then tom and Huck both notice the lite that is headign twords them. their first hought is the dead know they are there and are comming to get them but they stay put hidign behind the tree as the light gets closer the boys notice there are three figures and one o them is a man "Muff Potter" soon later the kids make out a guy named "joe' and the town doctor" they all stop right in front of the tree the kids (tom and Huck) where hiding. Joe and Muff picked up the shovels and started to dig up the grave right in front of the tree the docter took a seat right in fron of the tree. the boys whated in the dark hopeign for a chance to dart away. when Muff and Potter get done digging the grave they pull up the coffin and ump the boddy and loot his belongings and then they make a comment to the doctor and the doctor says he already paid them in avaced just like they asked and Muff tells the docter about when he kicked him out when he was trying to find a place to stay and stabs the doctor killing him leavign his knife on the floor horrified and with the moon coverd by cloweds the two boys dart for the entrice of the grave yard and in to a pub. this has a lot of expalnitons in it and there is jsut so much going on i couldnt find a way to summeris it any more than what i already have. what i thought of this amaising twist of the story line from a kid who alwase gets in troble to a kid runnign for his life hoeign he wasnt seen if a good climax to the strory i have read more than i whrote in this blog but i think i left it at a exciteing part that will intreg reader to come back next week to see what happens to the two kids who rwna away from the graveyard. at this point i am wondering if the kids will tell the athourites about what they saw or if they where seen dartign away and where beign fallowed in to the pub and are being watched.

 * WHY RUN A****ND LIE**

so far I'm done with 12% of my book, I'm at page 18 the start of chapter VI(4) i see the main chairter as a young 12 year old with darker hair he seems to get in troble alot. for example in the beging of the book he gets into a fight with this kid and he wins after a long fight. he folows the kid and stalks his house untill his mom comes out and yells at him. Tom (the main chariter) also was whitewashinghis's ants fence but another kid wants to whitewash the fence so tom talks the kid in to giving him stuff to whitewash the fence. when the fence is done (not by tom) tom askes his aunt if he can go out with his friends and she go and checks out the fence and she is inpressed with how good it looks and tom never tells her that he didnt paint the fence. it is hard for me to predict what happens next in this ok because im no good at predicting real life evnts but if i half to i would sujest that tom will take avanteg of his friends and have them do all the work and loose his friends or get in troble by higher athoritrys. Entry one: Today i'm going to start to read: "__The Adventures of Tom Sawyer__" By. Samuel Langhorne Clemens better know as (Mark Twain) as a E-book. The ebook is free for anyone who has a Amazon Kindle or Nook or a E-Reader app on their phone or computer. This (E-Book) has no known publisher, but the hard copy book was published by. American Publishing Company known as (Sun-Times Media Group) the (E-Book) has 356 pages. The reason why i chose this book is because Mark Twain was the only author i recognized in the list of authors and the last short story i read by him i enjoye.
