one of the best thanksgivings yet

"hey everyone is here Alex!" my mom yelled.

I thought to myself, "ugh.. here comes another boring thanksgiving." My dads side of the family had just showed up to my house for thanksgiving like they do every year. I usually am bored out of my mind. All we ever do is eat and then the old people sit in the dinning room and play rook. I hate that game because i don't know how to play it. IT was different this year they didn't play. I was so surprised. I thought hey it may not be that bad. We all ended up sitting in the living room and talking with each other. I really enjoyed that because i don't really know much about my dad side of the family because they live in a different town.

So again i thought to myself wow i had a really good time maybe this year thanksgiving will be good. Then my mind changed very quickly when i found out we would be going to my aunts house from my moms side of the family. This doesn't sound very bad at first but the thing that makes it bad is my moms sisters in laws were coming. What makes that so bad is they are from Michigan. I hate going to see them because they are all loud , annoying and the worst radical liberals.

We get to my aunts house and o my gosh there was so much food it looked Delicious and it tasted that way to. Another thing about my relatives from Michigan is they love to drink and my immediate family does not drink. So the night went on and they got drunker and drunker. They also got a whole lot funnier . Then I'm talking to someone and my uncle grabs me and wants to wrestle. He was obviously drunk because i am way bigger than him . I ended up whipping him many times because he would say i quite and then grab me again after i let him up. Then i made friends with my cousin and had a great rest of the night. This has been the best thanksgiving yet and i think its because i actually tried to interact with my family and not sit in my room by myself.

the brothel auction

Last week i was asked to be auctioned off by my fraternity, Sigma Chi. At first i thought i thought that's kinda weird and trashy, but then i heard that the money raised for this event would go to helping cure cancer. So after thinking about it i thought, okay well I'm going to be auctioned off for a three hour date with a girl it cant be that bad. So i told my fraternity i was fine with doing it. The rules of the auction were bids start off at five dollars and the winner of the person being auctioned off would get a three hour date with that person.

So i figured being one of the younger guys i would not go for very much money at all. So i show up about twenty minutes early as i was instructed and come to find out everyone was supposed to have a theme and i didn't have one great i was screwed. Some guys had floaties, some guys were old rappers and one guy was a cheerleader so now i was really screwed because i all wore was a button shirt and jeans.

All the guys went and i was one of the last ones to go. At that time the most money raised on a single guy was about sixty dollars. I was going to be content with making ten dollars so i walked up there and girls started to bid i was shocked. The bids went to ten dollars and i thought o wow that's good . Then it went up even more to twenty dollars and i thought well that's really good for me . So i stood there for a few more minutes and the bids kept going and then i hear sold to the Savannah. I turn to look at the MC and he says Alex Hutto has went for eighty dollars. I was shocked. I had went for the most money out of every one. So now i must wait to hear from my date and part two of this blog will written after the date.

extra credit ..... Hopefully lol

i watched a movie tonight it was called second hand lions. Its a very good movie. IT really touched my heart and almost made me cry. I give the movie an 8 out of 10. I watched it with my family and it brought us closer together i felt like. IT has a great group of actors the young boy whose name slips my mind as of right now plays the role very well. the plot of the story is also good it keeps you interested.Many stories are told in this movie and that makes the movie even more interesting. The movie also has a great plot its about to old men who end up babysitting a boy for the summer and they really bond with the boy and become best friends. the old men come to love the boy and the boy loves them. They end up living together until the boy moves out and then the two old men die in a plane crash which is really sad but the ending ends up being really good. I would recommend this movie to all ages because its very entertaining yet deep and intellectual. It also touches your heart and everyone needs a good cry now and then. If you get some time you should rent it and watch it with a loved one or your family because its a great movie all around.(I hope this gets me some extra credit because I'm going to need some to get a good grade lol)

READINGS OVER THE REVIEWS

At first i was very nervous about writing a review because i have no clue how to write over four hundred words with out telling what happened in the movie or at the dinner. I began to read the the readings that were assigned and the first one i read was the one about Dawson's Creek. I have never seen this show but after reading this i know the main plot of the show. The writing tells the major plots and the controversial issues that make the story interesting. The writing talks about how parents don't like this show because of how controversial it is, but the writer tells about how it actually addresses real problems that teens deal with today. This writing is a good example of what a review should look like.
The second reading that i encountered was a review over a restaurant. This is a good example of how to review a restaurant. It began to talk about the food and how it tasted. This is the best thing to do when reviewing a restaurant because that is the main reason many people go to a restaurant. Then there are people who go to restaurant like professor Andy does who go for the luxury and the entertainment of eating with friends. The second thing to talk about when reviewing a restaurant is the service and cleanliness of the place. This is a good example of how to write a review on a restaurant but for me that might be the hardest thing to write about because i just don't see that there could be that much to write about a restaurant.
The third reading might for me be the easiest thing to write about, a movie. This reading reviews the movie Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. I believe this would be the easiest to wright about because there is so much to write about the movie. Movies usually are long and have much material to talk about such as the plot the characters etc. These readings gave me a good example of how to write a review for many different things so i have decided to write my review about a movie The law abiding citizen.

The dreaded yet fun week

I figure extra credit always helps so i figured i would write about homecoming week.

Homecoming week was a week everyone was excited about and i was excited about it also. But i had no clue what i was getting myself into. Being a freshman you learn many things the hard way because its your first time for pretty much everything. I learned that homecoming week is a tough week for fraternities and sororities there are so many things to do. I thought that this week was just fun stuff and the toughest thing we do is were alot of purple. I was so wrong we have to build a float which takes for ever to do, we have to learn a cheer and a dance which turned to be the hardest thing and we have to all the spirit stuff. So this week was going to be a tough week. I showed up at the float site ready to work and O my gosh i did work but i did make many good Friends out of it. I met many hot girls and got closer to my pledge brothers. This went on every night for two weeks working late into the night. At the end of the week the float looked great and i was very proud of it actually. The cheer and dance stuff was for pep rally luckily i was smart enough not get involved with the pep rally because the girl that taught the dance was a mean physco so I'm glad i didn't do that.

There was a party at the end of the week which turned out to be fun i meet even more people and ended the week on a good note so overall i enjoyed my first homecoming and cant wait til next year

I walked into Derryberry with Ronnie by my side on the day of October 30 it was a Friday. I was very excited about what i was about to see. Ronnie had been talking about how awesome it was for like a week and a half. He even designed the poster advertising the event. The event was the step show it was its fourth year and has been a very popular event or so Ronnie said. We sat down and were ready to be amazed. One thing i didn't know was that schools from the surrounding areas were also coming to step along with the fraternities from our school. The step show was amazing, i moved to the beat and got so into the stepping.One of the best step that went on i thought was the alphas from tech but Ronnie was thoroughly convinced that the Kappas who were not from our school were the best. We left together and talked about who was the best we both had good points but we ended up agreeing to disagree.
I really enjoyed the step show but i did have some complaints about it. Like it kinda seemed unprofessional or maybe more of being unprepared. During the show a screen came down and they couldn't get it to go back up which brought down the hypness of the show. Other than that the show was a big success i thought and next year i will surely go again and hopefully i can get more friends to come with me next time because it was well worth my time. GOOOO TECH!!!!

blog on meet joe blog

i actually enjoyed reading this out of the book i usually do not like to read it but it was very interesting and i learned some things from reading that. Blogs used to not be a very big deal people just didn't care about them i was one of those people who didn't and didn't really care or even know what one was until this year in English. I am beginning to not care as much to blog because i am starting to enjoy writing.

this reading was very educational and opened my eyes to something i had no idea was going on. The book tells of how blogs impacted the world around us and how much power they actually had. I learned that there are different blogs for different reasons some are to express ideas and others are made to tell of things no one else has seen. i thought it was neat how a soldier who was in Saddam Hussein's palace described what it was like , that is awesome because anyone who is curious about it can read that and doesn't have to hear by word of mouth which spreads the story faster. It is also used to express someones real ideas with out someone going through and saying hey you cant put that or editing out the real raw things people want to keep in there writing

After reading this article out of the book i have a new found respect for blogs. I now see that blogs aren't just written because people get bored. I see they actually have a meaning behind them and have good legitimate information. Maybe by the end of the year i will turn into a blogger myself and actually do it because i really want to not because i have to. then maybe i will voice my opinions and let someone see how i really feel inside.
