One of my favorite shows of all times is BET 106 and Park. It's a Hip Hop music show that's been around for a while. And they still show it. One of my recent favorite ones is Lopez Tonight. They show it TBS and its hosted by George Lopez. It's a comedy show and he brings new guests each time.
Well I don't really have any big plans for Thanksgiving rather than stay home with my family and do the usual, eat turkey. I'm not a very big Thanksgiving fan. I don't really like turkey. I prefer chicken. Now that I know we have a week off I'm planning to spend some time with my cousin. Other than that I'll just stay home and sleep.

I think Arnold, and Rowdy look at the world as them being on their own. Rowdy just seems to hate life. Junior has been getting back on track. He now made a friend and seems to like his new school. Rowdy has a anger managment problem beacause he beats everybody up.
Junior is a Spokane Indian and lives on the reservation. At Reardan High School Junior is one of the smartest kids, but Gordy is smarter. Junior has a hard time getting to school , so sometimes he has to walk all 22 miles.
How I think that the author got it's name for it's book is he first thought of what the story was mainly about which is Indians living on a reservation. I also think that the title means him being an Indian but trying to be somebody else.
Well I'm actually impressed by the way Junior and his community are living in the Reservation. I've actually heard different, I was told that Indians live a wealthy life on a Reservation. And just living there would be a struggle. The reservation seems so boring and poor. Living there would be my last thing I would want to do.
Junior was born with a brain problem. Ever since he doesn't seem like a normal kid. Junior is a lonely kind of kid who doesn't have a lot of friends. He seems to be a pretty funny looking kid. He hates his Indian heritage and hates being poor. Other Indians bully him around and beat him up.
The book we read was really good. It was easy to see what the author was trying to say because he gave a lot of details. It's also a very funny book so that's another good thing. And it just seems for it to get better.
Well one of the biggest obstacle I'm willing to overcome is getting my GED. My GED means a lot to me now because I decided I want to go to college. And if you wish to go to college you got to have a diploma/GED. So this is probably the biggest thing I'm trying to overcome. In order for me getting my GED I got to work on going to school most of the time.
Well I was born and raised in Oxnard, California. And for fourteen years I lived in what people called the ghetto. One of the most dramatic things I got to experienced was very scary. It was a Friday just past noon when me and couple friends were out playing basketball at a near by park. And as we finished playing we hear gunshots. The thing was that they sounded really close to us. We ran down there to see what it was. As we got to scene we saw a body laying down covered in blood. It turned out that the guy that had gotten shot was one of my childhood friends.
The book I'm reading now is called Rookie. I would call it an ok book it's not really a novel it's more like a autobiography. It talks about basketball players careers in the NBA. It's not the greatest book ever written.
