Invisible Cloak for a Day

     In my day wearing an invisible cloak I was able to be an unrecognized hero. I was able to do a lot but the big thing was saving a persons life who feel out of a 23rd story window. I was just walking down the street. I had just bought a nice New York City corn dog. I had some nice ketchup and french fries on the side. I had gotten a water bottle too. It was nice because I didn't have to pay for any of it. Everyone around me was scared that food was flying around and disappearing at the same time. One guy tried to take it so I started to run.

     Once I began to run away he started to chase after me. I wasn't sure what was going through his head that he wanted the food that much. It even got so hectic that a news truck started to follow. We were going left and than right down the streets as I tried to loose him. All of this stopped when I saw a man hanging from a window. He was screaming and no one had noticed. He wasn't loud enough to hear him over all of the New York noise. I had to do something so I called the police. I told them the address and they came to save him. I went home and never felt better. I saw everything about  floating food and a man hanging from a window saved from a mysterious phone call. It was the best day of my life. 

RSS Feed Discussion Question

     I selected the sites that I subscribed to because they were news sites, government owned sites, and my personal interests. It was simple to find them if you searched for the one that you wanted with rss feed after it (ex: NBC News RSS Feed). My favorite two sites were Treyarch and Activision because they are my interests. You could also use rss feeds for getting all your information in one place. I don't think that I will use rss feeds because I don't really like the way it is. It's different than what I am used to so I am not comfortable with it.

Do Now 11/30

     One of the people that I am most grateful for is my mom. My mom knows whats best for me. She always tells me to do the right thing and helps me when I need it. She keeps a roof over my head and puts the food that I eat on the table. No matter what I know that she will always be there for me. I love my mom and she loves me.
     Another person that I am most grateful for is my sister. She is an inspiration to me to be such a hard worker. She is always doing what ever it takes to follow her dreams. She is a very smart and independent woman. I am grateful that I have such a grate person to look up to. I know that hard work can pay off because of her. My sister is, in a way,  my idol.
     For the Thanksgiving holidays my family has the same tradition every year. My mom's side of the family goes to my Aunt's house. We sit, eat, and just talk about was has been going on in our lives. We eat stuffing, turkey, and other traditional foods for Thanksgiving. It's nice to have a day with my family to just relax with the people that I'm closest to.
