Every year there are 4 seasons. And each season for my grandfather meant that he would have to call his buddies(including me) so that we could give the cattle their medication and split and tag the new born calves. Only this story isn't set in the confines of my grandfather's farm. This time we had to help on of my grandfather's buddies with his calves. I was sweating a lot. Perfectly usual, but I really just wanted to go home. There was only one thing left to do, and that was to load up just one cow for Bob to take away to the stock yard. There was only one problem, this cow wasn't exactly ecstatic about going in to the trailer, so we really just had to force her in. When she finally got in, she kicked the rear of the trailer and ran through the gate. Before my grandfather and I knew it, there was a 1 ton cow heading our way. We both jumped out of the way, but it was seriously close. On that day, I got in the car, and I said that we were lucky that we weren't hur

The Last World War So far I have really enjoyed The Last World War . The book starts out with a marine reserve squad doing annual training for their duty. They then encounter an alien species that infiltrate Earth by using wormholes that jump two places in space and time to another. There are already a couple things that stand out. One of them being the accurate depiction of an alien's language. By default alien movies go with the cliche and depict the aliens speaking English. This book shows the aliens speaking an entirely different language, therefore creating a language barrier. Another thing that stood out to me is the entirely inaccurate depiction of wormholes. In real theory, wormholes aren't actually confirmed, so we don't really know if they even exist. What we do know is that if they exist, then a huge amount of energy would be required to keep on open for a long period of time. A wormhole in the Earth's atmosphere would cause spontaneous combustion of the

The entire time that I was in Middle School, I would think about the next level on the food chain, high school. The first day was not exceedingly bad like I thought it would be. Teachers just introduced themselves and their courses, and I wasn't really worried. I still feel the same, and I hope that I can reach my goals for this year and throughout high school.  I have a couple of goals for life that I would like to reach in the next 4 years. First of which being my choice of college. I have had a list of 3 colleges for a while now, and mainly because I have always known what I have wanted. The three main colleges that I would like to apply for are MIT, Stanford, and Harvard. I know that I will have to work hard to achieve this goal, and I am ready to go full speed ahead to reach it. 

Code Name Verity was definitely an interesting read for the summer. I chose this book for two main reasons. It is based on WW2 and actual stories from WW2, and it also takes a new spin on the idea of men fighting in WW2.  Code Name Verity is about 2 women who are friends who fight in WW2 and eventually get stranded in Axis Territory by crashing a plane and by being spies. The pilot crashes and joins the French Resistance, and the spy gets captured by the Gestapo and is brutally interrogated. In the end, their paths meet once again, and something surprising happens. When I first began to read this book, I had an optimistic lookout for the end. I believed that just like every other young-adult book(it would end happily). Sadly this isn't that kind of book. At the end of this book, I was disappointed, heartbroken, and just plain mad. I won't spoil it, but the surprising thing that I mentioned was not happy. But I think that is just another quality of this book. It was r
