Putting Life on the Line


 Everyone has a different reason on why they would risk their life to help someone else. I think that people risk their lives for others because as life goes on, they want to remember that they have done a good deed. Someone knowing they have done a good deed makes them feel very happy. The big part of the deed they have done is that they put their life on the line to help someone in danger, knowing that they could possibly be severely injured or killed. This reason would mean very much to whoever put their life at risk for the sake of helping another in need. Someone knowing they have done a major deed such as risking their life will make them happier. Life for that person could not be well, but knowing they have done such a major action that has positively influenced their life and the life of another, will make that person more happy and confident. This is why I believe someone would put their life at risk for someone else.

 Although saving someone is a very impactful event in the life of a person, they must first consider their own life before saving someone else. They would consider themselves first because they might have family or friends that they care about and knowing the risk that they might be severely injured, could leave that person reconsidering their decision. Someone who would consider themselves first must have something that might hold them back from doing such a big task of putting their life in danger. Everyone should always consider their own life before putting their life at risk. This is why someone might look out for themselves first.

Who I Want To Meet

 If I could meet someone from the present, it would be Eddie Murphy. Eddie Murphy is a very funny and well known person. I enjoy the movies that he has played a role in. One of my favorite movies he has played a role in is, " A Thousand Words." One reason I would want to meet him is to ask him how he got started in his acting career and what kind of things I should do if I choose to pursue a career in acting.

 Another reason I would want to meet Eddie Murphy is to know how much work and time it takes to make a movie. I would like to see how the editing is done and how an actor does the voice for an animated character in a movie. For example, I would want to see how Eddie Murphy makes the voice for the character Donkey in the Shrek Movies.

 A third reason why I would want to meet Eddie Murphy is to learn about how he got started in his comedy career and who inspired him. By asking this , I would learn how comedians begin their careers and understand the process they go through to have a succesful career in comedy. This is why I want to meet Eddie Murphy.

My Vacation



 There are several events I did over vacation. One event I did over my vacation was go sledding. I went with my two brothers, sister, and cousin. My cousin was visiting from Washington D.C., so my Mother decided to take him sledding. We went to a park in Westlake. When we arrived, there were many people. Since there were so many people, it was a little hard to find a spot on the hill. After we found a spot, we began to sled. I sled down with my little sister because it was her second time going sledding. A challenge we faced while sledding, was trying to avoid the people in the way. When I went down the hill the second time, I almost hit someone, which caused me to fall of the sled. Another challenge we faced was avoiding not slipping on the hill. The top of the hill was partially covered by ice and we almost slipped. My cousin really enjoyed the experience and we all had a good time.
