Big Bully, small bully

Does size make up a big part in bullying?

I think that some kids use their size to their advantage to threaten or hurt other kids.
Just, in my book, the "tuff kid" Is shorter than the two boys that are afraid of him. Why?
Is it cause he's stronger? Would people be intimidated by me? I'm short and strong.

Doesn't matter what size you are if you're cyber bullying though.

This post was kinda short, but so am I, so don't hate.

are friends a distraction

Are friends a distraction?
Do we really need them?

YES! I hate the people that are always like "I'm not here to make friends".
In my book "Its kind of a funny story", the main character is told he's not at the hospital to make friends, he's only there to heal his depression.

Yeah! Sure it's a bad idea to makes friends, When your in the hunger games and your going to have back stab them eventually! But to me, friends sounds like best thing for a depressed kid! Maybe not anybody like aaron, friends like the people he's meeting at the hospital. Friends like humble. Probably even a girlfriend.

I would have never made it through School without friends. I don't know who could. Skaters have to have friends to skate with and to learn from. So does Craig.

You always need a friend, to chill with to learn from, and to share life with. You also need a friend to help you in hard times. What do you think the whole song "lean on me" is about?! A friends to lean on help you. 

That's what I think friends are all about. They're for you to help, and help you. When My friends make me laugh, they're making me happy. They are helping me. Friends help in little ways and big ways. And I think you need both. Friend that help in big ways, help you with something hard. Friends the help in little ways help by making life a little easier or funner. Sometimes They make you happy just being around them you love them so much. 

Friends are everywhere. And this is why shy people shouldn't be shy! If you think no one wants to be your friend then you are terribly mistaken. All you have to do is talk to some one! Really! Friends will help you your entire life, so start making some!

I think that these friends are what's going to heal craig and his depression.
But what happens when he has to leave the hospital? When he has to leave all his friends? Will Craig survive? I hope so.

blog post #2?...

ok I just finished "The Maze Runner", a very thought provoking story. In the book a group of boys are faced with a test. Like lab rats, they are placed in a maze. First of all what kind of weirdoes would do that?! Maybe they did it "in the name of science!", but I think they're psychoes that thrive on the pain of children. That or they're just psycho scientists who want to test the human limits. That seems to be a popular theme,  when will some one crack. You know, the point where a person has had it to their limit. In this case, the boys were tested on how much will they had to survive in a situation that seemed hopeless. Every day Runners would go out and search this maze only to never find an exit for two years. How far could you go?
       Today 33 Chilean miners were pulled out of the ground to the safety of the world above. The had been trapped for 2 months in a small stone chamber a mile and a half below the surface (*gasp!*). I'm suprised that not one came out insane. I'm sure if I had been stuck in a tiny dark room for two months with thirty three other guys, I would have gone mad! In my book, these survivors never lost hope, and the miners also never lost hope. So when do you? Whats the limit. I'd like to know, but I'm not going to put a bunch of innocent boys in a hopeless maze.
    I think that Thomas was a bit to toward being a runner. I didn't like how in every chapter he'd bring up that he HADE to be a runner.

                                                  NEW THING

Why do all teenage books have to be depressing! *spoiler alert* Chuck had to be brutally killed cause it creates a bunch of conflict, but I've got enough conflict in my life! Do I have to read Alice in wonderland to escape this murderous mentality of children and teenage authors?! I couldn't even escape this curse by reading my childhood favorite (freak the mighty) Childhood favorite!   Listen, if your writing a book, I will read it, even if it doesn't have someone special tragically dying!
  I know why authors are writing heartbreaking stories like this! Cause it's what the kids want to hear! What is wrong with my generation? What's with this sudden craze of death?! I don't like it! Can't we all just be friends with our books without my brain being scarred by these ultra morbid books?!

Maxs 1st post ... du

Book: The Maze Runner -  forget who its by.

Is sanity important? In my book, the main character says that if he has to be a gardener every he'd go insane. He'd much rather be a runner. Charging through the giant maze risking his life even more every second he spends inside of it.  So is it worth it?! Is staying sane worth risking your life? Is sanity that important. Thomas is in an isolated courtyard with no beings other than 30 mangy boys, so what does it matter? Whose going to care?
   Is that bad? Lots of our favorite fictional characters are mad. The Hatter, The Cheshire Cat, The Joker.
Would anyone want to be mad? I don't think so. Would anyone risk their life not to be mad? Thats what Thomas is doing.
   Maybe it's best not to be mad in a society thats revolves around order. Yeah, now being mad sounds like a terrible idea. I'd say ben was pretty crazy and then he got banished. Sooooo...that can't be very good.
How insane would gardening drive thomas? What the grievers would do to him is worse than death. I dont like what thomas is thinking/doing. Everything is just "my life sucks, but it's ok cause im gonna be a runnner and thats my destiny!" Sounds kinda ... cheesy. He's hitting the same note over and over again and I dont like that.
  Hitting the same note isn't very good if your trying to create drama. Doesn't the author know that? Cause I'm getting a bit tired of it. Seriously, watch thomas try to be runner and get eaten on the first day.
