My way of choosing a good restaurant is by the taste of the food, the cost and the cleanliness of the restaurants. If a restaurants food does not taste good and the floors are dirty or if there are flies buzzing around and it is cheap then you know that the restaurant is a horrible one.
5. MacDonald's Restaurant
Now this restaurant isn't to bad, but I find that the food is usually really greasy and the burgers there, they look nothing like what they look on the large picture menus. And certain restaurants I go in there are lies buzzing around the food, after looking at those i don't really feel like eating anymore because my appetite is ruined.
4. Burger King
Whenever I go in to Burger King I usually get the burger they are known for their "Whoppers" and these burgers are cheap, and they actually look like the pictures on the menus, and their food is not always dripping with grease, but I always find that their floors are dirty, so to me this a bad restaurant.
3. Dairy Queen
I usually eat there whenever I go to town because this is a restaurant that you can see them cooking your food so you know what your eating. The prices are decent and the food isn't sopping with grease when you go to eat it. But I do find that they are slow for being a fast food restaurant and there isn't a whole lot of room in there either. So in my eyes this restaurant, it's okay.
2. A&W
I eat at A&W a lot, but I find it is quite expensive, and it is only a fast food restaurant. I find that the onion rings there are really crumbly and the restaurant is usually really cold inside. The floors are really clean and the restaurant is fast, but I find the food is really expensive. The food isn't to greasy and the food is neat and the restaurant is clean, but the only downfall is that it is expensive.
1. Jungle Jim's
This place is horribly expensive, I mean like when I go in there my wallet hurts when I come out. But the food is really good, but I don't really care for how long I have to wait because when ever I go in there I usually have to wait a good half hour for my food. They are really cleanly there, but the wait and the cost are insane. That is what I think of Jungle Jim's.

Creating My Character
The movie I decided to make a character for is Larry the Cable Guy: Witness Protection, the name of the character I have made is Carlos Diego and he is a Mexican and he is suppose to be Larry's friend, but turns out to be a bad guy near the end of the movie.
Carlos Diego has brown hair about shoulder length with blue eyes and he has a face full of freckles. Carlos is about 6 foot 7 inches tall and weighs about 350 pounds. Carlos tricks Larry into being his friend and the stupid idiot Larry is he falls for it with out finding any background information about Carlos to see his history.
At the end of the movie Carlos ends up trying to kill Larry for taking the girl out of the Cadillac Escalade. Then while the FBI is after Larry for taking the girl, Carlos tries to slow Larry down by breaking things on Larry's truck. First by giving him a flat tire then taking parts of Larry's engine in his truck, but little does Carlos know that Larry is a "redneck" and rednecks can fix anything to do with a vehicle in minutes. So Carlos does not slow Larry down very much. In the end Carlos ends up getting locked up because Larry is a cop, and Carlos does not know this and finally Larry learns some back ground history about Carlos and finds out he is a 3rd degree murderer wanted in 7 different states for murder, so Larry ends up trying to lock him up, but does not succeed and Carlos gets away from the law for now and flees back to Mexico where he belongs.

Writing Styles (Part 2)
The information I find helpful is that the piece of writing that I am writing needs to be short and straight to the point. The information that is important is that I have to get straight to the point because I usually ramble on and on. Another piece of information that I find helpful for my writing is that I will have to prepare my questions before hand and go through them and after I get the information I will have to read through the document and check for errors in the writing and grammatical errors. I find another piece of information that useful is tho go through the information and see if it makes sense.
Also the information that I found useful was to check and see who you are writing for, check and see the type of audience that you are writing for.

Writing Styles
I have chosen for a sample of new writing, is CBC news (NASA Launches Sun-watching Satellite) and this is a piece of writing I really like because it gets the message over effectively because you can almost tell what will be in the clipping by the heading of the piece of news. The link for the piece of news will be down at the bottom of the post.
I feel this effective because the piece of news is right to the point and that is the type of news that I like. I like this piece of news because it is quite descriptive. I really like the heading of the clipping because the heading is very bold and the print is fairly large. I would my writing like this because I find with my writing I don't get straight to the point I just go on and piece.

Writing Inventory
During my spare time I don't write because writing is not one of my talents I don't like writing, but I will write if I have to, example for school I will. I do have a favorite writer though and his name Peter D. Clark and he writes true paranormal activity stories.
The kind of writing that is easy for my is writing I can relate to, for example Peter D. Clark's writing is writing I can relate to I like reading these types of stories because I know people who have had paranormal experiences and I have had probably two paranormal expeirence s through out my life.The type of writing that is challenging for me is the type of writing the writing that is in an essay format, I find this type of writing challenging because I find it hard to follow and read.
I get my ideas for writing from my mind, but it takes a long period of time for me to get a decent idea that I like, that is why I don't really like writing. I don't have any peice of writing I am currently working on right now, but I just finished a peice of writing two days ago and it is posted on blog.
There is no peice of writing that I am proud of because I am not a good writer. For each assignment I usually produce two drafts, one is the original draft then the second is a revised draft then i usually prduce the good copy of the writing. One particular strength I have as a writer is that I can imagine really quick.
My weakness as a writer is that it takes me a while to come up with an idea to write about if I don't have an idea. I don't have any favorite subjects about writing that I enjoy, because as I said a couple of lines up that it takes me a while to come up with an idea that is decent to write about. One of my goals as a writer this semester is to try and do the best of my ability for writing.

The Trees
As I was snowshoeing through the woods behind my house I suddenly looked over to my right and I saw this image I could not erase form my mind. It was a mixture of white pine and spruce trees.
The feeling that went through my head was a feeling of purity, like my soul was washed free.
This is a very nice scene because there is no movement, and there is nobody around me, it’s just me and the trees. As I keep on snowshoeing I just keep getting this image in my head. As I snowshoe back I stop once more at these same white pine and spruce trees. As I started on my journey I decided to take a walk in through the trees and look out through them to see what the animals see when they look out at me passing by, when I get in the cluster of trees I look out and I see something magnificent, all I see is the glistening snow and white pine and spruce trees. As I start on my way home I stop before I get there to think about this beautiful sight and then I start to wonder what it would be like to live among the beautiful white pine and spruce trees.
When I get home and that night when I go to sleep this is all I can dream about all through out my sleep.
