Film Club 9/18/09

Today in film club we watched the movie Plan 9 from Outer Space by Edward D. Wood Jr. which is a low budget horror movie from the late 1950s which we compared how movie making and especial horror movies have increased from the 1950 to the late 70s when Halloween was made. We've come to respect and listen each others so far.

Film Club 9/11/09

Today was my first film club meeting after our introductory meeting on 9/10/09 where we discussed what we will do this year. Anyways today we watched the movie "Halloween" by John Carpenter and we discussed our likes and dislikes of the movie and decided what we'd like to learn and copy from the movie and what does not belong in the movies.

Citizen Energy Fundraiser 9/17/09

Today I sold cookies to the students of my school making 22 more dollars now putting me at 34.75 almost half way to my goal. I am learning more about my strengths because I've always been afraid to go up to people I don't know and now I have to sell things to them and I am doing good at, which makes me happy because its worth it in the end to hopefully see all the money I save go to people who really need it. This whole process is really shows me how lucky I and other people have it and how we should help out families who are needy.

Citizen Energy Fundraiser 9/14/09

Today I sold donuts before school time and during break making over 12$ towards my goal of between 50 and 100 dollars before Christmas time. It felt really good selling for this purpose and made me want to sell more. THis is very important so I can help out as many family s as possible during the winter time with the current economic state.
