I am poem

I am the feces
I wonder if I could suffocate or kill
I hear my own stomach growling for you
I see your body fighting against me
I want to help but I have no extremities
I am the feces

I pretend to be evil but deep, deep inside I am just satisfying my needs
I feel darkness that your are going trough
I touch that heart and it's cold and scared
I worry if he has a way to get put
I cry because I don't want to do this but I have to
I am the feces

I understand your frightened
I say to be happy but I'm sad too
I dream of not having this nightmare
I try to eat as fast as I can
I hope I did not hurt him
I am the feces

"I am" Poem

I am the heart that can't breath inside of you
I wonder if anybody is going to save me
I hear a really short crying
I see again that red water coming towards me
I want to be able to breath
I am the heart that can't breath inside of you

I pretend to palpitate as normal but I can't
I feel that everything hurts and I can't move
I worry if I'm going to be able to do this
I cry because I don't want to die
I am the heart that can't breath inside of you

I understand the person that I'm inside of
I say to try my best
I dream of getting fix
I try to stay still but the cuts are hurting me really bad
I hope it doesn't take long
I am the heart that can't breath inside of you

Essay

Do you know how many people have received the Medal of Honor in the American Civil War? There was about 1521 mens that had received it. Think about this, not all those heroes get a chance to wear it, and feell proud of what they have done. The ones that have earn it and are able to wear it, their are sure glad to be one of them heroes.
This medal symbolize sacrifice to me. It really hard to be able to earn a Medal of Honor. You need to put other before you. Which is really difficult because some people can not think that way. This medal is all about ability, having the power to earn it. To not be afraid.
It takes bravery in order to be awarded to Congressional Medal of Honor. In that situation I believe you do not think, is only just do it. Bravery is to have the valor to help someone in danger. Is to think about other and not only you. As like you may not think what might happened to you, but you sure know that the person needs help.
The Medal of Honor needs to be value. Once again it not easy to receive this medal. Who ever get it, the heroes should appreciate it. Sometimes it gets to that the person feels that they do not deserve it. People also might think that because a person having the medal and when something is in danger they are responsible to save someone.
Helping others is the something really important. They are risking their life for a stranger.This people were chosen to earn the medal because they have done something really good for that person and the nation.

Citation:
Private Barney F. Hajiro distinguished himself by extraordinary heroism in action on 19, 22, and 29 October 1944, in the vicinity of Bruyeres and Biffontaine, eastern France. Private Hajiro, while acting as a sentry on top of an embankment on 19 October 1944, in the vicinity of Bruyeres, France, rendered assistance to allied troops attacking a house 200 yards away by exposing himself to enemy fire and directing fire at an enemy strong point. He assisted the unit on his right by firing his automatic rifle and killing or wounding two enemy snipers. On 22 October 1944, he and one comrade took up an outpost security position about 50 yards to the right front of their platoon, concealed themselves, and ambushed an 18-man, heavily armed, enemy patrol, killing two, wounding one, and taking the remainder as prisoners. On 29 October 1944, in a wooded area in the vicinity of Biffontaine, France, Private Hajiro initiated an attack up the slope of a hill referred to as "Suicide Hill" by running forward approximately 100 yards under fire. He then advanced ahead of his comrades about 10 yards, drawing fire and spotting camouflaged machine gun nests. He fearlessly met fire with fire and single-handedly destroyed two machine gun nests and killed two enemy snipers. As a result of Private Hajiro’s heroic actions, the attack was successful. Private Hajiro’s extraordinary heroism and devotion to duty are in keeping with the highest traditions of military service and reflect great credit upon him, his unit, and the United States Army.

Goals done for this month!

First of all the goal that I accomplish this month was to be on a parade. Actually it wasn't a parade were I went yesterday! Which I still count it as participating
at something for school. It was at downtown we just stood on the streets
with a candle on our hands for a long time. People would thank us for lighting
their way.At the end I got real tired of standing there like a statue.

My second goal was to always try my best. Which ever i did not understood something. I tried
my best. For example at Mr. Bates's class (music class) When he gives us new notes to play. I always try my best to make the beats sound right. So when i take the test I do it right.
