What I Think About Poetry

I believe that through time poetry has stayed a popular writing style because it is an easy way to show your feelings toward a subject, because poetry makes it easier to understand.

The most popular form of poetry used would have to be rhyme because everything sounds more interesting and a lot easier to remember when it is catchy which most rhyme’s are.

I believe that poetry plays a large role in our lives because it is in everything such as song all songs are played around poetry’s guidelines.

Poetry appeals to people because it is catchy and you could make anything interesting by using poetry because of it’s easy to use rules.

I do not enjoy reading or writing poetry because I do not find poetry appealing because I do not like to read at all, that is why I do not know any poems off of the top of my head.

Poems in Everyday Life

I think that the quote means that people wright poetry because it is in everyone and is built because of the passion that the person has on the sbject. I don't totally agree with the statment because when I write poetry the words dont just bundle out of me they are forced out because I want to tell someone my feelings on the subject.

My first example of poetry in my everyday life is the paint supplies song which is on the paint supplies advert on television. The point of writing the song as poetry is so that it is catchy and that it gets stuck in your head, and if for some reason a conversation started about paint I would suddenly think of paint supplies without even knowing.

My second example is a final goodbye to a familys mother which I found in the newspaper. The resoning behind writing their final fairwell as a poem is to show their feelings toward the person and how much they miss them.

YouTube Clip Response

I was acturally quite surprised with some of the statistics that the movie showed. I thought that the numbers for things like how many people make a new myspace everyday because I believed the numbers to be very low.


I did not acturally find any of the facts to interesting, because I am not personally ammused by facts or imformation based on satistics. I did not find any imformation to be so out there that it may not be true but I did still find some of the facts to be unreal but still believable.

There is nothing in the video that i disagree with because i believe that they are reliable facts with correct numbers to support them. When I read the imformation I thought about my life and where I fit into all of those facts and how many things people do that I also do in my spare time.

Recreational Drugs

I don't believe that recreational drugs should ever be used so, elite sportsmen should have no reason to be allowed to do it either. The fact that the question of wether elite sportsmen should be allowed disgusts me.

Using recreational drugs is illegal and there is no real excuse that an elite sportsman should be able to use, no matter what someone thinks because they will only end up making themselves worse, and in the case of an elite sportsman there will be consequences to face. Elite sportsmen also have a very important role in the community as a person that our youth can look up to and use as a role model and should try to keep that role by keeping within our laws.

Elite sportsmen should not be tested for recreational drugs because it is their own choice that they knoe the consequences of, and if they do get cought they should suffer the same consequences that any normal person would suffer, because they are people to no matter how more well known they are.

Book V's Movie

I think that a book is better than a movie in the sence that a book gives a lot more detail than a movie does and a movie usually has alot of the book missing out, this is hard to tell and you do not realise unless you have read the book in the first place.

I have encounted one of these situations when i went to see the first harry potter movie. I had read the book before hand and was dissapointed to see so much information and detail left out in the movie.

I think that a book is better than a movie because you can gather alot more information from it, because it is more detailed and withholds more information about its subject in most cases. I personally have watched a movie for a subject and then read the book that the movie was based on, and saw first hand how much more knowledge that you can retain from a book than a movie in school situations.

Motorbikes

I am interested in motorbikes. I think that the best brand of motorbike if you are looking for a 2 wheeler is a kawasaki, and if you want a quad (a motorbike with four wheels) you should be looking at a yamaha raptor which goes from pw 50 to a gigantic 600. If you are my size you could be looking for a bike between a 150 to a 230 but if you are taller than me then you would be looking at a 250.

At home i only have quads but you can still have fun. I have yamaha raptors which are not your usual utility quad motorbike but are built for racing. The raptors are good because they are also good for jumps and do not need as much skill as a 2 wheeler bike and are much easier to controll with the landings.

I use motorbikes to just muck around in the padock or try to test my skill if that is with jumps which I build up the distances everytime or with a race against my family or friends.

Deadly Prospect

The manuscripts name is Deadly Prospect and its focus is on a boy named Lincon Mackenzie and his family’s struggles and how he uses motocross riding to escape these problems. He uses riding because when he is riding he feels like nothing else in the world matters, but even riding doesn't help him escape what his younger brother Glen is getting into.

The book will appeal to younger ages such as twelve to sixteen. This is because it uses problems that a young teenager may be faced with and expresses feelings that they would feel. Lincon also is into what most teenagers are into and his reactions are very much the same as well.

This book will sell exceptionally well because of its relation to many of the audiences lives, and the excitement brought to the reader through the detailed adventurous righting of Fleur Beale who also wrote the popular book Playing To Win.
