Sat, 22 May 2010 03:30:56 -0700 Entry 16 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-16-0 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-16-0 We ate and ate until our stomach was full of food. Then, we packed our equipment and stuff and then head back to the holler. We talk all the way from that house to the front gate of the holler. Tiller and Sairy talk to each other and we heard that they were talking about too. Back at the Boxton Creek Home, Mrs. Trepid stood in front of a window in her house watching the trash cans fall and make loud noise. She was thinking back when she first met Florida and me. It was a best time even in her life, but now we were gone so she is very lonely, but anyway she still has Mr. Trepid. She was thinking back and back. She saw a woman walked by swinging her arms. It keeps on annoying her until she shouted at someone to stop the trash cans from swing and felling. At Ruby holler, tiller and Sairy told us that we can have free time which mean that we can play, jump, hop, and other. We were decided if we are going to escape again or just stand there or should we go to the trip with tiller and sairy. While that, we were playing on the other side of the hill swing, sliding, jumping, and other. They were swinging on the swing and talk. It was very dark outside. There were many thunders and lightning. At night time, every one of us was facing a nightmare. Florida has a bad dream, and also Tiller, sairy, and as well as me. It was very scary!

Sat, 22 May 2010 02:16:00 -0700 Entry 15 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-15-4 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-15-4

We follow them to a room at the bottom floor of the house. It like where they shore food and other resources. Florida and I were in a dark, smelling room that is full of disgusting thing such as rat, snake, and other. I was very sleeping, but it is hard to sleep. We talk almost the whole night and suddenly our brain turned off. We were sleepy and we got ready to sleep on the sleeping bag that we have pack while we were with Tiller and Sairy. Florida couldn't sleep and when she turned to talk with me I was already snoring. When I wake up it was still dark. Everybody in the house was already asleep except Florida and me. I was very, very hungry and so was Florida. I didn't know that she was hungry as well. We have another conversation during our sleep time. We decided that we will going to escape one more time. This place is very horrible. We slowly, quietly, and carefully step outside the room, down the hall, and finally outside. When we reached outside it was already morning. We take a deep breath and suddenly in front of us were Tiller and Sairy. We were very, very surprised. On their hand was a large plate with delicious food and candy. We were very lucky because if we didn't come out, we wouldn't saw Tiller, Sairy, and all of that home-make food. We also asked them how they knew that we were her. They said that Sairy saw us escape and they thought they we were trying out their new equipment that they will take to their trip. We ate bacons, pancakes, candies, and other food.

Wed, 19 May 2010 18:35:00 -0700 God and Goddesses http://pamss.posterous.com/god-and-goddesses http://pamss.posterous.com/god-and-goddesses

Describe three ways the ancient Greeks honored their gods and goddesses.

 -They honored their god and goddesses by giving something to them so that they will receive something good and special from the god or goddesses. Another way that they honored the god is to have competition, which is known as Olympic game. The third way that they honored is to kill the animal and give it to the god by honoring them.

If you were a Greek god or goddess, which one would you be and why?

 - I would be Apollo because he is good at music and he is kind and is also helpful.His name is similar to the spacecraft called Apollo11 and 13. He was the one who bring Achilles into the Trojan War where Achilles and other heroes won the Trojans.

What is an oracle and how was it connected to the gods and goddesses?

 - An oracle is a special person, who knows the future. He was conneted to god as he knows the god's plan and can discover the future by many ways that god sent to him for example the way the bird flew, the shape and color of the liver of a sacrificed animal.

After viewing the prezi, write one question you have and one god/goddess/hero/myth you'd like to learn more about.

- One question that I have during the prezi was:

Why did kronus swallowed his son and daughter?

I like Apollo because he was a kind and helpful god. He is good at music and his name was like the spaceship.

Wed, 19 May 2010 18:25:00 -0700 Council and Assembly http://pamss.posterous.com/council-and-assembly http://pamss.posterous.com/council-and-assembly

1. What is the main job of the Council in ancient Athens?

- The main job of council in Athens is to list the problems that the citizen are facing and then they will send them to the assembly.

2. What is the main job of the Assembly in Athens? Also, how do they do their job?

- The main job of the assembly is to debate and vote for the problems and then solve them.

3. How did democracy in Athens change the way citizens were treated?

- They have right to debate and they can have a chance to be in the council or the assemble. And the gorvment worked for the people such as building a 

  public school for children. IN Greek, the gorvment worked for people, but in other ancient civilization the people worked for gorvment.

Sat, 15 May 2010 19:22:54 -0700 Entry 14 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-14 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-14 We were very patient because if they spot us trying to escape they might lock us in a room or they might send us back home. (Boxton Creek Home). What will happened if they kwon that we are escaping? Will they miss us? Will they be happy that we are not there? Will they be lonely, sad, and angry? Is it the right thing to do? Do you think that we will scare them to death? Who know? We will be moving now. We have been waiting for the night train for 13 year already. Finally our dream has become true. In tiller and sairy' room, they are still awoke, but luckily they didn't spot us yet. A few minute later, sairy went downstairs to find something. She didn't notice anything, but she said that the house was very quite. She reached for a box where she had put all of her and tiller's photo in the box. It was a photo of her in the wedding dress. In the photo tiller and sairy were getting married with each other. Tiller who is upstairs was also thinking about when his daughter was facing a fever. He was very worried. First they decided that they will go to the trip alone, but now they decided that they will go with other people, which include me and Florida. While that Florida and I were escaping we meet a little scary house. Suddenly, one old man came out and the other one came out. They were very old people that lived together. One was a man and the other was a woman.

Fri, 14 May 2010 06:32:20 -0700 Entry 13 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-13-0 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-13-0 After we visit Mr. and Mrs. Trepid we went back to ruby holler. It was super hot out there. Florida has already finished building the boat. Tiller and Florida was very happy! Florida earns extra money for finishing the boat. A few hours after that, Sairy and I were finishing up the list of equipments. I also earn extra money. (Lots of money). We kept it safely under our pillow, in our shoe, in the pocket, and others. We decided that we were going on the night train this night. In the other room next to our room were Tiller and Sairy. They were not asleep yet and they were talking about us. We remember that our birthday was on the 29th July. After that, they went back to sleep. Sairy blew the candle out. In our loft, Florida and I were escaping out of our room carefully and quietly. We walked down the stair, but before we went down Florida was thinking back when she was young. In the room, there was Florida, me, and one little girl. Mr. Cranbep said that her name was Gigi. She likes to spit on us while we were asleep in our bedroom. (At Ruby Holler) we continue to walk down slowly.

Sun, 09 May 2010 01:33:56 -0700 entry 12 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-12 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-12 They nearly caught us planning to steal the money and spy them. But they did not ask. How lucky am I. we also decide that we will bury our money like them too. We think that it is cool to have our own understone fund. We make a trip to Boxton Creek Home. Again Mr. Trepid, the head of the house or our father was standing in front of the house. I think that he was waiting for someone or something. He was still angry at us for any reasons. We decide not to go in, but unfortunately he slowly walked toward us. We have a small conversation with Mr. Trepid. After that we went back and we pass Mrs. Trepid. She was standing with a baby in her hand. Sairy told with her while we were in the car ready to leave.

Sat, 08 May 2010 20:22:19 -0700 entry 11 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-11-0 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-11-0 We went down to eat pancake with Marble syrup, and other special and delicious food. We never eat this delicious food before. It was almost our first time. We accidently break the window in out bedroom. We asked Sairy if she has any rules, but her answer was NO. She said that most houses have rules except her house. Tiller almost has some common rules. Tiller was making a list of final items that we will needed for the river journey. They needed more money because they have not enough money so secretly, they told us about the secret of the undertone funds. It was the place where they both hide each of their money. It kind of like a bank. We decided that we will secretly follow them up and down the paths and to the secret place. A few minute pass, we got stuck in the trap. When they got back they couldn't find us. Luckily they went back and saw us and they helped us. We were safe!!

Sat, 08 May 2010 20:19:14 -0700 entry 10 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-10-0 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-10-0 I was outside with Florida in the garden while Tiller and Sairy were talking to each other. We were chopping down tree, but not a normal tree. It is a special Marble Tree that Tiller planted with his dad when he was young. Tiller loved it so must because it represents his children that he once take care of them, but now they were separate. They all went out to find jobs, families, friend, and education. Tiller was very mad at us. That not all, Florida and I have cut I hole in the barn because Tiller said that in there was dark with no lights. We make it like a window for light, air, and natural wind to flow in. we want to help Tiller and Sairy worked. Now Tiller was even mad that us. In the next morning, Florida was standing in front of their room. She was looking at the rocker, a wooden swing chair in the corner. They talk and talk. Florida wants to swing on the chair, but she afraid that she will break it. An hour later, in front of Tiller and Sairy's room, Florida was swing on the wooden chair. Back at the Boxton Creek Home, Mr. and Mrs. Trepid, they miss Florida and me very much. They were thinking of a good time when we all stand as one. They remembered that when one boy called Joey, once lived with them and one day he sadly died. Mr. Trepid was very very sad.

Sat, 08 May 2010 20:17:03 -0700 entry 9 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-9-1 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-9-1 They talk and talk. Sometime they like to talk about Mr. trepid and Ms. Trepid. While they were talking Florida and I went for a walk at the back garden and playing with the wooden model. It was fun than I though. I like to play with things and sometime it was fun. The one thing that I like was when I play with Florida . She was very kind and she has lots of spirit. It was dinner again, but this time it's not normal because the food is very delicious with ketchup. Tiller teaches us how to whistles and it was hard for him. We were dreaming about different kind of thing such as a cake, bird, and others. But one of my favorite dreams was sitting under a leafy tree. It was very quiet, beautiful, and peaceful. Sometime it was strange and sometime it was wonderful. One day, I dream about that sliver bird hopped along the bank. The sliver bird stopped in front of me and it cocked its head and it said "There is a place where you can go, where everything is-" A bird can talk?? The bird kept on talking.

It was very beautiful shape of a wooden bird and a wooden boat. It was a small model made out of wood at the garden outside. It was belonged to Sairy and Tiller. If we break it guess what will happen. Who knows maybe punishments? While we were looking at it, Sairy came in. We were surprise and suddenly we drop the wooden model. We were scared and worry, but she said that it was alright. Nothings will happen. We were happy that she didn't get mad at us. Sairy show us the others wooden model around. There were many different king of model. Some were small and some were big. Florida was wondering where did Sairy got the wood from. She said that she got it from the garden. We walk to the garden at the back. What a beautiful and quiet garden? She teach us how top made them and I think that it is easy. Suddenly, Tiller walk in and shout that us. "What going on?" They decide to fix it with knives.

Sun, 02 May 2010 00:25:47 -0700 Entry 7 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-7-2 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-7-2 Tiller told Florida that she will get fifty cent an hour. They work and work all day. In the other hand, Sairy and I were making a list of things that we will need for the trip to Kangadoon. We went to find the equipments. After that they were talking about new stuff so Florida and I were thinking back when we were little. We got to play with new stuff, but when we got older Mr. and Ms. Trepid take away out toys. After that day, Florida came and shows me the money that she earns from Tiller. I also earn money too. Sairy called us down to have breakfast, a delicious dumpling and chicken. We talk together about the night train. But in the end, we decide that we will stay for another day. After dinner, Tiller was a bit angry. I was just wanted to help Tiller worked. I like to try many different things, but it was hard. Sairy step in and she went to talk to Tiller while I was outside. Tiller wanted us to leave. Sairy gave the cake to Tiller and she told him to share it with Florida and me. The next morning, Florida was at the barn working and Tiller walked in. They were tried so they talk together about what had happened in the past that will be in Tiller's memory. It was about Tiller when he was a child working with his father in his barn. After they had a rest they got too worked. Finally, Sairy and I found all of the equipments and she told me that the equipment that I found were very creative. At night, we gather all the money that we earn and kept them under our pillow. We're going to be a gazillionairs. In the night at the dinner, Tiller pass out a bowl of spaghetti to everyone. It was delicious. We were talking together happily during the dinner time.

Sat, 24 Apr 2010 20:50:59 -0700 Entry 6 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-6-1 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-6-1 Tiller and Sairy were talking together in their room in front of a mirror beside the bed. Then Sairy went to sleep, but Tiller was still thinking about something. The next morning, I was at the kitchen looking at the photographs on the wall. They were like a puzzles. Something in this picture matched with someting in the picture. I was talking to Florida. Florida enter the cabin with the egg in her hand. A pale blue egg with tiny black-and-white speckles. She think that it is a bird egg. She hold it so that it is warm and she went to the room to put the egg under her pillow. She scraped the egg one end with her fingernail. The egg crack and slowly the little bird came out. Florida remember her past that she got in trouble and now she was sad and wondering who was the one who slapped her hand. She got angry so she put the broken egg against the wall and threw the pillows one by one. Next morning, Tiller was thinking that he will sent the Florida and me to the river trip. After the breakfast, Florida and I need to go to fix the boat. Florida got a bit grumpy. Tiller think that he could take Florida and me back home to Boxton. Tiller and Floirda were in the barn. They were fixing up the boat.

Sat, 24 Apr 2010 19:54:00 -0700 Entry 5 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-5 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-5

As we rode onto a narrow dirt road Florida and me stared out of the window at the winding road ahead. We got out of the truck. It was a amazing place I ever seen. There were hills.Still Florida was was planning to caught the nght train. First, I tought that we must sleep in the hog pen, but lucky they have changed. We got to sleep in same room as the other kid. It was kind of like a tree house with a beautiful view, soft and comfortable bed, wooden ladder that lead to the room up here. They don't have a seperate room for us to sleep. Florida was still thinking and as she turn around to talk to me I fell asleep. At last, she was sleeping on the bed. Florida think that we were like Hansel and Gretel. Tiller and Sairy called downstair for a wonderful table with a yellow tablecloth. Spread across it was a sliced ham, warm applesauce sprinkled with cinnamon, hot corn bread, and green beans. There were four set. It was delicous !!! That night I fell asleep very quickly before Florida. Florida kept waking and talking to me. One time I woke up to talk to her and I sleep again. I had a wonderful dream in contrast with Florida, who had a scary dream.

We all talk for a long time in the office. Our parent was senting us on a summer camp;. A far far away camp. I was separate from Florida because our parent said that we can't jion the summer camp together. It might be a boing camp without Florida , but anyway it is only for three months. We isn't that interested because last summer we were sent to a strange house. Boring!! I was sent to Kangadoon and Florida was sent to a river trip across the state to the R utabago river. I was daydreaming while Mr. and Mrs. Trepid weretalking and introducing the places. We went to sleep and Florida plan to escape. In the morning , we went to eat breakfast and went in the car with one woman and one man. They were the one that take us on a summer and they will guide us everywhere.

Fri, 16 Apr 2010 04:15:59 -0700 Entry 3 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-3-4 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-3-4 20 miles from Boxton was Ruby Holler. Meanwhile, Florida and I were sitting at the dinning room waiting for the others to come. We sat at the far corner of the table. We were not allow to sit on the long benches with the other kids because Mr. Trepid didn't want them to learn bad habits from us. Some were older and some were younger than us. When everyone join the dinner, Florida got in trouble. After the hard work, I went to sleep. Florida had a nightmare so I went to talk with her until she fell asleep. In the morning , I was showing 1 boy how to throw a tennis ball and suddenly it crash throught the window. I got in trouble.
I was sent to the Thinkling Corner. Later, I got to get out of the Thinking Corner. Finally !! As I step out, I saw Florida standing next to Mr. Trepid. After that Mr. and Mrs. Trepid sent Florida and me to their Office. And the door closed. Mr. Trepid said that he will take Florida and me somewhere else. I looked at Florida. We heard this before. Many times.

Tue, 13 Apr 2010 21:05:00 -0700 Entry 2 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-2-6 http://pamss.posterous.com/entry-2-6

After the Thinking Corner followed by two hours of Floor scrubbinig and two hours of weed pulling. It was horrible !! My father was a short and squat man with an awkward walk like a crab scuttling across the ocean floor who believed that these punishments were good things for children. The Home was a misfit operation. Before there were inspectors came into the house and they were checking to see if we are healthy, but now they were no longer a doctor or an inspector. It was now run solely by the Trepids with the help of their overworked assistant, Morgan, who referred as Chief Gopher. On the front of the building  was a faded yellow paint curled in strips, like a peeling skin. I thought that it looked like a string of mismatched boxcar laid end to end, and Florida tought that it looked like a dragon with a huge mouth. " Rotation " my father said which mean that children came and went and some were taken to the foster families or adopted. Some run away and never returned. At night Florida and I had a plan. we were going to jump on the night freight train and ride out of the town. Soon.

Fri, 09 Apr 2010 21:33:00 -0700 Entry 1 http://pamss.posterous.com/la-ruby-holler-1 http://pamss.posterous.com/la-ruby-holler-1

My name is Dallas. I am a daydreaming and quiet boy. I lived with my parent, sister called Florida, and more. Florida and I are twins and we are the oldest children in the family. We are tall for our age, dark haired, and dark-eyed. I lived in Boxton Creek Home, which is known as the Home for children. It is an old house in a busy town. In the morning, I was watching peacefully at a silver bird on the window and suddenly it flew away. I wish that it would come back. Maybe the bird flew home. I was daydreaming in my room, leaning at the window when Mr. Trepid, my father called me to come down. My house has many rules for example no running and no throwing posted everywhere around the house. My sister and I knew the rules well because we had broken every rules, many times. If we disobey any of the rules we will be punished by standing at the thinking corner for 2 hours. Boring!!! Florida is a talkative girl and she always argues when she is in trouble.
