I did a memory of 20 english words from the pages we read that week!

Broken soup character tracer

I chose to right about the character Bee because she plays a very big part in the ending of the book. In the beginning we didn't knew a lot about bee but as the book went along we found out more and more. Rowan met Bee at school and they become closer and closer after the boy Harper gave the dropped photo to Rowan. Bee got more and more curious and pushed Rowan to develop the negative photo and i think the reason why she was so curious was the she was the one who rely dropped the negative in the store. 

I get the feeling that Bee is a very good hearted person who just want the best for all her loved ones. She cares very much about Rowan and a example of that on page 203 were Rowan is on the hospital with her mom and suddenly Harper walks in and thats made Rowan feel so much better. Jack told Rowan that Bee came on her bike looking for him and banged on all the windows to wake him up. I think that the thing Bee did was a very goodhearted thing to do for somebody, because Bee knew that it would mean a lot to Rowan. 

In the book Bee keeps a lot of secrets from Rowan like that she didn’t told her about that she was the one who took and dropped the photo of Jack in the shop. She also kept the big secret that they dated and that she and Jack got a baby named Sonny. But I think she kept all the secrets because she didn’t want to lose their good friendship that they had built up. They meant too much for each other, so she didn’t dare losing Rowan. 

Broken soup - creative connector

I chose to connect the book ’’Broken soup’’ to The big movie Titanic. I love the movie titanic and when i was reading our pages till this week it was the only thing that pop up in my head. My thought behind it was that in the movie Titanic one of the main characters died and the other one stayed alive. Jack drowned in the ice cold water and Rose got saved in the water by a life boat and continued to live on life. Its a little bit funny i think, the Jack in titanic and Rowans brother Jack both die drowning. Like rose in the movie Rowan continue to live on and missing Jack. 

Thats a great connection i think. 

Broken Soup - summarizer

During the trip to Neapel he droped his magical books and left his magical powers in the ocean.

Love text

You might find it easy to fall in love with someone, the hard thing is how to keep that someone forever. But as they say, love is like a book. Sometimes its good to not know the ending, just take one chapter at a time. But that is the challenge of love, fighting, without knowing how to win.

Stonecold

The book Stonecold are from two different perspectives. Link is one of the main characters in the book and shelter is the other one. Link is a teenager and lives on the streets of london.

PRAO

I had my work experience at a store called Bik Bok, It’s a store in the shopping center Nova Lund. I believe that it was a very fun and a good work experience but at the same time it was also very tough and hard work for me. It all started with that I went to Bik bok and presented me for the local boss in the store, I told her about myself and stuff like where I went too school, witch age I have and so on. The boss said that it was good that I came up and introduced myself instead of calling and therefore i got the practice job. 

I got to do lots of different things there and that led to that I never got tired of the job, not even once. My work hours were between 10 am to 4pm. I got to do stuff like customer service, helping customers with things like getting a different size or get stuff in the layer for them. That was the easy part of my work experience, I also did stuff like packing up new products, pricing labeling clothes, cleaning the store and the changing rooms. The funniest thing I got to do was that I got to try the new clothes that came in to the store. I was photographed, excluding my face and the pictures went out on the internet as advertising for the garments. The last day at my work experience I got to choose a free top in the store which made me very happy because I shop alot at BikBok.

My story

My name is Helena André and I going to tell you a story about a train trip. This was not a normal train trip, somebody got murdered one of the nights. 

It all started on a cold December morning, me and my husband jumped on the Taurus Express train that was going to take us home to England were we lived. I was only 19 when I married my husband Rudolf Andre but I knew that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with him. Rudolf André works as a diplomat and has been in Istanbul at the Hungarian embassy. I enjoy traveling with him in his job. I married my husband a year ago and now we are on our way home to London where we both are living together. 

When we first jumped on to the train I got surprised, I didn’t know that there would be so many people on the train. I got a little bit scared because I didn’t feel comfortable around all this individuals. I think it is because Im coming from a upper class family. I’m a very shy person and I don’t say that much if I don’t have to. The conductor escorted us to our compartments. I slept in number four next to my husband in the compartment number five. When we walked by all the rooms I noticed that there was a post-it the door to compartment number two. The post-it said ’’DO NOT ENTER’’ with big letters. I felt that the message was weird and I wondered who lived there. Did the person who lived there have something to hide?

About 7 o'clock we went to the dining car. I was so hungry, I hadn't been eating anything since breakfast. We sat down next to Mr. Ratchet and he talked for a long time about how good his company in America was and the fact that he was on his way home to America. He told us that when he would come home he was going to buy a new car that he had always wanted all his life but couldn’t afford to it till now. Mr. Ratchet and his wife would travel the world in this car he told us. He got married two years ago with his love of his life. He seemed very happy. Mr. Ratchet told us that his brother Coluner Arthur also was on the train trip, but that he felt tired and decided to stay in his compartment, which was number two all day. It was the room that had the post-it which said ’’do not enter’’. Mr.Ratchet told us that he had had his door closed the whole time they've been on the train. Mr.Ratchet and his brother jumped on this train about tree days ago. I wondered why he had not wanted to go out for three days. Was he mad or something? 

After we had been talking for almost two hours, Mr.Ratchet told us that he ware very tired and that he had to go to bed. At this point there were just me and my husband at the table. We played some cards for a wile, until we got tired and decided to go to bed as well. While the conductor made up our beds I took a sleeping drought. I usually do this when I’m on train trips. It’s just because i’m not used to all the noised. Home in London it's still and quiet all the time. I gave my husband a goodnight-kiss and went to bed. 

Suddenly I looked up, the alarm clock showed 1.56 am. I wondered why I had woken up, maybe the sleeping drought wasn’t that strong? I needed to go to the toilet, so I put on my robe and my slippers and walked down the hallway. It was quiet and dark, but I could still see where I went because it was a few lights along the hallway. All the doors ware closed but the post-it on Coluner Arthur's door was still there. I went out from the toilet and realised that the lights were switched off in the hall now. I couldn’t see anything so I decided to walk faster towards my room. Suddenly I noticed that the room number two was open. I started to walk faster and faster, I still couldn’t see anything. When I finally made it to my door I could swear that I heard footsteps in the Hallway. I didn't give much thought to the steps tho, and went back to sleep again.

I woke up because I heard lots of noise in the hallway, people were talking to each other. 

I went out to hallway and was greeted by a large gathering of people who stood talking and some was crying. Mr. Swanson came up to me and told me what terrible thing had happened during the night. She told me that the conductor found Mr. Ratchet murdered this morning when he was going to clean his room. He had been stabbed with a knife and was found in his bed killed.  Mrs Hubbard's found the bloody knife in her beauty bag early this morning, she go so frightened that she passed out. Mr. Swanson said that on the dead body, there was a piece of paper with a note on it. 

It stood ’‘you were the only one that knew my secret, this was the only way...’’

I ran to compartment number two and slammed up the door. The window was opened and  Coluner Arthur was gone...

My favorite invetion

I chose the computer as my favourite invention because you have all that you need on it. You can surf on the net or watch movies or whatever you want to do. You can play computer games on it like The sims or World of warcraft and you can even play online games on the net. If you want you can video chat and talk to your friends. On the computer you can also find facts about almost anything you want to know. You can search for recipes if you want to cook, lyrics or chords if you want to sing or play an instrument. But one thing thats bad about the computer is that you can get addicted to it and its quite big and heavy and you can’t carry it like the phone, you can search things on the phone too.

I have a problem...

Dilema 2:
If you are having a problem with your dad I think that the best way to solve the problem you have with him is by talking to him. Tell him that you are unhappy and that you need to have a talk. I don't think he wants a daughter that is unhappy.

I believe that you should start with telling your father that you want to hang out with your friends, It's better to wait with telling him about the boy you want to meet. You have to tell him that you are not willing to stay home your whole life. You are a girl that wants to have fun with your friends rather than staying home with your father. 

I mean, have you ever asked him why you are not allowed to hang out with your friends on the weekends? I believe that he cares about you a lot, more than you can imagine. Maybe he's just worried about you? If you really want to go out with this guy that want to see you, you can start by asking if you could meet at daytime, instead of in the evening. 

The most important thing you have to do is talk to your father, otherwise, he will never know what's on your mind.

English dialog

A good friend

I think a good friend is someone who is always there for you when you need it. Someone whom you can laugh and cry with. But the most important thing is that you can be yourself with your friend. Someone who's listening to you and understands you. A person that you can see yourself having a lifelong friendship with. Someone that you see as a sister to you. Someone that you have a lot of memories with and then when you look back in time you canlaugh about. Just someone that you always can count on.

Lockie's diary

Dear diary, today a realised one thing. I am actually a rely bad person. Maybe I should realised this a little bit earlier, than everything would be so bad right now. I am a bad son to my mother. Because when we have this meeting about the environment project about saving the river. I didn’t helped her at all. She was the one that got to do all the hard work. So was it with Egg to. Egg asked me if I could do the speech for the environment project. I sad yes but I lied. I said that I was going to practise the speech somewhere quiet. So I went to the Wind farm, but I didn’t go there for practise the speech. The truth is that Dot asked me if wanted to meet me there. I couldn't say no, I was so in loved with her and what if she wanted to kiss me there? But a didn’t get an answer because she did’t came. I waited a long time for her but then i suddenly remember the environment meeting. When i come home everyone was gone and Egg was very angry at me. I’ve let him down but i think we will be friends again. He is my best friend after all.
Godnight
