 * My favorite book is Soul Surfer, it is an autobiography. It is about a girl named Bethany Hamilton. She was attacked by a shark when she was 13. During that attack she lost an arm! She kept her faith in God and within three weeks she was back on the board. I really like this book because it is just an interesting book. I love the way she kept her faith in God, and how she was determined to be surfing by Thanksgiving.

We were given the opportunity to go to Rachel's Challenge assembly. Rachel's Challenge gave us these goals: 1. Eliminate Prejudice 2. Dare to Dream 3. Choose your Influences 4. Kind Words 5. Start a Chain Reaction The one that I am going to work on the most is using kind words toward others because I have said some not very nice things to people. But I have also had some not very nice words said to me, so I just want to change the way people talk to one another. The reason I want to change this is because what you say to others can make them feel like they are not important or they may think that no one likes them. We need to make someones day not just ruin it for them.
