I am from endless books,

Acoustic guitars,

And a full pantry.

I am from a beautiful flower garden,

Circling the yard with an array of intermixing colors.

I am from dog toys and tiki torches,
I am from grass and pavement.

I am from Franklin School,

I am from pizza market,

The sweet slumber of West Newton at night.

I am from Uncle Chris,

I am from Road Island with the Hydes.

I am from Galen, talking to me every year.

I am from “Get to bed at a reasonable hour tonight.”
I am from “I’m not in the mood for this right now!”
from “I love you, goodnight sweetie.”

I am from huge thanksgiving turkeys,
from tiramisu and mashed potatoes,

From food that makes my mouth water

Every time I think about it.

I am from under my bed,
I am from in my closet,

I am from my computer and from my kitchen drawers,

Hiding little pieces of paper

With little secrets

And little emotions.

Dear annoying kid at pool party:
Stop asking me for things. Stop bribing me with chocolate and then telling me to get in the pool. I don't want to go in the pool, I was already in the pool, and now I am obviously not in the pool anymore. I chose to be out of the pool, and if I don't finish this HP book, someone is bound to spoil it for me. I am basking in the sun, leave me alone. Also, on the ride home, you started bitching and moaning about how you wanted water. We told you that it would be 10 minutes before you could get it, but no, "I want it now! Mommy, I want water! Im really thirsty! I'll screeeEEEEEAaaaAaAAmmmm!" Shut up, kid, we're all thirsty, and crying out like, 45 gallons of tears over something as petty as having to wait 10 whole minutes for a fucking glass of water isn't going to quench your thirst. I hate you. Go die in a puddle. At least then you'd shut up. -Emma

Name: Marissa
Composition: Rocky
Distance from the sun: 65 million miles

Diameter: 2,900 miles

Avg. Surface Temperature: 1150ºF
Number of Rings: None
Number of Moons: None
Length of Day: 136 Earth Days
Length of Year: 59 Earth Days
Trends followed: Marissa is only 65 million miles away from the sun because in our solar system, small, rocky planets are closer to the sun. Also, it has no rings and no moons, because of it’s size and distance from the sun. It has a short year, which also implies it’s one of the hotter planets.

Name: Kara
Composition: Rocky
Distance from Sun: 650 million miles
Diameter: 5,030 miles
Avg. Surface Temperature: 886ºF

Number of Rings: None
Number of Moons: 1
Length of Day: 110 Earth Days
Length of Year: 64 Earth Days
Trends Followed: Kara continues the “Farther from Sun, larger the planet” trend, as it is larger than Marissa, but not larger than Kim. It’s also a Rocky planet and closer than the gas planets. It also continues the “Farther from sun, colder the temperature” trend, as it’s still very hot, but not as hot as Marissa. It’s year is shorter than it’s day, this suggests it’s a hotter planet, closer to the sun.

Name: Kim
Composition: Rocky
Distance from sun: 993 million miles
Diameter: 12,380 miles
Avg. Surface Temperature: 439ºF

Number of Rings: None
Number of Moons: None
Length of Day: 91 Earth Days
Length of Year: 73 Earth Days
Trends followed: Rocky planets are closer to the sun, and the further from the sun, the colder the average surface temperature is. It’s year is shorter than it’s day, this suggests it’s a hotter planet, closer to the sun. This planet is not consistent with the larger that they are, the farther away from the sun, because Miriam is smaller than Kim.

Name: Miriam
Composition: Gas
Distance from sun: 1,999 million miles
Diameter: 7,670 miles
Avg. Surface Temperature: 286ºF

Number of Rings: 2
Number of Moons: 1
Length of Day: 76 Earth Days
Length of Year: 100 Earth Days
Trends followed: I’ve learned that generally, the gas planets are situated father from the sun. Also, as the planets get further from the sun, the surface temperature goes down and the Diameter of the planet goes up. The more moons there are, the bigger the planet. Also, generally only gas planets have rings. It’s year is longer than it’s day, which suggests it’s a gas planet, or farther from the sun.

Name: Ilana

Composition: Gas
Distance from sun: 2,783 million miles
Diameter: 19,470 miles
Avg. Surface Temperature: -293ºF

Number of Rings: 3
Number of Moons: 2
Length of Day: 45 Earth Days
Length of Year: 123 Earth Days
Trends followed: The colder planets are farther from the sun, because in our solar system the planets become colder. Also, the larger they get, the more moons they get, and for gas planets, the more rings. It’s year is longer than it’s day, which implies it’s farther from the sun.

Name: Nuala

Composition: Gas
Distance from sun: 4,286 million miles
Diameter: 24,384 miles
Avg. Surface Temperature: -640ºF

Number of Rings: 7
Number of Moons: 5
Length of Day: 3.5 Earth Days
Length of Year: 598 Earth Days
Trends followed: This is the last planet – from what our solar system tells us, this means it’s the coldest, because the cold planets are always farthest away from the sun. It is also the largest, which leads us to believe it has the most moons and rings. All of these are true – because it’s the largest, this also implies it has the shortest days and the longest years (which is true). It’s a gas planet so it’s far from the sun, and it has rings (because it’s a gas planet).

Mi Viaje a Martha’s Vineyard

By Emma Hyde
Anaranjado 8-1

En mi viaje, fui al Martha’s Vineyard. Fue muy divertido. Fui con mis amigas. Llegamos de noche, y nadamos en la playa. Nosotros nos sentamos también en el jacuzzi, pero éramos muy fríos y nosotros salimos. Comimos la cena y luego nosotros dormimos.

Por la mañana, los padres de Marissa nos manejaron centro comercial. Compramos ropa y fuimos también a la arcada. Cabalgamos también el carrusel. Fuimos a la casa de Marissa y dormimos otra vez.

Por la mañana, en el paseo del barco a Boston, yo me sentía muy enferma y pensé que iba a desamayarme. Jugué muchos juegos de naipes mientras estuve en el barco.

El barco fue morado y azul y fue muy fuerte. Yo lo pasé muy bien y mis amigos y yo tuvieron nos reímos mucho.

Después de que volviéramos de nuestro viaje, yo fui a la recitación de baile del Nuala. Ella fue muy impresionante.

Tuve un fin de semana muy bueno, y yo lo adoré.

The Rising Sun Sets in Heaven
A Play by Kim

[In Jack’s office]
JACK: Not to worry, Miss. I’ll… WE’LL take care of it.

PENELOPE: I wasn’t worried, Jack. What worries me is that you think you’re in love with me, and you think you’re some honest to god detective! Besides, you know I’m engaged to Jake, I mean, how could you even think about betraying your brother?

JACK: Brother? I think you’ve got your use of the word wrong, Penelope. But anyway. I’ll take care of everything you asked me to, you know that.

P: Fine, fine.

[Girl comes into office]
GIRL: Hello?

JACK: Oh! We’re in here, miss.

GIRL: Oh, hi.

JACK: Jack.

GIRL: Si- [cut off by Penelope]

P: PENELOPE! [shoves hand in middle where no one takes it]

SILVER: [glances at both, shakes head slightly] Silver.

P: Oh, what a pretty name! Well Jack, I really must be off, you know. Back home to Jake and all that.

JACK: Right, right. [unemotional, as per usual]

[secretary (Sandy) leaves as well]
SANDY: G’night, y’all!

JACK: ‘Night, Sandy.

SI: So, I hear you know people.

JACK: [taken aback] What?

SI: Oh, come on, Jacky. All of your enemies mysteriously lose jobs, resign, take leaves of absence, all the stocks you choose turn huge profits overnight… do you want me to continue.

[Jack gestures for her to stop]

[Silver grins]
SI: I try to be as direct as possible. Things are so much easier that way, don’t you think?

JACK: Perceptive. Very, very perceptive. [Long, awkward pause] very, VERY perceptive.

SI: Oh, like I’m the first to notice Jack Handler building an empire. I’m just the only one who really cares.

JACK: I’m sorry, I still don’t understand why you’re here…?

SI: [voice gets progressively higher in pitch as monologue continues] Of course Jack – I can call you Jack? I’m Silver Laurel, a junior associate at a law firm called Brieman & Reane. Our upper offices manage lawsuits that you put in action, yes, we know about how you got the money to start this business. The senior partners were told to keep quiet, remember? Right. Don’t worry, they didn’t break their promises. Amazing what some money slipped into the right pockets can do, huh? [nervous giggle] I must say – well spent, Jack. The payoff from your lawsuits were huge. Enough to start this little kingdom you’ve got here, and then expand. Your products are everywhere, Mr. Handler.

JACK: So, what do you want?

SI: You. Naw, that’s just a bit of business humor. [laugh]

[weak laughter from jack]

SI: Okay, so what I want is money.

JACK: Weeeeell, I can’t transfer any large amounts to you.

SI: [taken aback] what?!

[Jack’s cell phone rings]

JACK: [answering phone] yeah?

BUDA: Hey, it’s me, okay? Tim Budaped.

JACK: Oh hey, Buda. Whaddup?

SI: Who the hell are you talking to.

JACK: Um, um, um… My wife…

SI: No, you’re not.

JACK: Yeah, I am.

SI: I know you’re not.

JACK: [taken aback] What?

B: Hey, you got a girl there?

JACK: I’m in my office, Buda.

B: Hawt.

JACK: No, fata- Buda.

B: Seeya! [resonating click]

JACK: Well, that was stupid.

SI: Why do they call him Buda?

JACK: “Tim” apparently isn’t “him”.

SI: Well, the point is I’ll be here in 2 days time to collect money. You don’t mind if I stay in a guest room that you might have in your apartment, do you? My condo is broken and then they shut it down. And then rats invaded, then babies…really…big ones…

JACK: Fine, smart-aleck. Let’s us two get a cab [body slams SI]. Or we could get separate cabs. Your choice.

SI: Let’s just go, aight?

[arrive at apartment]

Jack: You can sleep on the futon in the den area.
SI: Neat. Thanks. See you tomorrow…[seductive] Jack.

[next day]

Jack: Yum. I love bacon for breakfast.

[SI enters]

SI: Freaking air vent in the den kept me up all night…[long pause] can I sleep in your room tonight…[seductive] Jack?

Jack: [sensing nothing amiss] Sure.

[at work]
SA: where’s your girlfriend, that girl?

JACK: Dunno whatcher talkin’ ‘bout.

TOMPLOY THE CAT: AOWWWWWW.

JACK: Oh, Sandy, you don’t mind if I brought my cat, Tomploy, in, do ya?

SA: No’t’all. Your phone’s a-ringin’!

[short pause, Jack’s phone begins to ring]
JACK: [taken aback] What? How did you…Ah, never mind.

SA: [mysterious smile on Sandy’s face]

JACK: [answers phone] Yeah?

GZI-GZI: [in poor French/Polish/Italian accent] Gzack? I came in today and saw some KHHO… just laying about. You know how I hate to see the prostitutes become lazy, so I put her to work. Just a-letting you know this, and I put your fat-bastard cat outside. I do not care eef this Manhattan, dumbass. Ciao! [resonating click]

JACK: [heavy-heartedly] Bye… [puts downs receiver missing base, knocks into coffee cup and spills on white shirt] Oh well. I’ll just go to the break room to fix it.

[Sandy sees Jack walking by with coffee stains]
SA: That looks like a whale of a problem there, Jack. [chuckles] Whale of a problem… Whale of a problem. [repeats & mutters to self about Whale of a Problem]

JACK: Oh hey, Mitsu!

[guy walking by yells “yo mitsu! Mitsu… mitsu…” develops beat, beatboxes and walks away]

MITSU: Hey man. Haven’t seen you around in like…forever. [nervous laugh] It’s crazy, inflation, the internet – you can’t really talk to anyone face to face anymore. [cough] ANDROIDS TAKING OVER! [cough] OH GOD!

[awkward silence]

MI: [continuing if nothing had happened nonchalantly] Anyway, I been dancing. [waggles hip] my pelvic thrust is like, rabid dog cray-zee!!!

JACK: [uneasy] well, I actually just wanted to get this coffee stain out of my shirt…[looks down, but coffee stain has vanished] OMG! Where’d that coffee stain go. [wanders out while finishing sentence]

[back at JACK’S house]

JACK: [upon seeing the mess SI left in the kitchen] Oh dear! [seizures, gargles]

Angels and Demons
Emma Hyde
Section 2

Both Bryan’s last speech and the excerpt we were given from Angels and Demons were written differently but said basically the same thing. Bryan’s Last Speech was written more formally, much more like an ending argument to a case. However, they are both trying to make the point that science will destroy us, and that we must stay true to our religious roots.

Bryan begins with a lengthy first paragraph that first speaks of how science has no morals, and then trails into how science makes war worse and worse, and makes more and more people die. He speaks of how science makes us more violent. He also mentions that the only way we can be saved is by religious morals, or Nazarene (Jesus). Bryan speaks of the malignance of science and how, even though we discover more through science, we are not taught what is right or wrong. He backs up his point with such phrases as “…and now we are told that the newly discovered instruments of destruction will make the cruelties of the late war seem trivial in comparison with the cruelties of ways that may come in the future.” This quote supports his point that science is slowly destroying us, and the reason that it’s a good quote is because it’s true. Our weapons probably will get more and more dangerous as time goes on, and who knows what might happen. He tells us that we need religious morals to keep us from doing wrong.

The camerlengo from the Angels & Demons excerpt thinks the same way that Bryan does. He also states that science will destroy us all, and that religion is the only thing that truly keeps us grounded from becoming completely erratic. The camerlengo powerfully states “The promises of science have not been kept. Promises of efficiency and simplicity have bred nothing but pollution and chaos.” This is true; nuclear wars and bombs have gone completely out of control; radiation killing thousands of people. Wars are getting worse and worse. He preaches to the masses, “Have we become so spiritually bankrupt that we would rather believe in mathematical impossibility than in a power greater than us?” This suggests that we have so little morality that we would rather, as he says, believe an equation than something better than humans.

I both disagree and agree with the camerlengo and Bryan. I agree in the sense that we are getting more violent; our wars are becoming more deadly and thousands and thousands of people are dying. I also disagree; I do not believe that religion has more place in this world than science and discovery; however, there are some morals that must be kept. Society should keep a place for their morals, as well as discovery. Overall, I believe people are too defensive on both sides, and if we just put both of them together and meshed them into one culture, I think that there would be less arguing (not that this is likely to happen). A meshing of the two opposing arguments, I believe, would work better than we suspect.

Sarah Diorite Igneous Rock Biography
Emma Hyde
section 3

Sarah Diorite was born in an incredibly hot magma flow inside the earth in Ancient Babylon from her parents, plagioclase feldspar and hornblende around 6 million years ago. She traveled to many places, such as Egypt, Italy, and Germany. She grew up in these places, living in statues and columns. When she was but a small child, she was nicknamed salt and pepper because of her dark and light spots. We still refer to her appearance by these names today. Her cousin was Granite. He often teased and mocked her about her spotted appearance, but the teasing didn’t affect her, and she stayed strong all these years. She was an incredibly hard rock, mentally AND physically. In fact, she was often told she was one of the hardest rocks around.

Her ancestors also were incredibly useful to ancient civilizations (like ancient Egypt and Rome), and they were used for many inscriptions and also as tools. Her great-great-great-grandfather got The Code of Hammurabi inscribed on one of his faces. Many of her ancestors were also famous statues or they held up houses – The Diorite family has been incredibly successful. Recently, the members of the Diorite family have been used to create roads or walkways because of their incredible durability. Her and her family were so useful because of their pure hardness. Very hard balls that were carved out of her ancestors bodies were once used to work granite a very long time ago. Diorite is difficult to carve or work with at all; but once sculpted, written upon, or carved, the art or written word lasts for an incredibly long time, probably centuries and centuries. We still use her family for this type of work today; sculptures, tablets and other arts.

Sarah is the result of melting parent rocks above a subduction zone. Fragments of her parents have melted, fused together to create their children. Her parents are smaller now, but they say it was worth every part that came off of them.

Sarah is a plutonic rock, meaning it cooled deep within the earth, far before it exploded out of a top of a volcano. She has little to no quartz; if she has more than 20% quartz, she is considered Granodiorite, which is another mineral. There are many mixtures that she may endure; for example, with more alkali feldspar, she becomes Monzonite; and with more of both of these minerals (quarts and alkali feldspar), she becomes just like her cousin Granite. If she had cooled outside the earth, she would’ve become Andesite instead. Occasionally, her distant family members have gotten stuck somewhere between the magma flow and places that are closer to the center of the earth, and they become xenoliths.

Sarah’s family is incredibly common in countries like Rome, Sweden, Scotland, Italy, Finland, and Egypt. You can also find some of her families cobblestone streets in various places around England, China, and Ecuador. states like California and Minnesota, and various other places around the USA. Many people mistake her and her family for Granite rocks. They are actually very closely related to Granite but not quite the same.

Sarah and her family were not just used for holding buildings up or creating sculptures; in some rare cultures, it was required for armies to go out on military expeditions for the sole purpose of mining and taking her family back to the cities the armies belonged to. It was also traded for high prices in some cultures. It also was used for Incan and Mayan weaponry, fortresses, and walls to keep the city safe.

Although Sarah and her family look dull and drab to the naked eye, their ability to polish is shocking. Some Egyptian pictographs have been carved on Diorite stones, and then they have been polished to a sheen. You can also see an example of this at St. Paul’s Cathedral located in London, where the Diorite have been polished from the centuries of travelers walking by.

Sarah has witnessed an Ice Age, and life in Ancient Egypt. She’s even been part of an Egyptian carving. Sarah is looking forward to being part of a couple more homes, possibly a statue or two, and then retire to a nice cobblestone street in Italy.

As it turns out...
