Movie Review Despicable Me By McKay J One of the best movies of the year is Despicable Me. It’s about an evil villain who takes in some orphans in order to steal back what was rightfully his. The best characters of the movie are the little yellow alien minions. They are so funny and come up with all kinds of crazy stunts. The true villain is a complete nerd and ends up being more evil than the main character. I give this movie Four and a half stars.

Movie Reviews

By: Stephanie G.
== This movie was based on a true story o f the boxer named Mickey Ward and his brother Dickey Eklunds. Growing up in a hick town in Massachusetts, these brothers are going through difficulties. Eklunds battles with drugs, while Mickey needs training to overcome the world championship in London. The brothers are fathers themselves and struggle to keep their lives going straight. This movie is very entertaining, and shows all the rough times they both had to go through. I give this movie four stars.==

Sports by. Sara S
Sports are important to the entertainment world. My favorite sport is Basketball. My favorite team is the Miami Heat. Yah Boy! Honestly to all the haters of my team ya’ll just jealous! I hate the Lakers; if Kobe Bryant retired there’d be no Lakers. I think everyone will agree with me when I say “Michael Jordan is the best baller ever.”

Music Review By: Mark Ryan B For all you Dubstep fans out there who are looking for something new and exciting, well I have something for you. Check out the artist Excision. His style of Dubstep is incredible. It is very wompy and has tons of bass. I recommend his Radio 1 mix, and his Excision Shambhala 2008 mix. He has a plethora of songs that will fit your requirements of good Dubstep. ( *5 Stars)Music Review

**// SKYLINE //** A movie I went and saw this weekend was Skyline. It was an alright movie but, it had a boring story line. The story line was aliens coming to earth and some sort of light they looked into,it pulled them in so they could get abducted. I thought it could have had more action and a better conflict but, it was all good until the end of the movie came up. It didn’t really make sense to me. Jesse

+ Video game review- Kill Zone 2 Well Kill Zone 2 has amazing graphics. You are in a town and it is being blown to shreds and It is almost the best game for PS3. I hope other people will play it and get good at it to because it is freaking awesome so play it. Kill Zone 2 is very hard but not to me because I love video games and I am good at them.

**Weird News of a Profound Nature**

** So last Wednesday, Slim Shady bought a new house. That night, his security system went off. When security did a perimeter check that night, they found nothing. The next morning they found a deer that had tried to jump over his fence. The deer’s leg had gotten stuck when it had tried to jump over the fence and when they found it, it was dead. I think that it is a possibility that it may happen again around the area the house is. ** **By Lee Knows.**

You said you loved me but what you didn’t tell me was you had another baby on the way. You said you would never do anything to hurt me but now I’m sitting here with a broken heart. You said you wanted to be with me forever but all you wanted was to get down my pants. You said you would never leave me but now you’re gone and you’re never coming back. You said you would die inside if anything happened to me but now I’m the one dying. By: Alica Oh and by the way everyone I finally graduated!!! But I’m waiting here still for placement. But most likely I’m going to a proctor home somewhere in Salt Lake. :)

Book review

By Betty The name of the book is called Beautiful Creatures. It is about a mortal boy who falls in love with a caster girl. She thinks she is going to go dark on her sixteenth birthday. Lena doesn’t know her real name until after she is claimed on her sixteenth birthday. Lena and Ethan share the same dreams and talk to each other without being near each other. Peace out by Magie

It’s been a while now since you’ve been gone, I think about you and watch the dusk turn to dawn, I remember that day so well, Watching over my shoulder as your body fell, Kneeling down on the ground, No one dares to make a sound, My tears start falling, It’s your name I keep calling, Blood is dripping, People are dipping, Sirens are blaring, People are staring, I want to let go, I don’t know why, Do I really want to die, The pain is to real, Do you know how I feel I’m so worn out I’m beginning to doubt I’m losing my grip My heart's beginning to rip I’m starting to slip  __ Horoscope __ The horoscope for the week is for all of the Pisces. Pisces will be happy, energetic, and anxious. You will get along with anyone and everyone you encounter this up coming week. You will also work out really hard in order to get those broad shoulders you have been working for. The Pisces will use their rational mind more than not this week. So if you are a Pisces, this week is going to be easy for sheezy. >>-(*C_*)->   -James Top 3 favorite songs

1.li’l Wayne-Crank Dat I like Li’l Wayne’s Crank Dat video because of the kind of clothes he wears and because of the words he says. I like the beat it has to the lyrics and I think he is a real successful artist.

2.Woodie-Blackbird I also like Woodie because he has sick tattoos and because of what they say. One of the reasons I like his music is because he has a good voice and I could listen to it all day.

3.The Game- My Life I like that song and video because it tells a story about a kid and I like how it rhymes.

By Alex A. My life I live a life of depression and drugs and even with abuse. I live a life in the ghetto and gangs all around me There was no way to run away from all my fears I always felt trapped with no way out. I live a life in which there was no way out I’d always be stuck no matter how hard I tried Run away from it It’s always gonna be there And there’s always gonna be pain in my life. I had no friends on which to lean and cry my problems to. I had no friends to give my love and hope and kindness to. I thought about it day and night And look up above and see the stars in the night sky. My mind was made up I was gonna end my life Just when my sister hugged me I couldn’t do it Because she means the whole world to me But I know I couldn’t leave her alone in this hard lifetime. This word ran though my mind so much I changed my mind about my life And changed my life around I thought about this special day And what my sister had said. I wasn’t trapped anymore She saved me from doing stupid things in my life I never thought I could do it without her being there to help me get through my life. Hey I was only 12 year old I never thought I would get this far But I guess it wasn’t my time to go. I'd always thought the whole world would be better without me But I guess I was wrong But now that I am 15 years old I look back and think of all I’ve been through And realize that it was worth living my life to the fullest I know I’ve gone through a lot But I never thought I would be sitting here in rehab only because of drugs But I realize that I can have a better future than I did in the past I’m forgetting the past and starting a new beginning……..

I would recommend this book to everyone who has been through something similar, and also people who haven’t been through anything like this. It will help everyone understand what people go through on drugs. I give this book a 5. By Mario.  When you feel the breezy air You know it’s a beautiful day for us all to share The nice and bright warm sun brought sun light to the town I looked around and couldn’t see anybody wearing a frown what a beautiful day For all the children to run and play Just remember sqeeze lemons and make lemonade What a great drink you have just made Poetry is from your thoughts and your brain So you let out the truth and the pain By Anthony G.   ARTEC POEM BY: ANGELICA Clovers are green, rainbows are all colors I’ve got some news to tell you fellers It’s the month of St. Patty and luck You need to wear green, if not you suck I’m just playing its just a joke You’ll get pinched and provoked Have some fun and just relax You’ll relieve some stress and that’s a fact.
