Ky the Butterfly
Ky the Butterfly is a delightful little book for children about change. It starts off with Ky wanting to be different, so he acts like others so he may change. He tries doing mutliple things, but nothing helps him change into something else. One day, Ky does something on his own, and he changes into what he really needed to be.
My mom’s class of kindergartners absolutely loved this book. They actually asked my mother to read the book to them multiple times. Anyway, I recommend this book to any person that has children. It also teaches the life cycle of a butterfly. So, read it sometime, okay?!

R5
So, I am absolutely in love with the band R5. It is a band of siblings (those are always the best). Riker, Rydel, Ross, and Rocky Lynch. Ellington Ratliff is also in the band, and he is a very close family friend. Anyway, they all have amazing voices, and I am basically, gonna tell you about them on here.
Riker

Birthday: November 8, 1991
Him: Well, obviously, he’s cute! (; Anyway, You can catch him on Glee! He plays Jeff. He is a lead singer in his family’s band. His voice is amazing! (: Anyway, his twitter is @rikerR5 . Go check him out! (:
Rydel

Birthday: August 9, 1993
Her: She is the sole female among her siblings, and is definitely a combination of sass and beauty. She plays keyboard in R5, and is seen singing in multiple videos. So, yea, she is pretty amazing. Her twitter is @rydelR5 . Go check her out!!! (:
Ross

Birthday: December 29, 1995
Him: Oh, Ross! <3. He’s my age, so yay! Haha. Anyway, He sings and plays guitar in R5. He also plays Austin Moon on the Disney Channel show Austin & Ally. Austin & Ally is probably the best Disney show that they have made in a long time. I absolutely love it, and how each episode shows how close these teens are. Anyway, I can ramble on and on about him….but, I sadly have a limited amount of space and two more people to talk about, so his twitter is @rossR5. You have to check him out! ( I am commanding you!) lol.
Rocky

Birthday: November 1, 1994
Him: Oh, the lovely Rocky. First, I LOVE his name! (: He, according to their awesome website, is known as the
Quiet One”. He is actually, the main founder of their band, so THANK YOU, ROCKY! He plays guitar for the band, and creates most of their music. Anyway, sadly, he doesn’t have a hit role on some “fancy shmancy” TV show. (sad day) Anyway, I’m rambling again, so his Twitter is @rockyR5. You know what to do, finish reading this post, and then follow him! He’s awesome, so yea! (:
“Ratliff”

Birthday: April 14, 1993
Him: Ellington, but known as Ratliff, goes by this name, as it fits with the name. He is probably the most AMAZING drummer that I have ever heard. He has guest starred in several popular shows, such as Victorious on Nick. Anyway, I am so close to 500, my limit on characters, so sadly, I have to stop. His Twitter is @ratliffR5. FOLLOW HIM!

So, sadly, the end is near. Lol, this post’s end is near. I have mentioned to you the members of my favorite band, R5. I mentioned to you, their official Twitter (whatever they are called). I told you to FOLLOW them! Anyway, the band’s official Twitter is @officialR5. You should follow that too. The band’s website is http://www.rfrocks.com. I suggest you go to this site and explore the amazing world of the band, R5.

Chapter Four
“Ari, it’s your turn to present,” Mrs. Kane says.
I quickly stand, and try not to blush as I trip over my desk. I step onto the stage, and grab the Mobi. (The Mobi is a tablet that lets to change slides from anywhere in the room)
“Okay,” I say, “this is my university. It’s formal name is the Missouri University of Science and Technology, but you can call it Missouri S & T. Most people do. Anyway, it;s located in…”
Jeremy laughs and says, “You realize you’re wearing a SEMO shirt, but presenting on a different college?”
The class laughs and Tyronne says, “Yeah! Represent!” as he high-fives me.
I laugh, “Yea, I guess I am. Maybe I’ll get creativity points for that?” I jokingly add, looking at Mrs. Kane, who is laughing.
“Anyway, it’s located in Rolla which is North of here.” I present my college, and ask if there are any questions, and, of course, there are three. I answer their questions, and ask Mrs. Kane if I reached my time or not. She smiles, and says I did, and release a sigh of relief. After me, two more people present, and I head to History.
***************************
“Alright, scholars,” Coach Taub says when he walks in. “Today, we are going to review for your test tomorrow.”
“There’s a test tomorrow?!” Steven asks.
“It’s been on the board for a week, Steven,” Greg says, sarcastically.
“Shut up,” Steven snaps.
“That’s enough,” Coach says.
We play last man standing, but I really do not pay attention. I earn three bonus points, and head to PE. It’s Wednesday, and we get to play WarBall today. I am so excited!
The Apex Project
Apex Project
by A.J. Donadia
Which animal is the most powerful predator of all? Is the lion, grizzly bear, or killer whale at the top of the global food chain? Friends and colleagues, Peter Brennan and Rodger Spits, are wildlife specialists who were studying a pride of lions when they stumbled upon Benedict, a conservationist who was seeking to capture the most dangerous of the apex predators—the wolf, the anaconda, the saltwater crocodile, and the great white shark. Benedict’s company, Geo-Tech Industries, had a goal to transfer these powerful killers into a recreation of their habitats, where they could be protected from the effects of industrialization, such as the poaching of their prey and encroachment into their habitats.
Will Peter and Rodger be able to help Benedict capture and transfer these dangerous animals before they cause too much destruction? And once they are transferred, how will they be sustained?
My Thoughts;
I found this book really interesting. I was incredibly interested, and I found it extremely well written. I was particularly intersted in the part of the book where they talked about the wolf. I have always been fond of wolves, and I was happy to see this book did dedicate a small portion to them. I would definitely recommend this book to any person who likes to read factual books.

Chapter 3: English
Sam, Jerzi, and Ari are walking upstairs, and Ari almost trips. Well, she did trip, but she caught herself.
“You okay?” Jerzi jokingly asks.
“Yea, I’m fine,” Ari replies. They three continue walking until they reach the classroom. Ari and Sam continue walking to their black lockers, while Jerzi goes inside, for she already has her supplies. Ari and Sam grab their things, and head to the classroom.
“Okay, who presents first today?” Mrs. Kane asks.
“Me,” Harper says.
“Okay, get to it!”
“Okay, so this is my school….” Harper says. That’s all Ari hears because she is focused on something else. I don’t’ want to give too much away, but let’s just say, there’s someone in there. Ari jumps as the class begins to clap for Harper.
“Okay, good job, Harper. Tyronne, it is your time to present,” Mrs. Kane says.
“Oh, goody,” he replies. The class laughs as he makes his way to the stage. Oh, did I forget to mention that? Mrs. Kane’s classroom has a stage in the front.
After Tyronne, two more people present, and Ari’s mind is still on other things. That is until she hears this: “Ari, you’re next.”
Soulprint
Hey, readers, so this is another review. I received this book from Waterbrook Multnomah’s Blogging for Books program, and this is my honest review! Enjoy!
OVERVIEW:
There never has been and never will be anyone like you. But that isn’t a testament to you. It’s a testament to the God who created you. The problem? Few people discover the God-given identity that makes them unlike anyone else. Mark Batterson calls this divine distinction our soulprint.
God would like to introduce you to yourself.
In Soulprint, Mark pours the contagious energy he’s known for into helping you experience the joy of discovering who you are…and the freedom of discovering who you’re not. The wonderful fact is that your uniqueness is God’s gift to you, and it’s also your gift to God.
A self-discovery book that puts God at the center rather than self, Soulprint encourages you to recognize and explore the five defining moments in your life that will determine your destiny. Along the way, you’ll find that you’re not just turning the pages of a book. You’re turning the pages of your remarkable, God-shaped, world-changing life.
MY REVIEW:
In Soul Print, Mark explores the life of David – King David – of Old Testament, and how he discovered who he was supposed to be. Mark, the author, uses personal examples to explain and help us understand how to discover ourselves, as David did. I really enjoy this book and recommend it to anyone and everyone! (well, with the exception of those who cannot read.
) Anyway, I really recommend this book, as it was one of Mark’s best!
