Thoughts on The Eye of Minds

What I think about the Eye of Minds is. It's really good but Kaine the hacker is really that good at hacking? The VirtNet should be able to stop him or use their millions of dollars to find him. Unless he is one the richness kids in the world and no on can find him. My second thought is when they go to Devils of Destruction and their guns don't work. Why would they get guns, grenades and they won't work? Do they have to make their weapons? There surrounded by snow, caves, blood and people. They should be able to get different kinds of weapons once they kill more people. Last thought, if Kaine  realizes that he will get found soon by those three kids, then he should send bodyguards when they get close to find him.

My Narrative 
It's all started in 2003 when my parents told me and sister "kids, we are saving up for a road trip. We need both of you to find as much money you can find and put it in the crayon bank for one year". So me and my sister started gathering dimes, quarters and nickels and putting it into the crayon bank. One year passed. I'm 3 years old, my sister is 2 years old and my newborn brother Daniel just came out a couple weeks ago. Now we got to pack up everything. We got to the airport at around 8:30. We had to wait 2 hours before the plane was ready to go. We all took naps to by the time. When the announcer said something like plane to Florida will be in the air in 15min. So we started to get up and go to the plane. We finally arrived at the plane, we took our seats. My dad sat with Daniel, my mom sat with my sister and I sat by myself. But I put my stuff on the other seat so no one can seat next to me. The captain came out and said "Hope you brought some blankets and a pillow because this ride is going to be 12 hours long. I didn't know what to do for 12 hours. I had an IPad which can last like 8 hours when on full battery. After using my IPad for 8 hours I put it in my suitcase and fell to sleep.

 When I woke up it was day time and I can feel the heat from outside because some people open their windows. When we arrived we went to the hotel and dropped out our stuff. I hoped that the hotel was nice looking and not smelly and stuff everywhere. After 30min we got to the hotel. The outside looks nice and has lots of detail put into it. But the inside looked a lot better. It smelled nice, everything was clean and lots of detail was put into the decorations. While my parents was signing in I was just looking at all the decorations. After like 5min I got bored. I wondered off and I found the pool. The pool was huge and it had a hot tub! I couldn't wait til the end of the day til I get to go in. After signing in we were going to our room. I couldn't wait to see it. When we got in I was disappointed. There was only one bed! It could only fit 2 people. Where would the other 3 people sleep? That's the only bad thing about the room. After we got settled into the room we got changed and showered and ready for day one of the trip.  Our parents got everything planned now we just got to go to the attractions. First attraction we're going to is the Buzz 

LightYear Space Attack. That attraction is basically using a fake gun attached to the cart that your cart and you need to shoot the aliens that appear in the walls. When the aliens are shot they will blink red to show that they are killed. I went with my dad and brother. My mom went with my sister. The ride is total of 5min long. After that ride we decided to go to another park because we were right next to park. We were going to Animal Kingdom. The first thing we did was go to eat. The airplane food wasn't so good and the snacks we packed for the car trip wasn't that filling. We went to eat at some Italian/seafood restaurant. After we were done eating we were lucky to catch the parade. Our parents didn't know that there was a parade so we watched it for a while. After tired of walking we went back to the hotel and rested for the night. 

Day 2. It's day 2 of the trip and we waked early to go eat at Chef Mickey. We had to walk for about 30min to get to the train. When we got to the train the announcer said "Arriving at destination in 3 min. After getting Buckled up I saw the outside of Florida. The was so much stuff to do and might not get to it. In a blink of an eye the train went super fast and I can see everyone and everything in super speed. We stopped and got off the train to go eat. There was the restaurant. Our parents gave the man our reservation and we got it in. There was a sign that said "Buffet eat as much as you can!" We were trying to find a table but couldn't find one. After a min of searching we finally found one. We grab plates, forks and spoons and went to the food. I got bacon pizza which looked good. I also grabbed some scrambled eggs with powered sugar on it, which looked so good. For my drink I got chocolate milk. I was surprised that there wasn't any special drinks like the food ones. After done eating we went to go watch a play. When we we're done eating we went to go see a play. We were walking to the the building and my mom turned around to Evelyn "Sweety you read." Mom turned to dad "We lost Eyelyn!" Dad cried "How did we lose her?" We all went to look and no sign of her. After minutes of searching we found her by Mickey Mouse who was taking pictures. My mom grabbed her and we went to the movies. The play was about all the Disney characters talking and flying around with a wire attached to their back. After the play we decided to go eat at a seafood restaurant. I couldn't remember the name but it was a huge cruise ship with a lobster on the side of it. We of course the had reservations and we served in 2 min. My mom got pasta with chicken and spicy sauce. My sister got chicken tenders. My little brother didn't eat but my mom brought  baby food for him. My dad got a lobster tail. And I got tilapia with dirty rice. After we were done eating we went back to the hotel. 

We all just watched tv and ate some snacks. Day 3. Our parents told us about what we are doing today. Our parents woke us up. "Kids, today will be our last day for our trip. For breakfast we will be eating at Chef Mickey'. For lunch we are still deciding. Afternoon will the fun happens. We will ride a rollercoaster that goes backwards. The other ride we will go on is Tower of Terror. That one is to end the day. We are going to the tower of terror first. It's basically a ride that brings you down quick and up quick. It felt like I was jumping out of a airplane high above the sky. I also felt like jumping down from a airplane but reversed it was terrifying. Everyone went on except my sister. She was so scared so my mom didn't go on so she can stay with her. The ride wasn't very scary but it made our stomach's feel weird. After the tower of terror we went on Mt. Everest. The line was huge but we must go on before we go. No one wanted to go on except me and my mom. I was scared and my mom. Finally after waiting we got on. At first it wasn't scary but when it dropped down that scared me and my mom. There was lots of twist and turns. After like twenty seconds of the ride we came to an end. There was no tracks so we went backwards!! After that it was a repeat. We went to the photo booth to get our picture. They got my mom closing her eyes it was so funny I couldn't wait to show dad, Eyelyn and Daniel. Well that was end of the trip. We did everything we could. We all got nothing to do. We were just walking around the park. So my mom turned around and told me "Hey Nathan how was your day"? I replied with "I had a great time and I can't wait to come back. After that everyone told that they liked and disliked. I couldn't remember all of it but I know we got to know each other a lot better. I can't wait to come back in like 3 years. I will be saving up.

Police in Heritage Middle School By Nathan Garza


Police in HMS By Nathan
  In Heritage Middle School police officers come sometimes for a visit. Police officers come in classrooms, the gymnasium and also goes to the lunch room and sometimes makes announcements. Police officers make announcements about joining police practice. It's basically a program where kids practice being police officers, sorta. They won't have a firearm and a taser. It's funny how the police officers are so nice with kids but with criminals there so mean. 

Last time a police officer came to HMS was about a week ago. And when they made that announcement was in the middle of last year. They might make it again but there not so sure. Not a lot of kids joined. Also police officers might in the building because of fights. 

Many fights were occurring last year in the bathroom and police officers came to visit. This year not a lot of fights occurs, that's why only like 2 police officers come every month or so. The first to come to hms was officer was officer Stilo. Well she was nice but also very very loud when people don't listen to her. The next officer to come to hms was  officer Daley. He was funny and very friendly. He's not loud all the time but he will get mad when people don't follow his directions. Overall most people like Officer Daley. 

Last year police officers came into the health room and taught us about being friendly citizens. The officer basically told us to say hi or good morning to people. It brightens up their day by a lot. Also he said if you see a elderly woman with lots of stuff that she can't carry. Brighten up her day and help her with her Groceries. This year they might come in again and teach 8th grade about CPR. The police men last year brought in fake babies to practice on. The last time we might see them is if there's shooting in building.
