Survival By, Joseph Capoocia Day 1: I'll tell you how the tragedy happened. It all started on a Lovely day. We all were going to move to Japan on the island of Okinawa. I don't know why we took a 15 day cruise to an island over 1,000 miles away. We were told to pack everything our hats, pets, sun block, money, phones, and even leaf blowers. Day 2: For some reason we hit an under-sea volcano at full speed. and were told to stay close and raid the buffet. Next with our mouths full and our bags packed we grabbed our pets and jumped on a lifeboat. We were first to leave and we got further than anybody else. That night we heard a creaking noise under water. It turns out to be a Sperm Whale then it jumped up and ate everybody else. Day 3: Then drifting with a year's supply of food, we were told to stay positive and play DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS WHOOOOOOOOOO! I of course was a Cleric and my siblings chose pre-made player cards. Who in their right minds chose a pre-made before trying to make their own. …show more content…
We gave the animals water to drink while we had soda. All of the ice cream melted which I held a funeral for. The worst part was that shovel nose sharks were attacking our marlin cake. Day 12: The desserts were gone! They were all eaten one by one! Then our weeks supply of nothing vanished. We ate the pumpkins then the butternut squash and gourds. My younger brother still didn't eat the zucchini. Day 20: We ran out of food, so we started fishing and we caught a mahi mahi also known as a dolphin. My father was the strongest of us all so he was the person who was fishing. Then we cut it open and there were flying fish inside its stomach. Then we feasted on fish and fresh
Have you ever been driven out of your own home? Have you ever felt like a total outsider? My book The Survivors by Will Weaver is a young adult fiction, written in third-person, about a family who was driven from their home outside Minneapolis, the Newells and is now living in a cabin in the north woods. The main characters, Sarah and Miles, are forced to live like the locals and are not supposed to come off as homeless “Travelers.” They are faced with many challenges that hold them back and also force them to do stuff they don’t want to do.
As soon as we were done we went to play in the freezing water, climb on some old trees that fell, and fixed up our ples to fish. We all kept getting stabbed by the sharp hooks and lures everywhere.
The title of my article; To Survive in Tough Times, Restaurants Turn to Data-Mining and it is by Karen Stabiner. The author’s purpose for writing this article, is to show how the restaurant industry is turning to data-mining technology to improve the growth of their business. In my opinion, the article relates to a variety of the topics that are in Chapter 6. Nevertheless, the restaurant realizes that they need to head in another direction to improve the quality of their business. For instance, in section 6-1 Storing Information Using a Relational Database Management System, they would have known would was regulars and who was first-timers from a click of a button. With this system and an up-to-date POS system they can easily know their patrons likes and dislikes, that also goes for the newcomers. The primary topic is about how can the use of data-mining into this business or any business for that matter would open doors to a wide array of benefits and rewards.
Most of the time we went fishing. We have a big river there and we like to fish for this ugly fish that looked like a cat fish with legs, we called it a water dog.
The 4th day we were there a tropical storm happened, no one was allowed in the ocean pasted their ankles, so instead of swimming we went crab hunting, but because they would pinch our fingers we decided to hunt for seashells instead.
The theme of the book “My Side of the Mountain” written by Jean Craighead George is about survival.
Many years ago in World War II children all across the country were sent to safer places. I was sent along with most of the other boys from my school and in particular my choir. Then as the war was ending and it was supposed to be safe we were sent home on a plane. Unfortunately we never made it home that terrifying day. We were hit by what I now know was a bomb and the plane went down.
I saw a bird on the pinta so switched boats and I killed it with a rock. We were all grumpy that we had not found land yet. The captain wanted to change course and I thought it was a good idea but I just agreed with the other sailors. We heard the shot of the cannibal that means there is land. We saw some naked people which the captain
Suddenly, the sea burst upwards dowsing everyone on the ship, making me lose my grasp on my sword but luckly it stayed in its sccabbard, as our whale went skyward, being carried by a huge black and purple mass.
It’s a clear, cool, spring Friday afternoon. All were going about their quotidian business, in offices, on trains, in rice fields, in stores, in schools, in warehouses, in shrines then, the ground began to shake. Located at Pacific fault lines, Japanese are accustomed to these shudder and shakes but something was different on March 11th. Moments later a low rumble from the east came, the Pacific Ocean. People began to see a ragged white line in the horizon, within minutes a monstrous wall of waves came sweeping in, clawing across the land destroying everything in its path. If that wasn’t enough, a nuclear accident arose after a power plant was struck. Nightmares within two minutes turned into reality. Only debris remained where homes,
We started the trip off with high spirits, we knew what our purpose was when we arrive and we were excited. From Georgia to Pennsylvania, what we thought would be an 12 hour trip turned into 26. We proceeded to get lost three times, lost our hotel rooms and became homeless, and almost perished on I-40 E. When we finally arrived we discovered that Philadelphia was amongst a heat wave bringing in record highs of 105°F. We were also
Megan and I would go absolutely ballistic by bouncing off the walls from all our sugar intake. My sister would shush us. My younger brother would complain. All the adults would be too busy to notice. We didn’t give any of them a second glance. As soon as we settled down, we’d go back to the world in which we’re main characters in our favorite show, Winx Club. As soon as the sun was replaced by the darkness of the night, we would still be awake. My parents would reply to our whispers of nothingness at three in the morning with soft snores, and we would giggle at every cat meow, creak, and rustle of
When I woke up, we walked to the beach, where we went snorkeling. I found a lot of cool fish. Along with that, I saw a sea turtle! I remember my dad was trying to throw me on it. My brother and I followed it for a
In 1912 my family decided to leave Sweden for the United States. My uncles had gone to start a dairy farm in Minnesota and had sent letters home describing their successes. My family boarded a large ship in England. We were lucky that my uncles had sent enough money for our tickets and a small cabin. Most of the passengers were in steerage which is a large open space under the deck. Passengers and sailors at their work, stood at the rail when we left port. There were boys by age but we did not speak the same language so I mostly stayed close to my father. The trip was not good because of the weather and the amount of sick people on board. My mother made us stay in the cabin for fear of us getting sick. Several passengers died during the crossing
“Wow” I said, amazed with how clear the water is. It was like swimming on glass or even looking through glass. Then we go to the spot I thought is was going to be freezing in the water because back at the beach is was like swimming with ice on you. But as we were getting ready to go in the water with tons of people from the resort had to put on the gear first. First we put on the life jacket, then we put on the goggle and snorkels. I also remember seeing a shark cause the guy yelled to the guy on the other boat because we have a party boat next to us. Then when we went out there and when I got in the water with my luck a shark swam right by us for myI was lucky then he did not come with me cause I would I poop my pants. I think that was the last time I went in the
