What's in the Name?

It comes from the Norman French form of Wido. It was introduced in England and was common until the time of Guy Fawkes(1570-1606) a revolutionary who tried to blow up the British Parliment. My great grandfathers name was Guy so my parents decided to honor him. If I were a girl my name would have been Beth Ann. I like my name it's unique and people always remember it. If I could pick my own name it would JJ. A name that fits me would be Gunter because it's a name that is very popular in Germany and that where my family is from.

If I were a....

If I were a superhero I would definately be Flash. Mainly because he is super fast and I am super, super slow. If I were a food I would be a steak because they taste so good and is good for you. If I were a color I would be blue because it is my favorite color. If I were a type of music I would be country. Country has strong values and talks about life lessons. If I were a car I would be a Range Rover because they are rugged and can get through anything. They also look really cool and are owned by rich people.

Music Defines You

I listen to a lot of different types of music. I listen to a lot of rap and country probably the most. I like the ideas that country singers sing about. I think the music that I listen to shows that I have an open personality. I think the music today defines my generation by showing that it is ok to be your own person and to think different than what you are told to think. I think that future generations will look back on the music that is popular today and think wow is that a lot different that what we hear today.

nature vs. nurture

I definately think it is nature over nurture by large margin. Your genes and traits you get from your parents not from the people around you so much. Most kids act at least like one of their parents. In some situations the child has the personality of both parents. Like me I act like both of my parents at certain times. When I am in a good mood I act a lot like my father. But when I am in a bad mood I act very much like my mother. Like when my mom is mad she looks like she is going to tear of somebody's head off. The same is with me, when I am mad you better not be messing with me or you are cruising for a bruising. My little brother is the same way as me, buit he acts like are mom a little bit more than I do.

A Star is Born

I would definitely star in some sort of an action Movie. Maybe with Harrison Ford as my Side Kick. It would be about a guy who is a scientist but can also kick some major butt. I would shoot it in the moutains somewhere possible Colorado. The snow would be perfect. I would need to take some snowboarding lessens because I stink at it. I would also need to take a Karate course so I could show up Harrison Ford with my killer moves. Harrison Ford would end up getting killed by my enemy Darth Crazy Person. I would get all mad and then kill his hinch men. With the theme song of the Indiana Jones Movie playing. Then I would get into the room where Darth Crazy Person is and he would shoot at me. Then I would sneak up behind him and snap his neck. I plan on this movie making like 5 billion dolars.

Creative Costumes

When I was five I dressed up as Woody from Toy Story. I had this really cool foam hat that looked real. It was totally awesome. I had this like flannel shirt that looked like I was actually a doll. Another really good costume was when I dressed up as a crazy hockey player. I had all of this awesome paint all over my I looked cool. I wore my inline hockey jersey. I was like seven I went to a haunted house in Armington. That was easily the best costume in the world. It will definitely be something that I will remember for the rest of my life.

Blog Entry #2 Time Traveler

If I could travel back in time I would travel back to the times of the Indians. I have always been fascinated by them and would like to meet a couple in person. I would go back meet Crazy Horse, Geronimo, and some Indians who lived in Illinois.
If I were to travel back in time and meet Crazy Horse I would ask him about how he grew up. I would ask him if he would like to just give up his fight because in the end he and his people are going to be sent to the reservations anyway. He would probably say no and scalp me.
The second person that I would go meet would be Geronimo. I would ask him how it felt running away from the whole United States Army. I would give him some food for him and his bandits. I would also tell him good luck and keep up the winning fight.
The last people I would want to meet would be Indians from Illinois. I would ask them if they would mind if a white kid portrayed a chief if they would be offended. I would tell them how much respect is paid to this mascot. I hope that they would appreciate it and be honored by the symbol. Then I would like to go see the places that are around now and see what they looked like back then. I would love to see what the town of Minier looked like before the white settlers came.

Entry #1: Welcome to my Blog

Welcome to my Blog! Hi my name is Guy Hainline I’m a Freshman at Olympia High School. I am in Writing English 1 and I’m going to be keeping a blog throughout 2nd semester.
I am 5”1 and have a normal hair style, nothing flashy. I have brown eyes and dark blonde hair. My favorite t-shirt is anything that says Olympia Baseball on it because I play baseball and am very proud of it. I wear anything that feels comfortable and makes me look good. I wear jeans in the winter and shorts in the summer.
I really a very easygoing person and like to just relax. But when someone gets me angry I can get intolerable and no one wants to be near me. I think I’m very likable but sometimes I can come across really cocky.
I love sports, my favorite baseball is the St.Louis Cardinals and my favorite football team is the Chicago Bears. I love to watch T.V my favorite shows are the Simpsons, Family Guy, and anything on ESPN. Like anyone I love food my favorites are ribs, pork chops, steaks, and anything with potatoes in it. A couple of my dislikes are vegetable casserole, CSI Miami, and the Chicago Cubs.
I have many goals for feature here the most important to me. One goal for the future is to win a baseball state championship. Another is to get accepted to a 4- year college hopefully Illinois. I also want to get straight A’s from here on out.
School for me comes pretty easy so I don’t mind it but, sometimes it can be a pain. My favorite class is Social Studies I like to learn about things that got us to where we are now. This semester I have Physical science, Driver Ed, Algebra 2, and English 1. Its pretty cool to be a Freshman because you have a lot of time before you have to grow up and get a job. I hope I can get good enough grade to go to Illinois.
