I dashed across the battlefield, on the back of my faithful horse.
“Run mate, Run!” I yelled, urging him on. I scanned the bloody battlefield, finding many corpses lying lifeless on the ground. With a gasp, I realized that many of them were our own men. Our men were definitely brave and powerful warriors but no matter how well we fought, our forces were severely outnumbered. Glancing behind me as I swung my sword, I noticed more reinforcements arriving from the back. I cursed the war. It didn’t look good.
“God Bless us,” I whispered to myself under my breath, trying to fill my empty heart with hope. “We’ll win this battle and bring back victory to our lord.”
Our lord was everything to us. He provided us with everything we needed in order for us to fight for him. We obeyed every word he said. Even when the task was impossible, we would stick by his side, obedient, following every single one of his orders. The best way to show loyalty to our lords was by following the rules and taking orders. Therefore, that was what I did.
As I slashed my enemies with my sword, I could hear the words of my lord ringing in my head. ‘Go fight. You shall win this war, you shall bring victory to this land.’ The words repeated themselves, swirling endlessly inside my head and kept my adrenaline flowing, my body fighting.
As I fought on my horse, I saw a familiar face; it was Angus, a skilled but brusque warrior known all over the kingdom. I struggled to get off my horse, judging by the grim look on his face, it was time for a duel. The key to the victory of this battle was to defeat the enemy’s commander. In other words, I had to kill Angus.
I found an empty space to dismount, but before I could get off, my horse came to an abrupt stop and shrieked in furious pain. Worry filling my heart, I glanced back and saw a deep cut in his leg.
“It’s the end mate,” I whispered to him, pain in my voice. “Now we must part. But remember, we shall stand loyal to our lord, and we shall be, until the last second of our lives!”
As I got off the horse I looked back and felt pain stab my heart. I crushed the pain, for a knight shall never be weakened in a battle. I closed the horse’s eyes, stroking its back one last time. But turning back, I stood up with my back up straight, my head held high. I would kill the warrior who had killed my brave horse.
Pulling out my sword, I furiously swung it around, taking out every enemy warrior enemy in my sight. I focused on trying to find Angus, but as I was searching for him, I felt an intense pain creep up on my right leg. I knew instantly that it was Angus. Only one warrior could fight like that. Closing my eyes and writhing in pain, I dropped down to my knees, knowing this battle was already lost. Holding my knee in pain, memories suddenly started flowing out. I remembered the day I was accepted as a squire, remembered the days when I was training for today’s place, and remembering the moment I was dubbed the role of knight. As these memories flooded my brain, I felt a sharp blade stab right at my heart. The blade gleamed with my own blood. As my conscious faltered, I knew that I would never wake up ever again.

Journal 1/12 – Rise and Fall
The rise and fall of empires all depend on the emperors, the ruler. If the emperor knows how to fight wars and knows how to handle with the empire’s economy then the empire will eventually grow and expand. The fall of empires usually are caused by the cruel rulers that only care about themselves, the ones that only want themselves to be happy, to be rich, to have a wealthy life. Bad rulers don’t necessarily have to just be selfish, if the ruler only knows how to run the military then leaves the governing part on its own the empire will also crash, same with the other way around. The inner stability of the empire is also needed, if the senators or generals don’t respect the ruler or plans on killing the ruler the stability will be lost and the empire will be in a mess. Wars will go on and that will really hurt the economy of the empire. Setting alliances with neighboring countries is also very important. If the neighboring country is a potential enemy of yours then you must deal with it as soon as possible, setting alliances and benefitting each other can lead to peace. I think that the falling and rising of empires mainly have to do with the government.
Black, Grey, and Stripes
In this Art project I learned the coil technique. I’ve never ever worked with clay; it’s a first for me. I learned how to make clay sculptures. When you are painting clay it’s different from painting on normal paper. The texture of the clay and the smoother surfaces make it harder to paint but the paint goes on the clay better. I messed up a couple times before I could get the pattern that I wanted on my vessel. I learned a lot of things about working with clay for example, the coil technique and painting on clay.
The sculpture changed a lot from my original plan. I didn’t have a color for my vessel. I just decided to see how the vessel would turn out then decide the color. There was never really a color plan even after I finished sculpting my vessel. I just tried out different colors and it turned out like this. Also the shape of the vessel changed as I started to figure out that my plan was a little bit too hard for me. The cup part was the hardest, I would always add too much clay and the whole thing would collapse so I decided to somehow change a long and skinny champagne glass into a wider and shorter wine glass.
I am very proud of my sculpture. I didn’t think it would turn out to be so good, well at least to me. This word really covers up a lot of things and can have a lot of meaning but I think my sculpture is cool and yes, that’s about it.
Science Essential Question 1
How would you feel if your home were destroyed by an earthquake or volcano?
I would feel empty and sad. I wouldn’t feel mad because its a natural thing, i chose to live in a seismic area so be it, I would’ve expected it. I would do something about it, it is a disaster to everybody in that area so I should help them out and pull them back up if they are in trouble and bring them back to the right track again.
Yeah, You and Your Smile
I walk away taking the last glance of your last smile of the night
The night meant to have bright stars
The night that meant I could have you
I play my guitar in the car
Playing the song I wrote for you thats now mended into our song
As the car moves it seems like its moving backwards going through what we’ve been through and where we’ve been as I leave the gate
Going through the trails I go back to the starting point
The lights blinding my eyewhere I only want you to be happy
I don’t know how many times I have repeated this but please remeber that whatever choice you make I’ll always be there
And yes, I find it so beautiful
Yeah, You and Your Smile

Long long ago, there was a boy named Emoc. His mom died when she gave birth to him, his father died at war. He was an orphan at the age of 5. He lived with nobody but wild cats and rubbish. He was enough of life but wanted to do something about it. Long ago there was also a kingdom called Wesmoc. The country was peaceful but was always in war defending themselves from other countries. Emoc went through 15 years of pain and war. Finally one day at a consul meeting he crashed into the throne and gave advices and suggested himself as an advisor and a general. The consuls were amazed by his smartness and experience at war. They gave him the position of a general and advisor. He led thousands of soldiers at war and won every single battle that he was in charge of but there was a problem with this mighty general, every night he would think back and remember the pain that he’s been through. The pain would strike him so bad that he would want to hurt himself. Every night he kept a knife with him. When the soldiers asked him why there were scars on his arm he would look away with pain. Soon the general of Wesmoc, Emoc starting spreading and everybody started discussing about him. Every general would fear his scars on his arm, every soldier would fear his long hair and painful look. People gave him the name…Pain. The day he died his name and fantasies were recorded in the book of history. His actions and behaviors have been passed and still known today.
Obsessed
Why am I so obsessed?
You tell me that you don’t need my voice till 12
You turn off your phone hinting that you don’t need me anymore
Everything’s different now
You don’t edge close anymore like you use to
You don’t give me the usual stare anymore
I see it in your eyes
I see it through you into your heart
The clock ticks infront me
I pick up the phone and call every 3 minutes
Just to see whether you’ve turned your phone back on
Why am I so obsessed?
Nothing’s ever ended before 12
You would always tell me you’re never tired
We use to talk on and on
I would always mark the time and tell you to stop
I can’t have you tell me whether its true or not because I can’t get to you
I wish you could just tell me everything here is not real
I want to prove myself wrong for once so help me
The creak of the bed would be the only thing to break the dead silence of tonight
I peaked out my window
The moons not shining bright
The fogs up blocking every single contact with you
There is no moon tonight
What can connect us tonight?
I am a morning person
But I prefer the night
I like the way how the feelings for you pour out of my heart non-stop
I can be confused
I can be wrong
If you are unhappy here
Go
If you don’t want to stay here don’t tell me
Yes
Your smile is worth seeing more than a solar eclipse
Your laugh overpowers thousands of instruments
You don’t just represent yourself but the light in my life
That’s why
No matter what you decision is
I’ll still be here
That’s why
I’m here
That’s why
I’m obsessed
Lost
Light,
Guide me to where she is
Shine the path
Shine the way
I am lost in the darkness
I am lost in confusion
I start somewhere
But I forget where
I know I have a goal
But I don’t know how to get there
Light,
Guide me through the dark
Guide me through the maze
Don’t let the darkness swallow me
I see the illusion of her scattered along the gray walls
So close but yet so far
Light,
I can see you
But I don’t know how long till I can get to you
I stumble upon rocks
I slip on puddles
The distant sound of dripping water
The distant feel of your hand in mine
Light,
I am crawling on my knees
Reaching for you
I know that your there
Faith is in me
Someone will find the light
Someone will find the ending
Someone will find me
