Beep! Beep! Beep! It was the sound Lauren Loldon dreaded every morning… the alarm clock.  She smacked the snooze button for the third time.  It was now 11:25 and she had to leave at 12:00 to get to the airport Her 5’8 athletic body jumped out of bed and started getting dressed.  Her outfit of the day was shorts and a sweater it was her usual.  It was very warm in Sydney Australia so her skin was pretty tanned.  She started putting her long blond hair into a French braid and then did her makeup.  She finished her makeup and brushed her teeth.  She fed her Kangaroo, Kanga, and ate her own breakfast, a slice of cold pizza.  She grabbed all of her bags and kanga and headed out of her small house.  She walks to her small blue ford focus and heads to her boyfriend’s house.  His name was Logan and she met him doing the same doctors apprenticeship.  They had also gone to the same university but never had met.   He has brown haired and is 23, a year older than Lauren.  He packed his bags in the car and they headed out to the local sushi place for lunch.  After finishing they left for the airport.  They were heading to Manitoba as Lauren and her best friend Emma were in beach volleyball provincials and also to visit Lauren’s family. Her whole family lived in Winnipeg, Manitoba, she was very happy about this trip as she got to do two of her favorite things, play volleyball and be with family and friends.  They got to the airport and boarded the plane.  It would be a long flight and they were well off so they decided to fly in first class.  After 21 one long hours of luxurious flying they landed in Manitoba.  It was summer time there so it as pretty warm.  Emma picked them up and they headed to the courts as their first game was in 2 hours.

My room is medium sized and has a specific color scheme all of my furniture is bright white and my walls are painted aqua.  All of my decorations are either green and blues or white and silver all making my room seem calm and modern.  You open the door and a rush of wonderful smells of the tropics surrounds you.  And as you walk into my room you can feel the carpet, the plush fabric in between your toes. Straight in front of you is my medium sized white desk.  It has many drawers and holds all my books and school stuff, on top of it I have my mac book and a paper organiser.  The wall above it has frames filled with pictures of my friends and family, these pictures help to give me inspiration and make me smile whenever I see them.  Diagonally from the desk you will see my bed, it is a double bed and has a white leather head board and frame.  I have a green and blue striped bed spread and many soft jumbo pillows on it.  To the right of my bed I have a little table that has my ihome and my lamp on it, it is square and has pretty short legs.  Across from my bed is my white dresser.  It has three drawers and above it are my TV and Wii.  The dresser however does not hold my clothes, my closet does which is near my desk.  It is pretty big and has all my clothing in it, neatly organised and color coated.  On the ceiling in the center of the room I have a lamp from Mr. Lamp shop and is a ball with warped blue and green panels.  Last but not least I have is a shelf that boarders the hole room.  On this shelf I put pictures, awards and keepsakes. Overall my room is very tidy and is my place to sleep and do homework.  Although you can hear the dog barking and my brother’s music playing it is a great place to rest after a long day. I just recently re-did my room and love the way it has turned out.  I love my room, the look and the feel of it, it almost reminds me of a bedroom out of a magazine and is always very calming to be in.

Blog entry #7


For the charater of Helena I have choose Kate Winslet.  She is a great actress and has been in over 30 movies.  Some of the movies she has been in are The Titanic, The Reader, Contagion, and The Holiday.  She can play many difffernt roles and it shows throughout all her different movies.  Her  Titanic character would be the closest to Helenas.  This is because the are both in the olden days and both were in love with someone they couldn’t have.  In the play Helena is in love with Demetrius and in the movie Rose  is in love with Jack.  This is a similarity because in both the play and the movie they can not be with there true love.  In the play this is because Demetrius does not love her back and is arranged to marry Hermia and in the movie she is frobiden to love a poor man and she is already engaged. “And even for that do I love you more.” (II,I,202) this quote shows that she is in love with someone that she can not be with and she is sayimg that not having him only makes her want him more.  This is exactly like Kate Winslet character’s  Rose.


For the character Titania I choose Jenifer Lawrence.  She is a great actress and has been in movies such as The Hunger Games, Silver Linings Playbook and X-men.   I choose her because she is beautiful and always plays a strong femal.  This relates to Titania because she is a leader and is very powerful.Her character in The Hunger Games relates the best with Titania.  In The Hunger Games she was a very strong girl, she loved nature and she took care of people(her family).   This is exactly like Titania, she is the queen of the forest and has power over everyone, she is one with nature as she is a fairy and she takes care of all the creatures in the forest.  “Not for thy fairy kingdom!”  (II,I,144) this quote shows that she will do anything to protect her kingdom and is strong enough to stand up for them all.  This is exactly like Jennifer’s character Katniss as she stands up for her district and family.

 
For the character Puck I choose the actor Kevin James.  He is a great actor and has been in many movies such as Grown Ups, Paul Blart Mall Cop, and Here Comes the Boom.  I choose Kevin James fro the character of Puck because he always plays a funny and goofy role.  He usually always messes up and is a joker just like Puck.   For example in Paul Blart Mall Cop he plays a mall cop that is sort of a screw up and  is very quirky.   This relates to Puck because he messed up when putting the potions on the lovers eyes and made the hole situation even worse.  ''Weeds of Athens he doth wear.'' (II,ii,77)  This quote shows that he does not process things very well and he jumps to conclusions.  This relates to most of Kevin James characters and that's why I think he would be a great Puck.
