The beast from the sky

I think that the beast is a hawk. Or some kind of really big bird. In the story the twins talk about teeth and everything, but I think that they were just scared and over
exaggerating.

I think that the kids will end up making peace with each other and end up being rescued. I think when the reality of it all really sets in they will realize that they cannot survive if they are fighting.

Gun Control

I don't think any laws should be made against guns. I completely agree with the saying "guns don't kill people kill people". I don't think laws should be changed against guns but against how people get guns. In my opinion everyone should have a certain level of training and licenses before being able to own a gun. Maybe this would let more people know the power a gun can have and the damage it can cause. Maybe if people experience
this first hand they will be less likely to pull the trigger. And more likely to keep there guns away and locked up. If people required certain licenses this would prevent just anybody walking into the gun store. I think it is a right for Americans to carry guns. For both sport and protection. But not just any body should be able to own a gun.

Christopher Gardner

I am really passionate about becoming a carpenter. Since I was like fourteen I have done carpentry work with my uncle. Since then I have wanted to pursue a career in carpentry. And I plan on doing so. To achieve my dream I will need to graduate high school and some levels of college. At this point I am very behind credit wise in high school. To graduate on time I am going into a five month boot camp program that will put me ahead of the rest of my class. I know the road to my career is going to be tough , but that is why I am planning ahead and getting prepared now for what might come in the future. The night was really fun. I really enjoyed everything Chris said. It really amazed me how after all he has been through he is so happy and funny.

Alone

I think it is good to be alone some times. Like me, I am a very social person but occasionally I need to be alone to think and gather my thoughts. Everyone has to have some time to get things together in their head. It can be a relief to be alone and away from all the drama in life. Like a cool down time. Or a time to clear your head so you don't get stressed out. I love to be with people but sometimes it feels really good to be alone and think.
