    Abominable Snowman

    If I was a character in the Abominable Snowman I would be Carlos. Carlos in this story starts off as a explorer who is trying to find the Yeti known as the Abominable Snowman but his helicopter crashes. If I was Carlos knowing I'm on the same mountain as a Abominable Snowman I would try to look at tracks and keep my distance from him. I then would get some bark of tree would and craft a knife to kill animals to cook and eat by making a fire by scraping rocks together and making a spark. I would try to to see if I could use the helicopter that crashed for shelter. I would try and see what I can find in the helicopter and use it for survival. When I go to sleep I will always pray to God to ask him for help to survive and not be dead by the time the people who are looking for me find me. If I could I would climb a tree and find a high point and see if I could see some smoke or a house so I know there is a town up ahead. And last I would write a letter telling my family the everything will be alright If I don't make it out of these mountains with the abominable snowman. Well I hope I impressed you with my story on my survival thoughts and who I want to be In the book.

    Blog #2 The Kind of Friends We Used to Be.


    1.coco: I feel like coco would be a perfect movie for kate to see because she loves music and is not afraid to show her love of it with others. Her friend Marilyn and her family does not think playing guitar is very amusing just like Miguel did in coco. I feel like if Kate saw this movie she would definitely relate to it. Coco is also about following your dreams even if people say you can't.
    2.Hannah Montana: i feel like Marilyn would love the the show Hannah Montana. Marilyn would like this show because she loves singing, fashion, friendship and all things girly. Hannah Montana loves to be silly funny and a little serious sometimes and that's how Marilyn lives her life. I strongly believe that if Hannah Montana was real that Marilyn would be best friends with her.
    Wonder: wonder is a movie i think they would both like to watch together. This movie is about a little boy named Auggie who has Treacher Collins syndrome and always says how he is different from other kids and has very few friends. Both Marilyn and Kate would love this movie because it is meaningful and they can relate to it. They can both relate to it because they both have trouble making friends, but have one friend that they know will always be there for the just like jack-will was always there for Auggie.
