 * Original Paragraph by John Steinbeck**

__Over the high coast__ mountains and __over the valleys__ the gray clouds marched __in from the ocean__. The wind blew fiercely and silently, high __in the air__, and it swished __in the brush__, and it roared __in the forests__. The clouds came __in brokenly__, __in puffs__, __in folds__, __in gray crags__; and they piled i__n together__ and settled low __over the wes__t. And then the wind stopped and left the clouds deep and solid. The rain began with gusty showers, pauses and downpours; and then gradually it settled __to a single__ tempo, small drops and a steady beat, rain that was gray to see __through, rain__ that cut midday light to evening. And at first the dry earth sucked the __moisture down__ and blackened. For two days the earth drank the rain, __until the earth__ was full. Then puddles formed, and __in the low__ places little lakes formed __in the fields__. The muddy lakes rose higher, and the steady rain whipped the shining water. __At last__ the mountains were full, and the hillsides spilled __into the streams__, built them to freshets, and sent them roaring down the canyons i__nto the valleys__. The rain beat __on steadily__. And the streams and the little rivers edged up __to the bank__ sides and worked __at willows__ and tree roots, bent the willows deep __in the current__, cut out the roots of cotton-woods and brought __down the trees__. The muddy water whirled __along the bank__ sides and crept __up the banks until at last__ it __spilled ove__r, __into the fields__, __into the orchards__, __into the cotton patche__s where the black stems stood. Level fields became lakes, broad and gray, and the rain whipped __up the surfaces__. Then the water poured __over the highways__, and cars moved slowly, cutting the water ahead, and leaving a boiling muddy __wake behind__. The earth whispered __under the bea__t of the rain, and the streams thundered __under the churning__ freshets.

Games by David Huh 6E
 * Class work october 8 th

Games are fun because you can learn something from the game or if you don,t have friends you can play games with your family. My favorite games are Pokemon (DS or Gameboy), Bloons(PC) , Halo(PC), and Starcraft(PC). Games could be sports. Every games have a rules like no cheating, and etc.

Pokemon is mostly about catching a pokemon and record it in pokedex. Pokedex is a Pokemon dictionary. You go out in a adventure and take your partner with you. You have to fill up the pokedex and beat the league. To win the league you have to win all the badges.

Bloons is a monkey that pops balloon. This game is strategy you have limited ammo. If you can’t pop the balloon you fail. This game you have to think well.

Halo is shooting game. It contains violence too. You shoot at people to earn points and thats for multiplayer. In campaign you fight with monsters and there is some tough ones too.

My last favorite game is Starcraft. Starcraft is a strategy game. You make tanks, marine, firebats, battleship, goliath and etc. There is 3 teams, protoss, terron, and zerg. Every characters are different. They will keep fighting until you loose or win
