Blog Assignment #52 Part 1
The former Alaskan governor, Sarah Palin,visited Haiti on December 12. She was accomponied by her daughter and her husband. The trip was hosted by Franklin Grahm. She also visited some cholorea treatment centers. Palin says that the conditions in Haiti were much harsher than she expected.
Many people are expressing their oppinion that Sarah Palin on stayed in Haiti for less than 48 hours. They think that she should have spent more time there. I think that Sarah Palin did a good thing. She reached out and helped the people of Haiti when they are in a time of need. It should not matter how long she stayed there.
In conclusion, Sarah Palin opened her heart and showed compassion to the people of Haiti. We should be willing to help others. We should be willing to sacrifice what we are doing to lend a helping hand.

The Hunger Games:
I enjoyed reading this book. I am not a huge science fiction reader,but this book and series was awesome. There are three books in The Hunger Games series. The Hunger Games is the first book, Catching Fire is the second book, and Mocking Jay is the third book. The series was written by Suzanne Collins.
The Hunger Games introduces a sixteen year old girl named Katniss Everdeen. She lives in the country of Panem, where North America once stood. In Panem there are twelve districts,and the capitol which is like the central city.Each year there is an event where the capitol chooses one boy and one girl from each district to fight in what the capitol calls the hunger games.The hunger games are to show the people that not even the children are above the capitols power. All twenty four kids fight to the death in an arena. The last one standing wins the hunger games.
This was a great book. I definitely recommend it to others. The Hunger Games will leave you wanting more. All the books in the series are great. Suzanne Collins is a great author.

Christmas Poem
That opens up our eyes
To the unexpected gifts in life—
Each day a sweet surprise.
For the people whom we know;
Like festive Christmas candles,
Each one has a special glow.
A dash of Christmas food,
(Amazing how a piece of pie
Improves our attitude!)
Wrap it up in love and peace,
Decorate with optimism, and
Our joy will never cease.
We know we will remember
To be in the Christmas spirit,
Even when it's not December.
