Happy Halloween! Make smart choices this weekend, please!

The candy bar that I selected was M & M’S. I think that this description was very accurate. I crave to laugh. If I’m not laughing my friends think I’m sad. So basically I’m always laughing! People that I just met say that they adore being next to me because they never stop giggling and even snorting! I am a warm-hearted person, my clumsy friends say I’m way to kind, but if I don’t help people around me who will? I have that desire that need to help the people around me. I am very sensitive. My candy did describe me in a lot of ways.
My favorite person in the novel Is Edward. (Just in the novel in the movie ewe never)
If Edward went trick or treating I’m sure that he would pick, Butter Fingers. Why?
Because even though he is not smooth on the outside I think on the inside he is. Because I mean if your beloved, if your darling, if that special person jumped out of a cliff (by the way that was for him) and you went and killed yourself.. I believe that is an amazing example of how soft how smooth Edward is. Edward, additionally, is a perfect companion after dinner. Because he will just sit there and murmur a lullaby in your ear and brush his fingers trough your hair, Oh man please let me have an Edward too!! That is just perfect! He doesn’t lecture you to death nor annoy you to sleep.

Have a good weekend and Happy Halloween!
The candy I picked was m&m. This describes me perfectly because I am a fantastic person to be around. When you are with me you will have a blast, I am always acting silly. I'm a girl who is full of suprises and loves to laugh. I care about people's feelings if I see you crying or with a frown on your face I will always come up to you and ask whats wrong.
If Jacob Black were to go trick-or-treating he would be and m&m because he is always grinning and happy whenever he and bella are together. He is always acting silly. He also cares for bella, he dosent want to hurt her like edward did.
"It's just that, I know you're unhappy a lot. And, maybe it dosen't help anything, but I wanted you to know that I'm always here. I won't ever let you down-I promise that you can count on me. Wow, that does sound corny. That i would never hurt you?"-Jacob Black Pg.218
Life is beyond doubt a box of chocolates, at least for me. Despite life’s sometimes repetitive course, the truth of the matter is that no one can predict what will happen next. I don’t know what will happen the next time I get on a car, or if I go to sleep and never wake up again, you don’t know this either. No one does. Yes, it is scary, but that is just how life works. However, not all of life’s surprises are horrible. Many are practically out of this world. I’ve had a great deal of surprises in my life. Many that I would have never imagined. For instance, never in my life would I have come to imagine that I would have a little brother and that he would become the center of my life. He is one of life’s biggest and most precious gift ever!
Life is like the ocean, you never know when the next storm is going to hit and swallow up the sunshine. However, we can choose the way in which we react. While some people sit down and sulk, I have always chosen to see the bright side of everything, no matter how dark the world and the waters around me are. I never give up, and I always try by best to survive the freighting storm until calm takes over and the sun smiles down on me once more. Despite not being able to change life’s course we can choose which path to take. Life’s greatest virtues are unforeseen and that is what makes life so interesting and why we cherish it so much.
Candy
According to the candy I selected, I am romantic and loving. I care about other people and can be counted on in a pinch. Plus, I tend to melt in romantic situations. Milky Way is not my favorite candy, not by a long shot. But despite this, the description fits me perfectly. I truly care about other people, not just myself. And all of my friends know that they can always count on me for everything. I have 3 really close friends, and I‘ve always been the mediator. Though I am not the oldest, I am the one they usually come to for help. Everyone says that I am a loving and warm person and I am friends with everyone. Plus I am definitely a romantic. Conclusively, the Milky Way candy provides a perfect description of me.

To begin with, the candy that I selected was M&M's. This describes me because I am those type of people that loves to laugh for anything. I'm never caught up with a bad situation & if I am, I don't let it get to me. I always tend to put a smile on my face. I have been told that I am fun to be with & to be honest I agree because I'm a energetic person & I can make anyone feel better when they are not feeling well. It is just who i am.
My favorite new moon character is Edward Cullen ♥. If Edward were to go trick-or-treating, the candy he would select would be crunch. I say this because Edward is very reliable. He does what he has to do & makes sure Bella is always safe & in good hands. Moreover Crunch relates to Edward because he is always trying to continue working toward a goal despite the fact that it is a difficult situation he is being held in but whenever that is pulled aside he is just another piece of the crunch bar that can have fun at the same time.

Life is definetly like a box of chocolates. Nothing is set in stone, you'll never really know what life has in store for you. Right now, you can be healthy and safe, but you don't know if that can change tommorow. Even though some things can be pretty predictable like the grades you will get depending on your effort in school, others like the far future, aren't. For example, never in my life would I have thought that out of 10 other students that could have won first place in "Do the Right thing", I would be the one going to London. It's just like a box of chocolates, you never really know what you're going to get. You either get the sweet, creamy chocolate, or the one that makes you want to spit it back out. You never really know.
As for the candy descriptions, what a coincidence that I happened to pick the exact chocolate that matches my personality- Milky Way. Though it isn't at all my favorite, it happens to go hand-in-hand with my character and personality. I always want to help others in their times of need. Whenever anyone has a problem, I'm the first one there trying to fix it. Moreover, I am guilty of being a hopeless romantic. I love candle-light dinners and cuddling up to my special someone while watching a corny chick flick. I've also been told to be like gum to a shoe, I love giving affection to those that I love. It may sound cheesy, but it is important to me that everyone knows how much they mean to me. And so it can be seen that the Milky Way is my perfect match.

C-Rod, you don't have twix there. Does it mean i'm difficult?
Hey Mrs I got twixt but its not there:(
What do I do?
Idk I think is something about sexy... Idk! I will just check in the bookmark, and see if its there.
In your class I got m&m’s. I think that this does match my personality because I love to laugh and love to make people laugh. Also people love to hang out with me because I always welcome you to the group instead of excluding them. Also I have a good heart because I love to help people explecauly when they need it because if I don’t I will feel bad. Also I am fun to be with because im always creating new things to do and I will be the dare devil in the group.
My favorite character in the book is Jacob and I think he would get Milky Way. I think he would pick this because he always keeps Bella in a good mood and never tries to disappoint her. Also he is very warm to Bella because in the book he always doing what she asks like he teaches her how to ride the motorcycle and protect her from the other wolfs.
I do agree with the quote because you never know what will happen next in life. You may want to do something this weekend but it might turn out another way. Sometimes we are not happy with what we have or with what we get but what we need to realize is that we should be thankful for everything that we have. We expect to have everything that we want and when we don't get it we get mad and we don't know that there might be some else that can't have the things that we have.
The candy bar that I chose was Baby Ruth and I think that it does relate to me because I am sweet and loving and care for other people. I will try to help you with what I can and try to make you feel better. I think that I am a friendly person and you could talk to me about anything.

I remember one day, me and my mom sit down in the car. I ask her "Mom what do you think is going to happen with our home in a year?" Her answer to me was that life changes all the time, it never becomes a repetion of something. Maybe my dad will get a raise, or maybe the economy will get better and we dont have to worry about loosing our house. What i am trying to explain is that "Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what your going to get". LIfe has its ways of changing, and with that it changes our actions and destiny. I truelly belive that life never reapets itself. It continually changes. We as people must learn how to live with these changes, it mught be hard sometimes but in the end, we must "role with the punches" and conform with the changes.

As you know already im the kind of guy the almost lways has a smile on his face. Always cracking jokes and making fun of everything. How funny that the candy bar i recieved was a snickers. The discription of the snicker resembles almost perfectly my personality. My friends love being around me because I am a fnny and outgoing guy, dont forget cute ;). I am usually never seriouse, only when something seriouse has happened. Fun loving? That is deffinetley me, if you a good person I will become one of the best friends you will ever have.
Life is most definitely like a box of chocolates. You never know what your going to get until you take that first bite. Sometimes your not happy with what flavor you got but you have to deal with it because that is what you got. Don't complain or whine, just accept what you got and be happy you have something. But when you receive something good appreciate it and enjoy it. For example, you pick up a caramel filled chocolate. That candy could resemble you getting a good grade in a test that you just took in 4th period. But than you pick up a coconut filled chocolate, urghh. That coconut chocolate could resemble food being spilled on top of you by mistake in lunch. But, you just ignore it because its just one bad chocolate in a bag full of good ones.
Candy
I think that the candy that I choose does resemble my personality in a way. But, I could also have little bits and pieces from other candies. Babe Ruth fits me because I am sweet and nice to people and I do love warm fuzzy things. I am pretty friendly and people could come talk to me about anything and I wouldn't mind.

The candy that i picked when i walked in the room was a snicker.Which says that"You are fun-loving, sassy, humorous. Everyone enjoys being around you. But you are a practical joker!"I think that the snicker describe me perfectly because I'm that type of girl that always have a smile no matter what.I enjoy being with people just like they enjoy being with me.I think that you can be with me forever and you will never get bored of me,because i will always keep you entertain.And of course I'm a lover not a fighter.
My favorite character in new moon is definitely Jacob.The perfect candy to describe him i think is Milk Way.He cares about people,and will never let them down.For example when he made the promised to Bella,he never broke it,well so far.Hes also a loving person for always being there for Bella even though he knows she thinks like Edward.And whenever Bella is with him he keeps her warm.
Do you honestly know what is going to happen in the next week? I'm pretty sure you have a general idea that you'll be spending time with your friends. But do you know that you'll probably end up getting engaged with the love of your life? Or maybe plan an out-of-the-blue trip to Canada? I doubt it. Like what Forrest’s mom says, "Life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get." Although you may know the general idea of what to expect in a box of chocolate; you don’t know the variety of flavors your teeth will take a bite into.
Candy:
The bowl of goodies offered plenty of chocolates and I happen to grab a Butterfinger to fulfill my stomach. I’m not sure about the meaning behind it; I just picked it up because I like the candy. Now, if you look at it as me having butter fingers, I definitely fit the role because I drop everything I lay a hand on. But based on the candy descriptions, I’m not sure about me being a good teacher, or articulate. I’m terrible at expressing myself with clarity because somehow I can never find the correct words that will explain how I feel or I just can’t put the words together. Due to this, it’s also difficult for me to explain certain things in a way that people would be able to comprehend. Therefore, the description is not completely accurate, but I still enjoy eating the candy.

The quote "life was like a box of chocolate, you never know what your going to get" is a simile which is allegorizing life to a box of chocolate. What the quote is trying to accentuate is that life is full of surprises, or it can also mean life is a gamble. One way we like every other living thing can make a reference to this quote is with our life cycles; we are born, then we live life with the liklihood that today might be our day and then the day arrives and we die. Also the quote is try to convey that we live life in expecance of a surprise, such as today you have plans to go to the beach. The day awakens bright and luminous. When you arrive to the beach, gray clouds surpass the white clouds and within minutes the clouds begin to weep and your plans get ruined. And just like the quote, this occured without expectancy.
As I looked into the bowl full of candy I reached out and grabbed the candy I enjoy the most. What a coincidence I had happen to grab a candy that very well describes me. My luck was a Milky Way! The meaning behind the Milky Way describes me perfectly. As many may know I have a warm and loving attiude towards others. I feel that everyone should always feel like they have a friend that can always be there for them, I also believe people should always be treated kindly and respect. And most importantly everyone deserves to be treated equally I guess this is what makes me a very warm hearted person. The romantic I don't know too much about that part but I guess it does apply to me as well. And lastly the meaning behind the Milky Way states that I am the type of person who cares about others, and can be counted on in a pinch. That is extremley accurate. I always try to help others just as I expect them to do as well, and even if they dont I always try to be the bigger person.Therefore the candy description fits me correctly, and the best part about it was the candy made me feel fullfill.

My candy selection was 3 Musketeers.It relates to me in a tremendously way.I am extremely adventurous and always adore to go to different places.Futhermore I love new ideas and love to come up with them.
My favorite New Moon character is Bella.I think the candy that resembles Bella's personality is Crunch.Bella is truly a reliable person,because in New Moon we get to read along and we find out that Jacob can count on her as well as she can count on Jacob.In addition Bella is not really a persevere person when it comes to stressful situations because as Edward leaves her she feels like it's the end of the world.Then the situation changes because she see's Jacob and things are getting much better.
The candy I chose as I walked into the room was M&M’s. This means “You are a very fun loving person who likes to laugh. You are fun to be with. People like to hang out with you because you are a very warm-hearted person.” This description totally goes with me because I have plenty of friends that adore being with me. I always have a smile on my face. I’m the type of girl you always see laughing and cracking jokes. I tend to laugh at anything for no reason. I’m a great friend to others, and always there when needed. I know how to make others smile, I’m simply a loving girl :) Get to know me, and you’ll have your self a new best friend ♥.
My favorite character in New Moon is Jacob ♥♥♥. In my opinion, the candy bar that Jacob would choose trick or treating would be a milky way. Milky Way means “You are romantic, warm, and loving. You care about other people and can be counted on in a pinch. You tend to melt in romantic situations.” How does this explain Jacob? Jacob is always there to comfort Bella. Jacob really does care about Bella. Bella calls him her best friend. Bella can’t imagine herself without him. On page 288 Jacob tells Bella “I promised you that I wouldn’t ever hurt you” In addition, Jacob also tells Bella on page 317, not to be afraid of Jacob, the pack, Charlie or her getting hurt.

Happy Halloween Miss, have a great weekend!♥
- Trick or treat activity:
I choose to be the mouth watering twix candy bar. Not to be conceded but i'm sexy because I know how to manage with myself. For example , for the right occasions , I can dress very sexy and appear stunning. Not only that , but I can act with a flirty sex appeal , but doesnt mean I'm a sexual freak; because I'm not. As for giving , when people ask something from me ; depending on what it is , I always give because i'ts an astonishing feeling.Knowing that you're making someone you care for bliss. And anyways , i'ts better to give then to receive. More fulfilling. Furthermore , I'm very energetic. I'm almost always up and about doing things. If i'ts not working out ,I can be painting my nails and etc.. Also , I truly love expressing the way I feel or what I'm thinking. For example,if I want to dance or sing at the right instant , I do just that.
In addition , not enjoying what life's offering me is not an option. I love to do mostly all that defines fun. For instance, every weekend I go out, and enjoy my time being there. Also , Im an opportunity taker. Like in school there's plenty of extracurricular activities I can join in to make my highschool years more memorable and I'm taking advantage of that opportunity because I'm a wrestling manager and soon i'll be in the gems : ). To put it short , I'm very open to numerous things and don't like misssing out.
Lastly , since no one's perfect not everyone will always be attracted to you. Even though , a ton of guys do get attracted to me and are usually on my case! Following me around , and , all that guys do to try pursuing a girl. haha. : ).
If Jacob were to trick or treat he'd grab the 3 musketeers candy bar. For the fact that he is truly adventorous and enjoys trying modern things. Like the time when he ventured hiking with Bella , or , the time when he tried teaching Bella how to ride a motorcycle. Also , in chapter 15 , page 351-352 he states " Got it!" Didn't I promise to take you cliff diving?" Perfect example of him receiving a modern idea. Furthermore , Jacob is a master of underdogs. For instance, after Jacob and Paul walked in emily's house, (in chapter 14 ,page 334) Bella questioned Jacob " You okay?" ,and Jacob replied " Not a scratch on me". Precisely proving that he's not an underdog , but a master of one at their disadvantage compared to him. In conclusion , Jacob could be seen as a dragon slayer as well as a champion of underdogs because after all Laurent is a fictional beast , or a vampire with ferrocious manners. And when Jacob and the rest of the pack noticed Laurents intentions of killing Bella , they all tempered , or exploded and whipped out their sabers or violence and slayed (killed) the dragon ; or Laurent. : ).
Crunch:
The candy that I chose was crunch. This candy stands for being a reliable person. Crunch describes my personality because I am a exciting person. When it comes to school work and grades, I get all nerdy because I long for to get my work done. For example, when it comes to projects, I make sure it's a group effort activity. This always happens to me because sometimes my group leaves me to do all the work. Sometimes I get irritated because I'm always the one doing the work. Now, I am a joyful, out bud person. I always crazed for to have a exciting time because there are so many new adevntures to face in life. I'm always the one who loves to have numerous amount of excitement. When I have a stressful situation, I go to my parents for advice because they know whats best for me. Even though I crazed for enormous amount of exciting adventures, I always get my work done before I do anything that makes me laugh and have a good time.
Character candy:
My favorite New Moon character is Jacob Black. The 3 musketeers represents Jacob because he is a fantatstic person to Bella. He is always their to care and have an amazing time with Bella. Jacob always has clumsy, incredible, exciting and dangerous situation with Bella. For example, when Bella fell off the motorcycle, he was their for her to make her feel better. As well as, when Jacob introduce Bella to the pack, they are going to protect her from any harm. But, sometimes Bella ends up in horrible, disgusting situations that Jacob is here to save the day. It was a shock when Jacob killed laurent to protect Bella from getting killed. He loves her, which means he would have to extremly protect her. When he turns into a wolve, its this huge, gigantic, re-brown wolve that would do anything for her. Even thought Jaco9b has an amazing, felicitious time with Bella, he would get rage when anyone comes his way.

(: [Trick or Treat activity] ;
The candy bar i chose, as soon as
i entered my class was the scrumptious 'Twix which states that {"you are sexy, always ready to give, very energetic, and you really like to get the most out of life. the opposite sex is always attracted to you.}
" I feel that everything on here describes me perfectly, for several reasons.
-As an individual I do find myself to be sexy, and I don't want to sound arrogant in any shape or form, but I'm extremely confident,
and I find confidence very sexy.
furthermore, I am a person that is always ready to give. I honestly feel that giving is much better than receiving , because that shows you what type of person you are, and i'm a very generous being.
Also, I am very energetic, you will never see me being silent for a minute, im always chit- chatting with people, being crazy and hyper, what can I say? thats just me, and I feel that people enjoy my company. In addition , I really like to get the most out of life !
I'm always going out, having a great time with friends or family,
and enjoying every second of my life :D
I don't consider myself perfect, but I can say that the opposite sex is always attracted to me,
because ,most times guys try to get with me , and other times continuously flirt ;)
New moons character chosen candy;
So far my favorite character is Jacob. I feel that if he went trick or treating on halloween he would choose the candy bar milky way. milky way means that, "you are romantic, warm loving. You care about other people and be counted on in a pinch. you tend to melt in romantic situations". * jacob is a sweetheart, he's always there for bella, and like he promised he would never hurt her, * for example in page 311, bella asks jacob * why didnt you think it was safe for you out there? * jacob responds :" i didnt say it wasn't safe for me, I was thinking of you ". so as you see jabob is a thoughtful kindhearted person. And as for him melting in a romantic situation, he takes pleasure in being near bella , and im sure that he feels treasured when hes around her.
well i got m and m. so yeah this candy does match me cause i thing i am a well loving person. and i guess people feel comfretable when there around me. im not a discortant person, well i cant be if you piss me off.lol, but yeah i think this candy really matches me.
my favorite character is edward, and the candy that i think he will pick if he went trick or treating is the 3 musketeers. i think he will pick this candy cause edward as i read on the book, he likes to travel around. and when you get him mad he will flare up and explod on people.
The candy I picked was crunch bar. It describes a happy-go-lucky person. This describes a lot about me because even when everyone's gloomy on a bright sunny day, I still come along and crack a corny joke to make someone smile. I also do try to my hardest when it comes to work but I usually end up slacking off and go play XBOX or do something fun, like eating.(: I'm also reliable. When someone is in need of something, I always try to come along and try to help out or try to solve their situation. Around my friends I'm usually the "savior" of their mishaps.
The character I would choose to go trick or treating would be Jacob Black. I think he would get the Baby Ruth candy bar. Because the way Jacob treats Bella in her time of need after Edward left, he's there to mend her broken heart. And to Bella, Jacob is the sun, and that’s what keeps her warm mentally and physically when she’s at his side because he fills the missing hole in her chest. Also, He has his stories of the wolf tribes and the secrets that lead Bella to find out what he his is along with the wolf gang and the story between the Cullen’s and the territory in La Push thus, making him interesting to talk too anytime.
Jackie S. p.3
"Life is like a box of chocolate. You never know what you're gonna get."
People make plans and predictions for the future but in the end the outcome can never be garunteed to be one thing or another. I once had a plan, it involved me graduating from MAST Academy and going to Duke University. That plan was shattered when I ended up at MLEC and now I'm at HGHS and an Air Force Academy hopeful, what a twist! According to theoretical science (the string theory) the future is always changing only reinforcing the box of chocolate description. Like they say in the military, "If you have a plan something is bound to go wrong."
I chose a Crunch bar and I know the first sentence is as far off of any description of my personality as one can get. I tend to be realistic to the point of pessimism. Now the rest of the description is rather accurate considering that I'm constantly being chosen to do one job or another or appointed to positions of leadership. Considering that my life is a stressful situation the third sentence is truthful. I work well under pressure, boot camp was a prime example, but I can still find something to laugh at in the process.
Trick or Treat Assignment
Kassandra! Please stop playing around all my friends are always telling me. Especially my boyfriend I never leave him alone its 24/7 joking with him. Sometimes I can see he feels like strangling me to death. When I reed what snickers personality was I just couldn’t stop. I was rolling in the floor laughing of how funny it was to me. It was exactly how I am it picture perfect like it was destined for me. I’m also very loving exactly how it says on the description. A snicker is the ideal candy bar for me when you read it its describing exactly me. If you want to know my personality just read what snickers means and it’ll tell you my exact personality. I don’t even have to say a word.
Jacob:
Pick a candy Jacob anyone you want. I got “M&M’s” he says. Perfect! Now lets read if this candy matches your personality. Fun, loving, likes to laugh, and warm hearted the candy bar has listed. It sounds exactly how Jacob is its so alike it’s like a reflection in the mirror. Bella always laughs when she’s with Jacob he’s the only person that makes her laugh. She also feels very comfortable when she’s besides him. When she’s not with him for less than 2 seconds it’s like a whole forms in her stomach and she cant live with out him. This should tell you all you need to know about him. M&M’s is the exact reflection of Jacob.
kassandra period #3
Happy halloween' (;
The candy I picked was crunch. This particular candy does symbolize me because I am a reliable person. Friends come to me for advice due to the fact that I am circumspective person, I make sure to analyze the situation from all points of view.
If Jacob went trick or treating I am more than sure that he would choose Twix as his candy. Jacob is extremely attractive and from not only the book but also pictures can prove that. But aside from that Jacob is also outrage sly energetic he’s always up for something new. He’s always ready to give and take the most out of life. And as his wolf colors symbolize him he is energetic and sexy.
The candy bar I choose was the creamy nougaty Milky Way, and this means Im supposed to be a romantic person but thats not really me. Even though milky way is the most delicious one its not what Im about. Instead Im an M&M because I am a fun loving person who laughs at anything, and people like my company.
My favorite New Moon character is Edward Cullen and the candy he would most likely choose would be 3 Musketeers because Edward dosent play around when It comes down to buisness and he knows exactly what to do. For example when Jasper was about to attack Bella and Edward ferociously knocked him out of the way and took care of the problem to keep Bella safe.
"Life is like a box of chocolate. You never know what you're gonna get."
You look into a box of sweet chocolates, close your eyes and reach inside. Now you know the probabilities of you grabbing one candy compared to another, but you’re never sure what you’ll pull out. This analogy is a very unique, but very accurate, way at looking at. In life you never know where you’re going to make a turn and accidently pull out something unexpected. All the possible outcomes are in that box, but only one is going to be picked. From personal experiences I have found that life is more like a candy store that just a box. Take my freshman year for example. When I heard there was going to be a new school at first I was confused on whether I should pick the candy to stay in Goleman or pick the candy to go to Westland or the candy to Hialeah gardens. When they told me the new school I thought we were going to be moved to Westland. But I thought I was the only one going to Hialeah gardens. So I went from being in Goleman to almost going to Westland until I found out that it was Hialeah gardens that we were all suppose to go to. Here I had a box with three candies and when I reached I pulled out a green black and silver wrapped piece of chocolate. It’s funny because when I was in middle school I thought I would have a normal high school experience. But after one year in Goleman, the next transferring to a new school but being housed in another, coming to a new building my junior year, and being the first graduating class, I would hardly call my high school experience normal. But I really wouldn’t have changed one second of it all. I was amazed at what the turn out was.
According to the candy I selected I am adventurous, love new ideas, and are a champion of underdogs and a slayer of dragons and when tempers flare up, you whip out your saber. I would say I’m adventurous because I love the thrill and feeling of an adventure. I like being on my own and feeling like an adult and having to figure out things. As far as new ideas I am complely open to them. I have found that other people have idea that I may find useful and would otherwise be unable to think of myself. I sometimes end up loving the ideas so much I throw out my old ones. As far as slayer of dragons I don’t really like conflict or friction between people and I tend to stay out of it as much as I can but the nest part, when tempers flare I will whip out a saber and slice them up. I try to be liked by everyone but when I don’t like someone you better believe that the saber will be coming out and there will be some conflict.

Quote:
“Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get."
If everyone knew what they were going to get on a daily basis, life would not be as adventurous or exciting as it is. “Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you are gonna get.” My life is like a thrilling roller coaster ride, it has its ups and downs. One minute my life will be going in one direction, but in seconds it can change. For example, I will never forget one beautiful Christmas Eve when the lights were shimmering red, my family and friends were all gathered together, and the amazing Christmas tree that stood bright and tall in the middle of the house. Everything was perfect, what could go wrong? But a few hours later, my little sister was rushed to the hospital because she had an intense allergic reaction. My life had changed in a matter of seconds. I was filled with mixed emotions. It was indeed the scariest moment in my life because I did not know if I was ever going to see my little sister again. Little did I know God’s divine plan for Stephanie. Early the next morning at 4 am Stephanie was back home and breathing normal again. I thank God every day for leaving Stephanie with me because without her I do not know where I would be today. So even though that night was full of intensity it proves that Life is indeed like a box of chocolates and you never know what could happen or what you are going to receive.
Candy:
M & M’s - You are a very fun loving person who likes to laugh. You are fun to be with. People like to hang out with you because you are a very warm-hearted person.
Coincidentally, the M &M’ s that I chose proves to be accurate because it states that I am a very fun loving person who likes to laugh and that automatically gives away that I chose the right candy. You can hear my loud laugh from miles away. Not only that, but it says that I am fun to be with. It also says that people like to hang out with me because I am a very warm-hearted person. All of this information is 150% true about me. For the most part, all of my friends enjoy hanging out with me because they say that I am very kind. I always offer my help or assistance to everyone. If I ever see anyone in need I am the first to run to the rescue. My sweet tooth led me to choose the right candy for me. :)

AS I walked into class on Thursday i didn't think that the candy bar i had to pick for Halloween was going to tell so much about me. I picked snickers as my treat, I picked snickers as my candy bar personality. AS a very fun loving girl who love to be around people making them laugh for crazy naughty jokes. Although im not quite a practical joker every one enjoys being around me and just have fun. I am definitely sassy i got the way to talk around the boys. Which makes me a practical sassy girl.
If Bella,my favorite character from new moon went trick or treating i think she would pick Milky way chocolate bar because we can see how she is able to give Jacob a warm feeling, and shows him some love after being extremely in love with Edward. she can still care about other people. She tends to melt in romantic situations like she did with Edward and now with Jacob where she appear to be falling in love with.
I believe like life is more so like a candy store full of chocolates. You have the good, the bad, and the ones you expect to spit back out, but try them anyways because you never know what’s in store. You can’t predestine the course of events for your life by tasting one chocolate. In life we have the good chocolates, the moments in life we wish we could set on replay forever. We have the bad chocolates, in which we wish we could erase the horrible taste of moments, sometimes people we’d had any type of encounter with. Finally, there are the unexpected chocolates which are full of surprises, like life, and never thought you’d favor until you tried them and now you just can’t get enough. A science teacher once told me, “Lightning never strikes the same place twice.” If it did, in my case, it’ll be good luck. At no time in my life did I believe I’d run for my class president and win, not once, but twice. Being class president isn’t just a officer position, it’s my candy store of chocolates, it comes with the good, the bad, and just plain unexpected.
Whether or not someone may know me, they could tell instantaneously that I’m always full of energy and that I wear a smile as though my mouth depended on BOTOX. I assume this is why the Twix description suits me best. The Twix description describes me as someone “who is sexy, always ready to give, very energetic, and one really like to get the most out of life. The opposite sex is always attracted to me.” I believe this description fits me because I try not to worry about the small insignificant details in life. Things happen, move on. I was born and energetic, and it’s only natural that I give love and help to others because it’s part of who I am. Yes I’m sexy, and people are not only attracted to me but as well as the positive energy of when they’re around me, and confidence in life. I always say, a smile could take you far in life, as long as you make the best with what you got.

CRUNCH
Today in my favorite English class, I picked out a delicious crunch chocolate bar, out of a Halloween theme bowl. Believe it or not, the candy that i chose says a bunch about my personality. For example, crunch's symbolism is that I'm happy-go-lucky and in a crunch, I'm a person who is reliable and resilient. In addition, I can preserve under stressful situations, but i can have fun at the same time. This is very true about myself because I'm an extremely blissful person, and I laugh all the time. When times are tough and a friend needs a shoulder to lean on, I'm superb, plus I'm reliable. Under negative situations I can cheer up the atmosphere and produce a laugh a minute.
NEW MOON CHARACTER : EDWARD
MILKY WAY
If Edward were to go trick or treating he will most likely pick out a milky way. Milky way's symbolism is that you are a very romantic , caring and loving person. People can count on you in a pinch. As we all know, team Edward or not Edward is warm and loving towards Bella. The voice that we hear in "New Moon" pops out in numerous occasions, helping Bella decide what she should do. For example, when in the meadows with Laurent, Edward's voice instructs to lie, and that's exactly Bella does. Resulting in the death of Laurnet by Sam's gand and not Bella's.

Candy bar Personality.
The candy I chose was Twix. This means you are sexy, always ready to give, very energetic, and you really like to get the most out of life. The opposite sex is always attracted to you. I believe Twix is what represents my personality the best. I am a very giving person and I usually think of others before myself. I am energetic most of the time and I try not to let anyone bring me down. I always love to just have a good time and have a fantastic time with anything I intend to do.
If Bella were to go trick or treating she would most likely pick a Milky Way. You are romantic, warm, loving. You care about other people and can be counted on in a pinch. You tend to melt in romantic situations. Bella is a very caring person, especially when it comes to the people she loves. She keeps peoples secrets to herself; she wouldn't go around mentioning to anyone her problems. She is a very loving person as well. She can be counted on if you need someone there for you. She tends to melt and break down in romantic situations plenty of times.
Life such a simple word yet very complicated and soffisticated in many ways. Life contains many surprises much like a storm or christmas one can only hope that htey will recieve something great but no one may really recieve what they want. For example last christmas I was hoping for my scrabble game but instead I recieved a death in the family. And for that my family and I were devestated. Then comes my birthday and we find out that my mother was going to have a boy after being pregnant for a month. That was something bigger and better that happened for us.
Life itself work in the same way few people mentions life may take something precious to you but returns it even bigger. AS you grow up life treats you different then when you are younger. That is obvious but it also treats everyone in its unique game and we just play it blindly. Therefore when they voice the quote "Life was like a box of chocollates.You never know what you're gonna get." they are not lieing and are indeed meaning what they say.
CANDY!!!!!!!!
This fluffy tasty treat indicates that I am an adventurous person and one whom loves new ideas. This is exactlly true about me I am an extremely adventurous person, always looking for something in life, trying to discover some of the surprises or mystries of life.
TO be found of brrand new Thoughts is another fact on who I am. In fact I am one whom craves knowledge and for that I am open very widwely to new thoughts. Now slayer of dragons as in arguements most of the times I am but of hte actual mythical being no way I just love these fire breathing dinosaurs. And for champion of the underdogs only in pressure from time to time but other wise not really. Now when your flares are rising and me whipping out a sber that indeed is true because I am one that does not accept others to yell at. For that I will fight back and some time the words that comes out will mortally wound the soul of that whom started the arguemwnt. The candies description indeed is accurate with my personallity.

Uh! Can you believe my whole comment got deleted? (I was having Account problems) Uh!
Ok...here goes for the second time but never as good at the first ;D
Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get. Minty green, tangy orange, or sweet coconut? Wrapped in that layer of chocolate is something unpredictable and random. Will the taste turn sweet, bitter-sweet, salty? What will life bring us today? Happiness, joy, tragedy, misfortune? Each dab of flavor gives us an emotional memory that's hard to forget. Life's like that. Whenever we try another chocolate, it's like taking another experience or your life opening to another cycle/ chapter. And every time we finish one chocolate, it's aftertaste lingers for in our mouths; even when there's another chocolate we're biting into. Here's an example in real life: As a small child, I always wanted a scooter. My friends rode it joyously around me as I watched in envy. My parents never had enough money to get me such a toy, so the crave for one never stopped. Now, full 16 years of age and I still haven't forgotten that feeling of want for that scooter--even though life has taken me to farther and more exotic places than that of a simple scooter.
The character of a Butter Finger describes me pretty well but not purely as a whole. I don't like writing things again but yes, Butterfinger probably describes me well :)
Hey Mrs... Well the candy that I chose was Snickers. I believe the description applies to my qualities because I am always acting clumsy around my friends and family, also I don't take most things serious which is sometimes a tremendously negative quality.
The candy that goes with Edward's description is crunch. He is very reliable when it comes to those he cares about. He has been through numerous difficult situations and every decision he makes has a purpose, like the way he leaves Bella to protect her.

Life isn't just a box of chocolates, it's a box of different flavored chocolates. Every flavor is unique in every way possible. In fact, sometimes you may not know what they taste like until you try them. The truth is that nobody really knows what will happen next. Life is full of unpredictable and unexplainable events. Not all surprises cause us to struggle, many of them are the ones we want to cherish forever. For instance, my life took an unexpected turn when i started a new high school this year. I'm making the most out of it and it has turned out to be a great change in my life.
I found it quite ironic how i choose any chocolate in the bowl and it happened to be the candy that best describes me (M&Ms). Ask anyone and they'll tell you that I'm ALWAYS laughing, so when im not there must be something wrong. Also, I'm a fun person to be with because i'll make you laugh somehow. I'm a nice, warm-hearted person and i can be silly at times as well and that is what people love most about me.
PERIOD 6 CRYSTAL FERNANDEZ
In class I picked the candy Snickers, I believe that the description resembles my personality because, I believe I'm a pretty easy going girl whom people enjoy being around. I'm very optimistic and love laughing.
My Favorite character in New Moon has to be Edward, I think that Edwards personality would most resemble to the candy Crunch because Edward is very reliable to Bella Whenever she is in trouble and needs his help. Edward also is able to think under pressure.
The candy that I choose was Snickers. A snicker candy represents you for being fun-loving, sassy, and humorous. As well everyone enjoys being around you and you’re a practical joker. I think that I fall into this category due to the fact that I am a very blissful person. For example, I never let those little situations disturb me I just ignore them and smile. In fact people are always asking me why I’m always smiling. However, I do have my sense of humor and I like to have exciting moments in my life. Furthermore, people love hanging out with me, I guess it’s my personality.
My favorite character in the Twilight Saga, New moon is Edward Cullen. Besides the fact that he is hot he is so romantic and cares for Bella. This is why if he goes trick or treating he would most likely pick a milky way. A milky way symbolizes somebody romantic, warm, loving, care for others, trustworthy, and tend to melt in romantic situations. Edward throughout the book Edward isn’t there with Bella but he gives her advice which shows he cares for her. For example, when Bella tries to jump off the cliff she hears Edward’s voice say “Bella…Don’t do this…Please. For Me.” In addition, at the beginning of the book he really wanted to treat Bella for her birthday and he did.

Pr. 4
Has I walked to your class and there where many chocolates in a bowl, I picked the most watering candy and absolute delicious candy you can ever think of; TWIX. Twix says ("..your sexy, always ready to give, very energetic, and you really like to get the most out of life, the opposite sex is always attracted to you.") I believe that everyone is beautiful and has at least one unique quality or feature that no one has. I don’t considered myself a ugly person, indeed I think a pretty girl. "Always ready to give"- This represents me in the senses that if anyone needs a favor or is in need of something; i would be welcomed to help them out. Always ready to give, and not hoping to receive anything back. Actually, am not so much energetic only in certain situations; i guess you can say am energetic sometimes. The phrase of getting most of your life, doesn’t really define me. I take things a day at a time and let it be. "Opposite sex is always attracted to you"- Well am a girl, so I hope the opposite sex is attracted to me not the same sex. In other words, am not cocky or conceded so I really don’t have so much to opinionate much on that.
My favorite character is Edward and if Edward went trick o treating he would probably of picked; BUTTER FINGERS. Now the reason why I think he would of gotten the butter finger is because he is very of a smooth guy; he has hold his calm in tough situations. Edward, has always been clear about all the situations he has taken and a very well spoken. Jacob resembles more of a young naive kid when Edward represents a more of a teacher. His looking out for Bella and teaching her many things that neither did Jacob or Bella would of known; since Edward has lived many centuries.
:)
If Jacob were to go Trick or Treat he would have probably picked:3 Musketeers. This candy bar represents him extremely because he is an adventurous person. For example, he desires for riding bikes and go hiking with Bella. He as well loves new ideas. We see him after flaring up whipping out the saber in chap.14 how he and Paul fight after something that Paul had uttered. He goes all crazy and lunatic on Paul.
As I walked in your class I saw many chocolates to choose from but I picked Snickers. I believe it represents me a miniature but not completely. It represents (fun loving, sassy, humorous. Everyone enjoy being around you. But you are a practical joker.) To the fun loving part it is true since I desire many times to have fun and I love others. To sassy maybe I am maybe am not I don't exactly know. To humorous yes totally I always crack up for almost anything, "Hey u got to live life happy." To practical joker I don't believe it because I don;t like to joke around so often.
Geisa p-4
I completely agree with the quote: "Life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get." Everything from the minute you wake up until the second you go to sleep can be a surprise. Whether you wake up early or late, there’s never a guarantee that you’ll get to school on time, or that you’ll even get there at all. And when you “play your cards right” for something you want, that doesn’t mean you’ll get where you want to. For example, last year I did everything possible to get an A in English as my final grade in the third quarter, but the teacher didn’t want me to. To make a long story short, I did two huge projects and didn’t sleep the whole night to turn them in and boost my 89% up to an A, but she found enough defects to not boost me up. For this reason and many others, I believe that life is like a rollercoaster; it has countless unexpected turns and when you think you know what’s happening, it’ll flip you over and leave you lost once again. All in all, this is a very powerful quote that resembles my life very much, as I’m sure many others as well.
The personality description of the candy bar I chose, Snickers, partially describes me and in a way doesn’t. It is accurate in the sense that I do consider myself fun-loving, as well as sassy. I am usually happy and excited on a daily basis, and I am very loving and caring towards my close friends and family. Furthermore, I believe people enjoy being around me, or at least I’d like to think so! On the other hand, the part which says that I am humorous and a practical joker could not have possibly been a worse description of me. For me to laugh it takes something extremely funny, because I have barely any humor at all and I can’t tell a joke to save my life. All in all, the description was not fully correct but it still got some important parts of my personality.

The candy that I choosed as I walked in the creepy and hunting class of Mrs. Rodriguez (lol)was the baby Ruth, truthfully I actually didn’t know that there would be an assignment of this but I then though.. Wait this is Mrs. Rodriguez that I’m talking about and she always makes something fun and exciting over everything and so I waited and we did, and so they way this candy resembles my personality is for the following reasons. first of all I am an extremely sweet person towards all of my family, friends and generally anyone since I would love for them to forever be treated genuinely great by a sweet person who takes there time in helping them in no matter on their troubles no matter how good/bad they might be plus I would actually want to be that person who will be remembered as the sweet person. I’m moreover an extremely loving person towards everyone who frequently just wishes to make them happy plus for them to just have the most excellent times in life for the reason that the most imperative thing is that it is a vital thing to be loving towards your loved ones or anyone since when they are happy then so I’m I .I'm moreover a exceptionally cuddly person who is constantly there giving people moral support when they require it, in addition to that I’m as well at all times just a corner away from them and that if the require someone there loving and/or helping them by basically being there, giving them support and giving them a huge warm hug and make their frown into a smile then I’m the one doing that. furthermore I'm as well a sort of nutty person however I'm a especially an fascinating person to talk to seeing as I can generally construct a conversation whether it is a good or bad situation in addition to making it fun to talk about along with that I can start to make stuff up about what we are talking about as the conversation progresses subsequently making them smile and make them feel all warm inside and for all that anger or fright disappear.
If I had to pick any of the characters of the new moon I would choose my favorite character which is Jacob and if he where going to go trick-or-treat with me the candy that he would prefer would be the 3 musketeers. It would have to be that candy since Jacob is an awfully adventurous person who loves new ideas, an example of this was when Bella asked him if they could find a sentimental place in the forest which was the meadow and Jacob absolutely was excited by the idea along with they then went hiking in the forest to find it. He is as well a champion of underdogs for the reason that he is a incredibly talented person, for instance it would be of when Sam told him that he extremely could not tell anyone about their secret in addition to then even though that he could not tell Bella the secret he somewhat gave her clues to figure it out therefore being a champion. He is also a slayer of dragons which habitually means that he is the excellent guy in addition to that he tries to conquer the horrific guys along with making it easier to live moreover an example of this was when Bella and Laurent where in the forest unaccompanied and Laurent was awfully thirsty as well as he wanted to taste her blood and in the split minute that he was about to attack her Jacob came all of a unexpected out of nowhere and save her life. finally when tempers flare, he whips out his saber, what this mostly means is that seeing as Jacob wants to be charitably hero like character in the story he will go to the lengths of anything to save everyone and to make a difference in their lives by making it better therefore being like the light to those people in the darkness when they need it most.
I do not agree with the quote that "Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get." I don't think that this quote describes my life because I pretty much like every type of chocolate, and there are a couple of things that have occurred in my life that I do not really like or appreciate. Life has unexpected events and there is no way to predict what is going to happen. There is no map to guide you into the right direction. When you buy a box of chocolates, it usually comes with a leaflet which gives you an idea of what flavor the chocolate you are about to eat is. Life doesn't work that way. You won't know what's about to come at you,or what consequences might come out of your actions.
When I walked in to class, I picked one of my favorite chocolates from the candy bowl-Baby Ruth. Little did i know that the piece of chocolate I chose could relate to me so much. I constantly hear from my friends that I am one of the sweetest people they've met. I think they say this because I put them before myself and I'm always there to help out with any problem that someone might have. I'm very affectionate and I like showing the people I care about exactly how much I do care about them in any way,shape,or form. Cuddling is definitely a way in which I show this. I do love fuzzy things like my hamster and my puppy and there are some things about me i'm sure you'll find interesting. (:

I believe that the crunch bar description fits into my personality perfectly. I am totally reliable and I would be the perfect example of a friend. In ways I do preserve under stressful situations, but it doesn't always have to be me (friends, parents, etc.) Therefore, I always have fun and I like helping people with there problems.
My favorite New Moon character would have to be Jacob cause he's a werewolf "laugh out loud". I think that Jacob would get a 3 musketeers. I acknowledge this because when Jacob gets mad he really lets his anger out and turns into a werewolf. Also, Jacob is really adventurous and he loves to make new ideas. You can tell because he is frequently trying to go out with Bella.
This quote basically means that life is full of suprises. You never know what you are going to get. Life has different outcomes and expectations from us that no one really knows about. The comparison with the box of chocolates comes to show that in life anything can happen at any unexpected time. A box of chocolates has a variety of different types of chocolate, but you don't know what type of chocolate you get until you try it. This is similar to life. I believe people should live life by letting certain things happen and leaving it all up to their destiny.
The candy bar I chose was Crunch. According to the description, it says that Im happy-go-lucky and resilient. This candy bar does not accurately describe me completely. I may at times be happy-go-lucky, but usually I have a straight face. I tend to be happy most of the time, but I don't let my emotions show. However, if something in my day doesn't turn out how I want it to, then my whole day is ruined. I guess I can be resilient. I try hard to think positively and manage problems and stress well.
"Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what your gonna get."I do definitely agree with this certain quote because life is full of surprises or different flavors like a box of chocolates. You never know what will come to you if its a good time or bad time but even if its a bad time you need to look ahead. Not just the bad times but cherish all the joyful times. Life is not constant it has ups and downs and many surprises you just need to think of all the good things you have that maybe others dont even have half of what you have. For example, I was complaining about doing bad in a test, but there was people who maybe did worse and werent. So you need to be happy with what you have and next time do better in the test.
Candy:
According to my candy, 3 musketeers I am adventurous, love new ideas, a slayer of dragons and underdog, and when tempers flare up, you whip out your saber. I would say it is sort of like me, I am adventurous I like seeing new things and places. However, not much a lover of new ideas I like to stay with one idea and not change. As to slayer of dragons I dont like to fight or discuss with anyone unless I have to. However, when my temper goes up I do whip up my saber and I do get a temper. For example, I may be very calm and I get mad at someone or something my temper goes up quickly.

This quote I must most definitely defend. You can't always think that you know what life has in store for you because in the end life is a total surprise offering you different things at random moments in time. Take one of my own experiences for example, I had this one girlfriend and things seemed good at first between us but suddenly everything went sour between us and it ended. It was like a box of chocolates because I figured everything was excellent and then reality and life hit me with the truth that was very unexpected. That is why I always say that this quote is very true and nothing in life should ever be taken for granted no matter how confident you are. No all of the surprises that life throws at you are going to be fascinating but you just have to learn to get the best of it and also learn that "Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get."
Butter Fingers was my candy bar. Honestly that candy bar does describe some of my attributes very accurately and clearly, not all of them thought. I am a very smooth person when it comes to speaking and other situations. A example would be the smooth talking I do to my girlfriend; it's very good and cute and well I speak very nice to others as well. I do agree that after dinners I always have good conversations and can keep them going for a good amount of time. At teaching I would have to have that I'm fascinating. I can teach almost anything and I'm positive that I would get my message and teaching across to the other person. Overall I guess that I am a very sexy "Butter Fingers" except i don't understand what it means by "Don't try to walk and chew gum at the same time".

Life’s wonders are a virtue of unexpected twist and turns as a box of chocolates. Assorted in its delicacies sweet and bitter built into a compacted box of complexity. This quote has validity to an extreme extent; nothing is planned out and goes planned. In experiences in life such as any natural perplexed mammal, a thought of how something is desired is plopped up into your head, with the intention everything will go smoothly as planned. The goal is for the desired to take its course into happy smooth land thus happening the way you conceived the thought, although some things might work into your favor there’s always the chance, something unexpected might arise to shift the course of your outcome. It’s like picking a chocolate at random, no label, brown in plain sight, and grabbing the first one you see, you know you want chocolate, the desired, but what you didn’t know was what joy and flavor was wrapped into that little chocolate. But you took the risk and enjoyed the excitement of not knowing what you’re going to get, life just happens to be the same; you never know what you’re going to get so enjoy its purposes.
Hershey’s happen to be the selection my fingers undertook, I was mesmerized by the brown labeling and the delicious flavor that pops into my mouth, what can I tell you I’m a sucker for chocolate! This resembles my personality because it’s a smooth and classic candy such as the qualities I posses. Smooth in the way that I expresses myself, lines of poetic beauty directing from the masses of my heart, expressive in everything that I do, I simply put my all. Classic in the pearls that I wear, and the color of my hair, I will be a timeless portrait of magnitude and Hershey’s will be along on my journey. You see Hershey’s is a chocolate that has been around forever, very famous for its simplicity and the marking of a historical contribution to the world, I hope to be amongst its greatness.
"Life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get."
I strongly defend this quote because it's true that we as people never know what's going to happen. You notice how weathermen are usually close to the outcome of the weather but never exact. The same goes for surgeons. They never know exactly how a surgery will go, or if something will go wrong. Why do people get nervous for things? Important appointments, first school plays, a first kiss? They don't know how everything will turn out and it all proves this quotes point. A real life experience of mine is my medical issue. I've had kidney reflux since birth but I stopped going to my tests at around 11 years old. Now, I'm frightened of what they will tell me when I go back. I'm scared of needing a kidney transplant which was an option when I was younger if it got any worse and I'm terrified of being forced to go through anymore tests. In life nothing is certain, all we can do is find out what is going to happen when it does.
SNICKERS – You are fun-loving, sassy, humorous. Everyone enjoys being around you. But you are a practical joker!
Snickers fits my personality pretty well. I do love to have fun, but there are times where I'd much rather be left alone and away from people. Sassy definitely describes me. I have low tolerance for people or anything, I get upset very easily. Getting upset brings out my sassiness. I find myself quite humorous but I'm not sure if many people enjoy to be around me. Practical jokes, are a specialty in my life. I love playing pranks on Jessica as well as other people I'm close to. Although there are a few things that aren't exactly fitted to my personality, the description is pretty close. As a matter of fact, last year Mr. Nehme would call me snicker all the time! (;

"Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get." This quote makes a lot of sense to me in the sense that you don't know what tomorrow has in store for you. To begin with, when you pick a chocolate out of a box it may seem as if it tastes delicious but the moment you bite into it you're in pure disgust. Same with life, sometimes you go down a path that seems to be right but the further you go the more you realize your mistake. Therefore you never go down that path again or, you never bite that chocolate again. You don't know what the future has in store for you, so you have to take a bite of every chocolate and if you don't like it, spit it back out and try a new one.
M & M’s - You are a very fun loving person who likes to laugh. You are fun to be with. People like to hang out with you because you are a very warm-hearted person.
I'd definitely describe myself as M&M's. I'm a very warm hearted person and i get along easily with others. I like to make others laugh and i never take myself too seriously. Although i have many friends, i'm not one to be very close to a specific person.

"Life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get."
Life is all about surprises; one never knows what will be next on their way. Life is like a box of chocolate; we enjoy it, even though sometimes the flavor of it might not be of our very own taste. In reality life is most of the times unexpected; it contains all sorts of experiences, goodies, and flavors, delicious, and other not very suitable. It’s like an adventure to flow with it changes, and to deal with every state of it. I personally have tasted life fully by now, I know what a hug full of love is like, and how a single word might damage a heart, and fill my eyes with tears. I know how a decision might turn out to be wrong, and how thing become different from what we expect. Just like in the book “Tuesdays with Morrie”, in life no every thing is as we like it, as happened to Morrie with his illness, but every experience is a new flavor with discover, and become familiar with.
M & M’s - You are a very fun loving person who likes to laugh. You are fun to be with. People like to hang out with you because you are a very warm-hearted person.
The candy I chose was M & M’s; this is with no doubt my favorite candy bar. It’s grate to see my personality revealed in the description of my candy bar. According to this description, I am a very fun person, which is loved by others for being warm-hearted. I totally favor this exceptional over look, because just like it says, I love having fun, and there is nothing that can make a better day for me than a good reason to laugh. Actually, yesterday I was hanging out with my best friend, and he said something that is also shown in the description; he said that having me around was like having a personal package of smiles ready to be ware on his lips. Having a final look to my personal qualities mentioned in this candy bar description, I agree it is accurate, because it says the truth of my personality, fun and warm-hearted.

“Life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re gonna get.”
This metaphor rather, exempts the balance by which life is designed. Of everyone knew what was going to happen next, there would be no excitement, no celebration to great achievements and no motivation to keep people from giving up at things. Basically people wouldn’t be more or less satisfied because they would know what would happen next. For example, In “Tuesdays with Morrie,” while eating dinner and skipping thru the channels (the TV being the box and the channels representing the chocolates), Mitch never knew that he was ever going to see Morrie again, which changed his life drastically and brought back emotions that developed the love and compassion he once had in life. If Mitch would have known that he was going to see Morrie, the transition from an ambitious man to a concerned loving man would have never occurred. I strongly believe that the change of events that happened in life are always random and are spontaneous to further build on our character and mature us as we grow up into older people. Ultimately, not knowing what you’re going to get, makes the reward or consequence even sweeter, making one a wiser person for the obstacles that one has put in their destiny.
M & M’s - You are a very fun loving person who likes to laugh. You are fun to be with. People like to hang out with you because you are a very warm-hearted person.
As I approached the classroom Wednesday afternoon, Mrs. Rodriguez held a “box of chocolates” which was actually a square. I inserted my hand into the box, and out came an M&M bag. In the description given, an M&M describes a person who is very warm-hearted, and no matter what is easy going. I believe that this describes me because no matter what is going on in my life, or day, I never let any obstacle blur my future or the love I illustrate to them. Inclusively I believe that benevolent people get a lot out of life. To me, god will always reward you when you do something good and honest, even if the person you are doing a favor for doesn’t. That’s why I chose to live life like this. Holding on to grudges, or being mad is a waste of emotion, so I am better of letting it go and enjoying every moment that life has to offer me. A perfect example would be a foster child. Some foster children are very ungrateful with their foster parents because of their rough past and don’t accept them. As time goes on the kindness and love of the parents breaks through that hard exterior and they accomplish a level of happiness that’s unexplainable. This brings me to the point that the description given in the text matches me perfectly, like a humble friend once said, “Love all or perish.”

I believe that this quote is ludicrous in many ways and I go by an opposite quote that says you earn everything that happens in your life. I don't believe the quote because personally I don't believe in faith to much I make my faith, and what I mean by that is I know that if I work hard in my life that I will be rewarded. I think the quote life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what your gonna get has a negative connotation attached to it and I believe this quote gives you an excuse. I want to be prepared in life and I don't need excuses because I am accountable for everything that happens to me in life and I'm far from scared to say that. If you live your life by this quote and use it as something to follow your life by than you're in for a struggle filled and unpredictable life whose future is far from certain and confident. My future is bright and life won't throw a box of chocolates on it because I know my path and its towards success, which is the goal that I will achieve. I don't believe in this quote because I have the confidence and the arrogance to say it that I will be successful, sure the path is unpredictable but this quote does not apply to me because at the end of all my potential paths is the same and that's a college degree, a great job, and a family that includes a tall hairy man with a bunch of kids, which equals success to me. On the back of every single box of chocolates you see the ingredients in the box so you do know what the box holds and you know what life holds if you work hard enough.
CANDY BAR
I feel that the description provided for the Twix candy bar fits my personality to a tee. Its almost as if I should have been born as a Twix candy bar. The first part of the description is being sexy and I know I am because my boyfriend reminds me all the time. The second part is generosity which is very important to me and I always lend a hand. I think I've attained this quality because When I'm down I always think there is someone in a worse position and I need to be grateful for what I have and help others without hesitation. My energy is what keeps me going and I do everything I can from sports to clubs to make my future better. The opposite sex loves me and it sounds arrogant but my boyfriend is crazy for me but he is the only one that's on the opposite sex who gets my love back.

"life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get" just like 80 million other quotes out there, this one relates to my life. you never really do know what you're gonna get out of life, one day you might plan a trip somewhere and the next day you end up changign your mind because of whatever reason. this quote relates to me because i remember one time me and my friend Elio, had been planning to go to rapids for about a year and everythings all good so far.... and then the day comes! boom! KKRRR!!! it starts thundering and raining and all that good stuff the park closes down :) (maniacal smile) this ust goes to show how life has random ups and downs and how it has little things that could impact something severely i.e, my story!!
The chocolate bar i picked was twix! the description is rediculously good at describing me, it is as if i was destined to eat the candy bar! lets see.... well to start off, Sexy, you answer that! Always ready to give, yes!!! i always try hard and give it my all no matter what challenges im confronted with! Energetic, put it this way, im never tired after football games or practice, im always ready for more!!! (dont tell coach please because he might make all of us work harder!!) Get the most out of life, not really im lazy and i hate doing- just kidding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! like i said earlier im always up for anything and always give it my all!!! life is like a caja of chocolates, you never know what you'll get! just live it to the fullest and work with what you've got and you'll make it through safe and sound :) oh and the last one, the opposite sex is always attracted to me..... yes very true but in one occasion this was not, im not homophobic but yea not cool..... no need for an explanation you already know what im talking about.... err hem, anyways!! thats me!! TWIX!!! "its all in the mix" (twix slogan)

I do agree with the quote life is like a box of chocolates. In life we don't know what is going to be the exact outcome of everything. We might believe for it to be one thing and then it might turn out to be the opposite. We might have a certain plan set up for our future but it can always change unexpectedly and we have to be aware of that. An example can be my coming to this new school. I didn't think much of coming here i thought i would stay with my old friends and everything would stay the same, but instead everything changed and i ended up getting new friends and even starting a relationship something i was never expecting to happen.
The chocolate i chose that day from the candy bowl were M&M's. I kind of agree with what the description says since it states that i love to laugh, which is true. I enjoy laughing at almost anything and can laugh for hours non stop. I am also very fun to be with since i can make my friends laugh a lot. I can be very warm hearted but only to those close friends of mine and will enjoy helping them out but at times i can be very cold hearted with others.

Great job, guys! I printed them out, grade them and return them to you in class.
SMILE!
The Candy i had was twix it hikit really describes me i am a very energetic in life i like to hav things done the right way!!
The character i would pick from New Moon is Edward to me he likes Snickers hes a fun person to be with but maybe not all the time hes always talling people things and being a joker with the things he says!!
Well, for this assignment I was absent, but if I were present to class the candy I were to pick is the one I love and always buy once I’m at the store, 3 musketeers. I think if we were on a plane we would be very parallel to each other. Not only am I adventurous, but I love new ideas, and sometimes I love coming up with new ideas, and when my temper flares up, I definitely whip out my saber.
If Jacob Black went trick or treating the candy I would give him would be Twix, M&M’s, and crunch. For example he’s sexy, energetic, always ready to give, a very fun loving person who likes to laugh, fun to be with, reliable, resilient, and preserve under stressful situations, but you can have fun at the same time. No more nonsense! The candy Jacob would choose based on his personality would most definitely be Milky Way.
Being adventurous and loving new ideas are pretty much the exact same thing for me. If only they were put together. For me it’s like being unique, or one of a kind, because I think of it as making new ideas to be adventurous or while being adventurous-either way its still fun- because that’s were the uniqueness comes in. For example, a group of my friends and I would go on an exhibition-I know sounds boring right- for a project/documentary. While being on the magnificent trip you make of the time that you got. Therefore we would be discovering/experiencing new things while doing our work and also going to particular places to discover new concepts and doing as much exploring as possible.
Being romantic, warm, loving, and caring about other people is not that easy. As to Jacob Black that is so easy and suits him it’s like passing a 2nd grade test while being in 10th grade. The one thing that caught my attention when he was being romantic, loving and, caring had to be during Valentines Day on page 202. “Happy Valentine’s Day,” Jacob said, smiling, but ducking his head as he greeted me. He held out a small, pink box, balancing it on his palm. Conversation hearts. Truly Jacob is gifted he is to unique. He isn’t just warm from his heart by doing really romantic stuff, but he’s literally warm by his body temperature. The exact descriptions from Bella were explained with detail on page 215 and 216. We rolled down the windows, letting the icy night air blow through the car, hoping it would help Mike. I curled my arms around my legs to keep warm. “Cold again?” Jacob asked, putting his arm around me before I could answer. “You’re not?” He shook his head. “You must have a fever or something.” I grumbled. It was freezing. I touched my fingers to his forehead, and his head was hot. “Whoa, Jake-you’re burning up!” “I feel fine.” He shrugged. “Fit as a fiddle.” I frowned and touched his head again. His skin blazed under my fingers. “Your hands are like ice,” he complained. “Maybe it’s me,” I allowed.
