Prank Call to LSU!

        East  Baton  Rouge  Parish  Police  received  a  call  at  10:32  a.m.  Monday,  September  17th,  2012  saying  that  there  was  a  bomb  on  campus.  The  university  issued  a  campus  alert  informing all  the  teachers  and  students  to  “Please  evacuate  as  calmly  and quickly  as  possible.”  Students  at  Louisiana  State  University  in  Baton  Rouge  had  to  stay  evacuated  from  campus  Monday  for  over  four  hours  after  the  police  received  this  phone  call  claiming  there  was  a  bomb  on  the  university  grounds.  A  state  police  SWAT  team  got  sent  to  the  Louisiana  State  University  to  help  out  with  evacuations  of  all  the  students  and  teachers.  Sgt.  Len  Marie  said  that  if  they  needed  to  they  would  bring  bomb  dogs  to  the  site.  That  obviously  shows  that  this  situation  was  indeed  very  serious.  When  the  call  was  made  there  was  no  specific  buildings  mentioned.  The  last  text  message  from  school  officials asked  the  students  to “Stay  off  campus  unless  directed  to  return,”  and  to check  the  school  website  for  updates.  The  officials  added  that  the  investigation  was  still  ongoing.  
      I  find  this  extremely  suspicious  because  last  Friday,  the University  of  Texas  and  North  Dakota  State  University  both  had  to issue  a  campus-wide  alert  after  threats  that turned  out  to be  completely  phony.  I’m  relating  this  phone  call  to  the other  phone  calls  about  campus  bombings.  I’m  going  to  try  to stay  updated  and  see  if  the  news  says  anything  more  about  other  strange  calls  about  bombings.  What  if  a  real  bombing  does  happen?  Why  would  anybody  make  a  call like  that?  It’s  like  somebody  pulling  a  fire  alarm  in  our  school.  
       This  could  affect  my  future  because  I  am  going  to  be  going  to  college  in  two  years.  What  if  Louisiana  State  University  does  get  bombed?  That  is  the  college  that  I  want  to  go  to.  If  a  bombing  does  happen  that  could  also  cause  even  more issues  in  the United  States.  We  would  probably  go  into  war  and  we  already  have  enough  things  in  the  world  to worry  about.  So  we  can  only  hope  that  this  caller  is  just  insane  or stupid  and  nothing  will actually  happen.

PEE paragraph (WTC)

The reason there are concrete walls with steel reinforcing bars s to make sure that if something bad happens people can be protected. According to the info graphic, they use state of the art concrete used in 1 WTC can withstand almost three times more pressure than the concrete used in most other NYC skyscrapers. Because the buildings got hit by airplanes and collapsed, of course they would build the new one with a stronger structure.

My Reading Bucket List

1. The Cell by Stephen King

This book is about cell phones and how at a certain time everbody with a cell phone is going to die. Since the book is about cell phones and it's written by Stephen King, who is my favorite author, I'll probably enjoy this book greatly. It's also supposed to be a thriller and I love thrillers.

2. Flip by Martyn Bedford

I read a lot of books and I am trying to branch out and read a lot more different things. So the whole plot of this story is about a boy that woke up one morning and he was switched into a completely random body. It seems super cool and intriguing.

3. All These Thing I've Done by Gabrielle Zevin

This is about a girl that is not sure what she's going to do with her life. Since I'm in high school and I am still confused about what I am going to do with my life, I feel like I can connect to this girl. This book might also give me pointers on what I should do.

4. Spellbound by Christopher Pike

This book has a mysterious plot to it. It is about a girl who gets murdered ad her death is extremely strange. Her boyfriend is not entirely truthful about what goes on. Eventually he gets a new girlfriend and she realizes something is going on. Soon she's trying to uncover the mystery and all of his secrets. I want to read this to also find out the secrets.

5. See You Later by Christopher Pike

I absolutely love Christopher Pike. He alwasy has twisted things in his stories. This book is supposed to keep you hanging on every word until the very last page. It is about people coming from the future and helping thier present selves, but the present people have no idea who they are and why these new people are trying to change things in their lives.

6. Hate List by Jennifer Brown

I've always been interested and reading about school shootings. It would be nice to read about how a person handles their boyfriend killing people and how they feel when that happens. I also what to know what they do in the future and how people treat them. Also, I'm in a book club online and the author signed something and sent it to me.

7. Fallen by Lauren Kate

This has things about love and angels in it. The plot is about a girl that has lived many lives and her angel always finds her. The girl doesn't remember her past lives and in the past when she'd find out, she'd die. This time is different though. She doesn't die when she finds out and a lot of things start to happen.

8. Catching Fire by Susan Collins

I loved the first book in this series. I normally always read a whole series if I start it. It is really messed up how people can enjoy watching kids kill other kids. I also want to see if Katniss and Peeta end up together in the end or if they go their separate ways.

9. Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson

This is about a girl that isn't very social and you find out something real bad happened to her. After I read the reviews, you find out that she was raped at a party so she called the cops and everybody hated her. The plot is how she's trying to move on with her life.

10. Misery by Stephen King

I've seen the movie to this and my friend told me the book is even better. It is about how a lady adores this writer and she decides to make him wreck and kidnap him. After she kidnaps him, she takes care of him until he tries to esacpe. After he did that, she broke his ankle. The whole point of this book is how she wants him to write her a story, but all he wants to do is escape.
