As I awake with the sun rays shining down upon my face I can feel that I am finally at peace with myself once again back into the great place that you all call a mind but I call it my resting ground where anything that I can think or dream becomes a reality. This is a wonderful place full of wonders that have never been dreamt of. I arise from the cool crystal like sand of the beach that I was resting on with the shade from the leaves of palm trees blocking the sun now but as the breeze blows by giving off this aroma of a cool mourning breeze the leaves of the palm tree would blow alongside the breeze letting the suns rays shine down on my face just for a minute before I raise my hand to guard my eyes from the sudden burst of the warmth from the sun. I have been coming to this place for as long as I can remember and I have giving this place a name that suites its beautiful appearance I call this place Radiant Garden. I only come to this place to relax and be at one with myself when there are times that I can feel so low that nothing will be able to cheer me up. Radiant Garden is my Sanctuary and I only come here when I feel down or something has troubled me and I need to cool my head. It is a place that has a beautiful Garden with many unseen plants and trees that I myself have given names such as the Paopu Tree which blooms the best fruit in the Garden known as a Paopu Fruit it is a bright yellow fruit and it is shaped like a star when you take that first bite into it you get the taste of Bananas and Strawberries mixed into one fruit that is rich and juicy. Then after the Garden there is and old abandoned Mansion that I have entered many times before but there is no sign of anyone living there before. The Mansion is a light white that looks like it was coated with a light blue up close and there is a balcony at the top and that is where I go most often to just look at the World around me.
Once you are atop that balcony you can see everything the beach from the far east that has sand that looks just like crystal itself that has a bright shade of pink and some sand that you can find that is a light blue making it seem as if the sand was cotton candy waiting to be picked right from the ground. Then there is this Carven that is found once you head south of the beach and come across a waterfall the Cavern is hidden behind it. I have also given this place a name it is called Cavern of Remembrance. It is small place that has a few boulders lying around and drawings on the wall that I did myself just things I was thinking of at the moment like Music Notes and such. This place also seems to have a dark side to it because there is a Door that is locked that will not open no matter how hard I try. I have yet to see anyone else in this place besides me and sometimes it get lonely here but I can manage with all the peace that is here. Radiant Garden is a wonderful place to me that I wish was a place that was in the Real World I live in but there is no place that can compare to Radiant Garden sometimes I wish other could just see how this place is an witness the peace you can find in here unlike the constant fighting you here out in the Real World. If I was to ever lose this place then I would be sadden deeply from the lose of such a beautiful and unique place that I have grown to love as if it were my home.

Huck Finn Response (Ch. 13 - Ch. 17)
Widow Douglas influences Huck directly to better himself as a person and show him the difference between right and wrong. For example on how she teaches him about the Bible and Heaven and also has him going to school. Widow Douglas also influences Huck indirectly on how to be more helpful to others and not expect to get anything in return. On when he wanted to help the two thieves from getting caught even though they were bad.
Tom Sawyer influences Huck directly to better understand lies and tricks. Also learning how to use them for his own personal gain. For example on how Tom lied to them saying that there was going to be a band of thieves in the Cave with treasure. Tom also influences Huck indirectly to be able to think of good plans and use his lies to himself in the long run. For example when he faked his death he wish that Tom was there to see that he did it all by himself.
Pap influences Huck directly on how to live without the better things in life and how to fend for himself out in the world. For example when Pap kidnapped Huck and they were alone int he woods he would have Huck go find food. Pap influenced Huck indirectly on how to use others for his personal gain and how to live out int he world. For example he was knew how to catch fish when him and Jim would get food for supper.

Huck Finn Response (CH.1-CH.12)
Huck Finn is a teenage boy. Huck was living with the Widow Douglas because his father has not been seen for a year or more. His Father is a drunk, anytime he has money he spends it on alcohol. Then Huck's Pap is in Huck's room one day when he comes home. And he wants Huck to stop going to school, and stop reading books. And his Pap wants him to give him the money that Judge Thatcher's is keeping for him. Huck does not want to give the money to his father because he will spend it all. Huck's father kidnaps him and they go to a cabin. Then Huck escapes and makes it look like he was killed. Jim is Miss. Watson's slave. Then Jim runs away because he heard that Miss. Watson was going to sell him. So they find each other. Huck dressed up as a girl and went up to this lady's house and pretended to be Sarah Williams. He just wanted to know what was going on in town.
I mean I like the book but it doesn't catch my interest as much as the other type of books I prefer but it is not all that bad off a book. It is a little similar to Of Mice And Men because both Lennie and Huck decide to run away.
