Mr. Bean-part 2

ok, so mr. bean's real name clyde apparently, i saw a "lost dog" poster for him halloween so i called up the number that night and gave them their dog back, he belonged to a 5 year old girl, she was so excited to see clyde and get him back, she came running over in her fairy princess balarina costume "CLYDE!" it was pretty cute, not gonna lie, he was a really good dog though, was kinda sad to see him go but i knew the family needed their doggie back

taht weekend kinda sucked in general though, i laid my bird to rest cuz one of my cats had gotten a hold of her and she died 2 days later :( i didn't do anything fun that entire weekend and i got a in an argument with my boyfriend (and he's still a little mad at me and i don't understand why), yea...so that's the other weekend...last weekend was good though :)

genre

http://www.explorewriting.co.uk/InformativeWriting.html
there's a source! tada!

anyways, i'm planning on doing an informative type genre for my...i'm not sure what this is called...assignment 3...that's what i'll go with, anyways i was planning on doing a presentation at a school (via powerpoint) and handing out flyers to the students to give to their parents, in the presentation and the flyer it will have info about 4-H and how to join

a lot of the times it's going to be research results for informative essays or presentations, it's used to convey info to the audience to let them know about the topic, it could also just be an educational thing, like a seminar on how to properly flush a toilet i dunno...it could be on anything is my point, anywho, so long as the info is correct and has data to back it up you can pretty much take it how you want

way to reach out

my community is 4-H, since it's a youth organization i think i would go to schools and do a presentation there, make a powerpoint and some flyers to send home with the kids so that way they can show their parents so the parents know about it, i'll make a cool presentation..with pictures and words! yay! exciting! :P

essay review thingy

about the part with the broader theme, i definitely forgot about connecting it to the rest of the world (obviously), i could probly include some examples of how they impact the world and have branches overseas, i could also include how the kids develop into better people which helps them in their future lives as leaders in their career and getting along with other and working as a team

for having 4-H mention not immediatley i thought it was a little bit confusing, but i thought might be a good technique to draw the reader in cuz they wanted to figure out what i was talking about

and i have no idea what to do for a title....i didn't know what to do for it, and then i forgot about it

Mr. Bean

Mr. Bean is small. He doesn't really say much either, the quite type if you will. He doesn't like being left alone at all, he'll follow you around where ever you go and observe quietly. But then again, Mr. Bean is a dog. My roomie was at her barn one day and saw a small dog and mistook him for one of the many barn cats. When she got closer to him she realized that it wasn't a cat at all, but rather a little old chihuahua. She went around asking the other people and the neighbors if the dog belonged to them. Nobody claimed him. So she brought him home because it was supposed to get down to freezing that night. My boyfriend and I ended up keeping him. He's a god little dog that someone had just abandoned at the barn. You could tell because it was obvious that he'd been wearing a collar by the way his coat on his neck was messed up in a circle all the way around. We've had him for about a week now. He likes to sleep a lot. At night when it's cold he'll hop onto the bed (which is actually a futon) and crawl under the blankets and lay right next to you. He's sleeping by me now actually. He doesn't bark a lot or run around all hyperly. And he gets along with the other dogs and cats which is good. We checked to see if someone had lost a little dog, but no one had. So that's the story of Mr. Bean. Why we chose that name, I'm not really sure, but it seems to fit him well. :)

the interview...dun dun dunnn...

for starters...sorry about not being grammatically correct

the 4-H collegiate group here at VT meets twice a month. A lot of what they do is help out local 4-H groups in the surrounding community of Montgomery County. They help with organization and set up for certain events as well running the events. During the summer, all the 4-H groups in the state of Virginia are able to participate in Congress, which is held here at VT. It is an organization the promotes leadership and working as a community. During the interview, I asked if they knew who the founder of the VT collegiate 4-H group was, but they weren't sure. there are positions of hierarchy within the organization itself that are voted on (president, VP, etc.).
