Reincarnation

In Social Studies, we have been talking about other world religions (Buddhism and Hinduism). Since they believe in reincarnation (and we obviously do not), I want you to put yourselves in their shoes. If you were to be reincarnated tomorrow, what would you come back as? You could be a human, animal, or a plant. You could be from the United States, Germany, Honduras, China, Russia, Kenya, or wherever you want. You could be of any nationality you choose. Just pick something to come back as and tell us why.

If I could be reincarnated, I would want to come back as a mouse. I would do this because then it would make my world a whole lot bigger. Also I would want to look at the world from a different angle. If this happened, the people would be a lot bigger and I would get a lot of exercise from running from the neighbors cat. Everything in the world would be a lot bigger and it would be hard to survive. Although this sounds interesting, I wouldn’t do this because I like my life the way it is.

I would love to become a fish and explore the ocean and discover hidden treasures. I would be a coy who could talk to people and give fortunes. I could teach the young lessons. And give the old advice. I could transform into a human and teach. When people try to catch me I could easily scare them away. My owner could be a Tibetan monk. I could read minds and help everyone in the world discover peace. I could meditate and move to places in my head. I would the most greatest fish in the world. I Would love it.

If I was going to be reiencarnated I would come back as a cute little duck because you can swim when its summer and then during the winter you can fly away to a warmer place so you pretty much don't have a winter. During the summer I would live in Wisconsin. I would also have a career as the Aflac duck. In the winter I would go to Mexico, Jamaca and Hawii. I would stay close to family and visit them often and probably see my cousin's in Minnisota. But I would probably rather be a person.

The End

P.S Miss Miller i'm just going to be Hannah for my Name/URL.

When I am reincarnated, I would want to be a dog. I will live in USA, my name would be Retrofire, and I would be a golden retriever. I would have an owner that is kind, gives me many treats, and pets me a lot. It would be nice if he gave me a walk but I can walk around the house. The reason I came back is that even though I love life I have desire. I want to get rid of my desires so I can rest in peace and am not bothered by children asking about the world.

If I was reincarnated I would probably want to be King of the Forest! I think that it would be fun to roar loud and see all of the other animals. I could be friends with a monkey or a frog, and yet you wouldn’t be afraid of anything. (Unless you are the cowardly lion in the Wizard of Oz!) I would also like to roam free, not to be kept up in a zoo. You could probably locate me in a place so called Zimbabwe in Africa. When I later on die I would like to hopefully be reincarnated again until I reach my destiny.

If I could be reincarnated I would want to be a movie star. My movie would be called Slednecks. I would ride snowmobiles and do freestyle tricks like flips and stuff. I would have all kinds of buddies who would do it with me. I would have alot of money to buy new snowmobiles like 2010s. I would live in Colorado where it is almost always snowing. The snow would be very deep and there would be cliffs and all kinds of things to jump off of. When you land it wouldn't hurt because it is so deep. It would be like landing on cotton. I would be the worlds best Sledneck, named Tyler Pipkorn.

If I was reincarnated, I would want to be reincarnated as a Bald Eagle. I would love to go up really high and look down at everything going on below me. Another reason I would want to be a bald eagle is because I would be the United States of America's national bird. No one could ever harm me because I am an endangered and protected species. I would live way up North where there is peace and quiet. I would like being one of the countries symbols and would like being on the quarters where people would respect me.

If I could be reincarnated I would like to be a cuddly, fluffy, orange kitty cat. I could take naps in the sun all day and play with frisky cat toys filled with cat nip. It would be fun to see the cats eyed view of the world. I could join in with my cat’s chasses and play time, pouncing on their tails and batting at their whiskers. I would also be able to see my dogs taller then me. One thing I could do without would be the food (yuck) and the possibility of being trapped in small places. Another up side would be that I would always land on my feet if I fell.

If I got reincarnated I would hopefully become a giraffe. I think it would be cool to be so tall. Towering above the rest of the animals and I would see the world from a different view. I would be looking down at the tops of everyone’s head. I would be wondering in the zoo. Everyone would come and see me. They would really love my long tongue. I would also do tricks for them. Like play dead. I would get really close to the small children so they can really see how cool of an animal I am. Also, I would have people there to take care of me 24/7.

I would come back as a hockey mascot (S.J. Sharkie). Why would I come back as Sharkie? This way I would get to see a good hockey game, suit-up with my favorite team, be a person and an animal, and skate! This would be fun because I would also get to throw things in the audience! I would really enjoy it because I would have my own fan club! I also would get to do parties and charity events. I also think that it would be fun living a double life. I could be one person around my buddies and a totally cool mascot on the ice. So if I ever got reincarnated (which wouldn’t happen) I would be San Jose Sharkie.

If I would come back as reincarnationed I would come back as a pug the dog because there are so cut. You wouldn’t have to worry about homework or anything like that all you have to do is sit in the sun and be relaxed. Get to go on walks and get lots of treats. Be a good cut fluffy and soft dog and have a smushed face. I would be a tan dog not a black dog and have long and really curly tail. I would get to play all the time and get petted all the time. Get cleaned and do nothing but just be cut dog.

If I was going to be reincarnated I would be a…. well technically it matters if it could be extinct or if it has to be real. If it has to be real I would be a platypus. Then I could be a secret agent like Perry the platypus tm. I could save the world!!!! If it was extinct I would be a Triceratops. I could be lay back and munch on grass all day long. The only problem is if a T-rex tries to eat me but, I would have my horns to protect me. It’s a hard decision and I’m glad this doesn’t happen. Yay!

If I was reincarnated I probably would want to be a dog because everyone would come up and pet you all the time. I always wonder what it would be like for a dog! If they can understand us or if when they bark it means something, and what does dog food tasted like. But what I think would be the best thing about being a dog would be all the attention. Especially when they are puppies. At least my dog got lots of attention when he was a puppy. That’s why I think it would be cool to be a dog!

If I were reincarnated I would want to be a fly of the USA. I think that it would be cool to go into people’s houses and explore them. The world and people would seem gigantic, I hope that I don’t get lost and I would see a lot of them because of my compound eyes. It would be hard to survive because I would have to dodge people’s fly swatters and spider’s webs. It would also be fun to annoy people with my buzzing and spy on them by flying across the room. I would spend a lot of time in the garbage eating

If I was reincarnated I would be my sister’s cat Ben. The reason I would want to be him is because then I would still get to be with my family and They wouldn’t even know it. I would rather be him than my sister’s other cat Mindy mainly because then I would still be a male. Ben is really well taken care of and spoiled so that would be cool too. Plus cats get to do whatever they want whenever they want. They don’t have a bed time, they don’t have to do homework, and can play all day long if they wanted. Ben is not very snuggly so I won’t have to be smothered and he has built in entertainment: Mindy the thief. He also gets to beat up girls and no one yells at him. And last but not least I could puke all over my sister’s room and laugh on the inside. Although my sister sometimes dresses Ben up so I guess she’d be getting back at me for the puking. Mainly I would just be a good life being a spoiled cat.

If reincarnation was real I would want to be a small dog like a chihuahua. I would live in the U.S.A because it would be familiar and I would know English. I could be really smart and freak out my owners. I would be babied. I would be so cute I would get every thing I wanted. I would not want to be a plant because it would be really boring. I really love rats but I would not want to be one because they only live about 3 years. I would not want to be a wild animal because it would be hard to survive.

If I got reincarnated I would probably want to come back as a movie star or an actress on Broadway. I would want to be this for many reasons. One reason is because that is my dream to become an actress and another reason is that it would be soooo much fun! It would be fun to meet my fans especially the eleven year old girls because I would know what it’s like to be them. It would be really weird but fun to experience being adored and looked up to by thousands of people that I don’t even know. But in then again there would be a major downside to being an actress- the paparazzi. It would get REALLY annoying having people follow you everywhere! But over all I think I would have fun being reincarnated as an actress.

this is apart of my blog that i forgot to wright!
Another reason that i would want to be a human (actress) and not an animal or plant is because people are at the top of the food chain and that way i wouldn't have to worry about being eatin.

And also some chinese are funky and I absoulutley love their eyes.

If I was reincarnated I would come back as a cheetah and I would live on the plains of South Africa and I would have a clan and it would be made up of three males and there names would be: Blackscar, Bushclaw and Forepaw.
There would be one female and that would be me.

We would hunt almost every day and only sleep at night.
One of our obstacles in the wild would be habitat loss.
I would picture in my head what we would eat, and if we had to move I would be on the look out for lions and humans.
And that is what I would be if I got reincarnated.

If I was reincarnated I would become a Budweiser Clydesdale. I would be very helpful to people by giving them rides in my wagon. A really good thing would be that I would get a nice stable. I would also get to be on TV. Another thing is that I would get to be in parades. There would not be really any bad parts of being a Clydesdale. A cool thing is that I would be one of the biggest horses. If I was not able to be a Clydesdale I would want to be a Black Bear. I would want to be a Black Bear because I could attack hunters.

If I was to be reincarnated I would like to come back as a house cat. I most definately would not want to be an outdoor cat. House cats have the advantages of having a loving family to take care of them and a house to live in. House cats don't have to find their own food and have shelter from bad weather. Most people think kittens are very cute. Kittens are very playful too. As you get older and become a cat, you can sleep during the day on your owner's bed or curl up in the sun on the back of the couch. It would also be fun to be able to jump like cats do and always land on your feet if you fall. I could play and sleep during the day and would have no school or work to worry about.

If I were reincarnated I would want to be an eagle in America. I would like to look at every detail of our amazing country. I would maybe even explore the Canadian wilderness. There would be so many things to look at! It would be so fun to glide 100 feet in the air and then dive bomb to catch a fish at 100mph! I would also live a happy life since it is illegal to shoot or kill eagles in America! I maybe would even get a glimpse of Bigfoot (if he’s real). I think it would be awesome to be reincarnated as an Eagle!

If I were being reincarnated and I was going to be born tomorrow, I would be a human born in China. I would be the only American in China and I would be famous. I would be one of the four people to have a car. I would have a huge house and hundreds of animals. I would have lots of friends and I would have a really nice school! I would donate money for the sick people and I would be really nice to my family and friends.

I would want to be reincarnated into a dog in the U.S.A. In a loving family with a 10 year old boy that likes to hunt that lives on a farm. I could sleep when I wanted to and get fed free and be in a warm house. So I could hunt and I could just relax. I would love my owner. I love to play and run and watch TV. I would protect the farm from danger. Would be a good tracker. I would be very Mello. I could be a hero to the Barn or for emergencies. That’s what I would want to be reincarnated into.
