“Every minute you spend with someone gives them a part of your life and takes part of theirs.” Allie Condie says this in her book Matched. The character Ky states this.

The book matched is set in the future and is science fiction book. The conflict in the story is that each year they have Matched banquet it’s for people of age to go and get there husband or will be husbands that society picks out, but the main charter gets matched with 2 people. One of who has never been consider a equal because of a act of rebelling that his father did his name was Ky. The society somehow put his name in though and the girl then ended up with two matches by accident.

Ky learned things from his mother and father before they brought him into community about true love, and identity. The quote comes from him saying that when when you spend time with someone it give them part of your life since they spend it with and learn about you. Ky was so carful not to give the girl everything because then she would have part of his life, and would be able to hurt home if she wanted.

I like this quote because it’s short but powerful. It shows how important spending time with someone is and in a way you are giving them part of your life.

Lady bird Lake (Town Lake)

Not a cloud in the sky only the bright sun. Lady bird lake is packed with lots of people out to enjoy a beautiful day. Exercising at the lake is a great way to spend a nice day in Austin.

Town lake is a pretty community trail around a lake in the middle of Austin. On a hot sunny day, it look like the whole town is down exercising. Riding a bike is one way you can use the trail: families, groups, and individuals all zoom past other on their bikes. Runners and walker all stay to the side talking and training for different things.

There is a lot of side things also that are along the lake one is the Zilker park field you can see lots of people playing volleyball on the sand courts. It a great place to fly kites and throw Frisbees also; almost every time I can see people doing yoga in a small lesson, or if you just want to throw a football, kick a soccer ball, or just read a book on a hammock you can do it all there.

One other thing you can do if that’s not good enough you can hang out on the lake. There is deferent place all over the lake you can rent kayaks, or go paddle boarding. In the summer the lake is very busy with people enjoying their day with friends and family. On the side of the lake you can also feed the turtles and the ducks.

If you like the outdoors then you would love the lake. With it’s many different places to hang out on the lake any one could stay a whole day there. When you want get outside the lake is a very nice place to spend the day.
