Morning
5:30 I wake up, get dressed into woolen clothing and linen undergarments and go to mass to make and hear prayers. 6:00 Then I go to the Great Hall of the castle and eat bread along with meat and vegetables for breakfast with Bo The Brave, I could not have meat on holy days, also I could only talk very little during meals. 7:00 Go back to my room put on my armor and go to down to the grass battlefield to play gameball with Bo The Brave, Sir Finley, King Paul Rabil The Mighty, Sir John The Great and Sir Beau The Brave which is a game like football to practice speed. 8:00 I then joust with every knight in the kingdom on the grass field and win to practice sword fighting skills. 10:00 I would then go on a date with the Princess in the Great Hall and have a small snack. 10:45 I would stay at the the Great Hall, say mid-morning prayers and have meat, vegetables and bread for dinner. 11:45 I would then go to the grass battlefield to practice protecting the king by having three knights run at the king at a time and I cannot let them get to the King so the king knows I will always defend him.

In this picture there are two knights jousting each other and the knight wearing black and yellow had his shield broken by the knight in red and yellow.

Afternoon
1:00 I wrestle with Sir Bo The Brave in the castle to practice battle skills without a sword. 2:00 Then I would fight with Sir John The Great in the castle to practice battle skills with my bare hands. 3:00 I go hunting with the Lord to practice sneak attacks in case of battle. 3:30 Then I go riding on my horse to practice how I would fight while focusing on leading the horse around the grass battlefield. Then I would hawk and inspect the castle to look for any intruders trying to steal any gold or silver from the castle. 4:30 I then sword fight with Prince Henry of Bristol so I know that I don't have to back down even when I'm fighting a nobleman. 5:30 I then get changed out of my armor into my woolen clothing and linen undergarments and go down to The Great Hall and sit next to Princess Decker and eat bread, vegetables and meat for supper.

In this picture there is a medieval feast, which shows various types of medieval foods people would eat at that time.

Evening
6:30 I go to the main courtyard and watch Wellid Forlogs The Jester, acrobats, stilt walkers, magicians, fire performers and musicians. I would watch the jester for comedy, the acrobats to see amazing stunts, the fire performers to see them eat a baton on fire and also watch them eat a stick on fire and then blow the fire back out their mouth. This all amazing but there is more, the magicians for tricks that would blow your mind, the musicians to hear great music, and the stilt walkers to see people with great balance and dancers that show great moves. I especially like the stilt walkers and the dancers because they do things I can learn to have more balance. 10:00 After all that I go upstairs to my room in the castle get changed into my royal pajamas and say my bedtime prayers so I can have a great day like this one the next day. In this picture there is a medieval jester making a joke.

The advantages of being a knight are you get to fight in battle and get to play lots of sports with the other knights in the castle. It is also great to be a knight because you are considered a person high up in the classes. Since I'm a knight I get to play games such as gameball, I get to joust, go horse riding, practice my battle skills wrestle, and fight. A knights rights are they are allowed to hunt or get their own food. Another right is that you can customize your armor, shield, and sword with your family crest. I am also allowed to accept shelter and food from the Lords.

The disadvantages of being a knight are you are always fighting in wars and you could get killed. Another way being a knight is bad is because you have to fight all day and follow The Code of Chivalry, so you are not allowed to talk very much and you always have to be careful of what you do because you could be killed because you do something wrong. My responsibilities as a knight are to follow The Code of Chivalry, give loyalty to the king and to the lords, to sometimes entertain the king, and go to church a lot. One of my most important jobs is to protect the king.

The advantages of being a king are you get to lead the castle and the whole land and you get to eat as much as you want. Another advantage of being a king is if you do something you can't get in trouble because you make the rules. It is also great to be king because you have everybody protecting you and you just sit and watch. The rights of a king are that you are given loyalty from the knights and the lords, protection from the knights and the lords, tax money from the peasants, pastries from the baker, and shoes from the cobbler.

Some disadvantages of being a king are you can't really play any sports like the knights get to so can't have a lot of fun. Another disadvantage of being a king is you have to sit in the castle all day and plan warfare strategy and make decisions, the only entertaining part of being a king is when you get to watch the jester where he mostly tries to make you laugh. The responsibilities of a king are you have to give the lords and knights fief and peasants, and the peasants shelter.

=My Modern Day Knight is LeBron James.=

=Sir Jared The Great= had many great qualities, he was strong, brave, powerful, played sports very confidently and was always loyal to the king. He also worked on his battle skills and jousting and everything he needed to do well to win wars for the castle, and mostly the king. He always was determined to help the king and he always followed the Code of Chivalry.

=#6 LeBron James= is a professional NBA basketball player who plays for the Miami Heat. He is the best basketball player in the world. LeBron is also 6'8", 260 lbs, is a Small Forward, and this is his 9th year in the NBA.He averages 27.7 points, 8.1 rebounds, and 6.8 assists a game which is almost a triple double.Sir Jared The Great and LeBron James are alike because LeBron is one of the strongest basketball players in the world and Sir Jared The Great is also very strong. Sir Jared The Great is powerful when he plays sports like gameball and wrestling, LeBron when he goes to the rim he is powerful and runs through the lane like a freight train just like Sir Jared The Great. LeBron is determined to win the championship and Sir Jared The Great was always determined to help the king. Sir Jared The Great and LeBron are also alike because they both are very confident.

Sir Jared The Great is better than LeBron James because he has to practice battle skills and fighting for a very long time every day, LeBron only has practice about four times a week and he only works out about three times a week. Another reason Sir Jared The Great is better is because he has to work hard every day to not get hung and LeBron just gets to play for fun and money. Sir Jared The Great also has to follow Chivalry which is a set of rules all knights have to follow, and LeBron only has to follow plays for his team.
