= **A //Day In The Life Of// Sir, Ryan Monroe** =

**__Morning-__**
The mornings come early for Sir Ryan, I am always up by 5 am, I like to get a good start on my day. When I first wake I look to the sky and see what kind of day we are going to have. I would hope it to be a nice day. After I bathe and dry myself, I walk over to my armor stand to begin putting my on my armor. A knight always wears his armor in public to distuinguish him from common folk, as a Knight is the commander of a brigade of soldiers for the King. When Sir Ryan is all fed and dressed and ready to go to see his blacksmith, Adam Smith, it is close to 8:00am. Sir Ryan leaves his Quarters and arrives at Adam Smiths shop at 8: 30am. I sit and talk to Adam about some armor I am letting him service for me and prepare it the way I like it. He is the best around. I only wish the King would pay for all the men to have their armor serviced and maintained by the best. As a wealthy knight, I can afford that luxury. After talking to Adam for some time, I see it was getting late. It is 9:15am and I still need to address the men and prepare them for the days dutied. I thank Adam and said maybe I'll see him late. I managed to get to my troops by 10am. They are already standing in line waiting for my word from the King. As I am commander of the 5th Brigade of our King Royal Army, it is my responsability to instruct and command over 15,000 men to fight for their King. When I am finished explaining to the men that we are going to defend the left flank of the corridor like we did last night, we prepare for our post after lunch. It is just that time, 12 noon.

__**Afternoon-**__
When I leave the men to go eat lunch, it is 12:00 noon. I proceeded to the officers quarters to get my lunch as I do everyday, That's where the other knights and myself get to have some down time and talk about ourselves and famlies. I am always the one telling them about my wife and two daughters. I am a warrior for the King and a loving husband and father to my family. After we finished talking and eating it is 1pm, and we are all headed to the briefing of the knights that are coming off their watches from the last shift. This is where we find out what to expect from the reports of the other knights coming back into the castle. Once we are informed of how things are going it is 3pm. I go back to tell the men that we are actually having the day off. The news from the other knights is good. The enemy is starting to pull back and we don't need to take our shift tonight. It is 3:45pm when I start back to Adam Smiths, Blacksmiths shop. When we start talking I realized that he could take an extra day on my armor, since I wouldn't need it after all. I guess Adam and I are a little more close than most of his customers. We have known each other for years and have developed a very strong friendship. After Adam and I stop talking it is 4:30pm. I need to meet my friend, Chucky. A. Meat by 5pm for a little jousting. That only gives me 30 minutes to get there. I am glad I have one of the fastest horses in the land. That will give me plenty of time to get there.

**__Evening-__**
I made it to my jousting contest with Chucky .A. Meat at 5pm. The match starts off pretty bad. Chucky has me down two matches to zero. I was starting to get frustrated but I knew if I just wait for the right opportunity, I could make my way back into this match. I managed to win the contest with Chuck by 1 match. It is now 6:30pm. I start back on my long journey home to my family. When I arrive home it is 8pm. I greet my wife and children with surprise because my daughters are usually sleeping when I get home. So it is nice for all of us to be together for a little while before bed. After some time with the family it is 9:30pm and time for this knight to get some sleep, because you never know what to expect in the day and the life of Sir Ryan Monroe. He could be in for a very long day. But tonight he will get a goods nights sleep and get up early in the morning and make it all happen again.

My knight has a lot of advantages. First, My knight has great weapon skill's. Second, He's better than most on horse back. Also I can join jousting tournaments and win money or coins. My knight has great skills in any type of fighting. He's an expert when it comes to battle.My knight would be a lot stronger than a king. knights would start at the age of 7 to begin their knighthood. They would usually stop around the age of 21. Thats 14 years of training,And finally, My Knight has only himself and his fellow Knights to look out for.

**Disadvantages of a knight**
My knight also has some disadvantatages. One is that my knight can be called to duty if any body tries to harm the castle. Two ,My knight can be killed at any time in battle. Also he isn't guarenteed to see his family if he has to go into battle. My knight is also controled by the king. So if my knight messes up he can be killed.

**Advantages of a king**
A king has a lot of advantages. First, He controles everyone and every thing. Second, He has the best clothes. He also eats the best food. He would eat white bread which was very rare. everybody else would usually eat something called black bread. The king would get anything he wanted whenever he wanted. Also he commands the whole military ,and he can choose who he wants to attack.

**Disadvantages of a king**
A king also has some disadvantages. The king has to control everyone in the castle. Thats a lot of people. also if he makes a bad decision all his people could turn on him,That's what happened to kings back in the day. He also has to make sure that his army is strong ,So if anybody tries to attack. His army can be prepared to defend the king and his castle. He also has to make sure all of his soldiers are healthy and able to fight.The king has a very hard job. I think the kings Job was probably the most difficult position to hold back in those days.



I wish I were a king because I would have all the power. I would also have a lot of responsibility like commanding everyone ,But I could be entertained whenever I wanted. I would eat the best food. I would be in charge of everyone.And that would be pretty cool. But it would also be cool to be a knight too, because I know I'm helping the Kingdom by defending it from enemies or anyone attacking or trying to harm the kingdom. I think its kind of crazy that the King controls everything and everybody that works for him, and they get practically nothing in return. I would try to be a fair king but I wouldn't make any promises that I could'nt keep. I probably would be treated the best out of everyone. The only problem would be if I made a bad decision then everyone wouldn't like me. I would pay everyone in food, protection and land.

**My Modern Day Knight**
My knight has many qualities. He's strong, he's fast, he's smart in strategizing battle plans. But sometimes he gets a little tired and isn't allways on his best look out. But he's one of the greatest fighters and horse riders. Fighting and strategizing battle plans is my knight best skills. My knight commands all the knights so he has a lot of friends. He loves to practice and spend time with his family.

**My Modern Day Knight Is __Brian Westbrook__**
My moden day knight is Brian Westbrook because he has most of the same qualities that my knights has. He's strong, he's fast, and he can figure out how to run through the holes without getting tackled. There the same because they were both leaders on there team. They were both the best,the fastest,the strongest and the smartest. They are both the same because they practically do the same things.

**Comparing __Brian Westbrook__ and __Sir Ryan Monroe__**
Brian Westbrook and sir Ryan Monroe are both very similiar because there both fast,both strong and are both smart. I think sir Ryan monroe is better because hes faster, he stronger and hes smarter. also what would you do if there wasnt any knights to fight. the enimies would attack the castle. If you dont have a running back you always have a back up. sir Ryan Monroe also trains every day compared to Brian Westbrook that practices about 5 days a week. Thats 2 days that he does'nt practice. Tats why I think my knights better than Brian Westbrook. Brian Westbrook is still a great player but my knight is better.
