My idea of making a monument began as a way so people can respect the hero.The monument was going to be on the St. George in Hawaii.The hero was a boy named Bobby.He risk his life to save his grandma from a fast car.The driver was running from the police, so the driver was driving super fast.The elder lady’s name was Mrs.Ryder.She didn’t see the car since she was blind and had no one to help her.
“Watch out!” screamed Bobby
But Mrs.Ryder didn’t hear.Then, he had to push him out of the way.He now at the hospital with his grandma.She alway come to visit and thanks him everyday, so I want to show everyone how great he is.Then I got other workers to help and we all started in fall.
First,I started a fundraiser.After a few weeks, a lot of people donate.We have over $100,000,000!Then,I drew and model,a 2D and 3D,and show the idea to the others who was also helping to build the monument.Next,We measure where everything was going to be like the eyes,mouth,nose,and hair.Finally,We got the tools for the build.Such as a jackhammers,dynamite,jet torches,and laser beams.Now, we had to build the monument.
We start with the head.The head was 50 feet for the length and 25 feet for the width.Some was working on the hair,and others was working on the eye,nose,mouth.I was making sure that everything was right and also help the one a confused on what to do.Then, we use the jet torches to polish the build.When we were polish, there’s was a lot was disagreements about making it perfect or not.
“Stop!I haven’t finish!” shouted one of the workers with a brown vest.
“Well hurry up!The boss say we need to finish!It been 2 years and told everyone it will be finished by next month.” responded another one.
“But, I need to make this perfect.” added the first one.
“What all the noise?” I asked.
Both workers had told me what happened.I had to choose to make it perfect or not.Both had gave me a good reason to do it or not.One told me if we didn’t make it perfect.Then, we could finish it early and have a break.Then the other told me that we should make it perfect because everyone and the little boy will be wowed by the monument.
I explained “If we make it perfect.Then,It won’t be finish by next month.Everyone was coming and I didn’t want make them sad.”Then one of the other worker who had hear us talking came and had a better idea.
“Why don’t we get more worker to finish the monument more earlier and better.” The worker added.We all agreed.While they started to make the monument more perfect, I had hired more workers.We used the jackhammer to drill some part and dynamite to blast away the big parts.Afterwards, we used jet torches to soothe the monument.After 2 years, the one million dollar project was done.
Today, nearly four million people come to Hawaii to visit the statue every year.It been in newspaper,books,and in students’ homework.Even the Bobby and his Mrs.Ryder visit it every year.People are proud of the hero and the monument.
