I chose a knight because they protect the king. Knights are not in a low class. They go into war. They risk their lives to protect their city.

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I would not have to go into war and risk my life for my manor. Sometimes in war you are treated like royalty, and some times you are not. I would also have more free time to do things like going into town. I could farm every day to make money <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">. <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">I would have to work harder because of my farm. I would have to plant and harvest wheat, vegetable, and fruit like apples, pears, cherries, and blueberries. The town would not be depending on me as much as they would on a knight. <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">That is why I wish I were a serf.

My Modern Day Knight is Ryan Sheckler.

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Sir Don﻿ wanted to be a knight since he was three years old. When Sir Don was 5 years old he went to school. Sir Don won his first jousting tournaments when he was 16. Sir Don was in charge of all the knights. He was a strong leader. He leads the knights into war. He was respected by the whole town. He respected other people and their property. He would help people build a house. Sir Don is a brave, fearless, generous, and honored knight. He goes into war and risks his life for his kingdom. He charges at two enemies and kills them by himself. Sir Don was loved by his whole kingdom and honors him. Sir Don has two brothers his older brother became a knight his younger brother became an archer. Sir Don came from a family that could afford to pay for school.

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Ryan started skateboarding at 18 months old and he started doing tricks at 6 years old. When Ryan was 13 he won his first trophy. Like most other skateboarders Ryan was home schooled until high school. He won a gold medal at the 2003 X Games. He followed a skateboarding career when people wanted to see him skate. Ryan is brave, generous, and fearless skater. Ryan sticks up for kids that get bullied and picks on the bully. Ryan broke his foot in two different spots after he recovered he got back up and tried to do the trick and he succeeded he is fearless. Ryan donates money that he wins from tournaments to charity. People like Ryan because of what he does and because he is nice and generous. He has two brothers. Ryan looked up to his big brother and he followed in his footsteps. Ryan came from a wealthy family.

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Ryan is not as good as Sir Don because Ryan does not have to go into war for money and for his town. He does not have to risk his life for the king. If Ryan does something wrong he can't be executed boss. He does not get to joust for fun. (Jousting is more fun then skateboarding, I think it is.) Ryan is not honored as much as a knight. He doesn't have to work hard to build something because of technology. In medieval times everything was harder because the lack of technology back then.
