LAST POST!!!!!

This year has been amazing. I will miss all the good times I had. As you know I have been keeping up with a blog for almost the past year. This blog has kept all of my opinions on different books I have read, and what their about. I think it was kind of fun keeping up with a blog. It gives you some sort of feel for responsibility. As I reader I think I have learned to develop deeper thought about my books find out some of the things the author may have wanted you to feel or think about while reading the book. Not only did it help me out with complex thinking but it showed me how to set up a nifty blog. I know that to me writing online has a whole different feel to it. When you write online it is exposed to everyone, so you do have to be careful if what you write. Also to me I just feel a bit more professional, and suffisticated, but that's just me. I feel that blogging can be liberating in a lot of ways . You are free to write about what ever it is that your heart desires to whom ever your heart desires. In ways it is limiting though especially when you have someone looking over you so you may not exactly be able to write about everything, I mean everything had limits/ limitations. Personally I do not think that people ate more real online. I do in fact believe that we do create our own online personalities to per tray the best of ourselves. With all that new technology it is much easier to do online than in person, therefor people/we may try. Even though I am a teenager and I might be considered a trader for agreeing. With this statement I do believe it is true.we may abuse the freedom we have with the new and improved social networks. We do say things to people on their that we may not ever say in person. We insult people like there is no tomorrow like we will never found out, and I think it's pathetic. I know I may sound a little mean saying that but it's true if you don't have the guys to say it to the persons face then don't say it at all because if the person your talking about finds out they will more than likely approach you the. What are you just going to deny it. For many of my peers they would do just that deny it. Pathetic, that's the only word I think in my mind describes that action. 
  I can't see myself keeping up a blog now in this stage of my life, not because I didn't enjoy the experience but because I wouldn't really have anything to write/ complain about. Maybe later in my life I might and I dnt think it would really have a real theme but maybe just about my everyday life some problems I might come across or some things I overcame, etc. in general I believe that a blog may be used as a personal journal for people, people who want to share their feelings with others instead of just themselves and the pages of their diary.

The virgin suicides

Before I begin this I have to say I have not yet finished the witch hunt I just took a week off to read my book club book. My book is called the virgin suicides. I choose this book not only because it sounded more interesting then all the other chooses but it was the only book everyone in the group had not heard of, and who wants to have someone telling you all about the book. So this is what we all decided on. Judging by the name I assumed it was about a lot of depressed virgin guys and/ or girls who have decided that they have no hope and the only way to feel better and make their life better is to take it- to commit suicide. So far I have read about Mary's first attempt the paramedics found Mary lying in a bathtub with yellow eyes in concessions and pressing a photo of the Virgin Mary against her chest. My first thought was why. in case you didnt know suicide is a sin. so how are you trying to be with such a pure and christianwhile commuting a sin, wouldn't that be considered disrespectful? Also what was the connection between them was she trying to ask for forgiveness for what she was trying to do. Or for some other reason unknown to me and you.................for now.

Witch Hunt

I have recently began reading a new book called the witch hunt. This book is very detailed documented accounts of the Salem witch trails. For those of you who don't know the Salem witch trails is when 4 girls falsely accused women (that they barely knew or if even that) of being witches. These three girls hand picked random women and went on trail and accused them of hurting them, casting spells on them, etc. in this book it is a little Like a textbook. It includes dates, names, cited info ( in some cases), and something you may not see in any other book of the Salem witch trails- they include their opinion. I they Isolate their opinion in its own paragraph. I think they do that so that they don't make the stories bias by including their opinion in the factual text. So far I have only gotten through part if the first account in the book. In this account Abigail Williams, Elizabeth Hubbard, Ann Putnam jr., and Susanna Sheldon. Everyone should know that when you walk into the court room you must take the oath that " you will tell the truth and nothing but the truth so help me god" and these girls sat there look the judge dead in the eye when he ask them who hurts you three of them replied goodie carrier( the lady on trail) the other girl Susanna decided to take it over board. When the judge asked " who hurts you?" She replied with " goody carrier. She bites me, punches me, and tells me that she will cut my throat, If I did [do] not sign her book." Was it not enough that you were trying to put a woman that you barley knew for a crime she did not commit, but you had to say a statement that would surely scare the whole clary room and defiantly put her in jail. That was even the craziest part of that account the craziest part was when goodie carriers 8 year old daughter was brought to the stand. Most of you may think that her daughter would defend her mother to the death, convince everyone that her mother was innocent but that is far from what actually happened. When her daughter walked to the stand, she( like everyone else) took the oath to tell only the truth. When the judge asked her about her mother she replied and said that she had been converted by her mother. Her mother had lured her onto touching the red book with the white pages. She claimed her mother had appeared to her as a cat, one that could terrify her, one that could tear her into shreds, but one that could also wing her spirit away over the treetops to attack others. Isn't that crazy? The imagination of sine children can be dangerous. Well I would really love to tell you more but I would have to read the rest first.

A child called it

I have just finished reading the book "A child called "IT"" by Dave pelzer. This book is a biography of a little child who has had to deal with his abusive mother, absent father, and careless brothers. His mother used to be caring and a lovely wife, who cooked cleaned and loved ALL her children, but things just changed. When Dave's mother drank more than just what was provided at his parents daily happy hour. She began to grow madly with rage for absolutely no reason, and you can guess she doesn't deal with her rage the proper way-by talking about it. She takes out her misguided rage on her child. At first she didn't care which one that was until it was only one kid she could catch. This went on for a while things never got better, for David. Because David was the only one getting caught she began to refer to David as the bad boy. She would only [FOCUS] her anger on him, and the other children would get better treatment and even if they did something wrong it was like David was the bad guy tempting gods angles, and the bad guy had to be PUNISHED! The only time David could get away from his daily(even hourly punishments) was his father. David's father was likes superhero to him his mother would never punish him when he was around or she may not have even been able to find him. She began to care less and less of what her husband thought. David's father would have to fight to get David the things parents are supposed to provide, sometimes he won sometimes David had to suffer. The longer this went on the less David's father won the arguments. It got to the point when there was no point of even arguing. By that time David was sleeping under the kitchen table with a broken arm, a cold dirty floor, and an empty stomach. That soon changed too. His mother had a feeling that he may have been getting the scraps of food that had fallen from the table as her family was eating so she moved him to the garage that was his new bedroom. His live was a living ( excuse my language) hell. But he eventually found his way away/ out if his mothers evil clutches. But that stab wond, and years if memories will keep him from forgetting the family he once had, and never has to go back to.

romeo and juliet essay

ROMEO AND JULIET
          Fate, Young Love, and Enemies are some of the most important themes in the play. For Romeo and Juliet they have found the love of their lives in the eyes of their enemies and there was many obstacles keeping them apart, and because of their young, and naive minds they believed that their love was fate and that everything that is happening is for a reason, and this maybe one of the causes of their very tragic deaths.
          For Romeo and Juliet they found love at first site, and because of their young minds they didn’t know how to control it. In the beginning it is clear that Romeo is a lover not a fighter. He was first in deep, paralyzing love with Rosaline , and he was devastated at the fact that they could never be together because of the future she choose for herself(she wanted to be a nun), but he seemed to have gotten over her just as soon as he laid eyes on the lovely Juliet. Romeo has just switched his old set of love problems for new more complicated ones. When the love had become too much death became an option, if only they had thought it through more. Juliet was so desperate that when the opportunity came for her to fake her death and be with Romeo she took it in the snap of a finger, in act 4 scene 1 the friar Lawrence offers her the vial she replays with-“Give me! Give me! Tell me not to fear. Love give me strength and strength shall help me afford.” They expected fate to lead their way, maybe it did.
          Romeo and Juliet both believed in fate and that everything that happens is planned and has a reason.  If fate is really behind all of this would Romeo and Juliet still have fallen in love if Romeo had not came to the party? Would Juliet have ended up with paris(-her arranged fiancĂ©)? And was it fate how everything ended up in the end? After juliet’s “death” the friar Lawrence sends the message to romeo about the events that have taken place during his banishment pertaining to Juliet, but Balthazar(-romeos servingman ) delivers the news of juliets death to romeo first, without knowing that she isn’t in a perminant sleep. This is the first thing in this series of events that goes wrong and forbids their love. Then, romeo arrives at the chamber  just minuites before planned. In those early minuites that romeo is in the chamber he knows that he will die that night he plans this because if she is gone and dead he can not live without her. In act 5 scene 3 he states “ here will I remain with worms that are thy chamber-maids; O, here will I set up my everlasting rest”  he then drinks the poison. After witnessing the lifeless body of her one and only love she replys with “yea, noise, then I’ll be brief. O happy dager this is sheath, there rust, and let me die.” According to them fate was behind this.
           We still cannot over look where romeo and juliet come from, that plays a big role in the ending of their story. Romeo comes from the family of Montague’s. the montague’s are absent from romeos life most of the time and it seems as though that maybe the reason he fall in love so quickly is because he doesn’t get that type of love at home or doesn’t feel it at home. in juliets case she may get just a little too much. juliet has no friends except for the nurse who maybe considered a mother too her given the fact that she NURSED her. as you can see these two families are very different in their home lives. these two families are enemies and it seems as though it's been that way for many years now and these two children have the courage to go against that. it maybe wronge but it may have brought them together in some way. when they first met they had no idea about the surcumstances of the lovers but they may find out a little too late-"my only love sprung from my only hate too early seen unknown and known too late prodigous birth of love it is home that i must love a loth enemy" (act 1 scene 5).  they have no idea what they have gotten themselves into until they have reached the point of no return. they know that there is no way that their parents will approve of this let alone the city.
          romeo's tragic story ends this way because of many different things in their love could not survive if things were different the outcome may have been much different. if they hadnt rushed into this "love" and taken it slow as the friar lawrence had suggested they may have tought of smarter ways to have helped their love survive. maybe it was fate, but if it was there was no changing what would have happened. no matter what they would have found each other, also if the parents of these two troubled sould brought them up just alittle bit differently they may never meet at all so family, fate and young love all tie into the ending of the beautiful story of romeo and juliet

R&J

As many may know R&J stands for ROMEO AND JULLIET. The beautiful classic about two enemies who fall madly in love. Romeo is a Monteque. And Julliet happens to be a capulet. Since the beginning of these two families they have been enemies for reasons unknown to the public. Romeo and Julliet are from very different backgrounds. Romeo spends most of his time chillin on the beach while Julliet probibly sits in her room brushing her hair. Romeo was in love before he laied eyes on Julliet, he loved a women by the name of rosaline. Roailine was Romeos only love but they could never be together because rosaline was supposed to become a nun. Romeo was devastated. He thought he would never find love again, that was until he spotted the dear Julliet. It was love at first sight for both Romeo and Julliet. They exchanged their first kiss just min.s After. By the end of the party they knew for sure they were in love. Later did they find out it was a forbidden love. Because of the feud between both families there was no way they could ever be together, plus two day later she was set to marry a man by the name of Paris. a man picked, and decided on by both her mother and father. That does not stop them given to her by the priest Julliet was given a poison to make her appear dead. Julliet is set to wake up in the next 24 hours. All of this was decided upon and done without Romeos consent or knowledge. Convinced that his wife and love of his life is dead he takes matters into his own hands. After disobeying his banishment sentence, he comes back into town buys a death poison, and with that in one band and a gun in the other he barges into the church where his far lady lies. As Romeo sits with her on her deathbed and cries she slowly begets to wake up, after she is fully awake it's already too late Romeo drank to poison, in willing a to live on Julliet takes Romeos gun and puts a bullet in her head. Together they lie on their way to heaven.




This is the ending that I am able to tell thanks to the larmen version of Romeo and Julliet. The ending in the book I have yet to find out.

Middle school sucks

So over the break I haven't read too much I mean it was only one day but who cares we're to talk about the book. Shall we? So far he kind of stopped his operation. R.A.F.E. thing he stayed out of trouble for a while that was until he got his report card. You would think he was a 2nd grader trying to do 8th grade work. Yea, that bad. He decided not to show his mom wouldn't want to make her feel any worst. So he had the dog chew it up a bit, then to complete the destruction he burned the remains. On top of seeing how bad he had did In The quarter he finally attempted to make a move with the girl of his dreams just to get turned down and the worst thing about is that the sweeter she tried to break it to him the worst it made him feel, plus the fact that even I saw she had been leading him on. After his first heartbreak if the year when he came back from school the day after Christmas break he came home to find his mom of the school web page checking his grades~all that work for nothing. After the bully had pushed rafe's buttons just a little too much he took matters into his own hands he jumped on The kids back and just his luck someone got the teacher. Both of them got an in school suspension and a phone call home. After his first day of in school suspension his mom and teachers decided he should get a tutor the picked the perfect person for him. Janee the girl who broke his heart. Sucks for him. See how it turns out until next time

6th grade part two

I'm back once again talking about the same book. I'm almost done though. just to recap a boy- rafe just started middle school. boy does he have an imagination. the detentions are cellars, and the teachers are dragons. so far he has gained a crush on this girl who doesn't exactly feel the same about him. ohhhh burn. plus he inherited a bully. this kid will not give him a chance. while he tries to deal with all this his friend Leo the silent was making a drawing of a kid who broke all the rules in the Hvms rule book as rafe decided that that was who he wanted to be. he decided that by the end of the year he would have broken all the rules so far he got pretty close that was until Halloween when he was told to take his ninja costume off he ran through the hall in nothing but underwear, when his mom found out tears started to roll down her face when rafe saw how disappointed he made his mother he decided to take a break for a while. during his break time the bully attacked him and when he dropped his rule book plan the bully took it and is now making rafe pay for each page one by one. and because rafe cares so much about what his mother feels about him he didn't want his mother to find out about his plan and things were going well until his report card came he took matters into her own hands and burned the report card but didn't think about the fact that his grades would still be on the school website. that's all I have so far. until next time.

middle school

this book is about at a 6th grade reading level but I saw the advertisement on tv and thought it might be interesting to read so here it is. this book so far is about a boy who is just starting middle school and has some ideas about what to expect. this kid decides he will blend in and sit in the back and not attract any attention but that goes terribly wrong when he finally picks a seat it's turns out to be the biggest kid in the classes seat. when he tries to defend him self a huge scene starts so now he has made a enemy with the teacher and the class bully. that is the jist of what I read so far. basically i believe this book is trying to entertainingly scare the children that are entering the 6th grade sorry it isn't very lengthy I just started reading it today ( Thursday).
Dope sick: the ending
Just to do a quick recap of what happened throughout the book. The main character-lil’j is now a father and is forced to NOT be a part of his son’s life, due to the mixed emotions of his baby mama, and her mama. Because, he has no job nor does he have an apartment for them to live in they have to live by her mama’s rules until they get all they’re needs.  Now, I could understand why he would want to go out and get some fast money, but do it the legal way; which he tried to do until he got impatient. He decided that waiting for that job was a waste of time and went to get money the fastest way but also illegal way. All was going well until they found out the buyer was an undercover cop. Because there were two of them and only one cop they thought fast. They took the cops handcuffs and cuffed him to the banister inside, when they were on their way out the other guy got the smart idea that the cop might have had a wallet on him so when he went back about a couple seconds later there were gun shots and lil’j was out of there. He was so close but when they caught his “friend” he sang like a canary, sold him out with no reward in return, he even blamed the shooting on him also. While still on the run he came across an abandoned house, he thought that would be the best place to hide out until the coast was clear. While he was there he decided to wander around looking for the nearest exit just in case the cops decided to take a look inside the house.  While wandering he ran into another kid not much younger than him-Kelly. As lil’j got more comfortable around Kelly he started to share his story and as he went on Kelly always found a way to sneak the question-so if you could change one this that would be it, or that’s the thing you want to change? I never knew why I thought he might have been able to change something in his life but wanted to get it right that’s why he continued to listen plus it was kind of weird how on Kelly’s security camera it had footage from things , and days that haven’t come yet. That didn’t faze lil’j too much so he kept on talking and in the end sure enough he didn’t it undid one thing that changed the whole outcome in whether he went to jail or not, maybe even it he lived or died.    
p.s. ms rear i gave you this blog post and my internet has been down latly that is why it took me so long to actually post it.
