my favorite assigment

I think my favorite assigment would have to be...... My Romeo and Juliet extra credit project. I feel like I did very well on it. I loved doing all the projects with people they were so much fun. I love working with people in my class. My extra credit prject is actually hanging on my wall thats how proud I am of doing. I thought i had a good grasp of what Romeo an Juliet was about so it was easy to write the essay an to do other things on the book.

Romeo and Juliet

Romeo and Juliet actually is eveywhere. Love is always in the air. Especially in high school everyone is looking for true love, their other half. But sometimes people can actually keep you apart. For example your friends and family. In Romeo and Juliets case their parents tryed to keep them away from eachother because of a fight they had. I think that is exactly like high school. If your a girl and your friends date a boy you really liked but said "If you date him I'll be so mad at you." So, you go off and tell the boy that and he says "Oh dont worry about her." You take his word and everything falls to peices. Your friend ship is distroyed cause of what you did. So all you want to do is kill your self. But the boy is still in love with you. if you kill your self then your love will kill himself.

Romeo Juliet

Okay, well my family are more like Juliets family. My mom always makes the decisions for me and shes always telling me what to do. Also my mom and I aren't as close as I am with me father so I guess I'm more like Juliet I feel like I'm locked up and never can get out. Juliet can only get out of her house if she is getting married. I can only get out when I'm 18 (an adult). So I guess I can more relate to Juliet then I can to Romeo. Romeo his parents care about his love life my mother doesn't. She feels she has to make my decisions fr me so I don't make the wrong choice, but if I stay locked up how am I suppose to know how to make decisions on my own? She's always controlin me like Juliets parents are.

Shaskspears writing is very hard to read. I really can't understand it so when I go to class I come confused cause I never know what they are saying untill we actually know what the meaning of each line is suppose to mean.

picture

I think this image retaltes to Great Expectations because this is a collage it has many images. In the book there was many symbols and things that really there isnt just one picture. All the pictures are dark because all through out the book it was very dark and stormy. Alot of the images Pip went through when he was little to where he is now. I think all the pictures represent something in Great Expectations.

LATE- GE question

All through out the book Charles Dickens keeps bringing up Pips sister bring him up by hand. Like I know that she saved him and what not but why does it come up so many times?? Is it leading to something??

Ohhh i thought of something

Okay so here it goes I was looking through my movies and think "does this remind me of Great Expectations?" and non really did. So I finally found one that did this was Soooo hard!! But I truely thought that The Lizzie McGuire movie was perfect.
Lizzie really represents Pip. They were the same in many ways. The setting also took place in Europe also. Then there's Lizzies best friend Gordo he I thought represented Biddy. Next there is Kate that is Lizzies evil enemy. She really reminded me of Drummle.
One day the mean teacher that I think could be Jaggars took them to the Trive fountain and Lizzie met this guy that really reminds me of Estella.
Lizzie kept sneaking out to hang with this boy. She really liked him and she loved the fancy things "becoming a gentalmen" So when Lizzie would go out and hang with this boy Gordo would have to lie to keep her out of trouble. Lizzie kept feeling bad. "guilty" but kept doing what she was doing.
Pallo which is the boy. Asked Lizzie to sing for him at a concert because his ex-girlfriend was apparently lip singing ( she wasn't) but he asked her so that she wouldn't get sued. What he did was illegal. Lizzie was obviously not isabella. "crime and punishment"
Then Isabella came and Lizzie and her be came friends which I think is Herbert. But Isabella comes and saves Lizzie from Paulina evil plan
These storys were so much alike I can't believe I found a story they both show a message a out humanity.

Pip

This quote was really confusing, but the message is that Pip is referring to life. He looks and sees every aspect of it. As if it were a series of links in a chain. He compares his to Miss Havisham's. He sees how illiterate Joe is compared to Miss Havisham and he decides that he wants to be educated and not a poor dumb child always embarrassing himself. This is definitely a turning point in his life because he grows up and matures. He sees that he will not get far if he continues in his childish ways. The links made of iron and thorns represented Bad moments in his life, which might include the choices he made, the fact that he could barely read or write, and always goofed around. Some moments that might be gold or flowers would be when he realizes Joe's trade is common or low. When he meets Miss Havisham he sees his life can be much greater.

My Chain started when my brothers went off to college, I realized i no longer had to depend on others. That i could,  and had to start taking care of myself. It had good aspects and bad, now i am more emotional and insecure. I try not to get close to people because i'm afraid they will go away like my brothers did. On the positive side, I can take care of my self. I learned the skills necessary to be independent. I learned to cook, do laundry, and clean up after myself. So while i gained self reliability, I lost my trust in others.

Bobbees post thing

Dear, Chase and Alena.
   My phragraph is just about
      1) Algernon lying about the cucumbers. my contrete detail is Algernon lied to cover up the fact he did smething wrong. my commentarys are he never fess up to what he did. It was sometimes god to lie so there wouldnt be any consuquences.

      2) Lady Bracknell telling Cecily tht it was right to change her age. CD: Lady Bracknell thought it was acceptable to lie. CM: for  woman it was polite to lie. lieimg was openly expected by all.

The third paragraph i sumarized the ta party of Gwendolen and Cecily.

     3) CD: Cecily and Gwendolen used untruthulness in their little scrape at the tea party. CM: it would hv been very unfashion able to show their annoyance for each other. ( I need ne more)

What i ned help on is making a topic sentence and I need one more commentary for my third pargraph. Thanks

its a NEW YEAR!

Its a new year. What I want is to be healthy. Fit and in great shape as I can. My family has a problem with their weight. Most people in my family have diabeties or something that is very bad for you. I think  they have this because my family does not exercise enough and eat as best as they can. The weight problem is past by generation to generation. I want to prove to my family we will be healthy and that we cant be fit. We don't just have to sit around all day and take pills for what we did to our self's. So what my resolution is to exercise and eat healthy as much as I can. I don't want to turn out like my family did i want to have a future like one of my brothers did. Hes fit, healthy and went to college. He sent a message that we can do it. I want to do the same. That's my new year resolution.

I, Too

Well my poem is I, Too by Langston Hughes. This poem is very deep but in so little words. What I think he is talking about is that he is black, everyone underestimates him. People think that he will just be dumb and embarrass them in front of guest. So what do they do about it? All they do is send him to the kitchen. To eat by him self. then he says that he will eat at the table and he will prove to them that that he is a gentleman. That he is not dumb. he is a beautiful person and no one will treat him like the way they do because he is apart of America like everyone else is. I hope to read this poem like he would. Like if he were to be watching me and he would be proud of me. I want to say it with so much emotion and say it loud and proud.

On poetry out loud there are many meaningless poems. There are funny ones, sad, depressing, happy, ect. I picked one that meant something real. It really came from the heart. Its him expressing his feelings. This poem really connects to me life because I have 4 older brothers that are African American and they take racism and name calling very serous because of their skin color and they have been through it all when they were younger. I look up to them very much. So I thought that i would read this poem in honor of my brothers.
