Red Queen (theme)

In this book it's about people in different groups and doing things different. So I was thinking that the theme was " not everyone gonna be the same and think the same" there's a lot of stuff going on in this book like, silver doing things the Reds wouldn't do. Like in the book I said that the silver would want to whole crowd to see them kill someone. But Reds they don't like how they do that, but they have no choice, they have to watch it. Many people don't like what others do but why worry about it of course people are going to be different. If not everyone going to be the same and it would be boring. See this theme works for the book because lots of people want to be the same. Which would be boring because they wouldn't have lots of things to do. But not everyone the same right? So therefore I think it's good to be different than others.

The Start of Me and You

This theme of the book is "losing someone you love the most" there are many things in this book she looses her boy friend she loved the most. Always being with him everyday being together. I cant connect to this theme because I had lost someone I loved, no it wasn't my boyfriend but it was a family member. I loved him so much I would always be with him, he made me laugh, cry, and smile. I trusted him so much on everything. This book and my connection aren't really a good connection but it's something similar. Both having to deal with someone we both loved and cared for. But again life goes on in the book she could find someone else she still has time, and I will always remember my uncle I loved but life goes on. No matter what they'll always be in your heart.

The Start of Me and You ( memory moments)

In this book there is memory moments to when they talk about her boy who had die that drown. She always remembers about him and what they did together. She loved him so much. The only way the know her is because she the girl boyfriend who drowned.  "And I was the girl whose boyfriend drowned" she really doesn't like hippie because that all they know about her. But in the book she mets a guy but she always remembers about her ex boyfriend. She was so happy with him until it ended. Seeing other people happy with their boyfriends and she feels lonely. Finally she gets with a guy but she still loves her old boyfriend. She'll never forget him. 

Compare and Contrast

In the book "The Start of Me and You" and "The End or Something Like That" there are both similar but not that similar. In both of the books they have to deal with someone they love that had died. The End or Something Like That, she lost her best friend Kim. The other book The Start of Me and You, Paige  lost her boy friend. "One day my best friend named Kim died" this quote says that she had lost her best friend. "And I was the girl whose boyfriend drowned" they Both had to do something with dying but different ways. Aaron that was her boyfriend name, well he had died cause he drowned in the water and Kim she had heart cancer. These two stories are different but quit alike. They both went through depression. But thats not it they both lost someone they loved. 

Red Queen

In the begginning of this book it pretty boring it talks about how there different groups Silver and red. The reason why there are separated is because they they like doing there thing there way. Silver want prisoners and enemies of the state killed right I front of the silver crowd. The Reds don't really want that but they have to deal with it. The Reds have to sit I the back and silver in the front. In the book thus girl she finally turns 18 and once you hit that age you go into war. In her generation her family does this thing were they buy a earring and they keep one and give the there other one too one of her sisters. " I was thirteen when Bree left. He kissed me on the check and gave me a single pair of earrings for my little sister, Gisa and me to split." Now this year it her year to give her earrings she's finally leaving, she is going to war with the other people. " I've already started saving -and stealing- to buy Gisa some earrings when I go."  Everyone in her family does this. And that's is what going on in this book.

Memory moment in The End or Something Like That

One of the memory in The End or Something Like That the main character (they don't say her name) she has memories about her best friend who had died cause of heart cancer. She remembers the times where they always went to the canyon and they'll take the bikes. "It was a long walk, and sometimes We would bring our bikes on the bus and ride to the canyon." In this quote it tells you what she remembered what they'll do. She always was with Kim the always agreed I the same thing. "I was scared we were going tight arrested but I did what I always did I took a big breath ad said "okay"'  like she said "I did what i always did" it tells you she's always been doing it for a long time. Anyways she always doing crazy stuff with Kim and haves a great time with her. "We got our bikes, she made me wear the clown afraid she wore the Elvira wig. And the we put on these scarves so that no one would be able to identify us, Kim Said" they went all around the block saying names to other people. I find that funny to be honest there really funny best friends. I recommend this book but it's funny,and sad. But to me it's a good book.

The End or Something Like That

In this book there are again and again moment. This girl (they don't say her name) her best friend dies and the girl she keeps get memories about her. Right now it's gonna be 1 year without her and she remembered when she was talking about a guy named Dr. Ted Farnsworth a guy who could help you talk to the died. Kim she wanted her to talk to her but "the girl" she is afraid because she has never done this. Later she goes back to the real life and her earth science teacher died and it reminds her about Kim mostly everything she thinks about comes back to what happens too Kim. 

Saddest Books

I am going to compare Imperfect Spiral and "The End or Something Like That." In both book there is something about death. In the book "The End or Something Like That." They don't give the girls name but her best friend Kim died and in the Imperfect Spiral Daniella the boy she baby sitting died too. But Humphrey the boy Daniella was babysitting he died because he was getting the ball from the street and the person in the car wasn't paying attention and hit Humphrey. In the end of something like that, Kim died because she had heart cancer and her hurt wasn't working anymore. Also one other difference was that Kim is a middle schooler and Humphrey he was just a 5 year old boy. In both of the books there are lots of depression going on and it's really hard for them to continue with there lives. These two books got to me so upset because it's so sad how these two people died in a young age. I also know how it feels to loose someone you really loved. 

Imperfect Spiral

In the book imperfect spiral Daniella is still upset about what happened Humphrey but then again she happy. The reason why she is happy is because she met a guy he's name is Justin and now she is in a relationship with Justin. She met Justin in the park were Humphrey had died. She's like finding a way to stop remembering but then again she with Justin and that where she met Justin. I think she should just forget about the past. It happened already he is in a good place be happy for him. Justin has noting to do with him, yeah maybe you meet him here Humphrey was killed but that shouldn't change anything. So therefore she should just keep going on with her life and stay with Justin. 

What cause Genocide?

These genocides don't happen for no reason of course there's a reason. Maybe that reason could be because people see the worst things about others people's religious. They talk to others about how some people think a different way and they think they should think their way. Others don't see how others see it. They want to spread each other or doing something to them.  They'll harm them how ever they could. It's like what they did to the Jews in Vietnam war, they order them to do thing and they killed them because they weren't what the other people were. Adam Hitler brain washed people. They might not do that but I know for sure they'll harm us or others. We could end it everyone has to be different if we were all the same it'll be boring and people have there way of thinking. My friends don't believe in God and I do. I'm fine with it I don't mind it but I would argue about some stuff and that's good because then we know how others think. So really it's not bad to have a different religion or how others think. That shouldn't make us hurt others we should see a better view. 

Conflict in Imperfect Spiral

In the book Imperfect Spiral, Daniella a teenage girl who is baby sitting a five year old Humphrey. She taught him how to throw a football and catch one. Daniella threw the ball farther and it landed on the street. Humphrey went to go get the ball,he wasn't paying attention. There was a car coming and it hit Humphrey. Daniella  ran to him and she crys. Few months later she goes visit he's family. She kept saying it was her fault and she was blaming her self. " I'm so sorry, you must be in pain, how awful for you." She's been writing her a lot of letters and she hasn't answered none. That's why she thinks it's her fault. But later when she goes visit they say it isn't her fault that it was that kid because he was so young and he wasn't paying attention. 

What I felt about the Holocaust

I would've just help them. But again if I do won't I get in trouble? I would be killed. It sucks how they just watched them get killed.  They didn't do anything to help them. I feel really bad for they have don't and what they did to them. Wishing someone would help them. Lots of people died because of them. If this didn't happened we wouldn't lose any more people. So it sucked for them cause they died because of the nazis.

Frank Anne adversity

              Some problems Anne had faced was that she had to live in the attic for years and she barely had enough food. She could go outside and have fun. She couldn't even look out of the window. No fresh air and no Friends to see. She couldn't even talk for hours. Had lost friends and family members. I can relate  to this because a few family member passed away.

Sweet, Beautiful Florida

 

I would love to live in Florida. Florida is a beautiful places to live the trees are so big and beautiful. The beach is so big. I would love to go to Disney world and go to the beach and relax. The weather out there is so beautiful. I've never seen what they eat there but my friend out there says its really good. He says the houses over there is so big. I would love to live in a big house. I could have lots of space. My friend goes there every year and I see pictures of the beach and it's so big. The water is so beautiful. I think I would enjoy living at Florida I love warm weather and beautiful places to stay. That's one of the places I would go live. 

A half a World Away

Sixteen year old Eliza Miller has never had a phone, never tired on a pair of jeans never sat In a darkened theater waiting for a movie to start. She's never even talked to someone her age who isn't Amish, like her. She is different then others.When she leaves her close-knit family to spend the summer as a nanny in suburban Chicago, a part of her can't wait to leave behind everything she knows. She can't imagine the secrets she will uncover, the friends she will make, the surprises and temptations of a way of life so different from her own. This book was t that good but I think you should read it cause she a different person she isn't like us. 

The book stolen girl, had good scenes. I never really believed Cheyenne was in any great danger. I knew from the 2nd chapter that Griffin was never going to let anything bad happen to her. It would have been better if we didn't know Griffin was completely good guy, if there was some doubt over his good intentions, something dangerous about him other than his father. The book would have been more intense if all the angles had been played.  she really didn't dive that deep into the psychology of being kidnapped. So I think you should read this book because it's really good and it's sad. 

The Pregnancy Project

 

             In the book pregnancy project there's this girl name Gabriela but Gaby  and she is a smart girl and she has good grades. But in this story she has a project she has to do for school it's her last year of college. Her mom was pregnant at a young age. She was fourteen and had her baby at fifteen. So Gaby wants to do a project of a fake pregnancy but no one knows only her mother and her principle. She tells her friends about her pregnancy and they thought she was just joking, which she is but she can't say so finally when she told them they were so rude they started saying things. One said "your one of the smart girls why would you do this, I didn't expect you'll have a baby!" They treated her like if someone made the badess mistake in our whole enter life. Same goes to her teachers they were talking about her. I recalled that one of her teachers said she missed up her life and she won't go to collage. I can compare this to someone in my family. My sister,she was pregnant at 14. When she told her friends no one wanted to talk to her. Her teachers were a shamed of her. When she had her baby no one was there for her. This doesn't really relate her to Gaby but it does how people talk about them and they turn there backs on her. It kills me how people react to those who got pregnant at a young age. One of her friends told her "Why would a smart kid do the S*******t thing ever."  Till this day she remembers who told her that. It somewhat could connect to both Gaby mom and Gaby herself. Gaby mom was pregnant at 14 same goes to my sister.Gaby friends and teachers would talk bad things about her and same goes to my sister. 

My Goal This Year

                   This year my goals are I want at least 3's or2's for my grades. I want to graduate middle school with a great year. Also tips one not about school but I would like to learn more things about house to do braids and stuff like that with hair. When I grow up I want to be a hair stylist. I've been learning how to do year since I was little. But to accomplish that I have to study and practice every time. Hopefully when I enter high school I do really good. I don't want to miss any homework or dopey off or else I won't learn anything. I'm not going to accomplish all but I'd love to do them. This year is going to be the best good year for me.

      

 The Girl Stolen

By:April Henry 

         The book I am reading is called Girl Stolen. The theme in this book is be careful on what you do, make sure something or someone's with you. The characters in this book are Gheyenne, Dainelle,Griffen, and Roy. The problem in the story was that Griffen was stealing a car. That car was Danielle and Gheyenne. Gheyenne is blind. Her mom leave to go to the store and Gheyenne was in the back seat laying down with a cover on her. Griffen gets in the car and drives away. Gheyenne hear but doesn't do anything. She puts the cover over her head. Griffen doesn't know that she in the back seat until he see's her. the main problem this that he has the girl and he doesn't know what to do leave her or take her. This book is interesting because a girl who's blind gets taken to a place. Someone who doesn't know what to do with her. All she does is screams for someone to help her, she can't run away because she can't see. What do they do?
