Late Assignment for 4/24

Because I haven't finished reading my current book Summer of my German Solider. So I really can't explain much about since I'm only on chapter 3 or 4. But I have read other books. But I'm too lazy to memorize those and start up an explanation. So I'll just start with...

This book made me ponder about what might happen next. The main character is... I don't know. I forgot her name. But she is a Jew in the 1940's obviously. But her location is in... I don't remember either. All I know is she near Tennessee and the Mississippi river. She comes from a wealthy family and leads a normal life. Not to mention she plain for a girl. Her mother expects so Check Spellingmuch from her but sadly she can't meet her mother's expectations. Shes a bit of a tomboy, and even her father ignores her. Thats normal. Pretty much. But who am I to judge? I don't know! It's until she is watching her father's shop from a far. One day the German Prisoner of War trucks arrive at the shop for a puchase of hats and such. The only english-speaking German prisioner catches the main character's eye. Oh, now I remember the name of the main character is Patty. So Patty tries to strike a conversation with Reiker the German soldier. I stopped reading there since I ran out of time. But I'll continue reading the rest of the book to the best of my ability. I know I can finish reading it this weekend if I really try. But I doubt it. I have a lot to do this weekend. I don't mind, but I have my reading journal due next week. And I have no freakin' idea for connection or a "hook". I'm like freaking out here dude! I wish I can do the journal on The Host or The Demonata: Bec. But I can't find the books anywhere! Still freaking out... I don't know what to do. At least I caught up with my 90 vocabulary cards. Thank God. Well that the end of my post. I'll see you guyz around. Laters!

Maritius Joy Ride

I went on a facinating little play called "Maritius" this past wednesday. A lovely, devastating tragic, tale of the 1 penny and 2 penny stamp post office. The two sisters in posession of the stamps are costantly fighting over who keeps the stamps. It is revealed the stamps are a fake at some point but it still unknown if the stamps are a fake or not.
I think that the theme of the play is, "Don't go around selling valuables to the wrong people." Supporting this, is Jacky selling both the 1 penny and 2 penny to some shady business man who is recommended by some other guy, who Jacky recently met as well. Both men which are Sterling and Denis, they are alien to Jacky and yet tries to strike an offer with her.
I cab relate more to Jacky because she is greedy and only thinks of herself, rather than her sister and the value of the stamps. Well obviously Mary was the right one. Her motives are wiser than Jacky's. Her motives have included donating her grandfather's stamps to a museum. She would be benefiting the world rather than herself. I have the same conflicts with my brothers as well. But not anything as big as this. Nothing as vital as this. Hmm... And my family is of my full blood. Not half.

Music=Life<3


The assignment for today is a personal connection to the Alchemist. A lovely little story really. You must read it if you want a bit of wisdom. Not all that long either. Basically, the main character finds his Personal Legend and the love of his life. I'm like Santiago just cause he wants to find his Personal Legend and love. I'm in the search for the same thing, just at a different time period. Where it's most hard to read the omens. I'm different from cause I'm not a straight out pussy at first. He get tricked and robbed and that would most likely not happen to me. Because I would'nt let it happen to me. I'm not as unfortuanate as he is. Sometimes I think that Santiago is a bit of an idiot at some times. He just cant seem to make the right choices on his own. He might have to depend on the omens having to force him to think straight. I would make waaay different decisions because I would'nt take as much risky decisions that make him look bad if he fails. I want to look good and seem superior to everyone else. Smarter that evryone else. My decision would benefit mostly those whom I love the most.
