The outcast of poker flat

If you had to blame someone or somethings for the outcasts' deaths who/what would you blame & why?

If i could blame anyone i would blame Uncle Billy because he left them in the snow without any chance of the other ones getting to safety. He did the worst thing ever he left them in the snow and in the cold it was really bad what he did and really bogus but i guess he only cared about his own safety and not any of the others. If anything he should've been the only one that should have been kicked out of the place because everyone else there were pretty good people and the only one that looked like he should have been kicked out was Uncle Billy. They all died because of the coldness and the only person that shoul be blamed for that is uncle Billy because he left them where they could all die and without a way to get back home or to some other place. They didn't have food and anything that could keep them alive only fire wood and the fire to keep them warm he took most of the supplies so they couldn't even have enough food to last them for long. That was very bad what he did because they all should've sticken togethere because that they all got kicked out togethere and better they stick togethere and pull thrue it then only 1 of them come out with his life guarented but i guess that was what he wanted because he never cared about anyone else he should've been the only one to get kicked out of poker flat.

The Story Of An Hour

I like this story because the wife had a heart problem and they thought that she was going to have trouble when they gave her the bad news. It was funny because when they told the woman she just walked away i thought she was going to have problems but instead she was really happy. she was thinking about how she was going to spend her life and have so much fun without her husband like she didnt even care that the man she married died it's weird but a litle funny. what the funniest thing that happend was that when she saw her husband and in reality he wasnt dead she screamed and she died the doctors said that she died because she got too happy to see him it was really funny. i like this story a lot it made me laugh when they said that she died because she got too happy which was not true and she didn't even like her husband that much.

The Blind Man

This story is really sad because it shows how in reality some people are to disabled people and think that they are weird and not human. In this story there is a man that is blind and he goes walking knocking on people's windows and a rich man gives him some pencils so he could sell only because he wanted him to leave his yard. People act like they dont see him and they see him walking in the sun and nobody tells him '' oh come over here into the shade so you wont get hot'' but they just let him figure it out himself. They act like he is nothing and they treat him like a animal that is sad even the children don't respect him he is blind and they try to rob him but they couldn't, and then a police officer starts to pull him like nothing almost beating him up but he didn't because he is blind. After that a rich man gets ran over by some cars and all these people start screaming and the blind man says '' where did these people come from'' because they were all quiet and trying to not get noticed by him and nobody offers to help him cross the street and more that he could get ran over because he is blind. This is also how some people do act to people that are disabled like if they are mentally challenged they make fun of them and that is wrong and bad, and they also people that are different then they are like if they are blind or deaf that they say oh look at that freak of nature and that is wrong because they didn't choose to be like that and if they could they wouldn't want to be like that if they could choose.

''Dr. Heidegger's experiment''

My obeservation of the experiment. at first i thought maybe they could fix the errors that they made in their lives their names were mr. medbourne who was a hustler, colonel killigrew drunk, Mr. gascoigne a ruined politician, widow wycherly they say she was a hood rat. these people have all commited errors in their lives and they were all paying the price for them i wanted to help and i tried i knew the effects of the water wasn't going to be permanent but i wanted to see what happen.
i got them to go to my house and i told them what the water would i told them that they had to be sure if they wanted to do it they all excepted. they drank it and in a matter of minutes they started to grow younger and becoming more immature. they acted like if they were intoxicated and they acted dumb started running around and the widow asked me to dance with her i told her no i am too old and cant they all started to laugh. things that they did scared me they were really disrespectful and they looked 20 years old, but they acted like 9 year olds. at the end they all started to have intercourse with the widow it was really weird i felt uncomfordable the weird thing was that they would look old in the mirror. They started fighting over the widow and they were fighting over her they learned nothing from their past experience and they looked like it was the first time they were doing that, and they were fighting so much that they knocked down the water and my flower turned back too old, and they also did.
They wanted to find more water so they could stay young and never grow old they didnt learn anything i tried to help them but they weren't willing to help themselves. I never want to try using that magic water because then i will repeat the mistakes i commited and be immature which i dont want to do. so they may find the fountain of youth or may not but atleast i know that my experiment was a FAILURE!!!!!!!

Desiree's Baby, The Sequel

Armand couldn't believe what he had just read his own very mother was black that was probably why she never came back with us. He was wondering if that if everything his father told him was true he was a white man that had a sexual relationship with a black women and they had him he is half-black he chased his wife and his son out because he thought his mother was black and his son came out black not because of his mother but because of his father. After he found out he was stunned he didnt know if it was true he waited a few days to see if she had got to her mothers house then he would go see her on boat but it was hard trip. He finally got there when he whent to go see if she was there her mother said no, but he decided to wait a week or two but she still wasnt there. He was scared for his wife he went back and told the mother to write to him if she heard or seen of them she said ok.

if you were given a choice to have an operation that would make you much smarter would you do it, especially if you knew the effects of the surgery would only be temporary? why or why not? use examples from the story.

if i could to have the operation or not i wouldnt do it. The reason for that is that with charlie they did the operation to him and they made him study things and all i think the operation was for was so that he could learn things much quicker. i would rather study and make myself stronger and feel self-accomplished then get an operation and just learn faster without feeling anything that i worked hard to get to how smart i was. i wouldnt do it especially if i would know that i wouldn't be smart if you study you would not lose anything that you have read or learned on your own. i would never do the operation so that i could feel accomplished and not be temporary how smart i would be with the operation i would want to work hard learning things and it would be really good how i feel because i would know that i got that smart because of myself and not because of any operation.

The curious case of Benjamin Button, chapter 8- the end

explain what this story says about each of these issues. Use examples from the story to support your explinations.

Family

the family things that were here werent very good one. one thing was that when he was Benjamin was born his dad didnt like him because he was born and old man and that isnt right. when he was growin up his dad took 12 years to get along with him that is wrong because you have to like your family even if the way they look or how old they look. when he was like really old his son was embarrased about him and didnt want no one to know he was his dad and thats wrong because your sopposed to get along and not be embarrased of them expecially your parents they are the ones that raised you. at first his dad was ashamed of him because he looked to old and tried to dye his hair but it was really bad and that isnt what family does we have to like each other no matter what and also benjamins son was ashamed of him because he looked to young and he tried to make him look older and its the same thing he is embarrased of him and it is wrong.

Age

Age here is important to everyone because benjamin tried to go to yale but they didnt let him because of the age he looked and they just kicked him out. When he got married his wife thought he was 50 and that is why she even went out with hi because she said 20-40 is the work type and 60 is too old but 50 year old guys know how to treat a woman. most people look at people by the age.

beauty

beauty is counted alot here in this book. like benjamin he married a woman that he saw because of her beauty but when she grew older he didnt like her that much because i guess she looked different then before.

the curious case of benjamin button, chapters 3-7

After reading chapters 3-7, predict three problems you think benjamin will encounter & give solutions for each.

one problem that he is going to encounter is that since he is growing younger he is going to get tired of his wife. the solution i see for him is that he will leave his wife becouse he isnt going to feel the same for her and he will probably find someone else that he will like and i think he will do that.



second problem is that eventually he is going to become a baby. the solution is that his parents always wanted for him to be a kid and now that he is going to become one his parents are going to see how it is to take care of a baby if there even alive to take care of him.



third his son will become the same age as him eventually and thats not good because then they can fight and maybe the kid could win. the solution is that he should teach his kid that at any time he should respect him and that violence is not the way to go but if he doesnt teach him this then maybe just maybe the kid would be disrespectful and try to beat up the dad.

the curious case of benjamin button chapter 2

Roger is so overly concerned with how benjamin looks and is worried about what people are going to say. what should he do?

I think that he should treat him nicely because he is his son and they shouldnt treat him like he is a mistake because they wanted him and now they have to face the concequences and they should treat the kid with respect and love him as a their son which he is. i think that since he is very old and they cant stand it then i guess they should make him look younger like a haircut and dye his hair some other color and get him clothes that a kid could wear so that he could atleast look young and not like a grandpa.

the curious case of benjamin button chapter 1

what would you have done if you were roger button in chapter 1?



well at first i would be really scared thinking that my son was older then me and that he was just old. i think i would have run out of the hospital terrified and maybe go home and go check it out again the next day just to see if it was true. since he didnt have anything to wear then i would go and get him some clothes because no one would want to see him naked walking around. I would think that since he was old he wouldnt live that long and i would probably be sad because even if he is old he still is my blood and my son. i would be creeped out bringing him home and letting my friends see him but it would be ok because he is my son.

bad choices

Wake up in the morning
Its going to be a fun day
I shouldn’t disappoint my mother again
I should stick to my studies don’t think of other things
But my mind keeps on drifting away
I made so many bad choices already
Made my mom so sad already
Things going on that I can not explain
My family says I am a very smart kid
Just that I don’t make any good decisions
I try and try to not do anything bad
But I keep falling back and back
For every step I take forward
It feels like I take 3 steps back
The path I took at first led me to a dead end
It felt like there was no turning back
But I fixed the errors in my ways
And only hope that its not too late.
