Reflections


In this project we have to choose a story and do the summary and many more things to it, which make me, understand the story thoroughly because we have to know every bit of details in the story in order for us to be able to do this project. I have read the story for many times in order for me to be confidence enough to tell the story to the people or teacher like Mr. Ian to be straight I am scared while I took the video but because I have read this book many times I find that courage and finish the summarizing. 
I think that if my teacher did not assign me to read the story I would never have the chance to do these things I would never have the chance to understand the book and ever have the chance to touch the book if it is not this project I would not know there is a good book like this existing here in our school library I am so lucky I picked this book and also very lucky that I have the opportunities of life like this, I really want to thank Mrs. Amy for the chance that I will never find on my own.

By just seeing the story and the author including the illustration I am sure that you will want to read it. 

Dreams,Goals, and Motives.


In this story the main character really want an attention from people around her, she have a brother and a father, including a friend and one maid taking care of her. Her father was a busy man, he had not stayed with her for a long time in the story, her dreams I guess is just to gain attentions from the people she loved. The only goal in her life is just to make the people around her wanted to stay with her all the time that’s why in the story when Dill her friend has closer relationship with her Jem, her brother she was stunned she was sad and wanted to have a closer relationship to Dill more than Jem has. So she just decides to have a new friend which is some neighbor because she cannot get Dill from Jem, she was sad but she must admit it.
 I am not sure about her motives in the stories but if I would make a guess I think that it would be about her life, she is a lonely girl I can tell, she did not get much love from the people around her which is why it is very important for her to just get attention from people around her because if people will give her attention it will show that they care for her and love her, I can tell that inside her heart very deep inside she just wanted to express the feelings of love and she just want to get the love feeling from people around her. In the story it have changed from topic to topic and all of the topic there is no topic that shows us the readers that she is in a happy mode in all the conflict and story line she is very sad, which I think this motives would suits her most.

Although he knows that Boo is the one who stabbed Ewell, Heck wants to hush up the whole affair, saying that Boo doesn’t need the attention of the neighborhood brought to his door. Tom Robinson died for no reason, he says, and now the man responsible is dead: “Let the dead bury the dead.” Scout takes Boo upstairs to say goodnight to Jem and then walks him home.

Spectator Sport: Heaven

Heaven

Imagine a place where the odors of perfume spread throughout all over the land. Where colors of the rivers are crystal clear flowing everywhere you look by.  A place where majestic palaces are built in diamonds gold and emeralds. Not only palaces covered in rich element appear but architectures and every building and everything that exist cannot be afforded by the money of all the living things living on earth, because it is priceless.
                As my feet has transcend from earth going to a magical place called heaven which no human has ever experienced back alive. My eyes and body were capture by the beauty of the nature and the unrealistic figure that was right there before me. Continue walking until I was forced to stop by the beauty of green pacific grass which I lay myself down on the mellow grass with tall and rigid trees all around me, I look up the sky seeing two moments of time on that very same sky. The brightness of the sun which reflected my left eye make me wanted to shut it and sleep like I just finish from taking a cool bath. On the other side of my eye were dark and beautiful stars with the reflections of the moon. First time in my life seeing an outcast combination this fitted in perfectly. Look back on the ground beside me was empty for a moment I think of someone who would be there beside me making this wonderful place even more grandiose.
                As I have get up and continue my journey my eyes suddenly saw something again this time.  A flamboyantly colored rainbow of the hottest shades of blues and reds and yellows form an arch across the sky with glittering everywhere. Looking through the transparency of the rainbow there was a mountain forming the shape of a heart and a guy was at the center. I remembered it was very familiar looks that I have seen but I can’t make out in a distance. Then two more came beside him and thousands of aggrandize flying creature which were like angels form through the sky. Before I could walk and see or even touch what was there in front of me, I was shook awake.



This is the trees which I have found before I lay down besides it.
I Got it here

 



The imginary scene which is describe in my essay which one day would not just be only a dream
I got it here

Self Introduction Using a Word?

    There are so many varieties of words that can describe a person, to describe yourself I guess is ten times harder than describing others. Many people for example, me, does not really know how to define oneself perfectly. Some may think they know themselves very well but does not know what other think about them. To describe myself using one word is one of the hardest decision I have been through. I have been thinking it for days of which word best describes me and finally while I was showering a light bulb gleamed over my head. The one word which I would choose to describe me today is 'significant', but why? The meaning is important, why did I choose this word? It's not that I think I am important to the people around me, but I think people and things around me are very important to me. 
   There are of course many people passing through my lifetime each day and I think all of them are important to me. They are inspirations and motivations towards many things. Each one of them had change my life sometimes good sometimes bad. Some may manipulate my thinking of how I look and see things. Some open my eyes into different perspective of life. Some of them I had never have the chance to say thank you of how they changed me. 
   Not only people around me are important but things around me are also very significant to me. But for me, there are fixed hierarchy of how important things are according to what I think. Like for example, the person or people that I think are very important to me that I can not stay without. You may be thinking that this word can't describe a person, but for me this word is the main source of my happiness. It has changed my life and today I feel I am very lucky being born right here in this century meeting people like you and many more who are yet to come. 


ThankYouuuuuuu!
