Two Completely Different Books With Such Similar Characters

I will be comparing and contrasting these two characters from two different books. Hayley is from the book "The Impossible Knife Memory" and then we have Gaby from the book "The Pregnacy Project" one comparison that has to do with both of these characters is they both work for what they believe in what is right. "None, it's just she's a scum sucking idiot" what this piece of evidence is showing is how the character (Hayely) believes that her use to be stepmother isn't a good person and that's what she's trying to show her consular. "I also wanted to start a discussion about stereo types and statics" what this eveidence is stating is how Gaby believed that being judged and other issues like people talk about other people was a huge situation and she wanted to put a lot of work in to be fight for what she believed in. One contrast that they have is Hayely is a trouble maker she would get in trouble to get her point across. "I need a ride home right now!" And the person replied "But I have physics" what this piece of evidence is showing is although she felt her dad was in danger she ditched class to get a ride home to check on her dad she did that to get her point across. Gaby didntv get into trouble to get her point across she just worked on a project to fight for what she believed in "My main goal was to get my peers to take teen Pregnacy seriously..." What this piece of eveidence is she did what she did to make a difference and get her point across in a more respectful way with actions to her body and words.

She Works for What She Wants

I just started reading the book "The Impossible Knife of Memory" I will be telling you about the main character she been through a lot she doesn't like walking home because it's not near the best area but she's a daredevil but she knows not to let things bring her down. "I swallowed the fear. It's always there fear and if you don't stay on top of it,you'll drown." This pice of evidence is showing is how although she may be scared she wasn't going to allow that to stop her from going home. She doesn't like to quit and she doesn't allow anything to get in her way and that's what that piece of evidence is showing.

You Could Be There for People.But Do You Have Anyone There For You?

I'm currently reading a book called "Counting by 7's" I will be telling you about the words of the wiser that happened within the story. Willow was going through some difficulties she is special Ed and she felt that she cares about others more than others cared about her. Willow's mom gave her advice and that was “When you care about other people, it takes the spotlight off your own drama" what she was trying to say here was sometimes you just need to think about what you need and not worry about what others need. Willow cared about people but no one was ever there for her the way she was there for other people.

We All are Capable of Making a Change

• How can you make a difference in the world? What stregnths can you have to make a difference? One way I could make a difference in the world is by starting a clothing drive for kids that are in need for clothing from Africa to homeless people people. The stregnths I can have to do this is being able to speak infront of people and have them know what's going on and why we need to make this change. I can collect the clothing that is being donated and put them into boxes and have them shipped to Africa and I could ship them myself to the homeless that are located where I live.

Think about What You Have

I read the book "I Will Always Write Back" I think the theme of this book was not everyone has what you have others would kill to have to you have but they don't. "...But then school does not have the funds to send letters anymore" what this pics of evidence is showing is whould kids in American schools deal with money troubles? Barely because the country alone knows how to balance money although the citizens of the country may not the offices such as the government,president and so forth know how to balance money in Africa. "Nation and I began working after school to feed our family" what this piece of evidence is proving is kids in America that are twelve or less aren't the ones that have to fend for their families it's their parents that do but kids in different areas may have to do that and balance school at the same time.

My First Memoir...

The book I read that is a memoir is called, "The Pregnancy Project" within this memoir the main character went through a lot of tough questioning. "Would this wreck what I'd built up over the years? Would teachers see me differently,grade me differently? Would my friends whisper behind my back? What role did others' reactions have on the outcome of my young mother hood?" what this evidence is showing is all the tough questions that Gaby went through before making her big decision about the project. What the evidence is also showing is the tough questions that went through her head to know if it was such a bad thing to go with or if it was something she actually wanted to go through.

Two Books That Have a Bit of Similarities But a Good Amount of Differences

The two books that I will be comparing and contrasting today for you are "I Will Always How One Letter Changed Two Lives Write Back" and "A Little Something Different." These two stories are both very similar and very different at the same time. The similar thing is they're two main characters in these books and they're both a girl and a guy in the book "I Will Always Write Back" the two main character names are Caitlin and Martin and in the book "A Little Something Different" the two main characters names are Gabe and Lea. What that paraphrase of evidence is showing is how they're two main characters from each other book and how both are a girl and a boy. But one thing that is different is "A Little Something Different" has multiple point of views and "I Will Always Write Back" has only two point of views. In the book "A Little Something different" when they had different point of views is when they would have the landmarks talk such as a bench or even a squirrel. But in the book "I Will always Writ Back" the only point of views they show are Caitlin and Martin. Another main thing that is different is "I Will Always Write Back" is a narrative nonfiction book which is told by both of the main characters and this story is based on the truth of what actually happened! While "A Little Something Different" is a fiction book but has special meaning to some of the readers. "I Will Always Write Back" gives the readers information based on what they went through and how their friendship was created. 

It Takes Two Different Point Of Views To Have More Details

The book I'm currently reading is called "I Will always Write Back" what I am going to be talking about today is the multiple point of view is in the book. In this book there is two point of views from two different people from two complete different areas in the world. But they have similar thoughts when they write to each other it's like they think the same thing they understand each other but word it differently. They both knew them writing to each other was going to be the beginning of a very long friendship. "I felt giddy,like this was the start of something big." This piece of evidence is showing how Cailtin knew that them writing letters to each other was going to turn into something huge and she was excited for it. "I really hoped we countinued to write to each other" this is showing that Martin was starting to become friends with Cailtin and he hoped that she would always reply to him. They both knew or thought they knew that their friendship was going to grow. They just thought the same but with different wording.

Sometimes You Just Realize Things

I just recently started on this book called "I Will Always How One Letter Changed Two Lives Write Back" I am currently on page sixty but,before when I first started it at the very beginning of the book on page six I found that one of the main characters Caitlin had an Aha moment! She noticed that one of her cousins dressed differently from the people she knew. She than visited the school and saw what it was like and she noticed that's how they dressed and that made her realize that not everyone is the same,people dress differently and not everyone is the same. "I was struck by how different my cousin Carolan was from me" what this evidence is showing is how she realized and was shocked how she saw stuff differently. "That trip opened my eyes to other ways of living beyond my small town." This piece of evidence is showing how she realized it's different around the world and people are different not everything is same. 

It's Something That Needs To Change

My classmates and I are working on an Argumentative Essay. We got to select the topic that we wanted to argue about and just speak about and able to speak our voices. The thing about an argumentative essay is we write about what we believe but without using ( I,me,we ect) an argumentative is not based on opinions it based on fact after facts. The topic I'm working on is "Should There Be Single Sex Classrooms" the reason I picked this topic is because I found it most interesting because people have different completely different point of views. There should not be single sex classrooms because they're going to need to work with different genders in the future if they continue to be apart from genders they aren't going to get use to being with different genders. This topic is something I have done and worked on but that's when I didn't know more about argumentative essays  and it's going to be better and more informative. 

Genocides Can We Stop It? What Are You Willing To Do To End It!

How and why do genocides happen? What can we do about it? 

 A way of how genocides happen is depending on the government and the way it is formed that could commit genocides are totalrian,Dictatorship and so forth. The reason this happens is because of society follows instead of fighting. What we can do about it is protest,we can go into war with the help of other countries. 

Do They Both Want To Be Together? Then They Both Need To Start Trying.

I just recently started the book "This Is How You Lose Her" today I will be telling you about a specific character and the questions I have for the book. One of the main characters name is Maganda so far in the book Maganda is has the I don't care attitude and it's wrong because her "boyfriend" Yunior really wants to be with her but all she continues to do is bring him down. "Why don't you leave me alone?" This is Maganda slowly but pushing him away but he doesn't want to leave her! "My Maganda started turning into another Maganada. Who didn't want to sleepover as much or scratch my back when I asked her to." What this is showing is Maganda not trying as hard as she did before and just pushing away farther from their relationship. The questions I have for this book so far is is Maganda noticing how she is treating Yunior? Does she even want to be in this relationship anymore? Should Yunior be the one to stop trying? I hope to see in the future of the book to see Maganda actually try and just realize what she wants is right in front of her! 

We Aren't That Similar When It Comes To Our Adversity But We aren't That Different Either.

The adversity Anne Frank faced were something I or anyone would ever want to go through. Her situations were just so surreal they were something that not many people understand and think about on a regular basis. Her difficulties made most people think about what they have taken for granted and it's just makes people realize that they aren't always going to have their family for two long but while they do they should cherish every moment they have with them. Her difficulties make you wonder if you when you actually say "I can't wait to move out and get away from my family" is something you actually mean? Nobody really understands that type of thought but I feel like I do when I tell my mom I'm going to move far away I don't think about it I just say it but her diary made me realize if I actually mean it. She actually lost her family I kinda understand because I've felt like I've lost my family them being there for me or just listening to me but her diary made me realize that I am lucky to have my family to have a family that loves and cares for me.

One Terrible Catastrophe That Changed America Forever

I think the reason people stood by and watched this happen was because they felt as if it wasn't them getting attacked so not to worry about them. They though to keep their distance and worry about themselves and only themselves. I think what inspired others to stand up to the Nazis was them knowing that they wouldn't want to be in that situation so they're made it their most to protect the ones that went through it. I know I would've been an up stander the reason is because I know that I wouldn't want to be apart from my family and I wouldn't want to be miss treated. So why should someone else be? I know to put others needs before my own which is why I would also make sure they're safe and sound. Nobody should be treated that way for believing in certain things. 

Started Off A Little Shy.

At the very beginning of the book "A Little Something Different" one of the main characters named Gabe was really shy. Gabe wasn't really the best at starting up a conversation or even keeping a conversation going all he would do is nod,shake his head and just maybe even give a little shrug. He wasn't that good at giving out school presentations because he would just panic about speaking in front of the entire class. He knew it wasn't a good thing because he knew or thought people wouldn't understand why he was so shy. But later on in the book he does become less to himself and he starts to talk more and starts to feel more comfortable while giving out school presentation."Do you want to,um,maybe,um,you can say no,of course. You would maybe,if you wanted to,sit with me?" What this piece of evidence is showing is Gabe actually talking to Lea and finally being able to ask her to sit with him is showing that his shyness is slowly going away. "He's gotten better at sharing this semester. He's not the same kid he was when he stood up there back in fall" this piece of evidence is sowing how Gabe has learned to just be a little less shy and has gotten better at communicating with others. I saw this character develop during the book and that's what I enjoyed.

My Go To

One place where I want to travel to is California. The reason I would love to travel to Cali is because it has a good amount of land marks. For instance I would love to go and see the hollywood boulevard Stars because I could be able to see legends from music artist to actors and actresses. I would also like to go to the Orcale Arena where the Golden State Warriors play and just watch a game. Another reason I would like to travel to California is for the beaches I've never seen an ocean before and it would be nice to see an ocean. I would also like to see the Hollywood sign and take a picture there because that's one huge land mark in California. I would also enjoy the plane ride and I would like it if it was with my mom because she needs to go on a vacation.

What I Wonder

One question I have for the story Like No Other is did Jaxson and Devorah ever date? Or not because of their differences? The reason I'm asking these questions is because in the it states "Our dates have to be like a dozen because of the normal dates." When I read that it made me wonder if it was to much for them both to handle? Or did they both end up being happy with each other?

Like No Other My Character Devorah

I recently just started reading this book called Like No Other by Una LaMarche. Devorah is Yichud and her family is very religious and they raised her to be as well. "Are you religious? Um yes" this piece of evidence is showing how Devorah is religious. "My niece she could be gone because of the power outage!" What this evidence is showing is how Devorah often worries and sometimes it's good but most of the time it's bad. Devorah is also really quiet and she just doesn't communicate well. I hope on seeing my character develop for example to talk to more people and also to just stay calm and not always jump to conclusions. 

Its Time 2016

My New Years resolution is to work harder in school. A way that I will be able to do this is asking questions about when I don't understand what's going on or when I just wonder if what I wrote down is right. Another thing I can do is coming in the morning or after school and working on what I have struggled on or what I understand a little but I feel like I need to completely understand. Another way I could do this is by actually doing my work in class and not getting off task. This is apart of my biggest goal and it's to be succeful. These each mean something to me and both are my two biggest goals. What I'm excited about this year is starting at my newest high school and just meeting new people.
