The Wave

“The past is never dead, it’s not even past.”

1) I think the quote is strait forward, meaning that what we call the past is constantly repeating it’s self. Our Action and decisions that were made in the past are what our future is based on.

2) The whole book is based around this quote. Mr. Ross showed a movie in his class and tried an experiment, trying to bring the past back so that the kids would understand more and experience what the Nazi went through. By doing this the whole school got sucked into it deeper than he expected and created a huge mess. The past is never dead in this book, it’s like they lived on the past. The past can never die we talk about it, and we still go back to it to get answers.

What should you do?

Have you ever been forced to join something against your will?

Well I have never been forced to join anything as far as i can remember that was against my will, but I m sure that I have joined things by perpresure seen that my friends have join or it’s something that everybody has. Everbody is responsible for their own actions, and you must question what you do.

How should we behave if we see someone being tauted or bullied by a group of people?My truly opinion on this is that we should try to STOP the bulling or tauted. Or you should get help from someone who can stop it (teacher) or try to stop the bulling by yourself.

Should we try not to get involved or should we intervene? For me I would most likely get involved if my friend is been bullied, or the situation became violet then I would get an adult. Most issues get involved but be aware of it, if you think it has gotten too far try to get HELP!!

We just know that the fight ain’t fair

I remember the days
Before you entered my shores
I was strong in my ways
Had my own life to live for
Or so it seemed
Until i lay down my head
And woke up in this dream

No one to blame, No place to hide,
Is it a day dream or reality to what
Meets the eye
Heat, dust, sweat, tears, dripping from
Hundreds of men across the street
How long? How long will this go on
in the end what’s our reward

working for nothing
Dying for the family
Sweating for the 1 dollar bill a day.
They would switch us from company
To company like picking there
Designed cloth for a party

Our boss installed big promises in our heads
But none of them came true

The rest of use all misunderstood
They say we stand for nothing and
there’s no way we ever could
It’s not that we don’t care
We just know that the fight ani’t fair

Fighting for our rights,
Fighting for our dignity,
Fighting for our promises and
Fighting for our goals
We just know that the fight ani’t fair

think about this

“we are all monkeys […] dance, monkeys, dance […] the monkeys draw a lot of imaginary lines in the dirt […] the monkeys are polluting and living there trace like there is no toommorow […] the monkeys like to pretend that everything is just fine […] the monkeys don’t want to be monkeys, they want to be something else, but they are not” Found here

I would like to accomplish a variety number of things in this blog like expand my knowledge of the Internet world and how blogs are used to communicate, share ideas, and look at what others are saying. In June i want to see this blog more than my class work, like i would use it to write comments post “educational” things LoL and all my work showing how i have improved. I envision this blog know as a place i can see my classmates work and give positive comments on my pointview. I think i m working forward to something i can come back and look at and say these were fun times. or even keep on using the blog letter in life.

This week in class.. 4/3/08

We talked about aaahm about our blogs and made a google account. This account allows you to be aware of what your classmates are posting or writing. We also talked about how to peer-edit our poems and how Mr. R was proud about them because he think we got the idea.

I learned that everybody has this triangle that measured how much power you have and you rank your self. It measured how much power i had over certain things and what has power over me. Also learned how to comment on other people blogs because i had no clue how to even read my own comments.

I wanted to say well comment on the quote “Power corrupts Absolute power corrupts absolutely”. Got me thinking that this is what happens everyday people with power would us their power to the maximum and when they get Absolute power he/she would be already corrupted plus he/she would start to corrupt everyone around them. But this is also not the case with everyone because they’re people out there that have absolute power and are using it the write way.

I day dream about when someone has absolute power. What goes on around their head? and remember the quote that said “It’s businese”.

Today in class…

Today in class we talked about why we write. We came up with reflection, communication, and expression. I find writing hard sometimes because you actually have to think and structure what your putting on the black peace of paper. We also analyzed a poem written by Woody Harrelson called “Thoughts From Within”. I found the poem quiet interesting because the writer kept on pointing fingers at people and forgetting that there are three more still pointing back at him. Plus he had an a twist on how he wrote the poem.

I learned that writing is not a punishment that teachers give us. The basic of a poem how to construct it, and that you can get your tittle of the poem from one of the lines out of your poem, but the line has to give the topic of the poem. Also learned that Mousauto is an agricultural company that owns 90% of the companies that we buy food from.

I daydream about how this blog thing is going to give me problems in using it. Plus it was Thursday we are out of school in…..

i wanted to say not much from what i already said in class. I guess that’s a good thing and a bad thing.

Other comments i realized that when talking about our world and how some parts of it is taking the wrong direction, i would find myself wanting to do something and realizing we all contribute in destroying it.

What do i want to accomplish? What do i want to see here in June? What am i working towards? How do i envision it now?

Hello world!
