Tears of tigers

The book I'm reading is tears of a tiger by Sharon M. Draper. On page 63 there is this amazing quote and it says," it's dark where I am and I cannot find the light. There are shadows all around me and my heart is full of fright." I really love this quote because it's like saying no matter where I am or what I do I'm always going to have this fright inside me and its not going away. It also said " ..I cannot find the light.." This really stood out to me because to me it meant like no matter what I do I can't find the happiness I had before. It's also like saying I can't find the key to life anymore because without the light then what can you see now?

A gift that I wish I can give

A gift that I wish I can give is some time with my mom because I think she deserves that she works hard and she means a lot to me and always gives me what I want so I want to repay her and show her how much she really means to me. The reason I wish I can give this gift is because my mom is a busy person so it's kind of hard but that's something I want to do.

Quote

I really like this quote because it's saying why let people who only make you feel bad about your self and make you feel lonely and sad walk all over you and have them in control of you. This relates to me because I kind of do and kind of don't let people do that because to me I feel like yes I'm going to let them because I'm so gulable and believe what everyone says and then I don't because sometimes I have to put myself before others.

Backlash

In this story there are three different points of view Lara, Bree, Syd and Liam. These characters points of views are very important because they end up making the story ten times better. In the story Lara tries to kill herself which in my opinion is the rising action. The reason for that is because the climax is that the person who was bullying her was this guy named "Christian" by Christian I mean Bree ( Lara's former best friend ) and her mother. I mean who would have guessed it would be them and especially the mother helping. She took some pills and tried killing herself but it didn't work. So everyone on Facebook starts putting things about her saying " why would she kill herself over a guy.?" And she thought they might say , " why didn't the pills work.?" She ended up trying out for cheerleader and made the team but Bree didn't and she's beefing doing cheer for like 8 years. That why she decide to make the fake page and her mom too because cheer was her life. They ended up finding out who did it and well  that ruined there life somewhat. Wonder why?

Compare and contrast - The Outsiders

In my opinion I think both the movie and book are really great, It's just a really good book and movie. In the book it says Dally has blonde hair but In the movie he has black hair. The movie came out just the way I expected it would. Like the book gave so much detail I could imagine everything. In the movie I could see the connections the boys have with each other just like the way Ponyboy says in the book. The movie did skip some chapters but it also didn't leave out any important details for information.

The Future of Us

My book is called The Future of Us it's fiction but it's a really amazing book. There are two main characters, their names are Josh and Emma. The book is set in 1996 but it has some interesting about our lives today. In this book Josh and Emma used to be such closed friends but things changed when Emma had rejected Josh. Josh had came over Emma's house to give her this CD-ROM it's a CD that gives you hundred free hours on the computer. One day she had to sign up for this thing to get started, with her email and a password. When she signed in, it went to this page called "Facebook." The crazy thing is that Facebook wasn't even created till several years later. She calls Josh over so he can see, he ends up thinking its a joke. But, he finally realizes it's not, in Facebook it tells them their future like who they are going to marry and who they will become. Once Josh sees who he is going to marry he ends up believing it. In the future Josh marries this girl called Sydney Mills, she's one of the prettiest girls in school and very popular and Josh is happy about him being married to her one day. But everything ends up changing when Emma and Josh start messing with their futures.  Emma and Josh's friendship gets kind of ruined once again. But Josh realizes he still has feelings for Emma. She is to busy chasing after the "Hottest" guy in school but what if she doesn't realize Josh is the one she needs? Will they ever get to be with eachother?
