post 5/5

    Such foul a fair a day I have not seen. Macbeth says this in the very beginning of the book. It becomes ironic to think about as we get further into the book. He is talking about how he is finally out of war then later in the play he starts murdering people.
    Macbeth becomes a terrible person. He starts to act different when he is faced with true power in the book. He is told by the witches that he will be king so he starts to want to do anything to get there. He even murders someone who he was always loyal too. Which is a different person than we saw with the line"Such foul a fair a day I have not seen."

    I am ready for summer. It seems way longer than it really is. It's three weeks away and I am so ready. I have been so anxious to get out of school. No offense to any of my teachers but it has been very stressful this year.
    I feel like this year went by way faster than past years have gone even with all the stress I have been dealing with. My mom always told me that would happen, saying that as you get older your years get shorter. But i am so ready to be done.

#5 women are more compassionate and less violent than men

  I think that statement is partially true. Women as a whole are more compassionate than men but there are women that are more aggressive than some men. Men are just I guess naturally aggressive. They want to fight and brake things most of the time. Women in stereotypical situations are calmer and more "lady like".

#7 Some things are destined or fated to happen

   I agree with that statement one hundred percent. I am a huge believer in fate and what is destined to happen. If something is going to happen, it's going to happen. It's just how that works. You can't stop destiny or really affect it's path. You can do small things that may alter or change destiny than just a little bit but mostly, it's just DESTINY.

The Deep Blue Struggle
Splash! The coolness of
the water hits me and runs up my spine.
I wait for others so I can go down.
It's time
I'm sinking.
The peaceful water rushes over my head as I go down
I feel cooled and relaxed, I'm weightless down here 
I'm carefree
I start the long leg strokes that propel me forward each time
each time becoming harder than the last
over time my breathing becomes faster 
I struggle to keep my legs moving and start to feel heavy
we are getting close to the boat
I start to slow, I can't keep swimming with the same speed as everyone else
They are all so much bigger and more experienced, they have been in this situation so many times 
I just can't keep up.
We're there
we start our way back up
we're up. Finally
I inflate the vest and let the current bring me into the boat, the instructor helps me into the boat, I drop the gear onto the seat
first dive down 
only one left

    In this song there are a few pieces of figurative language. There is assonance in the song.
The assonance is the repetition of the long O sound from a lot of the words. One paragraph in particular has it multiple times.He says, “Why am I soft in the middle now?
Why am I soft in the middle?
The rest of my life is so hard
I need a photo opportunity
I want a shot at redemption
Don’t want to end up a cartoon
In a cartoon graveyard”
Bonedigger, bonedigger
Dogs in the moonlight
Far away my well-lit door
Mr. Beerbelly, Beerbelly
Get these mutts away from me
You know I don’t find this stuff
Amusing anymore.

2/3 post two

    For my research I am a little bit concerned because it is hard for me to get my paper long enough. I am also having trouble thinking of a thesis. I am having a good time writing my paper. I don't want to say I have enjoyed the topic because it is so sad and depressing but I have enjoyed reading about.
    The topic is ver interesting in why it was made. There is no solid information as for why but there are estimates and theories. They are really weird when it comes to some of the theories but others make a lot of since.

2/3 POST ONE

                                                                       My Snow Days
    My snow day will start by sleeping till noon. I would get up and start my emergency work. School will be canceled at least wednesday too so i will do work for that day too. The next day I would wake up a little earlier and eat breakfast. Then i would probably go and watch Netflix until lunch. Then more until dinner. it's really cold so I'm feeling lazy.  
    Thursday I wake up and school is canceled again. It;s early in the morning so i go back to sleep. I wake up and practically do the same thing as tuesday. I would need to do more work since school was canceled for today too. I would do the work watch some t.v. and get ready for school the next day.

1/27 post one and reading times

    My topic is on the concentration camp of Auschwitz. It is definitely one of the worst concentration camps. It started as a Medical camp. They would do experiments on the  prisoners of Auschwitz. Then it turned into a death camp used for mass killing. The camp was so populated that they turned to killing hundreds at a time.

     My topic is on the concentration camp of Auschwitz. It is more dangerous and well known concentration camps. It started as a Medical camp which is a camp where the prisoners where treated as lab rats. They would do experiments on the  prisoners of Auschwitz. Then it turned into a death camp used for mass killing. The camp was so populated that they turned to killing hundreds at a time.

1/13 post 2

    My history annotated bibliography is very important and that is why people should really pay attention to this topic. As people say, history repeats itself. My topic is the Auschwitz concentration camp. It was known as the worlds largest death camp and it killed more people than other other one. It had medical testing and had the harshest punishments of torture.

    This week I plan on fixing and revising my annotated bibliography and putting it onto noodle tools. All I need to do is that and then I can get ready to start writing the paper. Which  to be honest i am kind of nervous for. We will see how it goes.

1/13 post 1 Madison's scenario

    I am in the book divergent. I am in the scene were everyone is choosing were to go. I am way far back and have a hole lot of time left before I am up to choose. I am waiting and thinking were i should go and i am having trouble deciding. I think i have narrowed it down to two but I can't rule anything out yet. It is going to have to be a last second choice. It's here i am up next.

    I get up there should I stay in amity or go to dauntless. I take the knife and slowly slide it across my hand and feel the knife break my skin, i feel the sting and flinch away. I am thinking, I can't decide, it is to much to take. Should I stay with my family or go were i think as best. The choice is driving me crazy I close my eyes and pick. I'm right back were i started, at home.
