The grate gatsby

Chapter 7
What's crazy is that Gatsby calls off his party and that's how he would lure in daisy to come see him.Its when nick goes for lunch to Tom and daisy and when he Jordan and gatsby there and gets all unhappy because the baby is real and he did not think it was true.This chapter to me was up and because some part of the chapter were happy then it would go back down and I hope that everything works out for Gatsby.

The great gatsby

Chapter 6
What I like about this chapter is that its about Gatsby life and all thus things that he did in his early life. What's crazy is the story that's going around about Gatsby and I think that's sad. What else is crazy is that nick see Tom at gatsby house haveing a drink that is crazy because wants daisy.What's sad is when daisy and tom go to a party and they leave and gatsby feels sad because daisy did not have fun at the party. So that's what I like and dislike about the this chapter.

The great gatsby

Chapter 5
What I think is funny when gatsby is being nice to nick and telling him to do all of these things with him just so he can invite daisy over but that's nice of gatsby to do all of that. What's nice of nick to do is help gatsby with all of the plans that he has for daisy. What's sad is when gatsby has the metting with daisy and gatsby goes to nicks house and tells him it was a bad idea to do all the things that they did.What I don't get is why nick is part of all of this I think he should be in the background of this part of the story.

The great gatsby

Chapter 4
What was cool about this chapter is that nick and gatsby take a trip to new york to have lunch. But was wired about the trip to me is that gatsby is telling his life story to nick and telling him where he is from and how much money he had as a kid. The other thing that was wired is how gatsby is speeding and a cop pulls him over and he just shows the cop a white card and let's gatsby go that was wired.What's crazy is when nick runs into Jordan barker in new York and she tells him that gatsby is in love with daisy that is crazy because she is married something is going to happen so that's what I like about this chapter and there mant things that were wired.

Chapter 3 the great gatsby

What I like about this chapter is that gatsby becomes know around new York because all he does is throw parties so people can come to. What is weird is when nick goes to one of the parties and he runs into jordan baker and he hears all these things about Gatsby and what he did in his life. What I think is cool about this is that this man gatsby throw all these parties and an one can come into the party and I think that is so cool because sometimes you can go into parties like that.What was funny to me is when nick is walking one and he see owl eyes trying to get his car out of a ditch so that's what I like about this chapter.

Fear of reading my essay

1. The reson that i dont want to share because if there is something bad in the essay then many people might laugh at my writing and i dont like when people make fun of me or talk about me on how i write or read.

2. The most that i fear about is the garmmer in the essay that its going to be so bad that people are going to talk about how bad my writing is and im not but I just use bad grammer all the time you can ask people who have read y essay and the can tell you the same thing.

3. That many people will like it and I will get alot of good saying about my essay and people wont care about my writing and will enjoy it.

4. The worse thing that could happen is that it could be so bad that people will just make me stiop reading it because its so bad in grammer and writing and bad spelling that is what the worse thing that hwppens.

Free Write

The cold makes me want to go into a room and get in front of a fire place and it makes me want to go to sleep and after I do all of that I will get something warm to drink so I can get away from the cold and not be all nice and cold and dont go to sleep.

Frederick Douglass

I think that I did a great job on the start of the essay but I needed to work on a few more things on the essay like the middle of the essay and do put more details into the essay to make the reader know what I'm trying to say and get the point. But I think that i did a great job on the end of the essay I think that the person that read the essay got the point that I was trying to say in the essay. I could work on a few things to make my next essay better than this one I hope I can make the next essay better than this one.

The Awakening

This was a very good story to show how women were treated at the time era and it was not very good for them at all. One of the points in the story that it showed was at the start of the story when the husband said he was going to play pool and the wife asked when he would be home and he said he did not know and that is showing that many of the men at the time did not care about their wifes but there was the boy that wanted to stay with the wife and talk to her and this is showing that some of the people at the time did care about the women but this book is trying to tell poeple that women need to have a role in the world and work for it at all times. But what was sad about the story was the lady husband died and it was sad to see her have to go alone in the world at the time. But in all of the story I thought it was a good story and I would tell people to read this story so they know what it was about.

The jungle 29,30

Chapter 29
It's cool to see that jurgis is wants to know what the party is about and that's cool because he wants to know. It's cool that Ostrinski is sHowing jurgis about every thing and he is telling jurgis that workers need to get back and need to gain “class consciousness” so that they can organize in favor of their interests.
Chapter 30
It's cool to see that jurgis is telling his family about socialism and that's cool because he wants people to know about it and. So what's the whole book about I like it's about socialism.

The jungle 27,28

Chapter 27
I think it's sad to see that Jurgis is starting to beg for a job and that sad but what is hard for Jurgis is that the strike ends and many other people are looking for a job and that sucks foe for him because he does not have a job rite now and with this it's hard for him to get one. I think it's sad to see that he has to go homeless again man this guy has so much on his plate it's sad to see that his life is like this. I think it was funny when Jurgis was sleeping and the lady kick him out for snore I kind of laugh a little. I think it's sad when Jurgis goes to see his family that the police take them and he can only talk to them for a little bit that is so sad because he has not see them for a long time. Jurgis went back to jail.
Chapter 28
That's cool when Jurgis gives the false name and one knows that he attack connor. It's sad when jurgis hears that ladies are forces to work that is sad to hear because that is not fair to ladies. I think it's sad to see jurgis back on the streets because he has no place to stay warm and it's sad to see that he has to look for a place to stay. What's cool is Jurgis tells people about the corrupt practices of big capitalists and that is showing in my eyes that he wants to stop all the things that is going on around packing town. So in these chapter it was sad but it's kind of starting to look good for Jurgis because people are starting to see the same things he is.

The Jungle 26

Chapter 26
It's cool to see that jurgis still has his job as a hog trimmer but, it's sad to see that the union and the packing factories are not getting along the works go on strike; so that makes a lot of people out of jobs at this point. Jurgis then gets a job as one of the bosses that of the killing beds and that is cool to see because he can kind of run the works that and part of the killing bed that is cool to see. What's cool to see is the packers are starting to give fresh meat to the people because they don't want they toturn on them and, that is so cool to see that the people care about what they are eating and it's good that it's come to this in the story. What's crazy is that jurgis attacks Conner and he goes back to jail so to me that is crazy because he just got out of jail and now he is back in ther that is sad to see what is happen to him in kind of a good time in his life. Therfore, what this chapter is trying to show people is the way that the corruption of the system and that is sad because many people did not know about this whole thing that was going on in packing town at the time and that is sad to see this going on in the story.

23,24,25,26

Chapter 23
I think is crazy that jurgis goes back but he gets a job digging tunnels and the winter hits him but he thinks that the job will last him all winter so he spends all of his money on alcohol but it's sad that he breaks his arm working that is so sad because of all the hardship that jurgis has gone though in his life so far.
Chapter 24
It's sad to me that jurgis has to find heat in bars I think that is sad but it's cool to see that he finds a drunk man that is dress good and he invite jurgis to his house that is sweet what is crazy is that the man that he is with is the son of the man that got jurgis the job in packing town that is crazy to see that happen but it's cool that he did that for him.
Chapter 25
It's sad that jurgis is so poor that if he show the bill people would think that he would have taken it whats sad about this is that jurgis is back in jail for ten days that is so sad to see all of the bad things that happen to him in this chapter.
Chapter 26
It's crazy of all the jobs that jurgis has done and now the people are not working and that is kind of cool to seer because the people are fighting for what they want and jurgis is right they helping to get a better job and get paid better then he is right now. So that is what I like about this chapters and wht at I dislike about them.

Chapter 20,23

Chapter 20
I think that it's good jurgis is trying to find a job for his son and I think it's a great thing that he wants to live for his son. The other thing that he can't find a job in all of packing town and it's sad that jurgis is blacklist so he can't find a job at all but it's so cool that he finds a guy from the same union and that he finds a job for him I'm factory harvesting machines and it's so cool to see jurgis gets a job.
Chapter 21
What I think is sad about this chapter is that the kids wages have to kept the family so jurgis can look for a job and tha is so sad to me that the kids at a young age have to do that. And what else is sad is that they have to go to the dump and look for food and to think that what America was like at this time of hardship. But what's coo,a bout this is when they are looking for the food they meet a lady and she is getting married to man that runs a stell mill and makes a little for jurgis to get a job and he takes it to him and he gets a job and that's cool to see him keep looking for a job sweet! It's sad to see that jurgis can only see his kids on the weekends and the other thins is Antanas is died and that is so sad to hear.
Chapter 22
Its sad to see jurgis like this because he looks at her dead body and just walks away and hides in a railcart and just to see all of the of the emotion that he has is so sad to read about but the good thing about this is that a farmer sell jurgis a meal and that's good to see him eat and a place to sleep and the thing is jurgis gets a new job and works for the farmer.What's sad about this is jurgis as to get meal by stealing them but it's for his family and that's what he has to do. So that is what I like and dislike about these chapters.

The jungle 7-20

What I like about this part of the book is all of the things that are showed from the dark. Like jurgis tells the man who sold the house to him that he wants him to show all the things that are hidden in the house. What I don't like is that in packingtown that the workers are working harder but the pay got cut and that is not fair to the workers. What's sad is that juries gets hurt and he can't work for three months that's so sad because at this time money is gold and everyday counts. What I kind of like is that juries finds that most of the meat is bad and it's made into sausage and has gross that people it that meat but I'm glad that juries knows about it. So that's what I like about this put of the book but it was gross.

Slaughter House- Five

The book that I'm reading is called Slaughter House-Five and I'm have been lost in the text of the reading so far. One of the things that got to me is how Yon Yonson is writing a book about him be in a camp in Dresden and that just gets me because the next thing you know that he is talking about the friend he is going to talk to about things that happen in the war. The other thing that is crazy is how he is writing a book in a book and but what is the point of him talking about what happen to him and his friend at the camp that these two were at. But what makes me sad his how they are talking about the war and all they could remember was the bad things that they saw or seen and the just makes me think that whole time that this thing that happen to them makes me sad that they had to see this at a young age. But what makes me laugh is Mary Yon friends wife because she got mad at him because she did not like the books or movies about war and that made me laugh because she was so mad she could not stay in one place and would come in and out of the room to see if her husband was not drinking. So that is what happen to far in the story I don't know how this is going to turn out because it sounds like the people that were in the slaughter house are not going to have a great time and Yon is not going to finish the book at all.

The Jungle 4,5,6,7

What I liked at this part of the book is how it show jugis and how he works and what he likes to work for someone. The other thing that I like is he works so hard all day and he only gets 17 dollars and this is showing how the people back in the day would work so hard but get little for what they did, and what else is crazy is that jugis would carry things for his house on his hard and I don't get that at all is that the only way that he could carry things to his house. So what is the story going so far it's all over but it's giving the point is how these people are working so hard but getting so little and this is showing me has a person that I can work hard and not get paid but these people worked harded and got so littl so that is what I thought of this part of the book.

The Jungle 1,2,3

The first part of the book was all over,and it just from one story to a new and I didn't get the whole thing about the beer and the people that were in the story so far. The other thing is all of the big names in the story and how it just talks about many different names and not just one. What I did like about the first few chapters that I read was the story that it's focus on and the meaning of it's not just like other books it's telling what this people and what they do for a living. The thing is about this is it jumps from one thing the next and I lost o few times because of that but so far I like the story a lot and I can't wait to read more.

My essay

The topic that i pick for the essay was why should the United states go to war to preserve the union I think the big point that I would pick would have to be hold the Union because if that falls then the people cant do it and its going to just mess up big time, and the way that i will prove that is by showing some of the ideas that the country should of had when they went into and see how they could have held as one in the war and what they could have done to end it faster then it was. And the other thing is to stop slaves in the south and make them free to do what they want so that is my topic that i have picked.
