Life

Today wasn’t the best day for me, but I’m still living so I can’t complain. I learn new things from people everyday and it just builds me up as a person . Besides how my day went I just pray everything goes back normal corona has literally taken over everything.

Monday 23 March 2020

So far my break has been boring due to the fact that  we have to stay home , although I still have been going to work . Other than home and work I haven’t done anything really . I soon hope that this virus will go away so everything can go back normal

The Kite runner

In chapter 1 we find out that something happened to Amir at the age of 12 which has made him what he is today.He received a phone call from Rahim Khan, who is in Pakistan, last summer. He asks Amir to come to Pakistan and see him.Once off the phone he takes a walk in the park, noticing 2 red kites which remind him of Hassan. starting with chapter 2  Amir reminisces about his childhood with Hassan and how they used to be troublemakers
We are given a detailed description of Hassan, and find out his is a loyal friend.Hassan is a Hazara and Amir is a Pashtun. Amir finds out that the Hazara had an uprising which was brutally suppressed by the Pashtuns.In chapter 3 We get a description of Baba, who comes across a little scary. He does all the things people say he cannot: design and build an orphanage, marry well, become a successful business man etc... also Amir tries to impress his father, but thinks his talents (reading and poetry) are not considered manly enough by Baba.

Mother to son / son to mother

Today we went over two poems , the two poems we went over were some what similar but not exactly. They both had different meanings but similar if that makes since . I enjoyed reading the poems today ... I also love the concept we have before going over a poem . Mr. Rease makes us brainstorm before reading the actual poem , this helps us understand the poem better

Nigger / nigga

We went over these two words and discussed on how they are alike and different, also where they come from . These two words can be found very offensive to many but slightly offensive to few

Music

today we talked about what music meant to us and how music makes us feel . To me music is my escape from everything ... when I’m going through hard times like right now I just listen to music to get my mind off certain things , when I feel like I don’t have anyone to talk to I just go listen to music . I tend to listen to songs pertaining to what I’m going through , even though it makes me feel even worse It’s just the feeling of Being able to relate to the music. Music helps me calm my nerves and just clear my mind I honestly don’t know what I would do if we didn’t have music

Maya Angelou

Today in class we went over another Maya Angelou poem , to me these poems are easier to comprehend and understand .The main question of the day “happiness is a decision”. Her poems help me think back into the old days and how they celebrated
