Life is Beutiful

The movie Life is Beautiful and the readings had a lot of connections such as when the kid in the movie goes to this camp with his father. Although they end up bringing the kids in this place where they shower them but not really. They end up killing then snd burning them. In the readings we did it talked about how they bring these kinds into camps and some of them end up surviving but some end up dying or burned. Another connection I saw from the movie and the readings was where they would put them into these big crates and giving a very small amount of space since it was very crowded and disgusting. I remember when I saw this once picture where they were getting inside these crates and it was very crowded and very sad because of the faces of people. In the description of the picture it had said that some of them would die on the way because they were not given food or water.

One of things that are similar about the mood and tone of the movie and the readings is that it was both made you feel some sort of way.(sad, down, understanding) The reading gave information and describe how people felt or been treated. The mood was really sad when you started to comprehend  on how people were mistreated and how they killed millions of people. In the movie the mood/tone made you feel like you were apart of it because you get so attached that it gets you in your feels. The movie gave a really heartwarming but sad visual. The movie mood made me alsomost cry on what happened with the family.

In the movie the life is beautiful is shown that no matter how bad things are you can always see it in a positive way. In the movie the father and his kid were taken to this camp. The father tells the kid that this is all like a game so the kid wouldn't be scared or worried. He told him they get points for what they make them do. The one who gets the most points wins a real tank but you have to follow directions. This shows that if your in a bad situation you can imagine things that can make it positive and not have to worry to much. Just how the father told the kid this was a game so he didn't have to worry about what was going on.Another was life was shown beautiful is that when the women was going to marry some guy she didn't even love but then stuff went down and the weightier that liked her. Turned out that she liked him back and they left together in a horse and later on got married.

Butterfly

IT ALL DEPENDS ON HOW YOU LOOK AT IT

I.
Terezin is full of beauty.
It's in your eyes now clear
And through the street the tramp
Of many marching feet I hear.

In the ghetto at Terezin,
It looks that way to me,
Is a square kilometer of earth
Cut off from the world that's free

II.
Death, after all, claims everyone,
You find it everywhere.
It catches up with even those
Who wear their noses in the air.

The whole, wide world is ruled
With a certain justice, so
That helps perhaps to sweeten
The poor man's pain and woe.

A Street Cat Named Bob

This book is about a guy named James Bowen. He lived a pretty normal life, like most of us would. He moved from Australia to London. He became homeless and was a heroin addict. Soon something changed his life completely. He found this Cat near where he lived and soon they became best friends. He decided to keep him and name him Bob. Soon James realized he had someone else to care of instead of himself so he had to work hard to feed Bob and himself. He works in this business called the Big Issue and everytime he would work there people ask him about Bob.

This book A Street Cat Named Bob by James Bowen teaches a really great lesson that I learned. Towards the end of the book he said “Everybody needs a break, everybody deserves that second chance. Bob and I had taken ours.” I think this quote from the book really teaches us a lesson. About how people should have a second chance in life. Many people might be struggling in life having a hard time. I think that people should have a second chance to betr their life situation or something good might happen to them like James. A street cat he decided to keep and name Bob reallly changed his life and how he had to work hard to take care of Bob and himself. 

Hope Solo my story

The book is about a soccer player named Hope Solo. She started of playing in the field as a forward but then a goalkeeper. Hope was one of #1 goal keeper of the USA soccer players. Hope was the starter for goalkeeping along with Bri which she was in the second half. After playing for a while her dad died and that really affected how she played on the field. She then got in an argument with one of her teammates and that really ruined her career. Although she resolved that but got injured really badly on her shoulder.

This book really inspired me to practice more soccer and be get better at it and not give up. I really think that this book is good for people who like soccer and like to read about soccer players. Also how their lives began from little till now. Hope's life was pretty rough but that may not be shown on the field but it was pretty sad. I think that people don't really know the history behind soccer players and it's really interesting to learn about them because it might inspire you and look at them differently. Maybe even look up to them. Although Hope Solo life wasn't the best but it really surprised me how a famous soccer players life was sad and hard.

Propaganda

I thinks that this piece of propaganda is trying to say that Germany will take defeat and determine the future. I think that's why in the picture their raising flags. This propaganda audience is intend to the people who worship Hitler and think they might take over because they kill people and it motivates them knowing that they can win. I think that this propaganda really emphasizes the fact that their gonna rule the future since that's what the poster says. This can be affective because some people might think they can actually take over and it gets to their head and this can really lead children to believe it because they don't know much.

Advice From My Brother

The best advice that I had ever been given to if I recall was by my brother. My brother has always given me advice when I'm stressed out or worried about something. He gives me advice on school and how he doesn't want me to go through the same experience he had. He tells me to try hard at school and not give up. My brother always supports me it's everything and reminds me of how I should really try hard. To be successful in life because he waited to the last second to do things and he doesn't want me falling into the same thing he did when he was in high school.
