Down The Rabbit Hole

The link that I chose from the article on John Steinbeck was "how we humanize each other". I choose to click only this link because I thought it seemed interesting and that made me focus only on that article. Something I learned from this link was that we are all humans and we should treat each other with respect and not be judging each other.

Notes from todays lecture

What you wear or what you look like makes people want to trust u or not. This is a hig deal when you are giving a speech since u want people to believe you.

How To Get To Graceland

My experience sort of sligns with the Paul Simon video. I say this because i grew up listening to music every morning because my brothers would put music everytime they would get ready for school. This got me really into music so i decide to download the ones i liked the mostvand listen to them all the time. To this day i still enjoy listening to the same type of music and maybe in the future i might make my own song and have someone sing it!! I compare to the video because paul got interested in a type of music because he would always listen to a red caset recording with music in it and so will i but i would hear the music because of my brothers. 

Whats love got to do with it?

My story of the meal I love the most is not that interesting but here it goes. I remember eating some tacos dorados de pollo a while back but it never tastes the same. I left to Mexico for 1 whole month and all I ate was beans and mole and all sorts of Mexican food which is also really good. I came back home from my vacation and my mom had made the meal I really like but this time it tastes way better then before and I think it tasted better because we were all eating as a family having a good time talking about my trip. I believe that never again will these tacos taste the same as that day.

Fahrenheit 451 essay

                                                                  "Fahrenheit 451"

                        Ever heard of a firefighter that burns books?! Me neither until I read a book called " Fahrenheit 451" by Ray Bradbury. This book is filled with dynamic characters but I believe the best described character is Montag. Montag is a fireman who burns books instead of preventing fires because it is against the law to have books. Throughout the book Montag realizes that he's not happy with what he does so he decides to read books. Montag is a dynamic character and I'm going to show you how he went from burning books to end up trying to save them.

                       One good moment that shows why Montag is a dynamic character is when he comes home from work and notices that he's not happy with what he does. In the book it shows how he decides to steal a book to read it and he becomes very interested in it. I think this is a great example because he goes from burning the books to end up being curious of what they are about so he decides to do something illegal in order for him to get a book. In the next paragraph I will tell you how he ends up very interested in books and wants other people to read them too. 

                        Montag goes crazy for books and he cant stop reading them. A part in the book that describes how Montag stopped caring about everything but books was when he decided to show all of his wife's friends a book and tried to convince them to read it. His wife's friends are not convinced so they remain to be a static character. This shows how Montag does not care about the consequences and wants to show the people that reading is a good thing in a good tone and it shouldn't be illegal to have them. In the next paragraph I will tell u about how Montag ends up going for someone and asking for help because he didn't want to return the book without finishing it.

                        Montag is figuring out little by little why the government doesn't want people to have books because it limits there knowledge. He doesn't get to finish a book and he has to return it but he thinks that there are important things in the book he still needs to read. In the book he decides to go looking for the one person he knows that can help and his name is Faber. He goes looking for Faber hoping that he would have a really good plan on how to make a copy of the book. This shows how Montag is wanting to keep reading books and wants to make copies of them so that he can keep them and read them as much as he can to get the most knowledge out of them as he can. 

                          In conclusion Montag is a very smart and risk taking person. He decides to do lots of illegal things just because he believes that books are good for you and wants to prove that to the world. His decision to read a book changed his life forever. He started to enjoy reading books and wanted to read as many as he can. Montag was very brave because even though he knew that having a book was against the law he still had some kept in secret. So now you know about a firefighter that went from burning books to want to save them which is a very inspiring book. I suggest you read the book yourself to understand the true feeling of what the author of the book is trying to tell you.

                       

FAILING TO PLAN IS PLANNING TO FAIL

They are making plans to get some more books.

Montag and Faber

Montag decided to meet with Faver to discuss about what seems to be the very last bible in the world. Montag wanted to memorize it and if it was possible get a whole copy of the book.
