This chapter talks about the struggle for an education , the slaves desired a chance to go to school . Washington had tried to overcome difficulties to have knowledge for his future .He had to walk a long way and beg rides in wagons and carts , he asked for lodging at several places , but they all wanted money.Not knowing what else to do , he walked the streets and wished for one chicken leg or pie in the future .
I really like this chapter , it brought me back the poor in my country . I admire them much ;they have a great desire for knowledge although they are very poor and their passion for study make me more respect them .

The Devil wears Prada(Pg114-Pg160)
Unlike the movie, Andy and Emily are getting closer by working. Andy shows us her hard working. Actually, Emilly needs Andy, because she wants to go Paris with Miranda for fashion show. Emily felt confident that Andy was ready to handle her, and so was Andy. Here is the same scene. Miranda gave the work which is bring 'the book' to her house every day. 'The book' is a large wire-bound collection of pages as big as phonebook, in which each current issue of Runway was mocked up and laid out. Emily explained that no substantial work could get done each day until after Miranda left, because all of the art people and editorial people spent all day long consulting with her, and she changed her mind every hour. To bring the book means that
Andy already recognitied from Miranda which means she did something well. When Andy is focusing on her job, Alex(her boyfriend) feels not good for her because she is changed. Andy is always concerning about her boss Miranda and her twins and so on. As you know, Miranda calls to Andy any time that she needs help. Miranda's style is to be ready before she gets office. One day, Emily shouted to Andy that 'she is on her way in', however Andy does not get it. It means that has to be ready before she gets office. Every people who work in 'Runway' is in a hurry; chaging their shoes, taking a make-up, cleaning the office, setting the books and so on. On the other hand, the vedio shows us the scene very first. After then, Andy went to party and fashion show with Miranda. The book says about Miranda that she is crazy about her work, however Andy is smilier to her character from now on.
This weekend was really hard to read this book because I was not feel good for a while and the book was hard!!! There are so many vocabularies. I mean Andy expressed a lot of adjectives on the sentense. And I did not know Andy cancelled the oppointment with her boyfriend that much. I think that focusing on one's work is cool. Andy's style is giving me some thoughts about my future.

One day, John Lennon stated We are more famous than Jesus now. It caused a lot of problems. People can't ignore its statement.
Comment
John Lennon, stated Jesus, had confidence to be famous in the world. I think this statement was so scared. I respect him but I can't agree much with this statement.

He hread some fish tolling and blowing, he can say the different between they made noise. Then he thought about past, one time when he fish with the boy, they got a female fish, because the male fish always let the female fish feed first. The male fish was beautiful, he tried to save the female fish. The boy was very sad to killed female fish. Before the daylight, the old man fishing a new fish. He thought about boy all time.

Then a small bird came, The old man was a little bit excited, then the bired flew around the old man's head. The old man was trying to talk to bird, he asked to two questions, How old are you and Is this your first trip? The bird just looked at him all the time when the old man spoke. He found his hand was blooding, he hurt himself when he fishing. The bird had flown away, even the old man had not seen him to go. When he eating a fish he was thinking " I wish the boy was here and that I had some salt" He had a fish to eat, it is a big fish. He doesn't think he can eat that whole. After he ate fish, He looked around the sea, He feel so lonely. He is still fishing and try to get a big fish.......
Opinion:
Until now, I think that is a great book! The writer trys to use an old fishman's story to tell us some life truth! And what is loney and Die. I really like these two sentences, "But he could see the prisms in the deep dark water and the line stretching ahead and the strange undulation of the calm." "Although it is unjust, he thought. But I will show him what a man can do and what a man endures." These two sentences help me to understand a lot things. WHat is a life, and what should I do when I have difficulties or feel lonly. That is a really good book.

“Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul II” by Jack Canfield, Mark Victor Hansen and Kimberly Kirberger. Pages 100-125.
Summary:
Ann disliked Valentine’s Day because she was plain – not ugly, but not beautiful. In Valentine’s Day, she overlooked the fact that her cards were not oversized like those of the popular girls, and did not contain the love notes like those of the pretty girls. But later, in middle school, Valentine’s Day is only for the pretty and the popular girl, not for Ann. At such a time, stories of ugly ducklings that will one day turn into beautiful swans do not assuage the hurt and rejection. In Subsequent years Ann became pretty and turned many a boy’s head, even years later, grown and with a family of her own.
Today, Ann’s family includes two boys in middle school. For a dollar, their Student Council will deliver a Valentine’s Day carnation. Ann gives a dollar to each of her children to buy flowers for their girlfriend. Then she adds another dollar apiece with this instruction: “Pick another girl, one who is nice, but plain – someone who probably won’t get a flower. Send her a flower anonymously. That way she will know that someone cares, and she will feel special.”
Opinion:
I like this story so much because she does not forget those long-ago days of rejection and dejection. She really knows that how pain it was so she wants her children to give a flower to a girl who will not get a flower. She doesn’t want someone who will be her, too. Actually, Valentine’s Day is not only hurt some girls, even some boys. Just because they don’t look handsome, no girls will girl them chocolate, even they are really nice and kind. That is nobody cares. They only care what they look like. By the way, give a flower to a boy or girl who will not get a flower. That way she will know that someone care, and he/she will feel special.

"It Couldn't happen to me -by Beth Johnson" P.48~59
Joanna, 22 years old, is a Puerto Rican girl who moved in the U.S when she was 7 years old. Her home was happy and normal. However, when she was in high school, she had become bad student. And around the same time, she had met her first boyfriend. She was 15; he was 17 years old. Soon after they began dating, they began having sex. However, they didn't use burth control or something because nobody ever talked to her about sex, birth control, so she didn't care about pregnancy, people who was around her was just had taught about what whould happen when she got her first period. She didn't have any close friends who fill in the gaps for her.
After that, she had got a ney boy friend; he was 20 years old. He was special for her because he was handsome, had a car, had a job, and attending a college. Unfortunately, being involved with boyfriend made her even less interested in school, so she told her mother she wanted to quit school because she wanted to be lazy and hang out with her boyfriend. Meanwhile, boyfriend had begun making extra money by selling drugs. She didn't like that, but her boyfriend never aggressive, and abusive to her, exactly good boy, so she ignored his activities as much as she could. Then, when she just turned 18 years old, her periods had stopped. her boyfriend said "Don't worry.",but she told her mother about this and checked together. Yes, she got pregnant. However, she couldn't tell to her father because her father was strict person. Really later, finally, she wrote him a letter. her father called her and cried, "Why didn't you tell me?"
Joanna got her first taste of what it meant to be a single mother thenight after her daughter, Kiara, was born. After that, her boyfriend said he stopped selling drag because she got pregnant. Then She and her boyfriend had moved new apartment, but boyfriend hadn't changed - he was still selling drags and using himself. She was really sad, but she decided that she kicked him out from their apartment. After 3 months later, he was arrested for drug dealing. She was sad because even he was doing bad things, she still loved him. However, she decided that she concentrate on doing positive things for her daughter and she. She learned how to take care about child, meanwhile she studied and took GED test again and again even she had failed many time.
When I was reading this, I thought she must be really sad because she had to realized many things about around her. her boyfriend had been to jail, and she had to raised her daughter alone even she loved him, and I think she regretted that she ignored his activities. Drug destroy everything and makes sad around our relationship all the more if you have. I think in case of Joanna, little bit different case as Rachel, but both of their story is sad.
So far, I have found some interesting vocabularies, and this story also getting interesting. I'll keep reading this.

Chap9 Just do it written by Howie Mandel
When Howie lived with his mother, they even didn’t talk a lot. Since he moved away from Canada to California-the phone has became the best communication. Howie says he had a great admiration and respect for her mom. She had a philosophy far before Nike-and that was “Just do it.”
Personal opinion:
In these chaps, they all talk about that how much they love their mothers. When we were little, we don’t really know how to do the communication with our mothers, I could just go in the other room and say or goodnight. Growing up, I knew that I have do it better. Mother always pay her all for their children. They always put their children first and themselves last. After read these stories, I feel my mother is everything to me, She is always with me and always a part of me.

Harry Potter and Socerer's Stone, Chapter6 on pg 88-112
SUMMARYThe story of chapter 6 is consisted of principally the process of leaving for and arriving to Hogwart, wizard school, and some episodes. Harry left for Hogwart at the platform 9 3/4, King Cross after he had met Ron's family. This platform is in the middle between nine and ten and nobody in muggle knew this platform. To take the train, Harry walked into the barrier between 9 and 10 with Ron. After leaving for Hogwart, in the compartment of the train, Harry also met many friends; Ron, Hermonie and Malfoy, because Harry already was famous among the wizards and many people wanted to meet him. At dark night, Harry arrived at Hogwart safely.
In my opinion, in this chater, Harry starts to lleave for Hogwart in the wizard's world, that is to say, he puts his foot in the wizard's. In the muggle he was just a little boy without his parents and money. Also many people ignored and annoyed him. However, in the wizard world he is very famous, and many people in the wizard like to meet and help him. In life, what is the most important thing for happiness? Money?, Success?, or a luxary car? I think one of the most important is love. In other words, "love is the source of hapiness" a writer, Lee Choel Su in my country, said. When people give and take love each others, they feel happiness in their mind. If a person is ignored and hated from other people without particular reason, can he live happily? However hard he may try to be happy, he dosen't live happy life any more. In this view, it is lucky Harry to go to Hogwart because he is loved and famous in the wizard. I hope Harry will be happy at Hogwart.

Harry Potter 3 Gabriella
page 42- page 58
There was something bad to happen to Harry! At first, his anut and uncle went to the hospital to take care of their stupid son. And they didn't let Harry touch anything. That is too bad! And Harry felt pretty sad and bad! At that time there was a little light shinning, his teachers came to help him! That is really great! And Harry also knew some new witches. I think maybe they can help Harry in the future. Then they took broom to fly to the school! Sometimes I think it is a little hard to fly, because just like Moody's words:" the others keep flying, donnot stop,donnot break ranks. If they take out all of us and you survive, Harry, the rear fuard are standing by to take over; Keep flying east and they will join you." I really like Moddy, even though he was so cruel and had a very fierce look! He was so good. I think he must help Harry and protect him in the future.

She also knew that her dad and her mom were meet each other in college,her dad was her mom teacher. greta didn't agree with their relationship. that's why she really want to know.
Tibby still not being honest with Brian and somehow she found out a lot of things that she didn't know from Brian eventhough he is her friend. she didn't even know that Brian dad was passed away.
Carmen still couldn't accept the fact that her mom was dating again. she was so angry because her mom picked up her so late in Lena's home because she was going to a baseball game with David,her new boyfriend. she even told her mom that she hate her.
Lena surprised by the fact that Eugene was her mom ex-boyfriend. She asked Alice, Tibby's mom if her mom have ever told her anything about eugene. she acted like she knew it too so Alice won't recognise her curiousity. she knew that Eugene had broken her mom heart once.
waow,i was so surprised when i knew that Eugene was Lena's mom ex-boyfriend. and when i knew a little bit about Bridget's mom past life i was so shocked too! attempted to suicide? waow..
i think the pants won't loose its magic. maybe it's just because Bridget still can't accept that she has changed. she was not thin and blonde like before.
Tibby didn't weat that pants at all and sent it straight to Bee. She still thinking of Bailey. I wondeer why she can get close with Brian eventhough she doesn't know Brian that well. All her friends (Lena,Carmen) obviously knew that Brian was falling in love with Tibby but they don't know why Tibby doesn't know it.

Truth Or Dairy by Catherine Clark P 95 - 120
Day 8/10 untill 21/10. Many things happenned to Courtney. On 9/10, in the morning, when she got up she heard a great news. She won the vice president. Now she got a chance with Tom Delaney, the president, the most popular student in school. But Courtney is not the one who get excited about it, it was Beth. She always mention that Courtney should be dating with someone this year and this would be Tom. Courtney get so mad about it. But still she said she will work hard for it, not just for boys.
The day after there's a horrible things, a nightmare, just happenned. That day she was working with Beth at Truth or Dairy. At around 5 o'clock, Beth scream out and said look who's here. And I found out that "someone" who I been dreaming of for days. Dave just walked in to our store. Courtney didn't want to face him so she went to the storeroom and to get some frozen yogurt. She didn't know what to say and what to do. Dave asked her why is she becoming a vice president. This wasn't her. It doesn't seems like something that she would do. She didn't answer all these neither dave. They looked at each other. Dave told her to wait for 3 to 4 months from now. All these just making her so mad. She cried when she got home.
Opinion:
Two things happen to Courtney. Something happy and something sad. Things never go perfect. Whenever she started to forget about Dave, he came back everytime. Seem like a alarm clock, ringing everytime to remind you something. Can't this be changed? It's really hard if this happen on me. They should have ended this relationship. Because it 's never possible again. Please help her out. Also, she has became a vice president. How great is that. It's a new start. Cheer up! To Courtney. Find her own love.
I have just read a few pages this week. It's really boring.

Update: Inner Circle
Inner Circle Page 65--85 .
This week I read 4 Chapters. The school's life in Easton--- Reed's college becomes more and more interesting. The name of these 4 Chapters are :"My Guy", "Cat Burglary","Quit Billings" and "Bogarted". Just see the title we can guess that the must be someone don't like to live in Billings, but who is that person and why she want quit Billings? There must have something bad happened. Let me tell you what's in these 4 Chapters.
When Reed and Sabine talking at lunch, the headmaster just made annnouncement, an exciting announcement. He said next week they will be have an alumni weekend, which include having dinner at the Driscoll Hotel in Easton. Driscoll Hotel was a place which bulit as the same time as Easton. It only host the wealthy parents and grandparents when they went to town for parents' weekends or their graduations. Reed had heard that was as magnidicent inside as it outside, but she have never seen before. But by the time she might have a chance to see how gorgeous it is.
The headmaster asked them if they want to be a volunteer for the committees------decorations,food,invitations committees. He said that he want to show other people that what Easton is about, made something others can be proud. Actually no one want to be those volunteers except the new student---- Sabine. She seems be very excited about this. But Reed doesn't think so, anyway she choose to try it. She want to be the same as Sabine. By the time the girls was talking about the volunteer things, a gay appeared in front of Sabine, and she was attrack by him. Yeah, everyone will be crush on him if he talk to them. Cause you need to acknowledge that he has a very nice looking that no one can say they don't like him. Ok , that's move on. What will happen during the party? No one knows.
Nothing special in the next chapter, just have some conversation between Reed and Constance. Girls always have some boring topic to talking about. But those things often with no main point.
Wow, it seems here will be interesting, this one with a name which is "Quit Billings". So who quit it. Reed? Sabine? Or someone who?
Cheyenne give the new juniors a Billings test. So Reed try to talk to Sabine about the test, but they have many other things to do with, so until they both went to bed they didn't get the time to talk about it. Reed didn't know what Sabine will do with that test, but everyone knows that's not easy to pass. Or Cheyenne won't give them. Ok, Reed was that person who want to get out of living in Billings. Reed thought that everyone want to live in Billings. Because they thought being in Billings, meant being admired, feared and the best. She didn't want those new girls to live in there too. She tried to talk to others about her idea, they all said she must have some big problem, why she want to live away from there, they can't find the answer. After quarrel with them she find that, she can't find another place to go. So she just didn't want to think about it anymore. What can Reed do? She didn't know it, so how can I know, HAHA!!~~
That was life, school life. Everday you find out there's lots of problems. You try to solve it. But after you try it, you know that, not very easy to deal with it. So what can we do? Keep going. There should have a way can solve it, but we don't know when it will happen? Do you guys think as the same as me? Maybe or maybe not!~

"HIGH HEAT" by Carl Deuker Pages 83-105
Shane started his new school life. His new school is Whitman High which is a crowded school. Shane didn't know anyone and no one want to know him. Shane was glad that no one want to talk to him because he think they will ask him about him and his dad. On the other hand, he worried about Marian because she doesn't want to talk to him. Shane met a boy called Lonnie in the school. On Monday, Shane went out with Lonnie and a new friend called Justin. They taught Shane to smoke. After that, they ask Shane to steal beer in a mini-mart. They stole six bottle of beer and drunk together. Since that day, they stole beer everyday.
The night before Halloween, the police came and caught them, but Justin was gone already. So the police took them to The Youth Detention Center. One man asked Shane about steal beer and Justin. Besides, the judge ask Shane to perform twenty hours of community service in a baseball field. After he finished the service, he met Lonnie again. Lonnie ask Shane to go out again.
After I finished these pages, I felt very disappointed about Shane. I know that he will feel lonely and sad that his father died. Actually he know that steal is a bad thing, but he affect by his friends. He was a good student in Shorelake, but now he become a bad student and a naughty boy. I hope he can awake to be a good person. His mother is very tired to earn money for their family, he should not let his mon worry about him.
Besides, I think these pages are easy to read. I can understand most of the parts. I didn't need to check the dictionary, so I think I will not change to read the other books.

Over the wall p.22~31(Chapter 4)
As soon as The Carpenter’s Son Lutheran School let out in late May, Tyler was ready to leave there with his glove, his cleats and his camera and went to the east. In there, he stayed with his dad’s sister, Aunt Chrissy, and Uncle Phil, and his two cousins, Breena and Louie. At that time, he just finished up the first half of his baseball season. As a result, he did not have enough time to back his home and got there just a few weeks before the second season start. First, he met Louie again in NYC. Louie made some jokes, and they were teasing each other. And he met Breena. For him, she was just little cousin, however she became a wonderful girl.
To begin with, I could not understand this chapter well, so I could not summarize completely. I’m sorry about that. In the future story, I just guess that Breena will be a key person for Tyler.

Understanding September 11th by Mitch Frank Pages 36-73
Understanding Islam, and how it could be hijacked like a plane and used as an excuse for mass murder, is key to Understanding September 11th. Islam is one of the world’s largest religions, with more than one billion believers. It was begun by the prophet Muhammad. The stereotype is familiar, Islam is a religion of violence, where suicide bombers and mad warriors kill in the name of God. Certainly hearing the words of Osama bin Laden, who believes God gave him visions of planes hitting tall office buildings, it’s believable that Islam has become justification for murder. The middle east matters because of religion, economics, and politically unstable. The terrorist target the United States because many reason. For example, American support Israel, which many muslims see as muslim land under Jewish occupation. There also much deeper resentment. America today is prosperous and successful, while the Middle East struggles with poverty and misery. But Thousand years ago, Islamic empire that grew after Muhammad’s death was the most powerful on earth. They also hate the American because America’s support for Israel, that has created more arab resentment of U.S than perhaps any other issue.

tender is the night (by Minh) chapter 12-16 (page 69- 85)
Today, we will continue about my novel, I think we will be suprised by many interesting thing:
First, that day, the Divers, Norths, and Rosemary lunch together in a restaurant and measure the "repose" of the Americans who come in to eat. Rosemary gets up from the table to call a movie house, asking them to give a showing of her successful film "Daddy's Girl." After her call, she overhears an intimate exchange between Dick and Nicole in which Dick sighs how much he wants Nicole, and they arrange to rendezvous at the hotel at four to be together.
Before leaving for Paris, the same party visits a World War I battlefield where Dick animatedly serves as guide. He spies a young girl bearing flowers to leave on her brother's grave, which she can't find. Dick instructs her to leave the flowers on a grave without looking at the name.
Next, they head to Paris and take drinks on a houseboat on the Seine. Rosemary even takes a glass herself, her first, announcing that the previous day was her eighteenth birthday. Perhaps fired by the liquor, Rosemary invites Dick into her room, across from his own, and asks him to take her(Oh! what will happen when they come to her room, maybe...............they will drink again ^_^)............ They kiss, but Dick declines the offer and tries to explain why they cannot have an affair, although the thought catches him more off guard than he is willing to admit(Why? If I was him, I wouldn't leave anyway).
Dick leaves and Rosemary brushes her hair feverishly. Rosemary wakes the next morning and shops with Nicole, each of them noting that they lived in a similar neighborhood of Paris when they were young, each of their families economizing(Wow! amazing! maybe they are twin, or they have the same childhood).
The whole group, adding Collis Clay, a Yale student Rosemary knew from the states, go to watch a showing of Rosemary's "Daddy's Girl" at a movie house. Everyone enjoys it.
Next, though Collis wants to spend more time with the starlet, Dick and Rosemary drop him at his hotel and go to a party together. Dick warns Rosemary that she will not like the party, but that he must go to arrange for the purchase of a struggling friend's painting.
My opinion:
Finally, in my opinion, I can say that the fact is that Rosemary and Nicole have different ideas of economizing helps highlight an interesting similarity and difference between the two. The two are similar in that they are both financially independent women; neither needs to rely on men for her economic well being. The difference rests on the idea that while Rosemary is a new woman who has worked for her money, Nicole inherited hers. What Dick has to offer each of them is not money, but something more human. You can guess many infers about these chapter, but they still have many things in next chapter. We will come back. Good luck for our midterm tests and have a great weekend with hallowe'en day

They kiss, but Dick declines the offer and tries to explain why they cannot have an affair, although the thought catches him more off guard than he is willing to admit(Why? If I was him, I wouldn't leave anyway).
Dick leaves and Rosemary brushes her hair feverishly. Rosemary wakes the next morning and shops with Nicole, each of them noting that they lived in a similar neighborhood of Paris when they were young, each of their families economizing(Wow! amazing! maybe they are twin, or they have the same childhood).
The whole group, adding Collis Clay, a Yale student Rosemary knew from the states, go to watch a showing of Rosemary's "Daddy's Girl" at a movie house. Everyone enjoys it.
Next, though Collis wants to spend more time with the starlet, Dick and Rosemary drop him at his hotel and go to a party together. Dick warns Rosemary that she will not like the party, but that he must go to arrange for the purchase of a struggling friend's painting.
My opinion:
Finally, in my opinion, I can say that the fact is that Rosemary and Nicole have different ideas of economizing helps highlight an interesting similarity and difference between the two. The two are similar in that they are both financially independent women; neither needs to rely on men for her economic well being. The difference rests on the idea that while Rosemary is a new woman who has worked for her money, Nicole inherited hers. What Dick has to offer each of them is not money, but something more human. You can guess many infers about these chapter, but they still have many things in next chapter. We will come back. Good luck for our midterm tests and have a great weekend with hallowe'en day

The Dominant Primordial Beast
As the so beastly environment, Buck’s nature changed a lot. Even though he doesn’t like be brute, he has a rival. He called Spitz. Spitz tried many times to fight with Buck. One of them must die in the end. One night, Spitz takes over Buck's nest while he has gone to eat his ration. Buck was very angry, and attacked him. There were some huskies came and around the camp. Spitz attacks Buck from the side. Buck shakes him off and concentrates on driving off the strange dogs. Buck finds himself viciously fighting for his life. Just as he kills two huskies. And then, the team took fight into the forest. Buck’s team had took half the food away. One of the dog called Dolly attacked Buck. Buck avoided so quick and raced back. He used Francois to save him. Francois kills Dolly with an axe, and Buck felt exhausted. At last, the solidarity of the group is destroyed by Buck's clever undermining of Spitz's authority.
It’s a very brute story. I try to describe the story, but so hard to make very good sentences which can let you know what happened. I am really enjoying reading this section. The writer wrote very vivid about their fighting. Buck finds himself in the beastly environment. He used his clever to the leader of the dogs.

The Indian in the Cupboard by Lynne Reid Banks. Pages 1 - 49
The story began with Omri's birthday. At school, Patrick gave him a used plastic Indian. After school there was a family tea. His parents gave him a skateboard. He got a helmet from Adiel, his eldest brother and a cupboard from Gillon, his other brother. Then, he put the Indian in the cupboard and locked it. In the morning, the Indian was alive in the cupboard. The Indian became a plastic when he left the Indian in the cupboard. At night, the Indian was alive again. He realized that he can make everything become real if he put it in the cupboard. Next morning, he put a plastic tepee and horse and they became real. He brought the Indian to the park and let him rode his horse. After a while, Omri put the Indian and the horse in his pocket and they came home. The Indian was bleeding because the horse kicked him. Omri put a plastic soldier into the cupboard and he was become real. The soldier patched the Indian up. After the soldier’s done, Omri put him back into the cupboard and he became a plastic again. Then, Omri went to school because his mum has called him so many times.
Actually, this book is harder than Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. There are many new vocabulary that I don't know, but the story is almost the same. It's about a magic.. Can you imagine if you have a cupboard that can make everything become real?? It's really cool, isn't it? What will happen after Omri got back from school?? We will know it next week...
There is a movie of this book, but I haven't watched it. My host father said I should watch this movie because it's really interesting. Is that true??!

Daragonwings p1-p10
The novel of Dragonwins, by Laurence Yep, tells a family story in China of the period of Dang dynasty. A boy named Moon Shadow 8 year old lived with his mother and grandma without his father in the Middle Kingdom, or China, as the white demons call it. Moon always wanted know about his father because he had never seen after his father left his home and traveled over the sea to work in the demon land. there was plenty of money to be made among the demons, but it was also dangerous. His own grandpa had been lynched about thirty years before by a mob of white demons almost the moment he had set foot on their shores. However, his mother had never wanted to talk about it to his son. His mother usually said she was too busy to answer his questions. Her mother was overworked, for grandma was too old to help her with the heavy work, and his mother had to try to do both her own work and Father's on our small farm. Moon knew her mother was afraid of the place, because every chance they got, her mother would take him into the small temple in our village and they would pray for his father's safety. Moon was curious about the Land of the Golden Mountain mainly because his father was there.
opinion: Since I changed my novel, it became easy for reading. I'm trying to continue reading with imagination about what happen or will happen. This tale tells about a boy, his mother, his father, and his granmma, the period of Tang dynasty. The boy, Moon Shadow, always wanted to know about his father but his mother had never let him know about his father..........

Dinner at the homesick restaurant - P 66 - 120
Chapter 3 - Destroyed by love
In 1952, Jenny was seventeen years old and going to be a beauty. Her brother, Cody was away at college. Her brother Ezra had refused to go to the college and started to work in Scarlatti's restaurant. But he was ordered off to a training camp down south. He asked Jenny that she will come to Scarlatti's restaurant, talk with Mrs. Scarlatti and make sure she's all right and Josiah, his friend, too. After Ezra left, Jenny and her mom lived in the house alone. According to Ezra's letter, Jenny came to Scarlatti's restaurant and talked with Mrs. Scarlatti. Then, she came to Josiah and realized that Ezra gets out of the army and he want to open the restaurant where people come just like to a family dinner. Cody wrote that he was being interviewed by several corporation and he wanted a job in business after he finished school. Ezra wrote that he should be a soldier. Their mother seemed to relax somewhat. Jenny didn't tell her about Ezra's restaurant. After that, Jenny looked in on Josiah again, and in the third time, Josiah invited her to come his home and have supper with his mother and him. After the supper, they walked and came back Jenny's home. In the porch, he kissed her on the lips, then she kissed him back, then her mom's voice broke over them, she didn't want her to neck with a dummy Josiah. So she didn't see him again and they had split the city between them. Ezra come back home with the reason that the army wasn't his style. By the time, Jenny reached college, she'd grown to be the beauty that everyone predicted. Meanwhile, Cody had become a success-shot ahead through several different firms and Ezra still worked for Mrs. Scarlatti. Late in Jenny senior year, she felt in love. This was Harley Baines, genius. Next year, he'd be at Paulham university, outside Philadelphia and doing advanced research in the field of genetics and Jenny too, she had just been accepted by its medical school. When exams began, she came to him with her genetics notes and asked if he could help her study. They sat out-doors in the grass on a bedspread. After they done, Harley help Jenny to fold the spread. Suddenly, he stept forward, flipped the spread around him like a hooked cloak and wrapped her inside its darkness and kissed her. It was unskillful kiss anyhow, too abrupt. After her last exam, she knew that he came back home without graduation yet. Then she received his letter some days later, he said he want to marrige her. She came back her mom's house and met her mother, Cody and Ezra. They have the family dinner in the Scarlatti's restaurant. Ezra said he will be a new full partner of this restaurant with dollar. But his mom was upset when she heard that and she didn't want to have dinner anymore. After Jenny's mom left, Jenny walked to home and she came to the fortune-teller's and ask the lady that she should get married or not. And the lady said "Married" and if she doesn't, she will be destroyed by love. Then Jenny married Harley in August. After that they took the train to Paulham university, where they rented a small apartment.
My opinion:
Now I can understand the tittle. Why the author named this story "Dinner in the homesick restaurant". I think Ezra will give us a surprise. I know why the tittle talk about the dinner in the restaurant. But i didn't know about "homesick" yet. Why the author talk about "homesick"? Can you guess it? I can't. In this chapter, Pearl's children become adults and all of them have good lives. They sastified with these. But their mother didn't sastified about Ezra's job. She want him to become a professor but he didn't. Jenny is a good girl and has a good husband. The story is more and more exciting and I like it. It's not hard to read. I think I can finish it 2 or 3 weeks later. Thanks for your attention. Have a great weekend.

P95-141
Black beauty went with another owner lady Anne who like ride on horse back and Anne named Black beauty Black Austen Black beauty has two friends, Ginger and Lizzie. Lizzie wasn’t a really good horse for women, but one day lady Anne want to ride on Lizzie and got a really serious fell, but she’ll be fine soon, things happed day by day. Black beauty got a new gram, Alfred Smirk. He was a tall, good-looking man, and never abuse Black beauty, and always pats her. Back beauty’s feat got so sore from working, and they treat him but after Black beauty’s feat get better, he got sold again.
Well, so far in this week I read, thing that mostly make me think about is Lady Anne’s fell, because before she even ride on Lizzie. Lizzie’s owner had fold Anne that Lizzie doing no good on women rider, but Anne still rode on her, because she think that she has been riding horses since she was 3. So she can do it, and nothing will stop her. So, finally she fall down.
Opinion:
I think sometime we should listen to other people’s advises. Because things doesn’t happen in the way we thought, and not because we had experience many times, we can use the same measuring every time, thing changes, so listen to people that around you, walk a way that is right.

Charlotte's Web by E.B.WHITE. Pages105-143
The crickets sang in the grasses. They sang the summer's ending. Charlotte heard it and knew that she hadn't much time left. Wilbur is now the center of attraction on the farm. Every time Charlotte wrote the word on her web, for example,SOME PIG, TERRIFIC, and RADIANT, he tries hard to look like that. He is going to be taken place for the Fair. She knew that she couldn't help him much longer. It's time to lay eggs. Fair Day's morning came. Charlotte and the rat, Templeton, followed Wilbur secretly. The last word that she ever wrote was Humble which he brought from a newspaper. At night, she started making the last word.
This story starts from spring and now, it is the end of summer. I enjoy this story's season changing . Practically, Seattle's summer has already gone and now we are in season of fall, so does this story. I can tell that this story will reach the climax soon. However, Charlott has on my mind because she seems to become weaker and weaker.

Perfume- Patrick Suskind- part 1 pg 45- 111
There was a perfumer, named Giuseppe Baldini, he was dealing with a difficult problem, he had no more customer. Pelissier, another perfumer created a perfume named Amor and Psyche took all the customer of Baldini. Baldini tried to copy that perfume but he couldn't, so he planned to move far away when he forgot that he ordered some goatskins from Maitre Grimal, the tannery "to use as a blotter". The one who delivered the goatskin was Grenouille. Baldini didn't need them anymore but he had to let Grenouille take the goatskins inside the baker before somebody thought that he couldn't pay for them. When Grenouille came to the laboratory, he could tell Baldini the formula of Amor and Psyche. He didn't know all the names in the formula, but he could point through the dark, to the bottle of attar,or balm. Grenouille not only could mix an exactly Amor and Psyche, but also could created a better one. On the next day, Baldini went to the tannery of Grimal to pay for the goatskins with no grumble and purchased Grenouille. Grimal agreed with a happy feeling that he made a good deal, after that he drank two bottles of wine and lost the way. He was drunk so when he fell down, his face was in the water, and he was dead.
Grenouille made the baker' dozen of Baldini became famous again. Of course nobody thought that an apprentice like Grenouille stayed in the laboratory all the time to created the perfumes. To be truth, the perfumes were wonderful, nothing similar but all strange and brilliant. Baldini let him do his own way, but he also taught him how to boil, to make the attar and flower oil. When Grenouille could do all by himself, Baldini just left everything to him. That was why he could have chance to make his experiments. He successed in created some oils of some plants, but not with glass, or blood, or wood etc. Grenouille had to understand that he couldn't control all kinds of scent, he fell to ill with heavy sweats and redish blisters. Baldini must have moved him to his bed and asked the doctor to came but nobody could do anything. At the end, Baldini felt hopeless until Grenouille asked: "Are there other ways to extract the scent from things besides pressing or distilling?"
Balidini thought this was the last wish of the dead man so he just said that there were other ways, in the south. Grenouille said" Good" and closed his eyes, but not dead, he just slept and one week later, he was fine again with no more blisters. After that, Grenouille worked for Baldini for three more years just to have a journeyman's papers and then he could go, with "a little rucksack, a second shirt, two pairs of stoocking, a large sausage, a horse blanket, and twenty- five francs", after all what he had done for Baldini. Without a shaking hand of Baldini, he came to the south to follow his ambition. Baldini didn't feel pity or anything like that, he didn't like Grenouille. All he thought about was to become the best perfumer ever, he slept on his bed, next to his wife with a notebook of hundreds formula of perfume in his hand. Unfortunately, a royal decree required that the buildings on the bridge be torn down, the servants of Baldini went out already, only he and his wife were hurtled into the river with everything in the laboratory, and the notebook, too.
This path make me understand more about the perfume, really. And I can feel that control the scents is Grenouille is his, he couldn't live without, another thing I see now, that everbody who had a relatives with Grenouille were dead after they met him, it this some kind of destiny?

Skin Horse said that “Real isn’t how you are made. It’s a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become Real. It doesn’t happen all at once, you become. It takes a long time. That’s why it doesn’t often happen to people who break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept. Generally, by the time you are Real you can’t be ugly, except to people who don’t understand.” Next day, boy’s mother started on fire in a backyard.

The momery keeper's daught P58-90
chapter 3-4
in this two chapter, it is talking about Dr. David wife. After she born the the boy and the daughter, then she think that it will have a good family, but after she knew that her baby girl have been die, and she was very upset about it. In the following years, she still cannot believe it, and she is going to become more depress, also she have always forget her son. Her son feel very sad that why her mother and father don't comprehend him, so he lied that her sister being a GHOST, and come to find him in the evening that the mother and father will more comprehend him.
Opinion
i think that the story is more more upset, because the mother is very upset about her daughter die, and cannot get over it, also the son was very unhappy that the father and mother don't comprehend to him and make a lie to let them pay attention to him. There is a happy family to becaome a sad familybecause of one baby girl, that is unbelelieve.

It was sweet and funny that Peter and Wendy kissed. Even though it was sweet, I feel sorry for tinker bell. I always know tinker bell, she was in love with Peter Pan since the store were made. It made me sort of dislike Peter Pan that he never said he love tinker bell……!

Understanding September 11th by Mitch Frank Pages 24-36
What is terrorism? Terrorist is a group that use violent action in order to achieve political aims or to force a government to act. American worried the next attack will be biological weapons, spreading deseases such as anthrax or smallpox. Anthrax is a serious disease that affects sheep and cows and sometimes people, and can cause death. The civilian rushed to buy gas masks and powerful antibiotics to protect themselves. it was impossible not to be afraid. Terrorits don'tbelieve they are doing anything wrong. they don't have money or power or inflence to fight their enemies in a war, so random violence and the death of innocnt people are justified in their eyes. in 1894, French terrorist Emile Henry threw a homemade bomb into paris cafe. When they cought him, the judge asked why Henry attacked innocent people. Henry replied, "there are no innocent."
This book contain many information. not just what happened in september11th, but also the terrorism, and many other things that we should know about that. We can learn many things in this book. I'll keep reading this book.

" Frankenstein" by Mary Wollstobecraft Shelley (page 21-50)
Victor followed the creature to the icy mountain. Then, the creature started telling the story how can he learn human language, why he hated Victor and killed Victor's brother by accident. Then he suggested Victor to make a female creature for him and he wouldn't injure anyone else. At first, Victor wanted to help the creature, but then he realized that his work may make dangerous for everybody so he refused. That made the creature angry, he killed Victor best friend -Henry-, and Victor's love- Elizabeth-. Victor couldn't stand with their lost, he swore that he would devote his life to revenge. Unfortunately, the way to reach the creature was very severe, and Victor died. When Victor died, the creature had no purpose. Finally, the creature decided to kill himself as a way to cure his soul.
The end of the story is so sad. Almost characters in the story died because of creature's jealousy. This book is attractive and not very hard to read. I am going to read "The strange case of Dr.Jekyll and Mr.Hyde" by Robert Louis Stevenson. I think this a interesting book too, because some of my friends advise it for me.

Jitterbug Perfume P.27~P.55
Gee. This book is so hard to read and understand! When I was reading the book, I saw every lines had difficult vocaburaly words. Even though I do not have a dictionary, I guessed story to understand and make sense in my head. I think after few weeks later I will have stopped reading the book. I will not try to but it depends on this book I guess. I have been reading P.27 to P.55. It took me for about three days to read. I can't read first as people can. By the way, I apologized my work is late. This week I will try finish next reading before Friday.
Thank you all.
Thank you all.
HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS
Pg31-43
Beginning of the chapter was kind of similar to the other story, cause the scene was HP was staying in his closet, where he always live if he is not in the Hogwarts school, his uncle Vernon yelled at him and ask him to come down. They got the idea that Voldermort gonna attack Dursleys' house so they were asked to come with the wizard group to get away from the attack. They have been changing their mind for like a lot of time. At first they didnt want to go with HP and the other wizards, but for a long time HP argued with Dursleys family, HP let them know that Voldermort like to torture mud blood. As the scene going on, for around 15 mins argueing with Dursleys family, Dursleys family got scare and they accepted to come with Harry and wizard group to the safety place. Dursleys family drove the car with Dedalus in the car, for safety that's why the wizard group sent a witch to go on the car with them. After the Dursley family left, HP ran up to his room and finished packing stuff. He had a strange feeling about leaving this house, the house which he had lived for almost his youth.
My opinion:
This is a beginning of a challenge story as i think, everything happens faster and faster. HP had to live his house. They had to move to a new position for safety. I like the way how his aunt looked at him at the end of the chapter, HP thought this was the first time his aunt looked at him as a lovely eyes. I feel very poor for HP, he had to face againts with a lot of thing. I think if i was him i cant even make the first edition.^^ Thx for reading this.

Dinner in the homesick restaurant - P. 34-67
Chapter 2 - Teaching the cat to yawnIn the chapter 2, it talk about the Tull family life. Pearl think about our life when her husband still stay with her. Cody - the first son of Pearl and Beck, he realize that he couldn't picture his father's most recent time with them and try to find some scene that would explain Beck's leaving. Then one Saturday, Jenny - the last daughter of Pearl talk to Cody that she think her dad doesn't come home anymore, he left them. Sometimes Cody dream about his father. School started and Cody entered ninth grade. He and his two best friends landed in the same homeroom. Sometimes Pete and Boyd came home with him, they always walked the long way, avoiding the grocery store where Cody's mother worked. At the supper, their mom complain a lot about them, neightbors always complain them and make their mom upset as "well, Mrs Tull, that oldest boy of yours is certainly grown up. I saw him with a pack of Camels in the street in front of the Barlow girl's house". Shortly before Thanksgiving, a girl named Edith Taber tranfered to their school. He caught up and walked beside her. She seemed to welcome his company and talked to him nearly non-stop. After dinner in Thanksgiving, they play game - Monopoly and then Cody and Ezra go out, and Cody just know that Ezra know Edith Taber, too. Ezra came her home and she show him her whistle, when she met him in the street and play his whistle. on Monday morning, Edith avoid Cody, she doesn't want to talk with him. He upset and walked home alone, long after the others had left, choosing streets where he'd be certain not to run into Edith or her friends. Het let himseft into the home. He passed Jenny's room, he climed on up to his own room and set his books before he realized Ezra was there and sleep. Cody knoelt beside his bed and pulled from beneath it a half-filled bottle of bourbon, and empty gin bottle, and strewed them around Ezra, arrange them just right. He took out his father's camera in the closet. He want to take a picture for Ezra. But Ezra's cat seemed mildly disturbed. Suddenly, Cody think about the yawn, it would have made a wonderful picture: dead beat Ezra and his no account cat, both with gaping mouths. And then he said "Alicia? Yawn" but he can't teach him to yawn. However he took the picture for Ezra.In my opinion, I think Pearl's children always want their dad come back home, but he didn't anymore. About Cody, he is oldest brother in their family but he didn't help his mom to do something in home. He always make his mom upset. He is fourteen but he always think about girl and always go with them. Now, I don't like Cody and empathy with Pearl, she have to work hard for her family without her husband and take care her children. I think the story is more interesting than chapter 1. I will keep going to read it and i hope you guide like it as me. What do you think in the chapter 3? I will tell you when I finish it next weekend. Thanks for your reading. See u guide.
The Second Summer of The Sisterhood by Ann Brashares
pg.77-105
Carmen worked for baby sitting for the Morgans,she still couldn't accept that her mom was dating again. David,the man whom her mo went with was asked her to have dinner together. After she tried to avoid it,even she lied to her mom that she has a date with porter,her mom still successed. Because she already told her mom that she has a date with Porter which the real fact was she didn't has it,so she must asked Porter to join the dinner. When the four of them went dinner together,Carmen was judged David's looks all the time as she ignored Porter who has been so polite to her. Carmen has a lot of things in her mind about her mom and David so she didn't pay any attention to anything beside.
Brian, Tibby's best friend surprised Tibby by came at her dorm and asked her if he can stay over night at her room. Brian missed her so much. That was Tibby first experience for a boy that stay over night,but if it was someone elses than Brian she would say no. Brian is a sexy as tube socks for her. At the morning,Tibby has a plan with Maura and Alex,her new friends,but she didn't ask Bian to go with them. When they were at the restaurant,Tibby felt a little guilty for Brian.
Lena was so shocked when Christina,Carmen's mom (she didn't say it with purpose,she think Lena knew it already) about her mom's relationship with a guy named Eugene. It happen when Christina asked Lena about her relatinship with Kostos,when Lena told Christina that they are broke up,Christina asked her if it was because of the long distance relationship? and Lena thought that it must be a good reason and she said yes. Ang then Christina told her that it remains her to Ari, Lena's mom. When Lena asked her mother who is Eugene, Ari's face was tokk on frustated,unpolished look. Everytime she wanted to answer something it seemed to be calculated before. Ari asked Lena where she knew it but Lena didn't want to bring Christina so she answered nobody. Ari answered Lena question with I have no idea what are you talking about,but she answered it with whispered.
it didn't has a lot to tell from Bee's life,but as far as I know Tibby already sent the pants to Bee because Tibby didn't wear it. From pg 76 until now the book only told the story for Carmen, Tiby, and Lena's life.
Carmen still can't accept that her mom was dating again,she reallly has a lot of things in he mind right now. She really curious about the Eugene story. She think her mom's mind was jumbled,but,in fact she didn't. I really want to know who Eugene was,it could be someone in Ari's past. Lena relationship with her mom not as good as Carmen's so maybe this Eugene story can be a way for her mom to get closer to her daughter. Lena still has a feeling for Kostos,the fact that Kostos already has a new girlfriend makes her heart unstabil. She thinks she already let Kostos go but I think she hasn't. I don't know why Lena made the decission to break up with Kostos.
There will be a lot of things that coming through from the sisterhood's life..I'm so curious!

Opinion

Shane went back to the school. He is still can check the scores about the baseball team. The championship game was on Saturday. At that day, Shane's mother took him and his sister to a matinee, but he went to the University of Washington campus to watch the game. In the game, Lincoln team was the state champions. After that, Shane left the stadium as quickly as he could.

Shane told her to be relax. However, many people came to look at their house, no one want to buy because there were a suicide here. In early August, a family,the Robertsons, came and look at their house,as soon as they bought their house. As this reason, Shane and his family moved to city housing. Shane's mother found a job that work at night. On the other hand, Shane must take the bus to school now. In the bus stop, he always see someone that he doesn't want to see.
After I read these pages, I know that Shane was afraid what the others think about him and his father, that's why he doesn't want to play in baseball team and stop to see his friends. But I think if I met the same thing, I will not stay away from my friends. I think it is very important that have some friends with you when you feel upset. If you don't share you worry with your friends or somebody, you can't be better. So that I suggest Shane to find his friends and talk with them.
Otherwise, I feel better when I read the baseball game part in this book, so I can keep reading on this book!

Harry Potter and the Socerer's Stone on pages 61-87
Harry Potter and the Socerer's Stone on pages 61-87, Chapter 5.
In this chapter, Hagrid helped Harry to go to Hagwart. Harry needed a uniform with all pupil, some course book, and other equipment such as wand and cauldron to go to Hogwart. At the Leaky Cauldron, a small pub but famous place among all wizards, they went to Gringotts, bank of goblins, and got some money out of his parents safe. Hagrid not only bought him an owl as his birthday present but also found him a nice wand from Mr. Ollivander. After they finished all preparation, he went to Hogwart alone by train. Finally the train left the station of King Cross railway in London.
In my opinion, there are many subplots of main story, Hogwart, a boy who Harry met at the uniform shop, and Quidditch. First, Hogwart is the wizard school Harry learn about the wizardand main place I just guess. I also can guess this school is very beautiful and miraculous because I saw many words such as 'Flew', 'magic', and 'dragon'. Second, A boy who Harry met at the uniform shop maybe is Ron Wesley, Harry's friends. Then, it looks like to show the stroy Harry make a good friend with him and enjoy the school lifen with him at Hogwart. Do you agree with me? Third, Hagrid said to Harry about Quidditch, " It's our sport, Wizard sport-lime soccer in the Muggle world". This let me guess the relation of Harry and Quidditch. I think maybe Harry enjoy playing Quidditch at Hogwart. Finally, I'm happy Harry left to Hogwart, wizard school, and hope Harry arrives at Hogwart with safe.
Witch Child
It was a cold day,even for the early spring. They crowd the market square worse than for a fair.
It is dangerous for her to be ther. She sees them glancing and whispering "That's her , the granddaughter," "Daughter of the Devvil, more like." Then they turn away, sniggering, hands covering their mouths, faces turning red at the lewd images they conjure in their own mind's eye. The evil is in themselves. She should flee, get away. They will turn on her next unless she goes. She looks around Eyes, hards with hatred, slides from hers.
It's difficult for me to interpret this novel. I can't imagine what this story would develop on next
story. Maybe I need to find the other one.

Mommy Mary written by Cathrine Hickland
Cathrine's mom's eightieth birthday is coming soon, but in her eyes,she still looks her mom like the same as when Cathrine was five years old and looked up to the woman who taught her so much about everything. Her mom divorced when she was five, Cathrine said:"My had many hardships, but still managed to install the values of love, hard work, and being there for others. Also, Cathrine feels so greatful about herself, so many of the kids she grew up with didn't live to see twenty-two or they didn't have any focus or direction in their lives. In the middle of Cathline childhood, her mom had an emotional breakdown; the finanial stress and pressure of raising two kids alone became too much. Anyway, she loves her mom so much, she is the hero to Cathrine.
chap7
The Greatest Gift written by Eva La Rue
I found out the section I read is mostly talking about how single mother raised their children after divorce. Like this one "The Greatest Gift" written by Eva La Rule. It is talking about a normal mom who had been really responsible for her children. After Eva's older brother, Chuck, was killed accidently by a drunk driver. Her mom realized how easy life could be lost, so she started offer Eva and her sister, Nika, all they wanted. For this unlucky family, life has been struggling because theirs dad living situation was not well also. For supporting our interets ,and discovered our talent, she usually took two or three jobs at the sametime.She took a weekend job at an ice-sketing place, and use her working hours exchange lessons for Eva, and Nika. She did something like mailroom service, and plastic company work,too. She never forgetten drove us to our dance class five days a week for ten years. Eva had a chance to experience same thing as her mother did. When the time she raised her child she felt to be a good mother is a hard thing. Therefore, she always appreciate what her mom done to her which directed her to find and reached her dream.
Personal Opinion
Life could be very hard if you are a single mother who is going raise their children by yourself. That is the common idea I got from reading those two chapters. Compare to those two passages, both of authors were having a similar childhood background. They all appriciated very much for what their moms tought them. However, as my view both moms have their own spcial part. First moms has fall down once, for there were lots of stress she need to face. She is a strick mom, she set up the rules for her girls and did look after them very carefully. On the other hand, the second mom is very responsible, and she spoiled her girls a little bit. But she did a perfect job to support her girls dream. Mother's love is the most precious love in the world. Here, I want to say I love you, mom.

“Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul II” by Jack Canfield, Mark Victor Hansen and Kimberly Kirberger. Pages 63-100.
Summary:
Alicia and Molly was a best friend. They enjoyed the same things, laughed at the same jokes and even had the same love for sunflowers. Their friendship grew very strong. In fifth grade, they were not in the same class, but at lunch they both sat in nearby assigned swats and turned around to talk to each other. They didn’t care anything although they got into trouble because of their friendship. It seemed like nothing could destroy that friendship. When seventh grade started, they were being put to a test. Molly started to hang out with a new group of people. They spent less time together; even they didn’t talk to each other. When Alicia would try to talk to her, Molly would just ignore her. Alicia was so confused. She wanted to tell Molly that how badly she felt. Thus she called to Molly. Nevertheless, Alicia realized she was not the only one hurting after had talked to Molly. She also ignored Molly when Alicia talked to her new friends. Finally, they both decided that they wanted to be with their new friends but they would never forget the fun and friendship they had shared with each other.
Today, Molly and Alicia are finally in the same classes. They still get in trouble for talking too loudly. Molly is not Alicia’s best friends anymore, but Molly more like her sister. Molly taught Alicia something very important. She taught her that things change, people change, and it doesn’t mean you forget the past or try to cover it up. It simply means that you move on, and treasure all the memories.
Opinion:
I really like this story because it told me what I should do for my friendship. You will have a really good friend in your life. Just do your best to keep that friendship. If the friendship is broke with some reasons, please never feel unhappy or upset. Please let’s them go. Both of you also have to learn grow and meet a lot of new friends. Maybe you will meet your old friends many years later. Nothing you can do or stop it. Your friendship will be gone but your memories and they are priceless.
These are from the book. I think that is so meaningful so I would like to share with you guys:
Hold a friend’s band through times of trial,
Let her find love through a hug and a smile;
But also know when it is time to let go-
For each and every one of us must learn to grow.

"It Couldn't happen to me -by Beth Johnson" P.32~48
Rachel went to a delivery room, and her daughter, Payten came into the world. Rachel hated leaving her daughter, but she didn't want to be one of those teen moms who drop out of school. Therefore, she was raising her daughter, work in part time job for daughter's stuff, and studying hard for dental assistant, even class was difficult for her.
Although things were doing well with her baby, Rachel still had a difficult obstacle to face:determing who the child's father was. She asked all people who had sex with Rachel. Finally she found the father, but he was very upset. Since then, the father has paid a small amount of monthly child support,and he visits daughter about once a week. After that, she found one apartment, and moved in that room for new life with daughter.
Now, She decided that she choose her friends for daughter, because some people don't like to play with little kid. People who want to be Rachel's friends have to understand the way her life is. And also, she decided she'll be the best mother she can possibly be to daughter. She'll have a close relationship with her daughter and talk with her about everything, so that daughter can tell and ask Rachel anything.
In this chapter, I could find some interesting vocabulary. And then, this chapter "Rachel" was impressed for me because she has a lot of strong decision and resolution, even she is young. I think it's different from another teenmoms. I think she still has some trouble for raising child because it's pretty difficult thing, but I hope she'll overcome some situation, and be a good and strong mother.
Now, I'm going into next chapter, "Joanna".
