Outsider's Comparison.


       Another post of lovely school, painful school.


       So, recently I have finished a little book called 'The Outsiders' by S.E Hinton, and honestly it is a good book. My class has been asked to compare ourselves to one of the characters in it. But, not like 'Oh, Cherry and I are the same gender!' or 'I'm funny, I'm like Two-Bit!'. We have to compare ourselves from their character traits, more detailed ones. And, what they went through, if it relates to us in some way. Let's simply get started then.
       In the book The Outsiders, there are many different and unique characters, and I could almost relate to all of them. There is one character though that I relate to the most, Sodapop. In most of the book, Sodapop tries to stay calm, and has hopes with dreams. He is in the middle of it all mostly, between Ponyboy's and Darry's fights.
       I mostly relate to this character because of the fact I can relate to what he is going through. Everyone wants them to pick a side, and somethings really just don't go his way at all. People look at him throughout the book to be someone who is almost like a star.
       I have to choice, or I have to pick sides with family and friends. When people look at me, they might as well think I'm just the usual girl with a smile.
       Another way that I relate to him is because of his breakdown at the end of the book. Having feeling bottled up inside, because you know that at the wrong time and wrong place, they will let out a scream. And, everyone will never treat you the same. But, if you wait for until the right moment, you will change the minds of the people that caused this pain.
       Its just the way I think, I hope you guys try to read The Outsiders, and watch the movie. I finished the book, and am currently watching the movie for class. Bye guys.

    I like how you compared yourself to Sodapop with the ideas your brought about how you and Soda are alike really stood out to me. I never thought that I am like Soda till I read this and now I know how similar I am to his actions mainly with having to choose a side and keeping everything bottled up till I just explode! I’m glad that you like the book and hope you enjoy the movie!

Favorite Food, I Guess.

               So, yesterday for class we discussed foods that we would like to eat. We also talked about what we would want for our best meal. It didn't take me that long to pick what I wanted for a dream meal because I was thinking about it for a really long time. For the fact that I was hungry.               I wouldn't get an appetizer because I just don't like appetizers. But, for the main course I have a nice lovely plan for it. I would have sushi, I like sushi. Inside the sushi would be, of course, rice, avocado, and eel maki. There would be a sweet sauce on top, along with soy sauce on the side.               Another part of the meal would be a nice lovely steak. I love steak, especially well-done steak. Along with potato wedges, or fries maybe.               Then, for desert. I always wanted to have ice cream cake. I have never have...

My Childhood Toy

        Another blog post for school, yay.......         When I was a little kid in my home state of Mississippi, things were always just okay back then. I'd always watch VHS tapes, I didn't really watched TV.          But, one day when I was in Kindergarten, I went to the usual discount store that you can find in any small town. It was where you could find antiques on a low price, along with other things like stuffed dolls, broken down bikes, and more. But, when we were there that day. I found a My Little Pony bag filled with original toy ponies, but it wasn't just 1 or 10. There were more than 30.          I was really excited, very excited. I went to my grandparents and showed it to them. They were surprised to find that it was on a really good discount, so they got it for me.          Since that day I played with those ponies, and got more later. Some were from new...

STAR WARS THE LAST JEDI REVIEW

       I watched it during Winter Break, and oh boy did this movie bring such a lovely stir. Some people hated it, other people loved it. On other notes I suppose I will have to look into my own little review of Episode 8 of the Star Wars Saga, the Last Jedi.            This is a no spoiler review, of course, and I will only give insight into the basic things not main story lines.         The story basically picks up right after the Force Awakens , with Rey on a planet with Luke Skywalker, the original hero of the first three movies. This movie has moments when Luke tries to teach Rey the ways of the force, but refuses many times. I honestly think the time on the planet with all the very odd things on it was my favorite part of the whole movie, other than Mark Hamill.          Mark Hamill plays Luke Skwalker, but unlike past movies. Luke is hardened by the failure with Kylo Len(AKA Ben...
