Othello; Jealousy

I think this picture describes jealousy because the baby is jealous of his little sister because she is getting more attention than he is. This happens a lot in real life. When kids have to deal with a new baby sister or baby brother, they either like them or they're jealous of them.

This picture descirbes jealousy because the girl is jealousy of a couple that she sees. This could often be because she doesn't have a boyfriend or something could have happened in her last relationship to where she doesn't like seeing happy couples.

This girl is just staring at this other couple, this could be because she likes him too or she doesn't have a boyfriend or something.

this little girl is jealous because she sees these two kissing proibably doesn't even know what they're doing but she doesn't like it.

this girl could be jealous because this other girl could have somebody she likes, or have things that she wants but can't get.

I guess the only thing I can relate to in the book was when Ruth was thinking about abortion. My sister was about to have a her baby aborted because she had just started college, her and her boyfriend weren't married yet. A baby would've affected her school a lot. She had to take off of over a year of school to put her dreams on hold so she could take care of things that she had to do with her daughter. She had to get a part time job since she now had to take care of herself and her daughter. I'm sorry I couldn't make this post any longer...I really can't think of anything else to say

MY American Dream

I would like to become a physicians assistant. It will take me many years after high school to achieve this goal but I do have a back up plan. After I become a physicians assistant, I will move to Miami and work at one of the hospitals there. Typical day in my life as a physician assistant would be getting up, getting my children up, getting them breakfast and taking them to school, go to work, pick my children up from daycare and head home, cook dinner and get them ready for bed and head to bed with my husband. I won't see my family much since they'll all live about 14 hours away and I'll have a busy scheduel. But I will visit when I can, or even have them come visit me whenever they can. I'll have a house, large enough for me and my family and extra room for other children that I may have or whenever family comes to visit. Achieving this dream makes me happy because I'll be able to give my children everything they want and I'll live in a place that has warm weather and I'll get to visit the beach more often. Florida is a much better place than here.

3rd quarter blog post #1

The first author says that the American Dream has to do with equality, not wealth. The second author believes that the American Dream has everything to do with money. The first author believe in sharing and making sacrufuces for others. The second author believed that the American Dream is being rich. Making money for your family. The first author brings up "city upon a hill" sermon. Which I believed, talking about making sacrifices for others. In the sermon, governor Winthrop said "We must be willing to abridge ourselves of our superfluities for the supply of others' necessities," The second author basically was saying that everyone's lives revovle around money. People always ask the simple question "what do you do for a living?" Clearly stating that the American Dream is being wealthy. I knew more about what the second author was talking about. I kind of agreed with both of them. I understand making sacrifices for others, but I also understand that if you don't have money, then you don't really have anything. My answer was similar to the second author's, but the first author made me think more about it and what I had said in my answer.

Mosaic:

I did this mosaic on Elie. I chose the cross because it represents how he was in the beginning and how much faith he had. I chose these words because I feel like they describe how he felt during the concentration camp. I used changing words aslo because he changed a lot during the Holocaust. Some of the changes were good and some were bad. Elie probably wasn't the only person in the concentration camps that felt like this. I'm sure all of them felt this way but they adapted to the changes in a different way. I tried to make it so that the words at the bottom of the cross kind of faded because Elie lost hope and faith during the Holocaust.

 

To Chardonnay: I like the shape and color that you used. The words describe what character you used. Good job.
