So we have to post about anything today so I just want to say that I'm really glad school is over but I will miss everyone in my gtoup. They have become such a big part of my day they make me laugh when I'm feeling down, Mario and I talk about random things that make my day sometimes. We all get along very well I'm going to miss them a lot.

English Notes 5/16/17
                                                 IGNITE TALK  1: Why is there still racism if it 2017?  2: I talked about my topic with my mom and a family friend and looked at some websites over break.  3:  I learned the different thoughts of people that I asked why racism still exists and who they blame it on.  4: One connection i saw was when we did the potluck in December and saw all the different types of food and drinks. 5: I'm going to read more articles and interview more people to get their is opinion.
" I don't care as long as you do " - Dr. Preston
QUESTIONS ON pgs: 148-158 1: it was a joke since they are in a book, it's ironic considering how they live. 2: he still cares because he's a human being that can feel and the author was to show us how different he is now 3: Grangers grandfather's hands left a mark in the world, they changed it in ways other wouldn't. Mildred hands did nothing changed nothing and will not leave a mark in the world after dying. 4: the book is not important its the idea that it holds. 5: the 3 seconds for me is the feeling of forever in those e seconds before history is all gone 6: the way that it dies and is reborn in its ashes not remembering anything of what it did in it last life unlike us that know what we did in the past 7: it shows how Montag has grown from taking orders without questions to someone that is seen as a leader and that people are willing to follow.
I did not like how the book ended. I thought it would show more of Montags life.
                                      RUN MONTAG RUN I think in the end Montag will be able to start over somewhere else maybe with Faber and final understand his own feelings and be able to think for himself
                                         THE CHASE IS ON 1. Because he was running away after killing Beatty 2. With the flame gun, shooting it into the air then exploding 3. He realized that Beatty wanted to die because he did nothing to try to save himself 4. He went to a gas station and cleaned himself up then decided to go to Fabers house 5. He almost got ran over, thinking it was a cop
                                            MONTAG KILLS I think montag killed him because he wanted to protect Faber
1. Montag is looking for a better understatement  of the books while Mildred is worried about someone finding out and burning the house down along with  burning the books and only caring about her "family". 2. Society believes that the war is nothing to worry about and that it will be over fast. 3. He was an English professor that was kicked out, say and talked on a bench with Montag and has the answers he seeks.  4. He became frustrated and started saying shut up because he was trying to read a book to memorize it but the commercial kept going, he just wanted to focus on something that was actually important. 5. He believes that the others think they're dangerous because they hold the power to change the point of view for some one and it can be as dangerous as a weapon. 6. The green small object allowed Montag and Faber to talk and eat so Montag can get information. 7. The clowns intertwine and amuse the audience to keep them from questioning the government and eve
1: montag said it was illegal to read them. He probably just wanted to watch them burn or something 2: they can fly you away/take you away with your thoughts 3: montag lives a very simple boring life while clarisse questions everything and talk a lot with her family 4: their technology is quite similar today's but not the same exactly. Although they have such nice things Mildred still wants to commit suicide and is depressed 5: to see the turning point in his life 6: to compare the two woman and the effects they have on Montag 7: they don't want to pay for the fire department to come or they just want to be safe 8: she requires emergency services because she tried to overdose so they needed to pump her stomach 9:
                                        THE LOVE S SONG My first impression of this was that the man is depressed or had a bad day and is questioning everything and every he's questioning life and himself. But mostly confusing at times
Are there ways to fall asleep faster ?
I'm not sure if Gatsby is a good person or not

                                   The Great Gatsby Notes Chapter 3 His=Gatsby  "Think of it as a movie" - Preston   " " - irony "little party" People think Gatsby killed a man Easy Egg(looks down on every one) West Egg (Gatsby,Nick,Tom,Daisy)
                                 The Great Gatsby Notes Why is Tom showing Nick the woman he is cheating on Daisy(his cousin) with? Why doesn't Nick say anything to Tom about cheating on Daisy? Does Mrs. Wilson not feed and that she is having and affair with Tom?  Does Mrs. Wilson not feel sorry for Daisy? Does she not have any shame? 
                                     The Great Gastsby Notes What makes people open up so easy to Nick? Why does Daisy think that the best thing a girl can see be is a beautiful little fool. Seaward Did Gatsby get kidnapped? What is the green light? Did Gatsby go to the green light? Epigraph
                                                      Gatsby If I was at a party like Gatsbys and my host is no where in sight I would most likely go home is I was not enjoying myself. I would be a lift pissed off because you invite me to your party then when I get there you don't say hello or even show up.
                             Gatsby chapter 1 remix In chapter one we meet a man named Nick, he just came back from the war and is homeless because the man that he was going to live with left him on his own. So he lives in a cardboard box surrounded by nice houses. For some reason every one is comfortable telling him everything about themselves but he's so sick of hearing every crap every day. Until one day his neighbor Gatsby starts to talk to him and telling something from he's past that really intrigued Nick. He soon learns that he has a cousin that lives in one of those nice houses so he reaches out to her and she invites him for dinner. When he's at his cousins house we learned that his cousin Dasiy is married with one kid and that her racist husband Tom is cheating on her with a woman in NYC. Daisy knows about her cheating husband but plays dumb for the future of her baby girl. When Nick goes back home he sees his neighbor Gatsby standing in his front yard staring at

                                        MUSIC AS LITERATURE Yes, music is literature. Literature is creative writing, music is creative art. They both are ways to express yourself , say what's on your mind, its a way to communicate to others and express how you feel etc. Its vocalized poetry. It's a layer of emotion and understanding.
