The false mirror

Previously I posted a bunch of pictures by Rene Magritte. I think that the false mirror perfectly portrays Joe in Johnny Got His Gun, especially since all he can do is think. Behind his eyes lays his world not in front of his eyes; which is a different concept for most people whose world lies in front of them, Johnny is left hopeless and completely alone, no one will listen to him or pay him any attention. So to him the most important thing is his mind and not necessarily his body.

Final Exam

So should I bring in my idea for my final exam to see you (Ms. Stariha) before the exam is actually do? OR should I just do it and wait for the surprise factor in it?

PS!!!! IF YOU KNOW WHAT I AM DOING PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT TELL ANYONE!

Today's Discusssion

I really enjoyed today's discussion. I felt as if we got a lot of information. I hope we all do well on the test. I feel as if I know the book so much better than the other books (this might be becuase they are sorta connecting in my mind) (like a big spider web)...

Does anyone else feel desperate when you finish JGHG. I felt like I needed to run and breath, and shout and cry, and fight and love all at once... it was really weird.

Kendra

Just letting everyone know, Kendra is always right.

Been Stressing

Life's been stressful lately but oh well I guess. =P

I haven't really felt like posting on the blog because I haven't had anything important to say.

I've been thinking a lot about how corrupt and messed up the world has become.

A man got arrested for shooting at a thief to warn him and make him stay until the police came. The man who shot a warning fire was also arrested because he was being 'reckless'....he did the right thing by getting this man caught from stealing from his neighbors and he still got in trouble. Things like that just prove how men cannot be Just. They are bad judges...sending innocent to jail and letting the real guilty go free. God is Just...He is a good judge who gives the people what they deserve. =) So, no more innocents getting punished and no more guilty roaming free. Just thought I'd share what was on my mind tonight. =)

Artistic Examples

If anyone wanted to use a painting for their final project here are some really cool ones by Rene Magritte! One of my favorites that I don't want to put on here because of nudity is called "Attempting the impossible" if you like these paintings look it up!
