Last Theory Right And Wrong

                   I have finished the book Forever by Maggie Stiefvater. This is the last book in the series starting from Shiver, then Linger and finally Forever. On my last post, I said that that the last book would be the opposite story of Linger. I am actually wrong and right at the same time for the following reasons.

            One way that I am right is that in the beginning of the book, Grace transforms again to human after months. Before she was a wolf, which she transformed in the last book. This is the opposite because she transformed to the opposite of wolf, human.

            One way that I am wrong is that the opposite characters didn't transform. When Grace usually transforms, Sam transforms after. In this book, he didn't transform. He found out that he could transform whenever he wanted, but he didn't want to for one main reason. To be with Grace forever. 

           At the end of the book, both of them stayed together, and they will forever. I really recommend this series to anyone who like romance and fantasy. People who liked the Twilight series should read this because this series is much better than the Twilight series.

Oppisote Stories?

             I have finished the book Linger by Magie Steifvater three days ago. I noticed something about this book that makes me compare to the first book Shiver. Linger is like the opposite story of Shiver for two reasons. Both books are good and with the same characters, but only opposite stories.

            One way is that in Shiver, Sam turns to a human being. Before that transformation, he was a wolf. In Linger, Grace turns to a wolf at the end of the book. Before, she was a human. It's the opposite characters and opposite transformations.

            The other way is that in Shiver, Sam and Grace fall in love with eachother. In Linger, Grace's best friend falls in love with Cole, Sam's wolf relative who also turned to human in this book Linger.  Another pair fall in love, but also opposite of Sam and Grace.

           There are other ways to show that my statement is right, but these two are more stronger evidence. Linger and Shiver are like opposite stories. Will Forever (last book of series) be opposite stories too? I predict yes because if the second book was opposite, then the same thing would happen to the next book.

Can Humans LOVE Animals?

                I am still not done with the book Linger by Maggie Stiefvater but I am almost done. Linger is the second book of Shiver which is by the same author. The main character is Sam and Grace. While reading this book, I came up with a question, is loving a werewolf the same thing as LOVING an animal? I don't think so.
           Sam used to be wolf, but when a period of time passed, he eventually became human. As he was human, he met Grace and they both fell in love with each other. If Sam was still a wolf, Grace wouldn't have known even Sam. Sam is a human now and was human when he met Grace. So Grace fell in love with a human.
          There is another character introduced in this book named Cole. Cole used to be a wolf like Sam. After a period of time has passed, he eventually became human like Sam. He was a relative of Sam. When Cole transformed, he met Isabel. Now they both are in love. Cole met Isabel as human, like Sam. That means Isabel fell in love with a human.
           These two examples from the book proves my answer. Isabel and Grace fell in love with humans because at that time, Sam and Cole were human already. I would highly recommend Shiver (book 1), Linger (book 2), and Forever (book 3).
          

Everyone Is The Same

           I'm almost done with the book Born On A Blue Day by Daniel Tammet. This book is a memoir about Daniel's life. He is the main character in this book. He basically tells his life in his perspective since he has a special kind of autism. He sees numbers everywhere because of the autism he has. People in this world discriminate people that have autism because they seem different. This book proves that people that have autism live the same as us and not different.
          One way is when he falls in love. Everyone in this world experiences love. If Daniel finds love, then he is just like everyone else in this world. Nothing is different.He also knows the true meaning of love like all of us. He even knows how to deal with it.
          Another way is that he communicates and writes. Everyone in this world communicates by speaking, pointing, etc. Daniel also writes which is what almost everyone does in this world. Writing is also a kind of communication. Nothing is different from us. 
          There's no point in discriminating people by their looks. Once you compare them to us, nothing is different. All of us show emotions and communicate. Everyone in this world is the same. NO ONE is different.

Poverty Among Hispanics (Social awarness 3)

This is based on the video from http://www.democracynow.org/2011/9/29/headlines/study_hispanic_children_largest_group_living_in_poverty


          This video is about how the number of hispanics under poverty have increased dramatically throughout the years. Immigrants have little chance of getting a job since they are illegal. This is why 6.1 million hispanics children are poor since their parents can't find jobs. Most immigrants that get jobs have jobs that are dangerous like construction working.
          Before, poverty rates were 35% hispanics, 39% african-american and 12% white. These were percentages from 2009-2010. The current percentages aren't yet calculated. I can see many hispancs are poor because some have a lot of family members living in one apartment.
          I have seen many people that have no homes, but now it has dramatically increased because I have seen more ad more people living in streets. Earning a job is hard these days since tons of people are applying for that same job.
 

2 Voice Poem(Global Warming)

We all cause Global Warming

It really doesn't matter.

We all should Reuse, Reduce and Recycle to use less waste which goes on water or anywhere.

Why would I waste my time on just sorting garbage. Anyway, it's garbage!

It isn't a waste of time. It saves carbon dioxide for us and other organisms.

It effects all of us. Not only us, but animals.

I only care for myself, not all of us. Why would I care about animals anyway!?

Animals are our brothers. To help them, we must plant as many trees in our neighborhood so the trees could produce carbon dioxide.

Why would I even do that dumb stuff anyway. 

Global Warming is BAD.   


    

Domestic Violence(social awareness #2)

This video is based on the video from youtube (doesn't work in school): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IpzzffsISOQ&feature=related

        Domestic violence is when someone is abusing you(like hitting, rape,etc) because probably that person is addicted to alchohol or drugs. People that deal with this are mostly women. 1 out of 7 women are dealing with domestic violence. These women are treated like this everyday. More than once each day. Men are usually the abusers. Not all, but most.
          These women that get affected get bruises, like the woman in this video, who has a black eye, but covers it with sunglasses. Most women are so scared of their abusers, that they don't tell anyone because they are afraid that they will get abused even more, just like the lady in the video, who doesn't tell her son's principal what's happening since her son hit a girl his class. Maybe someone you know is dealing with domestic violence right now and you don't know. That's how abused these women are.
           It's a very bad decision to do this in front of children because they do whatever their parents do. The parents are role models to kids. In the video, the lady's son is starting to be abusive towards girls because he watches his dad hit his mom. He even told his mom,"Then why do you let him hit you?" This was when I thought the boy learned to hit people from his dad. His dad is a very bad role model.
