Blog Entry #5 (optional)

I am just doing this for fun... :),
The things I like and dislike about the film is that they make Lennie seem to old he should be younger because I don't know I just feel like they should take off a couple of years from Lennie because it seems that Lennie is older then George! Now that just doesn't seem right to me. Also I wouldv'e liked it better if they mentioned Curley and his wife a bit more. But what I did love about the film is that I loved all the drama that was going on in the film. For example one of those dramas would be that Curley is always trying to start a fight with George. Another one would be that Curley's wife should be shown a bit more especially with Slim and George.
The things i like and dislike about the book is that Lennie doesn't seem to give up on his rabbits. What I don't like is that George seems to be giving Lennie the idea of him actually being able to tend the rabbits. What I do like is that the book seems to have the perfect characters and also the perfect events.

Bye Lennie: We Will Miss You.

So Lennie is gone....that's sad. I loved Lennie he was my favorite character of the book. I feel sorry that he got shot in the head just because of what he did. He never meant to harm Curley's wife all that happened was that he started touching her hair because she told him too. I think that George shooting Lennie was both bad and good. I think this because George was his best friend and it was better for Lennie to get shot in the head for he can just die fast. The way Curley was going to shoot Lennie was going to be a long and painful death. George had his reasons and I believe that him doing it was better then Curley doing it. This kind of ties up to Candy and his dog, Candy didn't want to kill his dog and I guess maybe George remembered that and thought that it was better if he killed Lennie instead. I believe George killing Lennie was both good and bad and this is where I stand in the end of this story. Poor Lennie he never got to tend the rabbits...but maybe he will where ever he is...

May Candy's dog R.I.P.

Well I believe that Candy's dog should have never been shot. Just because an animal is getting old and doesn't have a lot of time left in his life doesnt mean it should be killed. A dog is a man's bestfriend and the dog should stay with the owner that raised him until the animal passes away. When a senior person (65+) is getting old and can't really work or do anything then they should spend their last days with their family and friends and not get shot in the back of the head just because of age. When Candy heard that his dog had already been shot then of course he reacted, any person that has had a dog for years and knows that the poor creature is useless then they won't care they would want to stay with the animal for as long as they could. The dog was never bothering Carlson so why would you kill it? It wasn't his dog and if it was he wouldn't want someone else shooting his dog in the head! What Carlson did was wrong and I believe that Candy should have been able to keep his old dog and get one of Slim's new puppies that his dog had just had.

Life at School: Part 2.

OK so school....what can I say so far I'm loving high school its an experience that not to many people get to feel when they are my age but me well...I like it because I feel like every teacher that i have is nice to the students and to me and some teachers aren't like that at all. I'm doing really good in school so far I have good teachers and my new friends are great even if they are from a different school. Takoma Park Middle School students never really got along with students from SSI or Eastern but now that I look at it. Why? We come from different schools different backgrounds and different neighborhoods but so what we all come to Blair High School to learn and have fun. Teenagers shouldn't be hated just because of what school they come. Things that I don't like about school is that I feel like its to crowded!!! The SAC is way to crowded for lunch and when it comes to the 6 minutes before 6th period lunch Blair Blvd. is way to crowded. If I could change this school I would change maybe a couple of things like they should let Juniors out for lunch not just Seniors and we should be able to use our cellphones during lunch but only in the SAC or outside. I feel like school should be a place where students want to come to school not because they have to but because they want to. for students to become more excited about school the school staff should give us a chance for us to tell them what we want and for them to make at least one thing come true. if  a student says he/she wants more privileges then the staff should consider one of this options. Well i guess that's all i have to say about school today! Talk to you guys soon! :) -Bye
