"Would We Be Killed" and "Life on the Rez"

It was difficult for some of the chiefs, because the Americans have informed them that they were going to take them to a school and tach them language.  But as they been sent to a school, it was something that Ota Kte's didn't really expect.  He had to be teach how to be something else other than living as a Native American,  they taught him how Americans act, talk, what they ware, and what they are known for.  The mission for the Americans Ota realized is that they want to take away Native Americans there beliefs, clothing, language, and create the young kids in their own image.  It has even been said in the article on page 12, "Pratt believed that the children need to completely abandon their "Indian-ness" in order to succeed in America.  This proves that the Native Americans youth have been taken from their tribes, and been taught to be something else to leave there own race to fit in with another race.

Luther had something different compared to what Shanice has because Shanice could decide what she wanted to be, but Luther had to be forced to be from an Native American to a full grown wealthy American. Shanice was like other races, kept her pride of being a Native American, and wanted to have an education to be successful. The only thing that Shanice and Luther have something similar, is that they felt different being somewhere that they rarely go to. It was different for Luther to be reminded that he has to be a American, and Shanice felt different because she was at college to be a success. But around those times Luther was forced to do what they want, and for Shanice U.S.A. is more peaceful now then it was back then. So she had more options to do what Shanice wanted then what Luther wanted.

After the last blog of blog #2 he explains more about his family.  It turns out he was actually adopted, but these people aren't really like any other family.  They don't really smile they don't really have like any fun in them.  But the biggest problem that he has to go through is that his family adopted another son.  Which turns out to be his bully Stevie.  It seems so shocked to him about who is gonna be all close and get to hurt even more because Stevie will have the ability to get closer to his prey(Jamie).  So he is still on his road to glory of being a comedian.  He shows his room that is actually in a  garage. He even says this is where he'll have extra back up wheels and he did so much in the garage he stays in.  He explains that this is where he finds and reads most books to become a comedian.  He has this desk where he focuses and make joke books that he made himself like in stacks.  So then it had to come the point where he was trapped because Stevie was already knocking on Jamies door.  He started to think of the possibilities that Stevie will do to Jamie and he had no choice but to feel like he couldn't go anywhere.  He doesn't talk about what happen after Stevie knocked on his door to his room, but he did mention that he found a way to make money from his talent.  He goes to this beach called long beach.  He says its called that because its like a mile or something crazy like that.  He talks about everything he sees here and then has this little things where he will crack up people from a joke and make them laugh  for like about 53 cents. Then on he know he was catching up. 
           So over spring I had some goals that I didn't complete but I've gotten further in the book as you can see.  It's been kind of so long,  I was really enjoying my spring break too much I have forgotten to read.  But there will be more to talk about what I have read.  I noticed that he's not only a slacker or a joker, but he is very creative.  Like even his jokes, but I saw a part in Jamie that he was actually pretty smart.  Like when he came to the beach he says there are so many faces he sees, Hispanics, Germans,  Italians and more.  So he comes up with a name for the beach as the United Nations Beach.  I honestly thought it was creative and clever.  Like not a lot of people have a gift of being creative but everybody has a talent to show to the world.  But then I don't know how he is like strong,  he knows he has a lot to go through but he has fun even when it comes to something negative.  Like being disabled from below,  having adoptive parents who look like they don't have a soul, and having your local bully as your adopted brother?  Man he has a lot of heart not to even go to the point where he wish he was in another place.  But then to the subject about the beach I feel like it's another beach that is actually real but I think it is, I honestly don't really know,  there might actually be a real  beach called long beach,  or im just really stupid to not know a popular beach that everybody's knows.  But so far in the book it seems very smooth I still have a lot to get into from the pages I have read, see you in blog #4.

Right after the first blog it went to his two good friends.  The ones who been there for him to get him up, like literally get him up after Stevie  punched him.  Right after that he introduces them.  He talks about what type of person they are.  Gaynor has a lot of tattoos and piercings.  Pierce is the person to tell you the rumors and the news and everything.  So he understand a lot of things from school like I kinda have a big connection between the book and me.  Like everything that I see in school is what he talks about, well some of the things.  The rubbery pizza, and the sawdusty stuff the sprinkle around the puke puddle.  It was like he knew the same thing.  But then he gets to the zone where he talks about his crush and how he would talk about her and she'll never notice him.  He doesn't really have hope or confidence for himself.  Like he didn't exist.  He mentions about his uncle owning a diner.  He is for sure doing everything he could to show that its the best place ever.
        I have like change feelings for this book, because like I said I don't know if i like it that much but its good enough to have me feel like I'm not alone.  Compared to other books are probably guys in there mid 30's trying to come up how school is for kids, but this one is not like other books.  Well maybe this one book I was gonna read but end up being too much for me; if i put more time to this book then it's probably gonna end up my just write book.  I wonder if this book will be in color.  I like it, I would recommend to anybody who is the type who is not use to reading that much, or just hate a lot of big books that talks about science fiction and a track star winning a golden trophy.  Not a lot of books are like these, this kind is a little more interesting.  

Tolerance

Tolerance= Ability or willingness to allow the existence, occurrence, or practice of something, in particular the existence of opinions or behavior that one does not necessarily agree with.


The things I'll do to have tolerance, is to think before I say or do something.  I have to understand why they wanna be what they choose to be.  If something makes people happy I'm gonna have to accept it cause I wasn't raised as someone who will have hatred on someone for what makes them happy.  I really have no problem with gays,  it's their decision in their lives, and choose what they wanna do because they shouldn't change who they are because someone has a problem with it.  If someone chooses to be different then other then thats them, why should people judge people for what makes them happy?  If they want to be a homosexual then thats them.  I will never look down on anybody if they are gay or lesbian.  People really have to accept what someone is interested in.  Nobody should make the people decisions for them.  

Diary Of A Wimpy Kid The Long Haul Blog 2

From the last blog a lot has change of me not blogging I apologize, but I'll try to explain of what happened from there.  After Gregs mom set on the spanish learning CD to make the trip more educational that Greg really dislikes, he is still in the back of the car with all the stuff his family brought a long to the trip.  But as it was getting over he started to get hungry.  His mother gave him a bag that was really much for 5 year olds, that had his name in cursive and a fruit and a sandwich.  He is still bummed out that everything around him always makes events turn out the way they are not to.  But every little things that happens he has a connection.  But then to the storyline they needed to find things to get from the grocery store and a motel to stay in.  His big brother Rodrick was volunteer to get the supplies to make sandwiches for the family to eat but turns out he does the opposite...  During the time Rodrick was in the store they had a problem with the little brother Manny.  Manny has a problem of going crazy when someone interrupted his sleep.  So then they do everything to stay quiet and get the food they needed for the trip.  But as always Rodrick does the opposite of what they tell him to do.  He gets what he wants from the store for the family everything that he likes instead of groceries that involves them being healthy for the family.  But then short story long.  They go through crazy events when the events are still horribly boring.  But at the end of every book theres always a happy ending.  So Greg finally gets home from staying in the car, from going to the ugly motel, from going to a festival, and then to home.
          Well to be honest i feel bad for Greg,  like he is on a trip to have fun not to learn even more.  I would've give up on everything if someone had to be very educational about everything.  Well his mom should just understand they should do something their kids enjoy.  I see how their mom wants to be educational and all but there is such thing as school we have to go through for 14 years.   But then through out all the education its still for the youths future.  But then its good that every end to the history of something very opposite you expected, always have its moments that you know you enjoy and appreciate to be there with that someone.
            From what i read,  I feel that the message is that you should appreciate every moment you have with somebody.  Well not really but I seek that in it a little.  But it's something like I said in the last paragraph.  Well I notice it always happens in every Diary Of  A Wimpy Kid book I read.  They always begin by something going his way, then to something thats gonna ruin all of Gregs of his plans, then on to the part where

So far in the book actually kinda caught my attention on this one.  It started off with one kid named Jamie who is disabled below.  He started on a stage as someone who don't know what joke to crack.  But he probably make jokes here and there to be different.  He sees people as humans, more like people who are just people who are like numb brained.  He wanted to be a comedian, he looks up jokes,  and read so many joke books so he could come up with his own.  He uses his ability to be funny at school to escape beating from bullies.   He tells me that people that bullies don't read the signs that tries telling that his school is about no bullying area in the school, well you already could tell that that it goes the opposite.  The bully people may know is Stevie Kosgrov, like I said he uses jokes to escape a beating.  He sees a kid being upside and shaken by Stevie for money to drop out of his pockets.  Jamie didn't like it at all, because he's been in that position before.  As he approaches to the bully and takes jokes and throw it at Stevie.  Mainly the kid who is getting bullied laugh through the whole thing, but not as much as Stevie cause he knew he tried getting the victim out.  So finally a joke made Stevie laugh and drops the kid and dies of laughter.  But then it goes wrong for Jamie cause Stevie rage goes on him.
     Ok before I read this, I was looking to read this before but I felt like it wasn't right for me.  But then it was something I didn't really expect it to be a pretty decent book.  I kinda like it so far, like its not good and its not bad its like its in between.  He seems like one of the low kid levels, like you know people who are popular and the kids that aren't.  But he does get bully.  I'm hoping the story will get my attention and make me wanna stay with the book.  Cause like the Diary Of A Wimpy Kid had like its own way for people to read it like its own font and everything, and the story line makes it funny.  But it has to be a good book cause they made more then one. 

Blog one, The Long Hual

In this new book Diary Of A Wimpy Kid always has something to do with having a horrible adventures through school, friends.  But now his mom surprised him on going to a road trip.  Through out the book he mainly exaggerate of how much this trip is gonna suck.  One of the problems that use to be around is when his parents kind of argued out the problem with Greg's dad.  The problem that they hold on too was a boat he purchased.  It wasn't as a good surprise to his wife which is Greg's mother.  They don't really fight they just argue a little and cover it up.  It was difficult to buy a boat and have no place to put it, so when they try finding a place they used there drive way which didn't work with the neighborhood.  From there they are getting ready to pack up there stuff for the trip.
