The theme of my life has to be happy/ joyful. If you have meet me you will notice that I am always smiling or grinning. I'm the type of person who absolutely hate being in a bad mood. Being in a bad mood is bad luck for me also, if I am mad everything goes the complete opposite the way I wasn't it to go. So everyday before I leave my room to go somewhere I try to be happy and have high spirit about things.

My favorite movie of all time is the first Transformers. Transformers are about robots from a different planet that come to earth and protect man kind from the evil Transformers. At first man kind didn't like the Autobots on earth but then they grew to like them, and the Autobots stay on earth to protect the humans.

Jaylen Pope did her post on the story "Greese". "In the story "Geese" the setting of the story is based in  Japan. Dina who is a native in Baltimore wants to moved to Japan because she wants to make a lot of money. Dina fail to realize the reality of her moving to Japan. She had a job at a amusement park which she ends up quitting her job because the job did not amused her. After she quits Dina wanted to take a vacation in a round trip to different cities in Japan such as Tokyo, Akihabara, Odaiji and Shinjuku. In "Geese"the symbolism in the setting in Japan was that Dina was out of touched with reality and she did not think about what you have to do or go through to get a pile of money. She did not have any type of plan before she left her hometown which left Dina in a world of trouble."http://engl1102pope.blogspot.com/

One of the stories that I read this week was "In A Soldiers Home" This story is taken place in Oklahoma, and the main character name is Kerbs. Kerbs has come home from the war and the war has changed him a lot. He just doesn't have the same fire in his eye and energy level to do anything anymore like he did before he went to the war.

Good topic Isreal Walker

Karen Van Der Zee wrote the short story "From A Secret Sorrow". Karen is famous for her renown literature and her romantic stories. What inspired Karen to write this story is that she wanted to touch people with something romantic with a twist to it and she wanted to tell a story which could happen in real life. This is just one of many of Karen stories that she has written.
