Hey guys, sorry I took a long brake from this I got busy with college and work. College isn’t as boring as I thought many things to do and many people to meet. Yet college can be very difficult for me at times especially when I’m behind in class because of work. Anyways glad to be back and I’ll be posting more here in the future :)

As I already have a week or two in college I quickly found out the professors and school was soo different from each other for me it took a week to get used to it. My classes so far are really interesting and I’m having a lot of fun being in them. Although it’s fun they give you a lot of information to take in in the short amount of time you have with them. Thankful to my high school English teacher Dr. David Preston he got me ready for this chance in my life telling us and explaining about the times he  taught in UCLA. As well with him telling us what to take notes on and how to get ready for college. To add to that, he also taught us so many life lessons and wonderful information I would never forget.

So Saturday morning the saint's band and I had the Elks parade and it felt faster than the other times we had a parade the crowd loved our new uniforms and the music we played which was stars and stripes forever, treasure, and our fight song. I'm glad I had spent my 4 high school years with amazing musicians and the made high school year a year to remember during my lifetime.

Nathaniel- setting up you’re time management can be really easy in a way you have smart phones that can remind you as well with calendars before you wanna do something and you remember you have to do something put you’re phone away because social media can be a distraction to getting things down and it can help you plan ahead of time. Jose- most people say that guns are used for protection for there house or them self. In 1996 there have been 78 school shootings and in 2019 there had been 8 shooting this year. Lizbeth- Most veterans which are 80% are females and they treat any kind of animal you can think of. Cats and dogs are most allergic to Grapes, chocolate and garlic. Ernie-The main cause of car crashes are people who drive under the influence, reckless driving, speeding, running red lights, and losing control of steering wheel. The things we can do to prevent car crashes would be get out off your phone, don’t drink and drive. Cynthia- in art you need to know how everythin...

          Well at first my big question was about life choices but as I kept doing more and more research it leads into hard choices and how to understand them. We all do them maybe not as often as other people for example it could be between a certain college, military, working, or place to live. For me it’s either deciding between my major Administration of Justice or military. I think that we misunderstood them and the role they play in our lives. Understanding hard choices can uncover a hidden power each of us have. What makes a choice hard is the way the alternatives relate in some ways the other is better in some ways, but neither is better than the other overall. In an easy choice one alternative is better than the other one.          Staying at home can be better in some ways and moving out can be better in other ways but none is better than the other over all. We shouldn’t think that all hard choices are big but realizing that...

Kevin’s masterpiece- there are 3 main parts of getting a tattoo the link (intense) , the needle , and the transfer gel. You have to have a reason why to have or get a tattoo if you don’t have a reason to get it then you can regret it for the rest of you’re life. Janessa’s masterpiece- you can freeze skin cells and if we can find a way to freeze organs then we can live pretty much for ever. Psychedelic science got reduced by 80% depression mental disorders and anxiety. Josue- When doing DJ is all about being you’re self and having fun and making it you’re own style. With you’re own music it can impact someone it might not be right away it may take time but when you do  it’s the best feeling you can have as long as you try by you’re self. Rodrigo- fins something you’re passionate about then do it and don’t follow or do things that you’re friends are passionate about. The average person changes majors 12 times in there life time and if you’re patient then you can do it. Evelyn...

In Brave New World there are so many characters who question everything in the Reservation. In this essay I will be talking about John and how he questioned everything throughout the book. John is the only person in Brave New World who was born naturally by a mother. He represented a unique human being in this book with an identity and a family relationship unlike any other character in this book. John grows up in a squealer of the Savage Reservation and is treated differently then anyone else. Linda turns out to be the mother of John which is very different in the World State. At some point of the book she visits the Reservation and finds out she is the mother while the ex-director is the father. When there was a meeting on Bernard discussing if he should get banished to the Iceland John comes in calling the '' ex- director'' " daddy" but he denies everything and the crowed started laughing because they think it is a sick joke. After Linda and John proved i...

Just finished my ignite talked today and I was super hyper and nervous at the same time I accidentally forgot to say something which was the connection I did. My hyper ness and my nervousness was fighting because before English I was scuba diving in my 4th period class and I got nervous to go up there.

I just watched  the Avengers endgame and it was an amazing movie!!! Probably #1 in my list of favorite movies out there But the end really got to everyone just wished there was a happy ending to it. “Love you 3000”

So a week before spring brake I was excited because I had things planned to do over the brake but like any brake we take I end up getting lazy and not doing anything I had planned for example pools, hiking, beach, etc now I just been at home realizing it’s Friday  and we go back to school next week!

My masterpiece is about life choices but as I did more research about it, it lead my into hard choice  and how to deal with them. During my masterpiece I will be discussing about how to make a hard choice easy and how to better understand your choices. One thing I did was to explore my big question topic by doing research on Google and by watching YouTube videos. I learned that a hard choice doesn’t  necessary mean that one choice is better than another, but they are both equal. One connection I see is that I had to make a choice in the beginning   of the year on whether  or not to do traditional high school English class or do what I am/or we doing right now.  Next I will be figuring the right steps on how to make a hard choice easy.

Bernard and Helmholtz say goodbye to John and Bernard  apologizes for the scene in mods office. John asks Mond if he can go with them to the island but Mond refuses because he wants to continue “the experiment”. The next day some reporters come to interview him but John kicks one reporter and angrily demands they respect his solitude and the newspaper publish the incident and more reporters flock to johns home. Fans o soon visits John and chant as the crowd chants Lenina steps out of a helicopter and walks toward him with her arms open. John calls her a strumpey and proceeds to whip her. After midnight the helicopters leave and John collapses from the soma and the extended “frenzy of sensuality” When he awakes the next day he remembers everything with horror and having read about the “orgy of atonement” in the papers a swarm of visitors descends on Johns lighthouse discovering that he had hanged him self

Ooo as Helmholtz leaves to check on Bernard John and Mustapha Mond keeps going with their philosophical argument. Their conversation in chapter 16 is about converted human experience and institutions that they have abolished as well in chapter 17 they discuss religion and religious experience. As Helmholtz leaves to check on Bernard John and and Mustapha Mond keeps going with their philosophical argument their conversation in chapter 16 is about converted human experience and institutions that they have abolished as well in chapter 17 they discuss religion and religious experience. Mond shows John his collection of banned religious writings and reads aloud long passages from nineteenth century French philosopher. John protests that is the people of the world state believe in god they would not be degraded by their pleasant vices then he  declares that he wants god, poetry, real danger, freedom, goodness, and sin Mond tells him that his wishes will lead to unhappiness and John ...

The police leave Bernard, Helmholtz, and John in the Monds office they wait for a while then Mond arrives. He sees John and he tells him “ so you don’t like civilization,  Mr. Savage.” Then John admits that he does like some things but not all such as the constant sound of music but then Mond responds quoting Shakespeare but John is surprised that he has read Shakespeare. Mond mentions that a society based on “consumerism”  just like the world state needs citizens who want new things then he goes off that newness is more important then intrinsic value and high art must must be suppressed to make room for the room.

His not seeing people as people but as test humans. John is encounters two Bokanovsky groups of delta twins picking up their soma rations after their shift.  John cries to them to stop taking the soma rations while he tells them that it is poison then ask them to take freedom. “ how many goodly creatures are there here! How beauteous mankind is! O brave new world. O brave new world” Bernard ask for help from the cop and he falls to the floor like if his legs where made out of jelly. Then he says that behind the police men has switch off and the room is left silent. The police men have a water gun but the gun is filled with medication and that is what Bernard goes down and couldn’t feel there legs. Bernard has taken this time to move towards the door and he ends up escaping.

John hurries to the hospital and he whispers impatiently to a nurse that he wants to see his mother and he starts to blush furiously at his use of word “mother” the nurse takes him to Linda’s bed. When John gets there he sits next to her crying while he is trying to remember all the good times they had. While that is happing a group of  eight year Bokanovsky boys gathered around Linda’s bed and they ask why is she so fat and ugly. John angers the nurse when he strikes one offensive child the nurse criticized him for interfering with the children’s death conditioning and leads them away from Linda’s bed. Linda mistakes John for pope and he shakes her hand demanding that she recognizes him as her son She says his name and starts to recite phrase from her childhood and then begins to choke he quickly rushes to the nurse but Linda is dead by the tile they get to her room John sobs while the nurse worries about the damage done to the children’s death conditioning then she hands...

Linda was getting read to go out with a friend and Henry Foster asked her with which friend and named some but each time he said a name Linda shook her head. Henry started to tell her that she should go to the doctor then he said “ a doctor a day keeps the Jims- jams away” he added then he adds that she needs a pregnancy substitute but Linda was still silence then Henry said that she needs a V.P. Later that night Lenina explains to fanny she still doesn’t know how it feels to sleep with a “savage” Fanny warns her that it’s unseemly to be obsessed with a person and that she should find someone else to take her mind off him but Lenina  says that she only what’s John and no one else. Lenina takes a soma to visit John and she is indenting to seduce him. John falls to his knees and starts to quote parts from Shakespeare to explain his feelings. Lenina ask why he hasn’t said anything about his feelings then he starts to talk about marriage and declares his love to her. Lenina pr...

I was going over my word and found this document from last semester from a government debate we had and I was placed on this topic and on the yes side (hints the name and everything else) but this is what I got as my part but I’m posting it to see you’re thoughts on it. Should abortion be legal in the USA? Yes Opening Statement       My team members and I believe that abortion should be legal in the US because it’s a right to allow women to have the decision to do what they want with their own body. Having the choice on what happens to a women’s body can empower them in having a choice in the matter. By simply giving them the option, it gives women the ability to control their future. Although many frown upon the idea of getting an abortion there are many scenarios in which a women has the right to make that decision for herself. Legalizing abortion has a better outcome for a woman than getting it illegally done and having it be unsafe for her mentally and health w...

Bernard is around a big event filled with important people he had promised them that they will have the change to meet the “savage” but as they go here John didn’t what to leave his room. Bernard is embarrassed and humiliated in front of them as well with the Arch-Community-Songster. The Arch Community Songster warms Bernard to be more careful in his criticisms to the world state. Bernard dink’s back into his former melancholia. Bernard ends up grateful and resentful that Helmholtz gives him the friendship he needs. Helmholtz has gotten himself into trouble for reading some unorthodox rhymes to his students at the collage. Bernard his pills to go into a soma and leave his feeling back. The poetry enraptured Helmholtz but when John reads a passage from Romeo and Juliet and about Juliet’s parents trying to persuade her to marry Paris.

I been doing my big question which is about life choices but I only got so far and don’t know what else to put or what to say it’s like I hit a wall but so far I’m thing of what else to put
