Romeo & Juliet

Quote= "A glooming peace this morning with it brings. The sun for sorrow will not show his head."

Question= What does this mean?

Comment= I believe this means a tragic thing has happened during the hour and its sad and its not shining, the sun cant even believe. I believe this quote can have many different meanings though.

Q= "She'd read somewhere that first love never truly disappeared, that it always lay just under the surface, lingering there, waiting, like dry tinder that only need the touch of a match, a spark, to ignite."

Q= What so powerful or fantasizing about first love ? How is it unforgetable ?

C= Is it so unforgetable because its an experience that lifts you off your feet, or is it something u did that makes it so memorizing such as emabarrasing. Why do so many talk about first love, I don't get how someone can forget about everything else in life just over some person. How can it be special ? Or maybe some people just like to escape and hope for some sort of getaway, maybe its so memorable because it made them feel free. But I guess its impossible to know unless experienced. All I know is its CHEESY ! and lemonsqueezy.

I just recently got a new book which is called "wicked game" by Lisa Jackson
A quick brief of whats going on is twenty years ago a girl named Jessie died and was murdered in a mysterious way, and now its been twenty years later and her bones where found. and her friend becca has relized this, and had a wierd day dream of seeing but it was as if it was real and mac a detective has also found this out, and feels this case is different then all the other ones he has had, this case is different.

Q= Mac expected to experience some kind of satisfied "I told you so" building up inside

Q= why does everyone have these feelings or moments ?

C= I could see how people can gain a feeling of "I told you so", when no one believes them and then they get proof and then they do believe them, But what use is it to say I told you so, its just a waste of time, and if u already knew you were right just keep going and move on people will realize that you were. All that matters is that you believe in yourself and know your right to get anything done.

Quote

The quote I heard in my reading today was by Marianne when she said, "it will be all right." This common quote is repeatedly said every single day by many people. We often hear this quote when there is a problem but the common question answered back is, "nothing will ever be all right." Or their Isn't always happy endings. But there is, we got to learn how to believe, most people just try to act mature when in reality we have to hold a little bit of our childhood to keep us alive. There always is a happy ending even in the real world even though we may not believe in the beginning we got to keep the meaning in our heads at all times.

Media

My definition of media is to endorse a product through magazines ads and communication. But my teacher Ms. Kay said the definition of media is to communicate with others through technology. As my teacher said the definiton a group of my classmates brought up a good point what about gossip it spreads fast goes through a large group of people and does not use technology. So what is media. Media is everywhere and a part of our daily routine. It may blind us from everything else butwe always see it. Does media have to be through technology? As dictinary.com said it is the means of communication, as radio and television, newspapers, and magazines, that reach or influence people widely. But does it have to influence people widely cause i see media, but i never realized it before, never really cared. So i looked at some images and decide that media is idea of communication through others.

Ransom

Wow so, much has happened in the last few chapters of the book.
As for the escape plan it had became a complete failure when Buck had woken up and realized what was going on. This lead to the shot towards Dexters shoulder arm. Bruce and Glenn the two brothers had made for a dash towards the road and after Buck knew dexter was still alive he told Rita not to let Marianne and Jesse and Dexter in the cabin as a punishment while he was gone and heading after the two teenagers Bruce and Glenn. Marianne still was able to convince Rita to let them in the cabin to heal Dexter before it was to late. When Jesse was healing Dexter she found out about his undeveloped arm and suddenly realized so much about Dexter and to finish without any words she kissed him. In the meantime all of the Parents where thinking and having flashbacks of their kids, even Mr. Crete the guardian and uncle of Dexter was thinking of him so much lately and was beginning to have a feeling something wasnt right. Ms. French also go to realize how Jesse was the opposite of her and was never going to be like her and she can't believe whats going on and how this kidnapping took place. Another thing was the article on the frontpage of the newspaper how Mr. Godfrey the missing bus driver was murdered and also showed an article of the missing school bus along the rio grande. Another thing was Mariannes dad Jack Paget wouldn't help pay for the ransom because as soon as he heard the word money he clicked. Also Rod Donavan scheduled a meeting to give the kidnappers their money (which he has not collected) hoping to see Marianne and set up a plan to get her back without the Ransom. Another incident that occured was when Buck was driving after Bruce to run him over Buck drove off the cliff. Bruce found out one thing about his superman brother Glenn that he wasnt the same person the person he thought he was this so called god. He was empty. And while Bruce is going down the cliff to help Buck or to see if he was still alive, Glenn was going to go to the town for help.

ransom

As i was reading ransom alot has happened so far from when we last left off. Almost all of the families have been notified of the ransom except from one family which hasnt even noticed his nephew has been kidnapped. But only two out of four families have came up with all the money and the kidnapper Buck wont settle until he is able to get all of the families ransoms which is 4 out of 4 familes with the ransom a total of 60 thousand dollars, 15 thousand each. they have also now found out that the original bus driver was killed in the beginning in order to make this whole kidnap going to make the substitute driver. This has gotten all of them thinking about the situation and what would happen to them expecially after what they did to the bus driver. Dexter one of the students that is kidnapped has now came up with a plan which he made aware of with all 5 of them students. They all are deciding to escape.
