Johnny's+1st+Journal

[] The website I'm gonna talk about is the one named sound cloud, a free electronic music site for all the fans and musicians to upload the music they created, I go there every single day to check on the newly updates and try to find out the music that fits my taste. I used to play electro music with my friends back in BC, but now since I lost my way to universities, I can no longer play with them anymore, plus I don't got my own devices with me either. Then, I got this website, a lovely paradise for all the electro funs to enjoy, for every one in the club, this site is incredible, but only if you are on to electro musics, if not, it will just means nothing for you. = = =2nd Journal= This "Twins" is totally a confusing story, I think this story is really hard to understand clearly. I just simply cannot figure it out. I thought the writer himself will be the murderer because he said "It’ll work, all right. It’s going to work.��� and pulled the trigger once, twice, three times." I believed that he committed the murder of his wife. But in the end the police found the body of the writer himself, that means it must be his wife who did it first to kill him. This, this just doesn't make any sense at all. I don’t get it, who killed who? I mean, in those last two paragraphs, it should be the writer killing his wife, not being killed her. However, it turned out to be the opposite. This one is definitely a mysterious story, a fiction, I normally enjoys detective stories, but there has to the a truth, I can't just guess it, since the writer had built up a suspense about the story, there has to be an ending to satisfy that need of the truth.

=** 4th Journal **= We are all adults or almost adults right now, it will be ok for us to talk about death, even though we were talking about murders, I think it's still reasonable because there is no such thing as perfect murder, and the finding clues along the reading is quite interesting for me. I'm not totally agree about the idea and the main reason of that is people around my age are not emotionally stable, they may plot their own murder by themselves, everything has its pros and cons. As for me, I used to be very imaginary, however, with the growing with my age, I kind of lost that part, even I was always absent minded in some of my class. I often got lost in my imaginary world, it's complicated to explain about this, some part of my mind is telling me not to be a nerd, not to be a wiredo, but I also don't wanna be an unrealistic guy who just lives inside his imaginary world. You got be both realistic and imaginary, that's hard to keep this on the same page. I've always hated my father due to his lack of imagination and he always mock at mine, but right now, just at this moment, I've changed my mind. I'm already a grown man now, I must focus on the fact that I must have to face, I gotta be more mature than just a video game boy.

=5th Journal= The topic of our story is “The invisible magic paperclip causes trouble in Hamilton���. It is a fantasy and the sub-genre is suspense. The presentation will be folmed. At the beginning of our story, we created imaginary world. A world that is totally different than reality. It has its own law, own geography, own animals, own people and so on. Since the story is a fantasy, magic will be a significant element. We have to create the rules for the magic, of what is the required action and what is the possible action. Only by creating rules we will make our story believable. Our story consists of 2 different worlds.

=9th Journal= Boo Radley from ‘To Kill a Mockingbird��� by Harper Lee and the strange man in ‘What’s He Building Down There��� by Tom Waits provided the audience with a image of a mysterious man doing things that are creepy. First of all, both of the characters are doing something that is unknown by the outsiders and it disturbed the neighborhood. "Boo was locked in the courthouse basement" (Harper Lee, 14) and The man (Tom Waits) who hides in the basement will never socialize with other people. This shows that both of them are doing or planning something that is unusual and mysterious. We don't know for sure whether they are doing something that is insane or not, but we know for sure that the habits of not socializing with other people is what makes the audience think that they are doing something strange.

When I was grade 9, in the Chinese literature class, I was chatting with my friends and the principle walking through my class and he saw me talking while I was looking at him. I was laughing because of my friend's joke. Unfortunately, he thought I might be laughing at him because he is short and he has bald. Some naughty students made joke of his appearance. But I did not mean anything about that. That was misunderstanding. He did not believe that and he did not give me a chance to explain. What a mean guy! .He called me out and I was punished. I had to clean the whole floor of the class for 1 day. I was very disappointed but I was helpless. My parent did not know that. Compare to Scout, he got in worse trouble like me. His teacher misunderstood him but he can not explain it to her,since then, he became a liar in her eyes.

= 10th Journal = I remembered back to 2003, my mother invited Mrs. Liu, a distant relative from the countryside to have a dinner with my family before the spring festival. Mrs. Liu and her son came to my house. The boy was my classmate when I was in kindergarten. I do not really like him, because he is an Vulgar boy. When we had dinner together, he always tried to take all of the food on the table. At the first I tried to not be impolite, but he reckoned a lot of tricks to annoy me. He did it deliberately to make me become furious. When he tried to take my food, I became anxious and screamed without any mortification, "Get out off my house, you filthy redneck!��� Everyone on the table was shocked, and after the dinner, my mum told me that I was wrong, she was very angry and I was forced to apologize to him.

=11th Journal=

1)a) Pick someone you do not like in your life. Explain why you do not like them. Then try to empathize with their situation. Explain life from their perspective.

I hate person who has bad personality. I have friend, she is a liar. she always tells some thing bad behind other back. She destroys other friendship. I do not know why she treats people like that. i hate her and we were not friends anymore. I try to empathize her many times but she did it like her habit. She is talkative so i think she feels free when she knows something about others. After that she makes it up and tell to somebody. I believe that if she is still not stop lying, she will not have friend. No one wants to have friend who tell bad thing behind their back.

2) Where does evil come from? Find one example of PURE EVIL in the world today. Link to a newspaper article about this evil. Explain at least two details from my newspaper articleto help you understand where this evil came from. Evil comes from their environment. Their family also affect them

=**12th Journal**= 'Boo Radley. You were so busy looking at the fire you didn't know it when he put the blanket around you.' My stomach turned to water and I nearly threw up when Jem held out the blanket and crept toward me. 'He sneaked out of the house-turn 'round-sneaked up, an' went like this!'"

Even though Scout appears frightened to hear that Boo Radley was only inches from her, she is beginning to realize that the mysterious man is trying to protect and befriend her. Boo gains the sympathy of Scout and the reader in this passage. Chapter 9

"Atticus said, 'You've a lot to learn, Jack.' 'I know. Your daughter gave me my first lessons this afternoon. She said I didn't understand children much and told me why. She was quite right. Atticus, she told me how I should have treated her-oh dear, I'm so sorry I romped on her.'"

[|Uncle Jack] admits that Scout has taught him a lesson. Atticus has brought Scout up by instilling in her wisdom and compassion beyond her years. Here, she proves wiser than Uncle Jack, a grown man. In truth, Scout is much like Atticus -- she has strong moral principles and can explain things to people in ways that allow them to understand her perspective.

=13th Journal= People always prefer call somebody "Hero" who did some helpful thing for people, however I do not think so. Everyone have different justice in their mind.In my opinion, a simple person also can be a hero such as Mrs.Dubose in the novel "to kill a mockingbird". In the story, Mrs.Dubose get a very serious sick, she will very agony without pain-killer."she said she was going to leave this world beholden to nothing and nobody, Jem, when you're sick as she was, it's all right to take anything to make it easier, but it wasn't all right for her. She said she meant to break herself of it before she died,and that's what she did." (P148 TKMB Harper lee) Mr's Dubose's these attribute should be respect,because she just a feminine women and she prefer getting pain, rather than live with morphine. In my life, I know a soldier in my history book, I think he is a hero. After he get vulnus by shouting with gun, we tell the doctor do not use pain-killer during opreation. Because he is a soldier and he need keep sober at the whole time. I think they are both same kind of hero. They want to get sober. They want to against their body's pain. In conclusion, hero does not have any determine definiton, Although, Mrs. Dubose is a old women,yet she is a hero in my heart.
