David Grossman Hw

   I kind a disagree with David Grossman. In my opinion, he is being a little too harsh about this. He say that watching T.V is reject old values and similar to soldiers in training. That doesn't make sense. Some of the kids learn things including old values through visual aids. So why watching T.V is reject old values? Also, he said that watching T.V is somehow similar to soldiers in training. Kids make their choice and watch T.V to entertain and relax. They didn't watch T.V because someone told them to watch it. However, I agree with his ideas about gaming is similar to military warfare. Some video games are just plain violate, everything in the games are just violated and inappropriate.  Plus, I agree that video games are teaching kids to like killing. There are some cases in Vietnam where kids play games and start to think like video games. They think that killing is normal think and didn't imagine about the consequences. As a result, they think that killing is the easiest way to solve a problem .... and their life started to ruin since then.
   In conclusion, I think David Grossman is being a little too harsh about television shows. However, I must agree with him about video games.

Games!!!!!!!

; 

I think twelve and thirteen years old kids can choose their own games as long as the rates and appropriate for their ages. Also, they must have their parents agreements. I think they can choose their own games because they have their own freedom and choices make consequences. If they decide to play a violate game with a lot of inappropriate scenes. It can affect their life and make them a bad person. And I'm sure that none of the thirteen and twelve kids want to be a bad person with a dark life. However, if they choose game wisely, the can learn more things about the society and the world around them. In conclusion, it's up to the kids what game they gonna play and what consequences will they take. So choose wisely kids!! 

Carpet Boy's Gift Homework

   Many rights of the children has been abandoned in the story. One of the rights was "Every children should have a good care and rest when they are sick." In the story, Nadeem was sick because of the carpets factory environment.  But the master didn't care about Nadeem's illness. Infact, Nadeem was scared when he was sick because it reminded him a girl that used to work at the factory with him. She was sick too, and like Nadeem's situation, the master didn't cares. At a result, the master thought that she was worthless and sell her to another factory. That's not fair, the master should imagine what happened to him when his childhood was similar to the children in his factory.

Favorite Song! :)

   My favorite song is........ California Girl by Katy Perry =] No! I'm just kidding :)

   My real favorite song is Untouched by The Veronicas. Even know, there are many songs that I love but this is the first one I had fell in love with. "Untouched" is basically talking about love. Even know I don't really cares about "love" right now for some reason but I love the melody and how The Veronicas sing that song. It's so fast that's is like they were rapping, well maybe they are. I try to sing this song a lot of times but I can only sing the very first part.

"I'll try to stop time for ever, never wanna hear you say goodbye"

   That's is my favorite sentence in the song. Sometimes, I make mistake in my life and I just want to stop the time. Stop the time to fix my mistake, to do everything again because I want everything to be perfect..... 
   

"Madam and the Rent Man" Questions :)

1.Read with a Purpose

The rent man and madam seems to disagree throughout the poem. But at the end they both agree that their lives are horrible and full of misery.

2. Infer   

 I think the message of the poem is "Not everyone happy about their life".

3. Analyze

 Langston Hughes uses playful language and dialogue to affect the tone of "Madam and the Rent Man" by using punctuation such as exclamation mark "!" and making the tone sound like New York people.
