Judge DeSalvo

If I were to be Judge Desalvo, I would let Anna take control of her own body instead of doing what everyone else wanted her to do. She already went through enough by finding out that she was kind of born just to save her sisters life, she should be able to get a lawyer to back up her reasoning. I think it is hard for Sara because she thinks that her daughter doesn't want to help her other daughter anymore, when her life is on the line, and she thinks that Anna doesn't love her for doing this to her. I think Campbell Alexander understands where Anna is coming from when she says she has to risk her own body for Kate's sake and she is sick of being alive for only one reason.

If I were in the position of my sister having a birth defect and my parents needed to have a child just like her to save her, and I was that child, I would still feel loved. If my parents went through all the teoubles to have me, they obviously would love me. I would also feel close to my sister because I saved her life.

I disagree with everyone that thinks the holocaust didn't happen. There is evidence, pictures, witnesses, news articles, everything, thy supports that the holocaust was a true event. Obviously people didn't sit and make up a huge scenario, story, and statistics about an event that may have happened, just to scare people about race. There is Anne franks diary, that was living during the holocaust, that experienced everything that happened, and people believe it was all made up. Do people think someone made a fake diary to use as a piece of evidence? It is all true. All of it happened

The Holocaust

I believe that the Holocaust was a terrible thing. I dont think people should have been punished for being a certain race. I don't think it was right to put Jews through the kind of hell that they went through, just because Hitler thought they had something to do with Germany losing and having to pay the war reparations. It's a slap in the face to the jews, because they had to suffer and get killed because of their race. Every single Jew shouldn't have suffered the way they did. It would have been better if no one suffered.

We were at one of my softball tournaments and this mom from the other team was talking a bunch of hard talk about me. She was saying things that were not very nice and instead of my mom blowing up on her, she just told her that she wasn't being very nice and she would appreciate it if she kept her comments to herself. My mo is the type that if you get her real angry, then she will blow up on someone, but from that day she realized that she would be wrong for blowing up on the woman. 

To Kill a Mockingbird

If I transferred the story of Scout and her adventures to my neighborhood, it would be pretty boring because I live in a neighborhood with all grumpy old people. I would change the kind of adventures that took place and the people that lived there because if you would actually go on an adventure now, you would get yelled at by the old folks. The things that would stay the same would be the setting because I have a cool neighborhood where people have a bunch of trees in their back yards and there is a little creek to go on adventures in. I think I would be friends with Scout as a child because I always liked to use my imagination and go on mini adventures with my one friend. I would be friends with Jem and Dill too because they do some crazy things and go on some cool adventures.

“Instructions for living a life. Pay attention. Be astonished. Tell about it.”

Mary Oliver was right about the “instructions for living a life.” You have to pay attention to the little things in life to be astonished. When you are astonished, you should tell people about it. It makes life more enjoyable if you pay attention to all the little things. Instead of worrying about one or two things in life, look at all the other things. They could astonish you and make a great story to tell about later in life. It makes memories that will last forever.
