You Ruined my life.
"They were the two best friend friends that anyone could have." -The Hangover
George loved Lennie and Lennie loved George. No one understood their friendship so George had to give Lennie a fast quick death before everyone else tries to hurt him. However, this is a terrible end with good intentions. May i remind everyone Lennie is not a dog. We can NOT just take a grown man "out back" and shoot him to "put him out of his misery". The end of this book is dehumanizing. I understand its supposed to be a good gesture of protection, but its unacceptable in my eyes. you'd be better off letting him run, because then it's not on your heart, conscience, and mind.

The Struggle Bus
Everything involving school is harder now than it was in August. I can't get out of bed, but yet I can't fall asleep. I'm more hungry with less time to eat. Daily life is harder now than it was in August. I fall asleep in class everyday now, where as this time 9 months ago, I was bouncing off the wall. It's also harder too poop now because I hold it so much to get through classes without being yelled at and don't eat. It's okay though, because after next week....

Apparently Kid
Hero
In To Kill a Mockingbird there are many heroes. Atticus making a statement in Maycomb with Tom's case and killing the sick dog. Boo Radley is a hero by keeping the kids warm with a blanket, giving them something to look forward to like the toys in the tree, sewing Jem's pants, and protecting the kids from Mr. Ewell. However, to me the hero is Scout. Scout is the hero because she displays internal conflict and how to deal with, a kill everyone could improve on. She also questions adults and makes them think before acting, encouraging them to do the right things. Scout saves the day by breaking mob mentality by doing the simplest things such as just starting a conversation with an individual. Sometimes the biggest heroes come in the smallest, most unexpected packages. I believe Scout is the package in To Kill a Mockingbird.
To Kill a Mockingbird
Mirroring is a common theme throughout To Kill a Mockingbird. Tom Robinson and Boo Radley are both different compared to Maycomb's society. They are also judged and convicted of false story that ultimately ruin their lives. In real;ity both of them are harmless and get hurt by the anger of Maycomb. Tom Robinson is the Mockingbird killed by Maycomb, but luckily, Boo Radley is kept out of the lime light by sheriff Tate. Giving Arthur (Boo) attention he wouldn't know how to handle would be like killing a mockingbird.

And We Won't NEED Facebook and We Never NEEDED It
Good evening Indiana. This is Rya Bryant here with tonight's fireside chat is about social media. I never had, do not have, and will never have Facebook. I have gotten rid of Twitter for eight months now. I do not regularly post on Instagram to tell you who my "Man-Crush-Monday" is. I do not send pictures of my food to "My Story" on Snapchat every five hours. I am in fact still breathing. I am in fact still very social. I talk to people in person which I know is a crazy concept for some of you "facebookers" who air out your family's dirty laundry on there for the world to see. If everyone puts the phone done down and invites their family and friends over to talk, we will be happier, better skilled in communication and we won't need Facebook.

Prom
Prom was a joke. The best part of that night was putting on makeup. I never wear makeup because I hate makeup if that tells you anything. The music was terrible and I was embarrassed I brought my boyfriend. He laughed it was so terrible and I probably won't go next year if it sucks again if its as bad as it was this year.
Do I like novels? 😂
No. Novels are too long and I got places to go, people to see, and things to do. Novels are a great way to pass time except I don't have any time to pass. I am still over here trying to slow time down. Honestly though, I do like to read, I usually read a small book over the summer because my schedule slows down. I might even read the second "To Kill a Mockingbird" this summer if I have a little free time.
