To be honest I am sometimes lazy. I know that it's not good, but I do get things done no matter what. In emergencies I would do anything I can. That's my own personal life.

We Are Living in the Brave New World

Three things that in the video are bad that Aldous said was media, drugs, and propaganda. Even though it was hard to understand what he was saying he did not agree with all of these 3 things. Media is something that does keep you to update, but if you are in technology all day there is a possibility that can cause you to be dumb. Drugs are something that people use such as medication or smoking marijuana or other types of drugs. Now for propaganda, a good example is Donald Trump. People might not know what is actually going on and people just go with it. I agree with Aldous too because that's the true about all of this.

Brave New World 🌎

How do you imagine your future? Well it be the same or different? What I have seen is that once you are older you get more mature. You are able to take more responsibility than a teen. You are able to handle and make decisions on your own. What adults say is that life gets way harder. Maybe because of all the things they have to in there schedual. Like I said in my other post you will not know how your future will be, but you can already see the obvious things. You will have a busier schedule than know. Let me just tell you that life is not going to be easy for anybody.

HAFTA/ WANNA

As I know right now I can't really tell you what my life during high school and after high school will be. I am not a person from the future that can tell you what is going on. What I can tell you is that there can be a lit change. It might be if your mentality grew or the you act. People are different and you are the only one that can decide of you want to change or not. What I have seen is that students or older people do take things more serious and their actions are not childish. For my personal life I might stay the same, but I would be more mature. Not because I older means I'm going to stop having fun and being funny. Many people might change completely that is something tht no one knows. Once we graduate from high school you become adults something that we will be pretty soon which is year 2020. Now once you graduate you are going to have a busy schedule. You might have a jobs, school , gym and more. Like I said you are going to change no matter what if it's somethi...

What's So Great about Gatsby

1. Gatsby is great, but he did dumb things for love. He did not realized what he was doing which his life led to death. 2. Nick at first is honest with himself, but once he meets Jordan he starts to be dishonest. He hangs out with dishonest people because he wants to I mean no one forces him to do it. He seeks out relationships with them because those are his only friends. 3. To what the quote says I agree because Daisy and Tom would always do whatever they want to do. They never cared about wasting money or destroying relationships. 4. To be honest Daisy is weird so no I do understand her behavior. I don' agree to any of her choices. She wouldn't care about anything and just do what people would.tell her to do. Oh hello no I would not let my brother, son , or friend to date. 5. "So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past." This means that it tells us who we are.

Chapter 5 & 6 The Great Gatsby Notes

Vocabulary Bootleggers- people who sold the illegal alcohol Menagerie- collection of animals Chapter 5 review Basically Daisy is happier when she is with Gatsby than Tom. Daisy is more happier and had a different attitude with Gatsby. Gatsby invites Daisy to his house for some tea. Chapter 6 In this chapter you can truly see that Daisy has never liked Tom. Gatsby kissed Daisy which is another proof that they want to be together. Daisy in this chapter invited Gatsby to her house, but Ton got jealous. What is dumb in my opinion is that he has an affair with Mrs. Wilson. So I dont see why he should be saying something when he is doing the same thing.

The Great Gatsby Chapter 5 Notes

What I read in this chapter it was basically Gatsby wanting Daisy back. For it talks about how Nick sees Gatsbys house so bright like if it was burning. Then they were swimming in the pools. Gatsby wanted to tell the plan to Nick so that he can invite Daisy for some tea. Gatsby also wanted someone to cut his yards grass. He also wanted to offer Nick money  from the business that he is on, but does not have to do anything with Mr. Wolfshiem. Nick does not want to receive money because he just wants to help Gatsby with no cost. But they still do the plan of inviting Daisy over. The day Daisy was going to go over to Gatsby's house he was nervous because he was thinking that nothing was going to between them. Once the first meeting between them two was awkward, but then they started to see each other more and start getting along. Then one day the rain stop and Gatsby was talking about his luxury goods to Daisy and Nick, but then things started to be different so Nick left and Gatsby an...

Gatsby Chapter 4 Notes

The "TRUTH" that Gatsby told Nick about his situation in life or his past. Then Nick tells him about his life and things when he was serving for ww1. This all happened when they were riding to New York. Then not only that happens, but Jordan also has something to say. Jordan told Nick that she lies all the time and never told the truth.

Gatsby Notes

2/5/19 What I understood from chapter 3 on what I read is that Nick and Jordan are in a party and they see Gastby away from the party. In my opinion it is weird because he is a party person and he also does not drink. Many people get drunk in these parties and they are big parties as well. What really got my attention is that Gastby was away from his party that he did.

NICK'S CARDINAL VIRTUE

In chapter 3 gets really interesting. Cardinal virtue are four things in one word which is justice, prudence, temperance, and fortitude. Nick is a man that goes to New York to bond with business. That's not the only thing he does he meets new people, but in this chapter he goes to a party that he gets invited by Gatsby. He thinks that the rich people are fake, but he was surprised when he touched the book and was real. He thought it was fake, bit apparently it's not. I feel like Nick is being arrogant because he is getting into others business.
