what is bullying?

Bullying, it is when stronger (usually) person purposely harm the weaker person.
   When i say strong, it does not only mean that physically strong but also strong as in the way she/him think of her/himself and the popularly. Weak might just means that he or she have no friends in school or just physically week.
    Also bullying does not only include, of course, hurting the others by making them have wounds and stuff. A lot of times the words that you say to others might harm them so much more than you physically hurting them. Like laugh at someone when they are sad or pick on them all the time and make them feel like they have no friends ect. There are lots of ways for bullying and these are the two major ones people usually use.

Have i ever been bullied?

   Yes, i have been bullied before and that is defiantly something i do not want to remember at all. When i was in elementary school i was not the one you would want to hang out with. I was like a little boy in the elementary school, well, i guess i am not too girly even now. I would fight withe the guys if they piss me off, and i would rather die if you tell me to wear dress to school. This is probably the reason i get isolated in the class, i dont really have any good friend or friends in school. I dont think the boys i sometimes fight with are my friends for the reason i fight with them is that they laugh at me. All the time, i wonder if they get tire of it, but sadly they never did. When we are doing group work, i am always the last one to be pick. When they play cards, i only get to watch.
    this is a really bad memory and i am glad i am out of it.

american history quick write

the things that bland to me but happen to someone else are:
- the Japan earthquake that happened a little more than a week ago.
        i fellow all the news that up date everyday, and maybe this event is the biggest ever happen around me. It made me think a lot, about the way we get energy, about how people react to such disaster like that.

-  when president ma get elected to Taiwan's president.
     i am not really on any side of the party but i just really dislike how president Chen steal all our money and lie to us all the time. Also not only did he steal all the money, he wast tons too. We sure need a better president than him.

-   the reform of egypt, this is probably the event that started all the revolution around Africa.
        This is probably not the most significant revolution happen around the area but it is the one i really get up and fellow and understand all about it as much as i can. It is one of those time when i can actually see how a country, basically form, started, whatever you want to call it.  

turing points

     People who chose to take the risk when they get the chose to playing it save:

- there was this woman, she chose to be couch girl, this means she is traveling around the world all by herself and sleeping at other people's couch. She is around her  20s to 30s and i think this is really a big risk for her. She spent 11 months to travel, sleep at 81 people's couch, and spent only 220,000 NT. She don't know the people she is staying at before she went so i think this is a really risky thing, sleeping at stranger's house all around the world. They could do things to her and no one will know until afterwords.

- The black woman refuse to give her sit up to a white man.

- Jane who went to live with the chimpanzee to study them.

-  that family chose to went to live with the group of people in Africa that is still living a wild life, hunting, killing each other, no technology. This is risky for them because the tribes are constantly killing each other.

analyze poem

i rewrite this because my original one is lost, because of the internet.

when i analyze the poem, first i look for the rhythm in the poem. Second i find the rhyme in the poem, than i put down the image in my head that the poem give us, and the feeling the poem is trying to express. Finally, i look for the literary terms in the poem.

i first identify the rhythm of the poem because it helps me understand the poem better, lots of times the poem sounds different when you identify the rhythm. And sometimes the meanings are different. Then i find the rhyme because it is one of the easiest thing to identify, also because it would help me understand the poem. By this time i would have read the poem a few times and i would put the images down on paper as soon as possible. Finally i would tell the literary terms in the poem, i put it last because that thing needs to take some brain power.

Death

Because I could not stop for Death-He kindly stopped for me—
The Carriage held but just Ourselves—
And Immortality.

We slowly drove—He knew no haste,
And I had put away
My labor and my leisure too,
For His Civility—

We passed the School, where Children strove
At recess—in the ring—
We passed the Fields of Gazing Grain—
We passed the Setting Sun—

Or rather—He passed Us—
The Dews drew quivering and chill—
For only Gossamer, my Gown—
My Tippet—only Tulle—

We paused before a House that seemed
A Swelling of the Ground—
The Roof was scarcely visible—
The Cornice—in the Ground—

Since then—'tis centuries— and yet
Feels shorter than the Day
I first surmised the Horses' Heads
Were toward Eternity—

The death is coming for us, this is no doubt and this poem is telling us about how we all walk our way toward death how our life is like a day that shine brightly and ends.

This poem give me a image of the god of death lead a the writer pass a empty school, which remind writer about his childhood. How writer turn back on the way and saw the setting sun, it tell me that she compare the life to the twilight it is coming to the end but still beautiful in its very own way. The tip of the house seems like the home she is already very far from. She can barley sees it, barely sees the tip and most successful part of her life.

Also the empty school, setting sun, barley seeing house all give me a image that everything is coming to an end, she is lonely, on this field looking back to some thing else she did not belong.

She did not refuse to go with the gentleman, or as I’ve seen the god of death, nor did she try to hide. I think she want to tell us that death, is not scary it is just an other way of forever. 

The Courage that my mother had quickwirte

      Something i would want to inherit from my family would be the voice my parents have. Both my parents are pretty good singers, it is not like they are going to be the next rock star or anything it is just they both sing well and some how their voice will stand out form the others when they sing.
     As for me, i am not a good singer, my voice is very different from my mother and father and i sometimes wonder why. My voice are not sounding well when i sing along. I have this cool ability that when i sing with the others you basically don't hear my voice but i made who ever is singing with me's voice louder. But that only happens if the person sing with me takes the lead, in other words sings well enough and is sure of the thing it is singing. Or else i either takes the lead myself or i just eventually stops singing.
    So i want to have my mother and father's voice because i want to sing along too. I want to stand out of the crowd in some way. My voice made me scard of sing before other people but i some times wish i could.
