Oscar Dominguez:
Me gusta la pintura de Oscar Dominguez porque esta es una representación de que hombre puede consegui. Desde ayudando el uno con el otro, esta demonstra como hombres y mujeres necissitan a trabajan juntos.

1) Lee esta lectura. Es en inglés (perdóname). ​
2) Habla del simbolismo de las figuras en la obra.
3) ¿Cómo te relacionas con la obra? (o sea, ¿cómo te hace sentir? ¿qué significa para ti?)

No hay que escribir tanto. No más 7-10 frases ya bastan.

​What did you learn from doing this project? (skills, life lessons, words etc)?

I learned how to say certain things in Spanish, as well as how to make a pretty cool video.

How do you feel about your final product?

I feel pretty confident about the final project. It's not perfect, but I think it's pretty good.

If you could do your project all over again, what would you do differently/the same?
I would change the video around a bit, and maybe include more video instead of photos.

Did you enjoy this project? Why or why not?
I did, because it was extremely creative and insight.

There's me,
Looking down at my shoes.
The one smiling like the sun
That's you,
What were you thinking?
What was the song inside your head?

If I was stupid,
Maybe careless,
So were you...

Not everything is supposed to come true.
Some words are best unsaid,
Some love is not really love at all.
I'll keep everything I shared with you.
And that's enough,
There's us...

“MICHAEL! PLEASE CALM DOWN!” Screamed Christy, panic in her eyes and all she could do was watch and stare as I punched the wall next to the bathroom and violently threw the old Ikea lamp that we keep next to our bed. It was as if something inside me just snapped. Christy sounded distant. We were in the same room, but somehow, I could barely make out her words, like I was in another dimension. I didn’t know exactly what she was saying, but I knew I was upsetting her. I knew it killed her to see me like that, but it didn’t matter. It happened in mere seconds, we were in bed together with our son Evan and all of a sudden he started crying – not your ordinary cry that informs the parent that their child is hungry or wet, but rather, he sounded like he was in pain - A pain so deep that it could not be cured by a mother’s gentle kiss or the proper cradling technique prescribed by parenting.com or some other website that has disillusioned millions of families expecting a baby that there is some type of formula to fix all of your child’s problems.

 

I had heard him cry thousands of times before and it bothered me each time, but this time was different. I heard those screams and I just lost control. This just seemed to make everything worse. The crying intensified and Christy’s pleas for me to stop just made me angrier and then I… 

Japan was recently hit by a 8.9 earthquake whose aftermath lead to a tsunami which lead to a plant oil fire. Keep the country and the people in your prayers, I am.

I got a new car yesterday.
YAY.

It's a 2005 Chrysler Sebring Convertible. I love my life.

Didn't really want to do homework today but I remembered that I needed good grades. So I did it yay! me:)

My dad is pretty darn strong and great. In my eyes he is a hero cause he tries so hard. Recently he was interviewed for a paper. The story was published yesterday in the Inquirer and it is online as well. I am really proud of my dad. He is working hard on not only making his t-shirt business happen but staying strong for the whole family.

"Lenea why didn't you tell me that Penn State was 4 hours away?" 

My best friend realized the distance today. 

"There was a tree

"There was a tree
In the middle of the ground 
The prettiest tree 
That you ever did see. 

Oh the tree in a hole, 
And the hole in the ground 
and the green grass grows all around all around 
and the green grass grows all around.

And from this tree, 
there grew a limb
the prettiest limb 
that you ever did see. 

Oh the limb on the tree, 
and the tree in a hole. 
and the hole in the ground, 
and the green grass grows all around, all around
and the green grass grows all around." 


And on that limb there was a branch. The prettiest branch that you ever did see. 


But this children's song skipped an important part.

[Extended Version] 
And on that  branch,

 there grew a  leaf. 

the prettiest leaf

that you ver did see. 

But winter came, 

and those pretty leaves and pretty branches fell off. 

So that pretty tree stood alone.  

But the green grass still grew all around, all around

The green grass still grows all around. 

Halfway along the New Jersey street a person appeared behind her, but she didn’t know. Random cars whizzed by on the road, and they caught her attention every now then. A red jeep with bright headlights reflected the strangers shadow on the pavement behind her. She turned around, and noticed the man. White, bear face, short shaggy hair. His dingy flannel shirt was tucked halfway into ripped blue jeans that were covered in random patches of bleach stains and dirt.

"Fear not for the future, weep not for the past."
