Harry Potter y la piedra filosofal: La segunda reflexin

Escribe una reflexión sobre uno de las temas de la novela y cómo te relacionas tú al tema. 

Un tema muy importante en mi libro es familia.  Harry no tiene una familia a excepción de los Dursley, quien no les gustan.   Los Dursley no tocan cuidado con Harry, pero Veron y Petunia amo su hijo Dudley.  Harry pede un deseo que un otro familia fuera a el y toca afuera.  Un otro tema es el cumpleaños. Dudley obtiene muchas regalos y un viaje con el zoo. Familia es un importante tema para mi porque su familia le amo en todos situaciones y cuando Harry no obtener este es muy triste. me amo mi familia y no se que yo fuera sin ellos.

Cajas de Cartn: La segunda Refleccin

por Natalie Sanchez
Cambié mi libro electrónico por uno de papel. Se llama Cajas de Cartón por Francisco Jiménez. Hasta ahora, he leído hasta la página siete. El protagonista de el libro se llama Panchito. Su familia  vive en México, junto con él, y son muy pobres. Se quieren mudar a California para hacer más dinero y vivir una vida mejor. Cuando cruzan la frontera, una mujer los lleva a un lugar adonde pueden trabajar piscando fresas. No puede empezar a trabajar el papá de Panchito hasta que pasen dos semanas. Personalmente, no me puedo relacionar con Panchito mucho porque nací en los Estados Unidos, pero mi mamá no. Ella nació en Puerto Rico, y tuvo que venir a los estados unidos como a los 20 años para tratamiento médico. Le dio lupus a los 15 años. Ella siempre me dice que se le hizo difícil venir para acá. Ella vino pobre con su mamá. Solo tenían un catre y un televisor. No tenían camas ni mesas. Ellos usaban la fornituras que tiraban a la basura; las limpiaban, ya las usaban. Mi mamá tiene algunas cosas en común con Panchito. 

They Way You Make Me Feel

Kissin you is all that I been thinking of 
Kissin you is good 

Don't matter who knows 
I don't care who sees me 
And thinking about you makes my life complete 
And what I mean by that 
That my whole world changes 
You make me feel things that I never felt 
I wanna kiss you 

Oh yeah, I wanna kiss you 
 

When I'm with my friends 
I'm trying to figure out a way 
To leave 'em behind just to get back to you 
Oh, you're my best kept secret 
And that's the way I like it 
You're my pride and joy boy 
That's why I'm dreaming of you 
I wanna kiss you 

Kissing you so good 
 
You're my pride and joy 
You're my baby boy 
People ask me how I feel about you 
They ask me if I love you (yeah) 
Am I crazy for you (yeah yeah yeah) 

Oh yeah, I wanna kiss you 

Yeah, yeah, yeah 
Yeah, yeah, yeah 
Yeah, yeah, yeah 

Kissing you is so good 
Yeah, yeah, yeah 
Yeah, yeah, yeah 
Yeah, yeah, yeah 

Oh yeah, I wanna kiss you 

I been thinking 'bout you, dreaming 'bout you, thinking about, you yeah, yeah 
 
Oh kissing you is so good 
Got to have it, have your love that's all I'm thinking of 


Kissing You

Hurt

She undoubtedly has a lot of hurt. And never has known how to deal with it. So she drinks, and abuses, and drinks, and abuses and tries to defend each of her actions in between. The thing is: until someone happens to understand the meaning of the word "cope", this hurt will continue through generations. Because her mother's hurt became hurt for her, and her hurt has become ours. Luckily, I understand the laws of human nature. Her hurt will continuously affect me, but my hurt ends here. I'm making sure of that. 

i never even liked cupcakes.

i am about so tired of paying for 1 DOLLAR CUPCAKES.
its a scam.
it is . but the sprinkles are so good, and so is the icing
anyway, i used to hate cake. i used to hate CUPCAKES
but now i find myself buying them for a dollar ? like its something i loved all my life.
i dont understand whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy it cost so much though?
 soda is a dollar.
cupcakes are a dollar
brownies are a dollar.
everything is  a dollar, no matter the size .
and u know what? thats dead because sometimes, bianca gives me a skimpy piece of cake, and gives someone else a big *** piece of cake. -_- but we BOTH PAYED OUR DOLLARS.

im kinda mad though cuz i never even liked cupcakes. somethings up .

Just a thought.

​Today, I had an interesting conversation with my boyfriend.  We spent the bus ride to my house discussing roles in a relationship.

"Taylor, women have it so easy.  What do they even do?
"They have to be there emotionally for their man and take care of him.  I don't know; they do a lot!"
"C'mon! Guys have to ask the girl out, pay for everything, protect her and tell her she's beautiful, even when she's not.  You try it; it's not easy."
"Technically, they don't have to do it."
"But you know you would be mad if I didn't."
"That's true."
"Exactly."

It left me wondering if relationships were really equal, or if the lack of a woman's responsibility in a relationship was a single triumph in a world of male-favored inequality.

North and South - What if?



​http://www.schooltube.com/video/3bec9d4f89a96d7c9e35/North-and-South-Korea-NHD-Project?utm_source=site-email&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=site-notices

Why did you choose this topic?
I chose it because Newon gave me a good idea to go along with, and I was looking forward to making that idea.

Why did you choose this type of presentation format?
I felt that the best way to express our feelings of the government was by expressing it visually.

Where did you run into trouble with the project?
Editing and the bibliography. In editing, we had to work on it on my laptop and it was difficult when we split up the work because one person wouldn't always be with the other to do their part so some of the work had to be done at school for that person.

What went well with this project?
The recording went really well. We even got to do many things that weren't in the script and made it a lot better than if we just went along with the script.

If you had it to do over, what would you change about your decisions or your process?
I might have started the project a bit earlier, and I would have used less pictures. I might have found a way to balance out both images and videos.

What did you learn?
I learned about the North and South Korean government, and although we took a childlike view on their political views on each other, I will admit that maybe there are complicated things on this issue that I "can't understand."

Censorship In Music

https://dl.dropbox.com/u/1082027/National%20History%20Day/National_History_Day/Welcome.html


For our National History Day Project we had to choose a topic of interest and write a paper about it. For mine I chose to do the censoring of words in music and from where it began until now how it has changed. The link listed above is for my website that I created to explain the history of Censorship and why it's important but also looked at with different opinions by many people

Natalie Sanchez- Ahorita 7 de marzo 2011

A Pedro Almodóvar le gusta subvertir las definiciones más convencionales del género en sus películas. ¿Estás de acuerdo? ¿Por qué? 
Pienso que sí, Pedro Almodóvar le gusta subvertir las definiciones del genero. Pienso que en sus películas podemos ver los roles de las mujeres como los roles de los hombres, Las mujeres en vez de ser debiles, sumisas, y calladas son fuertes, determinadas, e independientes. Toman sus propias decisiones y no necesitan hombres que las manden. Los hombres en la película eran demasiados dependientes a las mujeres. 

Eran muy débiles. Los papeles de mujer y hombre se intercambian en la película. 

En tu opinión y en tus experiencias, ¿cuál es el género de tomar acción y hacer cambios? ¿y según Almodóvar? ¿y según tus telenovelas? 
En mi opinión, es la mujer la que toma acción y hace un cambio, porque si no fuera por la mujer y su insistencia, los hombres no harán nada. Digo esto porque me mamá es la que planea todo y toma cargo de la familia. Papi tan solo la obedece. Almodovar piensa la mismo; la mujeres toman el control. Las telenovelas nos enseña diferente. Enseñan que los hombres toman el control. 

¿Cómo son diferentes las representaciones de género en Mujeres al borde de un ataque de nervios y la telenovela popular que miras en clase? 

En la película de Almodóvar, podemos ver mujeres fuertes, independientes, e en altas clases sociales. En las telenovelas, las mujeres son muy sumisas y siempre la hacen caso a las ordenes de los hombres de la telenovela. Son muy diferentes las representaciones de las mujeres en las película y las representaciones de las mujeres en las novelas. 

Daily Story- March 7

So today was the first day of students run. It sucked. I have asthma. I didn't used to. And now I can't run. And I look like a wimp but I'm not! I just sincerely can't breathe! Ugh. I don't like this. But I refuse to quit because I like to run. I just can't very well right now... I'll figure it out. Hopefully... I mean, people have asthma and still do sports and stuff all the time. I just gotta find out how they do it. And then I'll do that. Good, glad I figured that out.

Students Run

​First practice in a new season. Some new people ran today and I will admit not running since November has taken it's toll. It was fun though and Beth came too, her experience was different from mine, see Beth's post for details.

Basketball Withdrawl

My favorite basketball team, Miami Heat, have lost 4 games in a row. Yes, they are losing games right now, but its how they are losing that is the even more troubling part. In each of the teams past four loses they have blown big lead in the third or fourth quarter. They have also yet to find a way to win close games (games decided by 5 points or less). It was reported that after yesterdays lost, player were crying in the locker room. How can they play this poorly with three superstars on their team? Will they tun it around before the playoffs? We will have to wait and see. Until then, let the games continue.

Something Sweet

I wanted to go to the bake sale and buy something sweet to eat, but at the same time I didn't because I already had a muffin and would feel guilty. During my indecisive moment to go to the bake sale or not a piece of dark chocolate was dropped off in front of me. I no longer had to choose! I now had something sweet to eat and wouldn't feel guilty. Thank you Mr. Chase!

3/5/2011 Saturday

I love saturdays. Especially now that I don't work. It's just relaxing to know that my day is absolutely free so that I can  do whatever I want to do. So this saturday was beautiful, the weather was perfect and it made me feel good. There is something about certain types of weather that make me feel differently. For example, when it rains I feel so relaxed; the smell the feeling the sound everything about it remind me of  being in Puerto Rico when I was younger and watching the storm pass. When it's chilly out (a certain type) it makes me feel nervous, like really uncomfortable like something bad is going to happen. I really can't explain it and haven't met anyone who knows what I mean by weather and like different feeling but enough about that. 
Saturday afternoon I decided t go to my dad's house so that I could go prom dress shopping with my step mom but I ended up changing into PJ's and watching more movies with her instead. Plans seem to have a Pan of it's own with me.
It was nice none the less.
