Black boy 2

November 20th, 2008 by

I am not fully enjoying this book, it’s a tedious book. The story is a bit the same all the time but, I feel so bad that this boy is so oppressed and to think that someone had to go through all this and still become a writer is incredible.

Black boy

November 11th, 2008 by

I am reading black boy. It’s a book by richard wright, it’s a autobiographical novel. It’s about a black boy living in southern America, in the 1920s. I like this book but sometimes it’s difficult to believe it’s real. What I don’t like about this book is it’s to descriptive.

We have a celebration in the Netherlands called Sinterklaas. Sinterklaas is like santa except for Dutch children. He comes in through the chimney and if you leave your shoe out he puts candy and presents in them. The candy he puts in are Chocolate letters, your initials, and papernooten, which is a like a cookie.

I live in the Netherlands it is west of Germany and north of Belgium. I live in Hilversum. Hilversum is close to Amsterdam, the capital of the Netherlands. I start school at 8:30 and end it about 3:30. I bike to school because it’s easy and I don’t live to far away. Our subjects are mixed up, we don’t have math everyday, we don’t have english every day. I like living in the Netherlands because it is safe, we don’t have any gangs, everybody speaks english and the food is great!

The Shining by Stephen King

October 28th, 2008 by

I am well past halfway of this book and now I know its good. The only thing I don’t like about this book is it’s a bit tedious, it takes a chapter to describe one thing. What I like about this book is its well written and it makes the hotel seem like a character. I also like how the author writes what the people are thinking.

      9.  Why did you take Ginny to the Kaira DeLeon concert instead of Tatiana?

     10. How did it feel when you found out your tickets were copies and Ginny had a seizure?

                Answer: I felt it was my fault that Ginny had a seizure, I thought something would happen with all the lights flashing.

       19. Why did you think there wouldn’t be a trial to see if you beat Kaira?

                 Answer: I knew there wouldn’t be a trial because Kaira’s manager confessed and I was the one that called 911.
