Beginning Middle End


I have seen many movies where they had really good beginning and endings. In my opinion i really like the ending of Catching Fire because it gave me a finish of that part of the story but it left me in suspense and i really want to watch the next part of the story. in our lives we are full of different types of beginning and ends. one of the beginnings in my life would be the journey of the high school experience. Starting  in 9th grade and will be ending in 12th grade after 12th grade i will enter a new phase in my life. that would be the college which is a new beginning and new stage in my life. and life goes like that things end and others start and life continues.

Superior Position

There could be many events in peoples lives where they had experienced superior position. It could be as a simple event where you have someone trying to do a prank on someone. i remember my little cousin wanted to scare my grandma so he went to hide behind the couch. i knew he was there and i knew my grandma got scared pretty easy so i knew she was going to scream or yell or get mad at my cousin because he was going to try to scare her. He just told me not to say anything so i didn't. i just kept watching TV and acting like i didn't know anything and i was just waiting for my grandma to walk in and see her reaction when my cousin popped out of no where.

Conflict

From a movie
Real life
idea for film

We can see conflict everywhere, from a movie, and in life. For example in the movie Catching Fire, the main conflict is that there is a corrupt government that doesn't care about the people and they had the worst living condition so they sent the kids to the games and they sent Katniss and the other winner of the games back into the area because president snow was trying to get revenge. he wanted to kill of Katniss, she was the symbol of rebellion in the districts. in real life we experience conflicts every day if could be as little as working really hard on a project and when you get to class the day that your have to turn it in you forget it in your desk.

My Film Job

I am not completely sure what job i want to do in a film, but i am kind of interested in editing the film. being editor in a film will be kind of interesting because i would be working on the computer trying to put the film together. deciding where to put the music what scenes to get from each take. another job i would like to do would be the casting director i really like helping other people and keeping on task. this job will do that because i will be helping the actors. also i wouldn't mind being one of the actors i think it would be fun idea to try to do that and being part of the film.

Undeserved Misfortune

In the movie the hunger games we can see a undeserved misfortune at the very beginning of the movie when Katniss' sister Prim gets chosen as tribute. Katniss couldnt let her sister be chosen so e volunteered to take her place. at that moment the audience starts caring about Katniss because she is now there is a high posibility she could die. she has to win the games so she doesnt die. At the moment we feel bad for her and we start caring  about Katniss because of the sacrifice she made.

My Review on the Elephant Man

The Elephant Man was a good movie which included a lot of symbolism which created a deep meaning in the film. i thought it was pretty amazing the fact  that now a days we don't see that as much. movies are just for entertainment and this one was entertaining but it gave us a lesson that showed a huge meaning. it reflected on the view point of the creator of this film, it said and showed something it wasn't just pointless. it made me think about our society today and what we are doing to out environment and society the damage we are causing. this film even thought it was made so long ago can still relate today. it did a good job creating a relatable theme a reoccurring event that happens through out the years. it makes you question and think about the impact human society is creating. overall this was a great film i really like movies that have a lesson in them and makes you question things.

"My name is John Merrick..."

The day i fell back into the trap of Mr. Bytes was the worst day of all. i though i was finally safe from all hard thanks to Dr. Treves who had helped me so much and no treated me as a freak show but as a actually human being. he was trying to help me and achieving my own happiness at last, but Bytes had to ruin it all for me and treated me as a freak show all ever again. i was really sick and no matter how much i fought it i couldn't stay standing and entertain the crowd with my deformities like he wanted me to. there was a moment where i just lost conscious. and when i woke up i was trapped in a cage with other animal. he treated me like an animal not a human being. this was so unfair i had to be treated like that i was suffering everywhere i went they treated me like a freak. even at the hospital i still did not feel completely safe but somehow i rather be there than here. some other freaks from the shows helped me escape from Mr. Bytes and helped me find a way back to the hospital the only pace i could call home.

Welcome to my Nightmares

i have had many nightmares in the past years. in all this nightmares ive woken up really rattled and shaken up with my heart pounding really past. this nightmare didnt really make alot of sense. it was a combination of different scenes that changed very drastically i was in different places, and i didnt even know in the nightmare how i got there. the nightmare started when i saw myself in a strange place by byself i didnt know anyone. there was a lot of chaos going on builings burning, explosions, people dying and getting injured. the whole time i was tryin to find my way home. i somehow ended up in a cotco looking place that had alot of people running around and i was looking for my mom but i couldnt find her anywhere. i was really worried about her beause i felt that something had happend to her. then the scenery changed and i was home. and i was talking to my sister and asking hr where was my mom. she took me to her and i remember i saw my mom laying down supposedly she was dead or really injured and i started to cry. supposedly in the dream it was my moms birthday and she had supposedly died on her birthday.  when i woke up i was really scared and the first thing i did was go and make my mom up. and told her what had happend. i realized in that moment that i need my mom and if something happend to her it would really hurt me and make me sad, i told her i didnt want to lose her. she calmed me down and told me nothing was going to happen the strange part was that i dreamt that a few days before her birthday so thats what had scared me that most.

Compassionate Science

i believe that people should use their knowledge to help and make the world a better place. If we are able to do something about an issue to do it and not hold back. it could help the lives of many people. we should not be selfish because at the end it would affect them also. we all have to do something to help because if we don't then we would keep destroying our on kind and our on society. also we would not advance in life. we need to think and look for solutions. imagine if everyone did not use their knowledge to help. we would no have doctors to help with our health. no more advancements in transportation like cars airplanes. there would be no improvements and the world would slowly die out. in my case i would like to make a change or an impact on peoples lives. i would like to learn things that i can use in the future and discover new things. i still haven't decided in what branch i want to work in,
 if in medicine or in business but i would like to choose one that will help people in my community with my knowlege. i want to do a good job and impact peoples lives with happiness and less worries.

The Future

I think in the future will be a very different life styles. i believe that with the advancement of technology  they are going to develop cure to different diseases. that is a good thing but it could have a negative effect on our society. with all these different cures, we know could suffer from over population, because now less people are dying. there could be food shortages, the fighting for different types of daily life supplies. the development of this new technologies can take many people out of jobs and can eventually lead to poverty or an unbalanced economic system. i the future there would also be problems in between countries and the fight of who had the best weapons or the best technology. they could eventually use all that as a threat and cause many conflicts. maybe not all things will be bad in the future. there could be a time with all the knowledge the have they could invent things to make the daily life a bit easier. they could create better houses with more commodities, make the cities cleaner more sufficient. something that it think will stay the same in society will be that social classes systems. there is still going to be that different and abusive power over the different types of citizen in the world.

One Time I Laughed Really, Really Hard


        There has been many times i have laughed really really hard. If I had to chose one will be the time that my friends came over to my house. we always hang out at my house to play games to talk, eat do what ever we want to do. we always seem to have a good time together. I remember i was talking to my best friend about something that had happened to me. i was telling her the story of how one day i was walking with my mom and sister and i accidentally crashed into the stop sign. i was trying to to tell er that story but i couldn't seem to stop laughing. i was trying to tell her the story but i couldn't tell er everything because i kept stopping in mid sentence to laugh. the story really wasn't that funny but i kept laughing because i couldn't manage to get the story out which made me laugh even more. i tried to get all serious but that made it worse too. i told myself stop laughing but i just couldn't. i tried to tell my friend the story all calm but i just couldn't look at her in the face because she knew i would start laughing. i sometimes laugh for no reason. that's a weird thing about me. and my friends know that very well they cant even control me they just make this face and look at me like there's something wrong with me which makes me laugh even more and then they end up laughing with me.

My Review of Modern Times

I personally really enjoyed the film Modern Times by Charlie Chaplin. Chaplin used this film to send a message to the audience throughout the scenes. It kept the audience entertained but it made the message clear. All the elements that he used in this film illustrated or symbolized something about his character or his views about different subjects that were going on in that time. Chaplin was able to express him self during this film. It made the audience think about the social issues that were going on like how they were in a way being abused by the machines and the factories. How the police system authority system was not that best. How poverty was a big deal in that time and many people struggled to get the food on the table because of the lack of jobs. Through out his film he let us know through comedy and humor his significant thoughts. I think he chose a right way to show his ideas in the form he illustrated all the details in this film.

My Thoughts on Bullying

My Thoughts on Bullying

There is different types of bullying. There is physical bullying, verbal bullying, emotional bullying sexual bullying and even cyber bullying. Now it is very easy to bully someone that is not even with you . No matter what type it is.. its still bullying and it is harmful, it causes a certain damage in someones self esteem, it can cause physiologic issues in a person. mostly in young boys and girls and teenagers. I have seen many people get bullied for different types of reasons. some because they speak differently, others on the way they dress, because of their sexual orientations or even because of their weight. i have seen it happen a lot through out my middle school and high school days. it even happen to me but it was not that bad. A girl that was once my best friend got mad for something really pointless now that i think about it, and started texting me nasty things calling me names. i honestly didn't really worry about it too much because i thought it was pointless. Just a girl that had nothing better to do and in a way was hurt and felt bad for what had happened. She ended up apologizing for what she did because she realized it was really unnecessary to have reacted that way she was just really mad. after that incident we never talked again. it didn't affect me, but i know that bullying has negative affects on others.

My Favorite Movie

I personally love to watch Disney animation movies. My favorite animations will be Pocahontas I and Pocahontas II. I could watch that movie many times and not get tired of it. I like how there is a lot of characters in this movie, and they have very detailed settings. This film also shows and it is representing an event in history using animations. They showed a different point of view with their characters. They had the Native Americans and the Spaniards that came to conquer them. This film used the music and color patterns for different scenes to cause drama or make the film more intense, to cause emphasis in certain scenes. For example, the scene of the Spaniards destroying the land of natives and the bad guy was going kind of crazy. the creator started using dark colors different music.  They were very detailed in facial expressions of their characters so you can understand each character better.
