It's a Wonderful Life


This movie is about George Bailey's life how he saved people even though his life was in misery. Then he almost committed suicide on Christmas Eve, but then his guardian angel saved his life by showing him a life without him being born. 


George Bailey,

From the Bailey family who saved uncountable people, without him tons of people could've die. He is one of the most inspirational people ever, he puts his life in front of other people. Once during the Great Depression he gave out his honey moon money for the sake of these people's lives. Even though George wasn't born in a wealthy family he learned to still help the others who needed more help than them. He knew he had a family to care for but they supported him especially for his wife, Mary.

Sometimes love is all you need to live on, he wasn't rich at all but Mary and all his other kids supported him. He almost commit suicide once because money was lost and he needed it otherwise he's going to jail. But his guardian angel, Clarence came to save him showing the world without him born. The world without him was horrific his brother died, Mr. Gower went to jail, the village was named Pottersville, his wife is a librarian....and more. In life when something small is done changes everything, don't ever think whatever choice or thing you do in life isn't important. George Bailey changed, and made people's life out of misery.

So people who want to commit suicide don't think that you aren't worth living in this world because if it weren't for you our world wouldn't be like this.

Harrison Bergeron

Dear Mom and Dad,

You might not know me but I'm your son. I remembered clearly that I was captured in the prison because of my smartness, handsomeness, and strength. How can the world change so much? Dad do you realize that every time you think of something that's smart it gets forgotten by the handicap? Our world is going crazy by trying to make everyone equal, but how can people live in such kind of world? The government doesn't want people who are different they want everyone the same, and if people who are different needs to be treated equally as others.

My dear mom and dad this is why I'm in prison now. I'm stuck here with huge earphones, metal handicaps, and a clown nose just to keep my handsomeness away. Every minute I get creeped out awaiting for the screech of noise because of my smartness. I really do hate every moment spending time in that prison, and especially the Handicapper General. She did everything to destroy me and make me equal just the same as everyone else.

 I believe no one gets to deserve to be treated like this. I wanted to be free and just myself, and interact with the society. I have decided to escape that cellar and into that ballet show. I needed to experience being myself again with my handsome body, using my smart brain, and tearing off the metal handicaps with my strength. The world needs to know that everyone deserves to act freely, and be themselves. These people who wear handicaps, has a mask covering their face, wearing metal handicaps...etc. needs to experience the better them for just once. If people are like that in our world we can't possibly enjoy, and have fun since everything is so equal. Sometimes the difference in looks, strength, and smartness is necessary for a living in our life. Mom and Dad make sure you're watching TV at 3:50 PM and how the world is going to change.

Love Harrison Bergeron  
Mom and Dad this is a picture of me, and please don't think I look like this I'm actually very handsome,  and powerful.

Forrest Gump


"Run! Run! Run! Run, Forrest! Run!", said a blonde little girl. On the road another kid, a boy he ran and ran other kids chasing after him. He felt so free, and alive for the first time.

Forrest Gump the boy who ran like hell, and this is his movie. He's one of the most wonderful, and strangest man you could've ever known. This movie is one of my favorite movies, and Forr
est Gump is my favorite character of them all. He had an unexpected, and complicated life that I could never had. Gump went everywhere in life he went to Vietnam, China, all over america, and also "The White House."

I loved this movie, Gump taught me everything like, "Mama always said life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get." Well it is and Gump never knew what he's gonna get, because life is a box of chocolates you decide what you want to get. He did all kinds of crazy things he ran across America, meets the president many times and other famous people like John Lennon and the Black Panthers, invests in apple computer, and even made a speech at the Washington Monument about the Vietnam War. Gump also tried finding his true love with Jenny his best friend. She was very different from Gump, she messes up her life. Every time Gump finds her, she always gets a way to run away from him. When Gump tries to marry her she refuses because she think she's not good enough and leaves him again. But no matter what Gump believed Jenny needed a better man to take care of her. Forest Gump a billionaire, famous ping pong player, a celebrity, a hero...etc. Even though he has a low IQ he succeeded in his life. He made his life worth living.

The Landlady

Unexpected, well "The Landlady" is funny and quite creepy. But it's very unexpected, and the ending is an unexpected twist. I could never possibly imagine such an ending mostly I couldn't believe Roald Dahl writes this. He wrote The Landlady by starting off normally and slowly it starts hinting clues to make it seems creepy. Then at the end you were confused, but afterwards you slowly realize what has happened. In the end of the story the landlady poisons Billy's tea and intends to kill him for taxidermy like she did to the previous guests she had. I know....it's totally perverted by using people for taxidermy. The story is great but Roald Dahl is just weird, I loved the way of his writing and imagination (even if it's perverted).

Pride & Prejudice

From what I think of "Pride & Prejudice" so far is funny, and written in an old fashion way. I love all the characters in the story so much. In Pride & Prejudice Elizabeth is one of my favorite characters, she never cared of what others think. Elizabeth is smart, and has her opinion, but she is prejudiced. I never believed in first impressions, but Eliza did she hated Darcy the first time she met him. Sometimes you really need to know that person well enough to really judge him/her. Because afterwards when Eliza goes to Pemberley and meets Darcy by accident she realizes that Darcy isn't that proud at all. The writing style is very old fashion, but funny in a way too. I think Jane Austen is a great author even if this book was during 1813 and now is 2013 it's still quite interesting to read. There were some difficulties for me while reading, but I managed through. 

P.S. 2013-1813 
= 200 YEARS!!

Sherlock Holmes: The Red Headed League


“The Red Headed League” is a real mysterious, and creepy story. This short story builds up suspense, and solves a mystery. I really loved this story, because you could really feel the frustration of Dr. Watson, because he couldn’t solve the mystery like Sherlock does. Sherlock is a person that sees people, and things in very detailed ways, and he doesn’t have friends which is incredible. If Sherlock is a real character, then I would definitely want to be friends with him. He doesn’t have any friends, because people thinks he’s weird by looking at us and knowing our whole life. But I believe that’s a real cool thing he can do. In this story Sherlock already knows about the whole mystery happening on, and I thought it was all because of the red head job that’s being weird in the story. But when everything gets solves out at the end, you just couldn’t believe because it was exactly the opposite of what you thought it was. Sherlock Holmes: The Red Headed League is an interesting, and mysterious story that’s worth reading.

The Road Not Taken

"The Road Not Taken" is a short poem of a traveler who's encountered two roads, and he wonders which road should he choose.

The Road Not Taken
by Robert Frost

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,

And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;


Then took the other, as just as fair
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same, 

An both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I –
I took the one less travelled by,
And that has made all the difference.

This poem teaches us in the world you don't always have to follow other's steps, if you're who you are be yourself. In the poem the traveler chose the way that's different than others, so in life there are many choices you can make and it always depends on yourself. I believe following behind others isn't what we are, we should really represent ourselves by choosing the choice that we want. We shouldn't be afraid for the choices we make, people should be proud of the choices. People might be scared that others will laugh at our decision, we should never be afraid. The choices we make really do make a big difference in our life in the future.
