14-15

It was really sad that Beah’s child hood hero was Rambo, what makes it worse is that that not only didn’t he know it was fiction he also has the means to copy him. It was sad that he had fallen so far that even killing was alright. Another sad thing was when Beah wanted toe kill the prisoner to win the competition. Probably the saddest part was when the army boys attacked the rebel boys.

12-13

The memories and dreams he had during this chapter were really sad. I think that the beginning oh Beah’s spiral down was incredible sad and I think it was unfair of the solders to threaten and brainwash the people into fighting for them. Also the first shot he takes and the first pill he took are both important times.

ch3-5

these chapters are relay sad and horrible, his violent experiences are hardening him and it is unfair that nether army is actually fighting for the people. and it is incredibly sad that they are deteriorating so rapidly

ch 1-2

These chapters 1-2 were depressing and I am so sad that people could do this to other people. I am saddened and that people thought that it was cool. It was almost foreboding in the beginning with the refugees. The detail in witch the author describes these events is shocking. I felt sort of depressed by reading this but I would have been more struck by it if I didn’t already know what the major plot points were.

ibo responce

in the beginning the ibo were unsure and attacked the white men. then after the white men killed the town the rest of the ibo treated them with indifference. then later when the church had a lot of people there were more conflicts. Finally the conflict grew so out of hand that the church was destroyed. the white men think they are better than ibo people and think they are all savages

okonkwo

okonkwo ignores the female side of himself and this causes problems because it shoves most everyone away from him. also, he doesn't except the female attributes because he vues them as weakness and okonkwo hates weakness. and finally it makes him feel awkward with people.

Okonkwo

i think Okonkwo is not a bully for beating his wives because that was expected. but i think that he was he was manly for his valor in war. also i think he is reckless and hot headed, like when he beat his wife during holly week. Okonkwo in my opinion is insecure, every chance he can he compares himself to his father.  also he believes that he is always right and all other ways are wrong, like when Okonkwo sees his children doing anything he thinks to be a sign of laziness he beats them

so much unfariness of things

 i think the a t in the end p.s. will be turned in by jumbo. the reason is that he wouldn't be put in the story if there was no purpose to his existence in the story. i also think that ps and his dad will make up.

"Not Waving But Drowning" or "misjudgment"

    I can’t remember a time when I have misjudged someone or something as much as when I was going into the 8th grade. I thought that the school, Saint Andrews Episcopal School, would be horrible because of the people and the school uniform. As the year went on I began to like it.  In the beginning I thought the uniform would not only remove my sense of individuality but also would make me feel that I am being molded into their model of a perfect person. However, later in the school year I began to realize that because of the uniforms I was free from the habitual question of what to wear to school. Also there was next to no teasing on what other students wore to school. In retrospect, I can see more of the good that the school uniforms provided. It was really sort of comforting to know I misjudged the school. Also, I thought that the students there would be either stuck up, or unfriendly.  They all proved me wrong. In fact they were some of he nicest people I have ever met. I think I made more friends there than anywhere else I have ever lived.
