Night


Night-
This was not a book that I read in SSR but it is a book that I remember like crazy. This book was a unbelievable journey through what life really use to be. The Nazis ruled everything... Homes, businesses, and even people were "owned" like slaves. In this book the story follows a young boy that soon will have to face the facts of being a man at age 9ish. This book started off being a happy family just reading about the Nazis and soon after, tragedy strikes their home. Nazi officers barge through the door. Everyone worked. The men and the women were separated so that was the end to the happy family. Divided by age next... Old and young, killed! Teens to middle aged, Worked as well as beaten and starved.
This Boy brings us along for a death defying ride through hell and back. This was the reality tv show that scares everyone but unfortunately this was real. This was the best book of all time! I liked the informative sense in NIGHT.

To Cancer I Say


Cancer. A very scary thought! I have distant family members that were diagnosed with cancer. With the help of the hospitals all around Maine, they actually recovered fully. I would love to be able to give back to the hospitals and doctors that contributed to the cure. I would give money, clothes, anything to help! I would even volunteer my time to any of the hospital. I can't stress how much I thank the Cancer Society. Once again, Thank you so much!

The Sun N' Me

The sun. So bright. So needed. So me. This is my tarot card... I got to choose it this time but I chose The Sun because I see myself as bright, kinda needed, and just a happy person most of the time. When you think of the sun, you don't see anything special, well that is what I was looking for. I am nothing special. When I am there it is just like wow, look the sun, when I am not there, it's nothing new. People also wonder about me... well, I wonder about myself also...

the four ferocious roses


The four of us are a rose bush, always poking the others, competing for just about everything. The red of the rose pedal is the best color for us also. Red represents hate and terror not that we hate each other but if we are around each other for a long time we would defiantly think that. We have a bit of a twist to the taste too, you bite, we sting. Just the sight of us all gives you the sense of fighting and screaming at each other. Separately we are beautiful, all of us together is just way too much!

It's Faith.




IT’S FAITH

When I finally get a tattoo I want the name Faith on one wrist and Texas on the other. Faith is what I want to name my first daughter. Texas is going on my other wrist because I was born in Edna and I have always had a thing for Texas. Also if I end up getting another tattoo, it will be some sort of cool tribal tattoo. If not a tribal tattoo it will be a humorous tattoo. I know I shouldn’t get a tattoo because when I’m walking around at seventy years old it is not going to be attractive and probably not so hot for my health but I defiantly want to get Faith and Texas on my wrist. The tattoo above is kinda what I want except I would like them the other way and where it says hope, I want Texas.

This was a very hostile book. Night is a unbelievably terrifying death ride through ancient times. Also this book was full of so many different emotions including agony. Agony is a extreme physical or mental suffering. I mention this because you know what happened and yet you cannot do anything about it. The Jewish people of this book were tortured, abandoned, and starved to death. Nazi officers were the only people in charge and the Jews sometimes tried to protest against them but could not even begin to get an advantage. Jews that attempted to protest suffered the ultimate price, death. The Holocaust lasted about thirteen years all together but the man who wrote Night was only condemned for about one year but this was a year of starvation, departed from family, and tortured by oppressing Nazi officers. The victims of the Holocaust were unremitting and always worked hard with barely rewarded.
Night was a unforgettable story of this man that started out as a boy in 1933 and ended up being a man that has been scarred with brutal images of gruesome deaths of family and friends and even people he had never met. I personally don't think that any person should ever witness what Elie Wiesel did in his childhood or even adult hood. I also learned many things like when your in a life and death situation, your mind is not in control anymore it is your savaged body. When I think of myself being in that situation I think that I would rebel against them but as I mentioned before, you would either get beaten to very close to death or you would be killed! I think about if the Nazis have any remorse of what they had "accomplished". Also another thing I wonder is if the Jews ever did show fear and regret of being born or if they have ever thought of suicide during the Holocaust... In conclusion Night is a wonderful book and it is an excellent educating novel.
