LATE post

I'm still reading my previous book. The class it reminds me of most is sociology. Both the class and the book show things in a more sociological outlook. It gives different veiws for common ideas.

This week I have finished the book Going to Extremes by Cass R. Sunstein, and am now getting into a book called The Dumbest Generation by Mark Bauerlein. Based mainly on the book I'm currently reading and a term from Going to Extremes, reminds me of a song called Stupid Girls by Pink. These girls in the song are completely wrapped up in their own lives that they don't care about knowing anything beyond it. Pink mocks them in a funny matter, but The Dumbest Generation explains how serious it actually is. Girls like those in the songs could very well be the future generation. With so much technology in our hands we should be able to learn more than those in the past, but it shows technology, along with a few other factors, actually is having the opposite affect.

This week I've been reading a few older National Geographic magazines for about two hours. I read all about the affects of aging, and how eating just the right things could extent your life a significant amount of time. I also learned how much the processed foods that most all Americans call normal, affect your daily life, and slow down chemicals in your brain. I also picked up an older copy about the swine flu, and how it makes more of an impact on smaller countries.

Mr.Harvey, Susies killer, has raped and killed many girls before Susie. Dennace the Menace also does a lot of bad things. ( not quite as extreme, but still ) Dennace never seems to feel bad for the bad crazy stunts he pulls. Mr. Harvey also seems to have no concience.

Lindsey Salmon was Susie's little sister. When people look at Lindsey all's they see is Susie now, and they don't see who Lindsey really is. That reminded me of those trickey pictures that you only see one thing, but if you look close and hard enough you can see that it is actually something different. In the picture above you usually only see it as a face, or the word liar.

This picture represents the never ending yearning, always wanting answers, never getting them. Your always only left with your own thoughts and theorys.

The part in the book in which the family, particularly the father, was greiving, greatly reminded me of how Mary must have wept when she saw her son also get taken from her hands. Its something greatly beyond your control, but yet you cannot help but be miserable

The book I'm reading is named Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold. Susie Salmon gets lured into a man-dug whole by a familiar neighbor one night coming home from school. This picture portrays that she was forced to stay in that whole, no longer had the free will to leave, and how much it caught her off-gaurd. She lived in a small town so no one else expected it either. It also signifies the violence in which the raping and killing was carried out.

This week I have been reading the Davinci Code. I am only a few chapters in so I'm not positive how I could make an accurate judgment and apply it correctly. From what i've heard so far, it seems just like a story, contrary to what the Bible teaches. A lot of christians are skeptical about this book. What I've read so far is purely information about Robert Langdon and other various historical references, therefore I cannot possibly apply.

I'm rubber, your glue.

Over the weekend i have finished my second book. It's title was Backwater and was written by Joan Bauer. Its about Ivy Breedlove and the journey that emphasizes her passion for history. In Ivy's family they are all lawyers, and very close-minded, and didn't easily accept people who are different; because of that her aunt Josephine was not accepted in the Breedlove family. Ivy decides to go on a quest to find her Aunt and find out exactly what happened that made her cut herself off from the family. On her way she has to depend on the guide "mountain mama" and goes through many life threatening situations: white-outs, extreme cold, animals. When she finally meets Josephine, she learns that she just liked to be alone, and loved birds more than she ever did people. She also learns a lot about who her father used to be, and a whole new perspective on life. A storm hits while she's staying, and she has to go across an icy lake in order to save Josephine. When she finally returns, everyone is thankful, and their family ties are stronger than ever.
