Photography!

The topic that i have chosen is photography. Photography is the science art and practice of creating durable images I've been thinking about doing photography for a while but never actually came around to it. Photography always seems to get my attention just by the way a picture can make something so simple and make it look beautiful.It's something really cool, with photography you get to see things in a different way, than how you would normally see it. Photography interest me in many ways and i really want to learn more about it and improve my skills.

Notes:)

Ch4: Holden might have a crush on a girl named Jane. Stradlater is taking her on a date and Holden dosent like that idea of that. Ch5: We realize that Holden is not what they make him seem like. In this chapter we see a sesitive side that only seems to come out when he talks about children especially his brother Allie, and his sister Phoebe. Ch6: Stradlater ended up going on that date with jena. Holden smokes a cigarette. He gets in a fight with stradlater. He might get expelled because he has failed tooo many classes. ch7: After the fight he walks in his room and starts to feel lonesome because of the whole argument he had with stradlater earlier that day. ch13: Some people took his gloves. He dosent do anything to get them back because he Knows that if he were to walk in front of who ever took them he wouldnt do anything because he is a coward.

Chapter 3 summary response!

the tone of the author changes alot in the story, which sometimes changes mine while i read it as well. The author introduces two new characters to the story. Ackley and Stradlate, who are complete opposites. Although they might seem like total oppposites they are actually alike. Stradlater might be like in love with himself, he is always trying his best to look good, but Ackley he is not like him he's messy and other stuff like that. i feel like Stradlater might be like him in a way even though he always tries to look good he can be a little messy.

ALL THE DAVID COPPERFIELD KIND OF CRAP

In ch 1 and 2 they show his character as a troubled and defiant kid who dosent care about his grades and his and his future. The characters of Mr and Mrs Spencer both seem very different from each other. Mrs.Spencer so far seems like a sweet lady but Mr.Spencer he may be nice at times but sometimes he can be one of those people to get on your nerves just by the way he talks to you, by turning every conversation into a life lesson.

My Poem Opinion

'You are strong, You are brave its what everybody sees all your scars and tears just make you more perfect to me i know your in the dark trying to find your way but i'll be there to guide you every second, every day' ~ c.k I really liked this poem because it just went perfectly with the story i was reading a while back. the girl from the story had just been was in a car accident and she was bruised and injured pretty bad. she was kinda insecure after the accident because of how badly the bruises looked and the new ones that were forming but she didnt let them define who she was. Which was one of the reasons i liked it because you can relate to it in so many different ways.The poem itself has a very meaningful meaning behind it you just have to look at it from a different perspective.
