Schooled

Schooled

Prompt: Who is the most interesting character in the book and why.

          The book Schooled is a very good book and I think that the most interesting character in the book is Capricorn Anderson or as people call him cap. I think that he is the most interesting character because he is not updated with today's society and I feel as if he will be but it will just take a while to.

           I think that he is also interesting because he can do stuff that a normal teen wouldn't do, for example he can drive. I have a question for you, how many 13 year olds have you met that can drive?! I think that this also makes him one of the most courageous person in he book. From his free spirited mind to him being a bit naive, Capricorn Anderson is one of the coolest person that I have ever read about.


          In the end I will be finished with this book by Friday so this is my last blog on this book. Make sure to leave a comment on what did you think about the book and if you will read it. I will start reading Zebra Forest next week so be prepared for some awesome blogs!

Schooled. Predict what will happen next.


Prompt: • Predict what will happen next.

       I think that later on in the book that he is going to be treated like a regular person and that Rain will become healthier and she will say come home with me and he will object and stay at school. I think that in the end the book will leave us a message that says to accept others no matter how different they are. Thats just my prediction.
          
Another prediction that I have is that he will fall in love with the girl who despises him and thinks that he is a freak. I think this because it would be a good plot twist so basically the "strange" guy gets the girl that cares a lot about her image. I think that this will definitely spice up the  story and give it an amazing twist.

Finally I must admit the fact that I have very high expectations for this book and if they do not come true than thats okay. I believe that this book will be very good and it is good so far so I will finish the book by next week on Monday because I had backtracked and I didn't get to get as much reading as I wanted to but I will be done with this book by next week monday.

Blog of 1/12/15

Schooled☮

Prompt: Describe the similarities and differences between the main character and you.

          The book Schooled is about a hippie who goes to school. I believe that me and the main character are different because the character is a little bit not up to date since he had been homeschooled his whole entire life which is very strange. Capricorn Anderson is the main character and sometimes he can be a misfit because our society is way different from the 70's.

          A similarity that I have with the main character is that me and him are both a bit courageous. Although I don't drive I do take a stand if I believe something is wrong. Some people in school can be a bit rude and Capricorn Anderson understands the same struggle that other kids have to deal with everyday. Some people may be able to relate to this or not but sometimes being weird is good. It is good to standout if your doing so positively. 

          In the end the book is very good and I will be done maybe by the next week and because of that I might try to do a blog every 2 days just to keep you updated on how the book goes. In the end the book leaves us with a message and that is to be weird, it wont kill you to be yourself. :)

The first time I...

The first time I...

Prompt:When was the last time you did something for the first time?

          The last time I did something new for the first time was when I went to the music store and I had bought a song from the store to play at home on my flute. I had never gone shopping for music so looking for music was very tricky, looking for the perfect song that works for both level and skill of playing the instrument was very hard. Luckily I managed to succeed and I found the perfect song.
          The book that I had bought which featured various songs was called Wicked. Now you may know Wicked from Broadway, but the music is very challenging. When trying to play the song alone while not being accompanied by the other instruments its hard to tell if you should play soft or to play very dramatic. Now I know to always be aware of what you are getting yourself into.

          Because of this learning experience I now know how to pick out the right music for me to play. I now know 3 of the songs and I am proud that I learned to play all alone. People who are looking to by music to play should definitely  keep in mind of what they can play and what they can not. No matter if its to easy or to hard always strive to accomplish what is ahead and never look back.
