I was considering a book called like, the light of the world, or something like that, but it was about science, so I said no to that. It's about three girls so I'm expecting drama. I think one of them is pregnant. I don't think it's part of a series. I think it might be kind of easy, but theres a movie about it, so I'm prepared to watch that for extra in a project. It seems like something I would normally read.

It makes me extremely angry that there are no chapters, just one long book. I don't really want to read it, and am having trouble picking it up to even begin to start.

  • "The Diamond Necklace"
  • When I started reading it I didn't recognize it, but halfway through I recognized it. I had read that story before. I forgot that the necklace was fake. I don't understand why you wouldn't just buy a fake necklace to return. I guess these people had morals. They could have just told their friend. It  kinda reminded me of Cinderella, but reverse. She got a night to be fancy, but then it ruined the rest of her life and remained poor. I think the moral was like: don't try to have too much if you can't handle it

  • "Rappaccini's Daughter"
  • This story has a lot of metaphors. comparing her and the flowers to sisters "The human sister of those vegetable ones..." This story is actually a lot more demented than I thought it would be. Rappaccini actually makes poison in his garden and Beatrice is somehow attached. She grew up around the poisonous plants, a became a poison herself. She may look beautiful but evil is hiding within her. Giovanni loved her and tried to fix her. but she died!!!! I thought that the dark twist in the story was really cool. I could picture the garden the whole time, and then realizing she breathed poison. the whole garden in my mind changed to dark greens and purple.

  • "A Rose for Emily"
  • Emily hides away in her house and her town is nosey. I hated how much the town didn't care about her, they just wanted to see in her house. She's a psychopath. She poisons her boyfriend and positions his body to hold. " what was left of him rotted underneath a nightshirt." She lays in bed with his dead rotting body. I don't know why you'd want that. Couldn't she just hang out with him while he was alive? What was the need to poison him? She has massive separation issues.

  • "A Piece of String"
  • The setting kind of reminded me of a Renaissance Festival. This story is probably my least favorite I've read so far. It didn't have enough detail. It had a picture though, that was cool. Why did the neighbor hate him? something about a bridal? I don't understand why they were so mean to him. Why did he want string anyway? Most of these stories are intense. These characters are all poor or dead. There really was not much to this story.

  • “The Ransom of Red Chief”
  • This was the best story I read. It was placed in the old west and conversational grammar was wrong. "Bill and me" and "ought" are examples. They kidnap a boy, but the kids more than they bargained for. The kid is a pain to deal with. They ask his dad for money for the kid back, but the father asks for the kid back and to be paid. Bill even said that was worth it to get rid of the boy. The language they used made me laugh. These two kidnappers were definitely not bright. They end up running away to Canada and honestly thats so cliché and funny to me.

  • "Musicians: John Lennon"
  • The Beatles are probably my favorite musicians. I know almost everything about their stories. When I read this I knew most of the information. I didn't actually know that he "enjoyed drawing grotesque figures and cripples". I also didn't know about his vision about a "flaming pie". I also don't know why it's called the PLASTIC Ono band. hy plastic???

  • "Iraq: Ballet school speaks to city's resilience"
  • Ballet is a hard skill to learn, you have to train your body to move certain ways. The violence in these cities is absolutely terrible. Schools shouldn't be destroyed. No one should be harmed or shamed for learning or talent. "The school removed its large street sign to escape attention." Talent shouldn't be hidden.

  • "When lava flows, a Hawaiian goddess' name is invoked"
  • I love myths, and how they put stories behind nature. I wish I had more culture like that around here. I also love that they have rules to it. How to know when its suitable for humans again, and not the goddess' land anymore. I also liked that they described myths as romantic. "it's easy to put feelings and emotions and romance into it,"

  • "Dream Jobs: Ice cream art director"
  • I love art and I want to do something artistic with my life. I thought it was cool how she could work from home, yet also get to come in and collaborate. She does more than just art, she also samples ice cream flavors when she comes in. I wasn't expecting her ob to be very important, just signs and things. "[she is] working on a pint design that will appear in supermarkets nationwide."She actually creates the labels for ice-cream that goes into grocery stores!

  • "Musicians: Bruno Mars"
  • I knew that "Bruno Mars" was just a stage name but I didn't know the story behind it. "The name Bruno comes from baby times...[he] was always so confident, independent, really strong-willed and kind of a brute." He's such an amazing singer with a unique voice. I thought it was funny how he came over to the states and thought he'd make it big on covers. I'm sad that out of all his music that Uptown Funk won the grammy. He did so much better work.

  • "How chocolate and Valentine's Day mated for life"
  • Apparently chocolates are kind of naughty. I understand that they were for royalty, but they are also described as a "go-to symbol of seduction." It was a love food for the Mayan and Aztec upper class. In India they thought it could even cure illnesses. Chocolate has a lot more importance than it just being yummy!!!

  • "Explainer: The Gods Behind the Days of the Week"
  • Basically, the days of the week were named after gods. Some Roman and some latin, even Norse gods were represented sometimes. The days of the week were named after the planets that the certain gods related to. The week starts on Sunday or Monday due to the jewish calendar. The Christian Church also had a lot to do with the development of it.

  • "The history of popular New Year's traditions"
  • New Years is and always was a celebration of hope and new beginnings. Auld Lang Syne is Scottish for "for old times". New Years is a time to reflect also. The New York ball drop started 1907 and has continued since. Many cultures celebrate things differently. Chinese and islamic cultures have a different new year by the lunar calendar. and africans throw furniture as a sign of good luck.

  • "Five things to know about giving and receiving holiday gifts"
  • there's a lot more psychology about gift giving than I thought. Women tend to have positive emotions toward being given bad gifts, but men get a negative emotion toward the relationship. Also, people tend to like gifts close to the giver, not just something typical of the recipient. Gifts aren't the only happy thing about Christmas though, Family traditions are also a key part of the holiday.

  • "The Real Electric Frankenstein Experiments of the 1800's"
  • This scientist-Ure-thought that electricity was the spark of life, and tested electricity and corpses. Starting with frogs, moving up to oxen, then corpses of murderers. He would lecture to students how bodies react to electricity. Faces would twist and smile and fingers would point, chests would heave. Terrifying reactions. He never brought anyone back to life, and no scientific data actually came from the experiments.
