Some thoughts and feelings I have are that it’s really sad to think that families actually could have came home to their family gone and nowhere to be seen. And that people were separated from their family at a young age is really sad.

“None of us really knows how to take it all.”

This quote resonates with me because I’ve had moments where I didn’t know how to handle something but Anne’s situation is very different than mine would be.

Something that confused me was when Anne’s mom asked if she could say her prayers with her tonight, and Anne declined it kind of rudely. It confused me because why does she only want her dad to say bedtime prayers? Why not her mom?

I’m noticing the signpost tough questions because there are a lot things I have questions about and I’m just like why? For example in page 78 Anne mentions how she thinks the food is miserable. Im kind of questioning that because I would be grateful for even getting to eat because she would have been taken away if they didn’t go to the Annex.

Some thoughts and feeling I have is when Anne says, “The gunfire troubled us no longer, our fear was banished!” This kind of concerns me because if she’s been around enough gunfires to get used to it that’s kind of sad. I feel that’s not good for her mental health.

Pages 116-117

My thoughts and feelings while reading those pages are why did she write freaking 2 pages over a pen? Was it that important? Why does Anne talk so much about little things.

Anne said, “I hid myself within myself, I only considered myself and quietly wrote down all my joys, sorrows, and contempt in my diary,”

My thoughts and feeling while reading this is like I genuinely want to ask her if she’s okay because I feel like she’s having some mental problems.

Anne said, “ I usually keep my mouth shut if I get annoyed”

This kind of personally connects with me because I do also stop talking and get quiet when I get annoyed.

Anne starts talking about a lot of non-school topics and it just surprised me a lot that she was like that? I would have never thought she was like that.

Anne said, “Peter belongs to me and no one knows anything about it.”

This surprised me because I didn’t think she was THAT into Peter and that obsessed with him.

Pages 182-185

These pages surprised me because Anne and Margot send each other letters and actually acting like loving sisters. This really surprised me because I didn’t ever think they would make up. But I think they are maturing enough to get along.

Anne and Peter are kissing each other on the cheek. My thoughts and feelings about this page are that i didn’t think that they would start kissing….. I didn’t think they were THAT serious about each other. I’m kind of happy for Anne because I think she found someone that really loves her, but also I don’t think it’s a good idea to love someone like that while your hiding if you know what I mean.

When Anne said, “We finished our bread, drank lemonade and joked (we were able to again).”

My thoughts and feelings while reading this are like this is kind of sad and to think of it they are very limited in what they do. When she said “(we were able to again)” this kind of hit me like dang that’s really sad, and that she couldn’t do things freely.

Anne was talking about how they eat lettuce, spinach, and rotten potato’s. This kind of confused me because why would they feed them rotten potatoes? Like couldn’t that make them sick? And how is that little of food going to fill up everyone that is inside the Annex?

“The police are continually on the go, tracing girls of fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, and older, who are reported missing every day.”

My thoughts and feelings while reading this are that this is really sad and not a good thing to hear. It’s sad that even with the war going on, kids are still going missing. Like why would someone do that? It would already be hard enough.

Pages 265-268

These pages confused me but not what she wrote, it was that she stopped writing on August 1st, and they got caught 3 days later. I was confused by this because of how much Anne Frank wrote and talking, I though she would have had something to write about between the 3 days.

The book says that Mrs. Van Daan died at Belsen, but no witnesses marked her date. My thoughts and feeling while reading are that like that’s kinda sad. Imagine if I died but no one knew when or how I died, that just seems kinda depressing.

In this page Anne talks a lot about how she feels in very descriptive details. My thoughts and feelings while reading this are that while I was reading this I felt really sad for her and how she didn’t feel comfortable expressing her real self.

Pages 262-263

canupla183 — 2024-12-12 16:33:08 UTC

In these pages Anne talks about how Peter now clings to her. This surprises me because of how she talked to her about this situation, I didn’t think she would change because she really thought she was right.

When it says that Mrs. Frank refused to eat, this makes me confused because why wouldn’t someone want to be alive? She might have had a mental problem while being in Belsen but I would still eat to survive? I wouldn’t want to die like this.
