Journal 70: Narrator

Thinking about narrator, some stories' narrators are fake. You never know if the narrator is right or wrong. The reason people use this style to write stories. It's just to make the reader feel interesting, like when you think the result is this, but it turns out differently. Sometimes when people read stories, the narrator keep saying this saying that, it makes you think you believe in the character. The writer use this kind of advantage to make story more interesting. Sometimes reader will read a story and think they know the ending and they will stop reading. Writer will make narrator's words very unique, which makes you think should you believe him or not. That is a technique to trick readers. That makes the story more interesting and the reader will welling to finish the story. I didn't read much story because I watch movie, I think harry potter is the movie that can trick me best. I always think the teacher is the bad guy, but actually the teacher is protecting the main character. Because of that, I am willing to finish that movie, before I was thinking stop watching, that is why stories and movie makes narrator lie. It's to make story interesting and fun.

Journal 69: Scary Stories

The things I afraid the most is spider, because they have egg legs, and when they move together it's very disgusting. The spiders that I am afraid is the one that has thick, fury legs. If there is one place that spider climb over, I will never go there any more. During graduation trip, me and my classmates, we watched a lot of scary movies together. The first movie was "one missed call", I'm glad we watch the English version, because people say Japanese made the scariest movie. One missed call is very scary because the sound effect and ghost animation is very scary. Plus the story is very interesting and scary. The "one missed call" scariest part is the music. After we watched the movie and everyday in music class, and I will play that song. Hank will always scream at me and hitting me, telling to stop playing. I like the days in graduation trip and when we watch scary movies, because someone is so scary that almost jump on me. I kept hurt by Hank because when I jump back when the scary scene come out. Hank was sitting behind me with his knee up, when I jump back, "Boom". It's like something poked in to my back!!

Journal 68: My Style

If I want to talk about my style, the first thing I would want to talk about my music style, the music I like to listen. I like to listen to music. I like to listen to piano music, I like to listen to the piano music play by Maksim. He is my favorite piano player, and I always look up on him. He is a very good piano player, and he is very famous. I went to his piano concert once, and he scare me with his piano skill. In 2012, there is one friend call Sean Von, and he came to our school. He introduce me electronic music, and I love it like speed of lightning. Especially, there is one type call "Dubstep" it means "A genre of electronic music descended from garage music, characterised by its dark mood, sparse, half-step and two-step rhythms, an average bpm of 140 and an emphasis on sub bass." One of my favorite song is call "kill everybody", I like it because the maker use the bass very very heavy and I like it really much, I listen to it every single day. For my clothing, most of time I want to wear comfortable, so I chose to wear T-shirt plus sport short. Except when I go to some special places, I would dressed in jeans and T-shirt, which look more cool!.

Journal 67: Betrayal

In the poem the Japanese girl and her est American friend end up badly. Her American best friend think her best friend betray her. I don't think this is not reasonable. The girl didn't do anything and she was insult by her best friend. It's all because the war, and the war cause a lot of destruction. They can destroy friendship, family ship. The case of me betray by someone is that one time. Me and my classmate argue about some idea and my classmate doesn't even help me, they decide to attack me with language, but they still lose, that classmate try to bring back our friend ship, but I don't want to be friend with him anymore, this thing also bring to me betray my classmate that help that guy argue with me. I actually team up with the friend that I argue with, we argue with, we group together and insult that friend very bad. I think he deserve it. There is also one time my friend betray me, and it's all about groups between me and the other classmate. My best friend didn't help me by standing in my side. That made me very angry, because I treated him so well, but he thought our friend ship as crap. I think he translate to other school, because everyone insult him because he was no a good friend.

Journal 66: Real American

             I think the girl doesn't have much to prove she is a American, I think if you want to prove you are a country's citizen. You cannot just say you have that country's passport. For me I think if  one of your parent's is American, than you are a true American, because you have American blood flow through your body, I am thinking this way. Some of our classmates think they are American just because they have a American passport. I don't like that because their parents weren't even American. From the poem, even the girl try hard to prove she is American by saying she like hot dog. She doesn't know how to use chopstick. That does sound like American, but her look was not close to American. When she say that "When the first tomato ripened, She'd missed me". I think that means that she is going to somewhere which will stay here for a long time. The person is sad because no matter how hard she tried to act like American, she just won't pass. If I have to prove myself I am a Taiwanese. The first thing I will say is that I look like Taiwanese, and I can speak Taiwanese. Also I have Taiwanese passport, and my parents are Taiwanese, and also I love Taiwan, if anyone insult Taiwan, I would be very piss. That is what I think I am a true Taiwanese. 

Journal 65: General Conditions

Making generalizations about the Camp Harmony during World War Two. I guess it would be " all Japanese are unhappy because they are force to leave their home". I think this is right, because during World War Two, Americans think Japanese as a dangerous kinds. They want to put them all together in one place, so they could take a look on them. Which is the camp that they made " Camp Harmony", all Japaneses are force to move there. There is no choice of not going, if you don't go, they might move you violently. That is why people were sad because they have to leave there home. After they leave their home, the teacher says that there will be theft going to these houses. That is pretty evil to those Japanese who live in USA for a long time. If I should make an generalization about our school, I think it would be. Everyone in PAS think that less homework for student which gives better education to student. I think it's true, because sometimes a student has too much homework, which doesn't make them study, because they are tired to do those homework. This generalization could lead to a new world that student will fight for and argue about.!!

Journal 64: Camp Harmony?

I think the camp harmony is a camp that keeps all the trouble maker. I think Harmony is something that will harm on something. Monica Sone seems camp Harmony was hopefully, which I think that she is OK with the camp name. I thought the camp name would be something racist to those people. I think this camp name is OK for me too, because I don't really know what it means, but if the camp name is some how insult my country, I would not be happy about it. Camp Harmony sound like a camp that they keep all the people that would" harm" the country, during Word War two. Americans were fighting Japanese, so Americans are keeping all the Japanese in USA in camp harmony.
Base on the real meaning of harmony, I guess wrong. My classmates say it's like peace and calm. Base on Dictionary it's something about quiet music, science. If I got a chance to name the camp, the first thing I will not do is prison Asian. I think I will prison people the people that look Asian, but keep saying they are American  (no offence), my camp name will be something not offensive. It will be "Camp Bragging Dude", it's made for prison those people who look Asian, but keep saying they are American just because they have that past port.I don't like that kind of person, especially they keep saying how bad is Taiwan.

Journal 63: Camp Pictures.

            I choose the picture on page four hundred seventy six, the picture shows that there is a lot of people and they are going to a place. I am surprise because it's not just any people but only Asian. I think they are Japaneses, because the painter is Japanese too. I think the American put all Japanese in the same area. Base on the teachers' information because it's during World War two and Americans were poisoning Japanese because they afraid they will tell secret to their own people. In the picture the children might not understand what is happening, but the adults, some of them are crying or they have sad face. I see about forty to fifty people lining up and waiting to go into a house. If I was there, I think I can feel the feeling of leaving my home and going to a camp that people will look on us. I think I can hear crying from some adults, children laughing and they don't even know what was happening. I think it's different from what I live now, because I can live with my family and there is no soldier, or foreigner looking at me. I am pretty much free in my place, I 'm happy.

Journal 62: Spring Break

During this spring break, the two places I went is Yi Lan and Bali. I like the trip in Bali because I get to travel to some country without my parents controlling me but with classmates. In Bali the tour guide wanted us to beware of the people, because they could steel your stuff. There is one classmate lost his sun glass and he say that the air port security stole it. In the Bali, it was very beautiful there. The worker their were call G.O. They are nice and they are like our friend. At night some of the 8th grade, we gather in one room, we also take out a computer, and we watched some scary movies. We planned to watch them during the trip. There was one thing I don't really want to do was that the teacher wanted us to join a group that bring you around the club med. I don't like it because some of the members aren't that nice. We ditched them and we party in the room. There is one time that we ruin a room because we have pillow fight. We flip over the bed and we have a fun time, we throw stuffs around. We also make giant spit ball and threw it on the window. It was awesome, Sean got a cup of milk and he spilled it on the ground. I guess the cleaning lady will go crazy after seeing this. I have a lot of fun time their especially at night. The second place I went is Yi lan, and I was under control by my family, so I can't really do things crazy. The hotel is Yi Lan royal hotel and they had good room service, good hot spring and good sport set. My father teach me how to play pool. It took skills and luckiness.  I hope that I can stay longer because there were still things that I didn't play. There is my trips during the spring break.
