You Can Do It

"Si se puede!" - Cesar Chavez

     This quote is saying that yes it is possible.  It speaks to me because it's saying that if you want to do something but you think it's "too hard" try it anyway you might be able to do it. Cesar Chavez wanted humane treatment and safer working conditions for the farms in California.  Cesar Chavez's quote, "Si Se Puede!" has inspired Barack Obama's campaign.

TTYL By: Lauren Myracle

TTYL Summary

    TTYL is about 3 best friends that are named Angela, Zoe, and Madigan (Maddie).  The book is written as if they are instant messaging each other.  There's this girl that is really popular and her name is Jana.  They all hate Jana because she betrays her "friends", meaning she talks behind their back.  Somehow Maddie becomes friends with Jana and starts doing things with her.  That puts Angela, Zoe and Maddie's friendship at stake.  I wonder what happens next.  I am more than half way through the book. I think I can finish it over Thanksgiving break.

What is the Lesson/Theme?

    Well my book TTYL is about 3 best friends that are named Angela, Zoe, and Madigan (Maddie).  The book is written as if they are instant messaging each other.  So far Maddie has made a friend named Jana.  She used to hate Jana because she would make up rumors about her.  Now they are friends and Angela is jealous because she thinks that Jana is trying to take Maddie away from her and Zoe.  I think the theme of this story is friendship because the author, Lauren Myracle is trying to tell the reader that you have to trust your friends, they won't turn on you.

Where on you on the plot diagram?

      The book I am currently reading is called, I EVEN FUNNIER By James Patterson.  Right now I am in the climax.  I know this because Jaime Grimm (main character) is at his comedy competition and he feels the pressure because he thinks that the rest of the contestants are better than him.  His cousin is  there watching him and they both hate each other.  At his school Stevie Kosgrov (his cousin) is the bully and his target is everyone but mostly it is Jaime Grimm.  I wonder what happens next. Will Jaime Grimm win the competition or will he be humiliated? Jaime better use jokes that are original to him.
