Independent Reading

The book i read was Giving up the "V". In the pages I read she was in the doctor's office waiting for him to go in. She was talking about how it was her 16th birthday and had to spend it in their getting her vagina checked. Her mom had a rule that once her daughters turned 16 they would have to use birth control. She thought it was nonsense because she was still a virgin.

Marys View of a Perfect World

You have just entered Desire, a world full of wonders. This isn't just any regular world it represents the way life should really be,its basically living life as an utopia. My world has seven basic rules to follow. In life these seven rules should be follow to contribute to this planet and make it an even better one. Everything is never perfect but sometimes imagining it was makes me believe there can be changes.

My first rule would be respect the people who surround you. Having respect for others is one of the most important things because if you don't respect others how do you expect to respect yourself. One of the reasons why is because you have to give to receive and in this case it is to be respected. An example of this is when you meet a person and you introduce yourself you wouldn't want them to ignore you, that is a way of showing disrespect. Another example that happens very often is guys calling girls inappropriate names. In my opinion i find this the worst disrespect because if they are calling a girl an inappropriate its like their disrespecting their own mother.

Do Now 4/26

I would follow Snowball because he is not evil. He represents Trotsky and i believe in what Trotsky wrote in his books. His beliefs were right and what Stalin was doing was wrong , he murdered people to gain power and that is just plain wrong.
