Making a house with chopsticks

 

Our school teacher told us to make a house of chopsticks. She told that it will affect to our term test. Because of it, I had to make my house really nice. Actually, I don't like fine arts because I am not good at it. When I was young, my friends told that I am a bad artist. So, I do not like show my pictures to anybody, even my family. First, teacher told us to make an outline of our own house. I imagine a cozy house with a beautiful garden that has lots of flowers. I drew briefly on my paper and measured the sizes. It was hard for me to decide a size of my own house because if the sizes got wrong, I had to make it again. I got help from my dad and he help me cutting the chopsticks too. Cutting chopsticks made me to use lots of strength. When dad and I finish cutting all of them, we started to glue them together. I didn't end making it. However, I hope that it will be a pretty house.

The story of Frankenstein chapter 4&5

1- What realization does Victor have in Chapter 4? What 3 reasons does Victor give for not sharing his realization with his family?

  Victor realized that the monster he created killed his brother, William. He came to Geneva because his father wrote a letter that William was murdered. However, it was too late that the gate of the Geneva was closed. So, he decided to visit the place where his brother was founded. And there, he saw a figure of a gigantic stature in the gloom. Because of this, Victor thinks that William was murdered by his creature. After realizing that, he decided to tell his family everything that he made the murderer. However, he paused and thought about what they might think about him. Himself, who brought a life to the creature and met it in the midnight of the forbidding mountain. They would also think that Victor is a madman. And, it is hard to capture the monster that can climb the steep sides of the mountain.   

2- In Chapter 4, Clerval wants to study Oriental Languages. Which languages would he most likely have studied, and what purpose do you think he would use them for?

  He wanted to study Ingolstadt language. In this story, Clerval proposed Victor to go a walking tour around Ingolstadt with him.

3- In chapter 5, page 36, Victor says: "Sometimes, with my sails set. . . . let loose among them?" Paraphrase this passage, and why does Victor choose to not follow this course of action?
  Sometimes, with my sails set, I was carried by the wind; and sometimes, after rowing into the middle of the lake, I left the boat to go its own way. I was often tempted, when all was at peace around me, to plunge in to the silent lake, which the waters might close over me forever. This means that he planned to commit suicide by throwing his body into the lake. The reason is because he regret of making the creature that killed his brother. And he felt guilty of himself to other family members not telling the truth of what he knew. But I held back when I thought of the heroic and suffering Elizabeth, whom I tenderly loved, and whose life was bound up with mine. I thought also of my father and surviving brother; should I, by departing this world, leave them exposed and unprotected to the violence of the fiend whom I had let loose among them? In this part, Victor thought about his lover, Elizabeth and his family that are very dangerous because of him. The creature might kill them suddenly like William. Also, they might be unhappy and feel sadness. So, Victor gave up to committing suicide.

Viman mek palace

  On the last day of Thai land, we went to palace where last king and queen lived. It was huge and beautiful. However, there were really strict rules. Women should only wear long skirts and man should wear long pants. I do not have any skirts, so mom and I had to buy skirts. It really doesn't look like skirt. It just looked like a long silk. There were many securities. When we just go into the palace, one security told my sister to buy a skirt. Many people told us that she look like a boy. So, we pretend her to be a boy. We were kind of shocked that we could not say anything. However, people who traveled with us told the security that she is a boy. Security didn't believe them. It was really hot day, which everybody was kind of annoyed. The people traveled together almost yelled at him and told him again that she is a boy. The security finally let her go and we looked around the Viman mek palace. It was really beautiful that I reminded myself why Thai land is famous for traveling.

Going to the airport

  On Saturday, we suppose to be at airport on three. However, we spent time on packing our bags. Because of this, we lost the bus that we should ride. We rode a bus that is one hour later than the bus we suppose to ride. During one hour, we just eat and eat. At last, we rode the bus and finally arrived at the airport. We of course lost the meeting. We wandered around to find place to attach our bags. Then we got our airplane tickets. We left only one minute and finally seat on our seat. It was really emergency situation for us. I was really thankful to everybody at that time.

The Story Of Frankenstein chapter 3 - Mary Shelley

  Frankenstein was interested in natural science. He went to a University and met some professors who major natural science. Being close with them, he thought to make a creature. I think the worst reason to make a creature is that Frankenstein tried to become greater than nature. However for human, it is impossible to do it. Even if he does it, it would cause harm to him.

   In this story on page 20, he says "I had no supernatural honors". I think it means that the creature is too ugly or strange. Frankenstein mentioned that he is not afraid of people's appearance although they look strange or ugly. However, Frankenstein gets afraid of the appearance of the monster. Monster is made of dead person's body. By this, I think that the monster's appearance is too strange even Frankenstein got afraid of him.
 

  Also another part of the story, he said "Learn from me, at least by example, how dangerous is knowledge and how much happier is that man believes his native town to be the world than he who tries to become greater than his nature will allow". I think that Frankenstein wants to tell that knowing more than other people could be dangerous like him. He was too smart and knowledgeable that he made a creature that it is impossible to make. From this part, I think that he is regretting of making the creature that he made. Also, he is trying to tell that living in an ordinary way is better than living in uncommon life as him.

Downtown

  On Sunday, I went to downtown with my sister. My mom told me to choose her bag together. Before we went to the bag store we visited some other stores just to look around. There were many interesting things however we had only money for bag, so we just came out. When we almost arrived at the bag store we usually go, however the shop was closed. And that time I met my friend at there. She went there to buy some clothes. After meeting her, I and my sister wandered the downtown to find some places that sell bags. We found some places, however my sister couldn't find the one that she wanted. So, we just planned to spend the money for playing. At first, we bought some bread which is my favorite. Eating the bread, we just walked and walked. We found some new places that we had never been. We went in there and there were lots of places that sell our traditional things. We bought some food that my parents like. Again, we walked and walked. We found out that there is nothing to do for us. So, we just grab a taxi and went home. At home, we told everything to our parents and eat food that we bought.

The story of Frankenstein - Marry Shelley

  The story of Frankenstein background is the time when Columbus discovered the America. By finding America, Columbus got many things such as wealth, fame and honor. Because of this, many people try to find something new that nobody had ever founded. And Captain Walton, was also a person who wanted to find new thing. So he tries to find something in the Arctic. By his action, we could know that he is a typical example of the man in that era. The reason is because he also wanted to find something new that nobody found and that would bring him lots of things.

  Also I disagree that ignorance is bliss. If the president of the Italy ignored the Columbus, America wouldn't be founded or it might be an underdeveloped country. And there won't be many people who try to do something new or have courage. Ignoring makes people to be depressed and less active. Depress and not active person cannot make our society develop. If people ignore someone, our society would not be developed this much. So, I think that ignorance is not bliss.
