Reflection

          Since when I was little, I was a lazy kid. I never tie my shoe lace and I wish I could have a pair of slip-on shoe but my mom doesn't know what is a slip-on shoe so never mind  I never dare to read any novel or books if I really need to. I met Siravich since Kindergarten and we never read books except the school book. The only type of book I read is manga. I love reading them. They are very fun and it was very interesting. It has a very nice story plot and it is very dramatic. It was so fun that I never read any other books. In manga we also see picture and words, this makes it very easy to visualize it in my brain and I had tons of fun. When I was assigned to do this project or whatever, Siravich told me that we should finish it fast so that we can have free time later, but as I read the book" The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn". I got more and more interested in how did the character were like and how what will they do in a situation. I could visualize it in my brain and I see many pictures in my brain and it was very fun to read this book. It was a very good book to read and I hope that we could do like this again.   Thank you

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn: Goals, Dreams, and Motives

          In the story "The Adventure of Huckleberry Finn", Huck who is the main character was adopted by the Widow had no goals. At first, he just looked like a guy with no purpose in his very own life. He just had fun the whole day doing nothing, playing around like crazy but as the Widow tried to teach him how to do the right thing at the right time, he began to change, he could read and write. But as he was almost to find out what is his goal and dream, his pap came back and he kidnapped Huck away, so Huck hasn't found his goal.  But after he escaped his pap, he met Jim in Jackson Island. They became good friends and they agreed that they will help each other out of trouble. So Huck got a new goal is that he and Jim go north and be free again. Huck also have a dream, his dream is to be free and rich. That he could do anything so he could be happy all the time. He wanted to have fun all his life and he doesn't want anyone to bother him with the rules and stuffs and many more. He wanted to sail north and go to a free state, where nobody is the boss so he could do whatever he wants and follow his dream. Huck is a very skeptic person, he usually doesn't trust another person at first. This is because he had motives. Huck had experience many bad things in life that he couldn't trust anyone but only himself. Like when Huck and Jim was saved by the duke, he let Jim stay at the raft so he could go and find valuable items in the palace but he didn't let Jim come too because he didn't trust him. He also have motive when he saw that the king has a bag of gold. He had a motive that if he had that bag of gold, it would make him more richer and make him closer to his goal. So this is all about Huck's Goals, Dreams, and motives.

       Huck is very worried now because Tom Sawyer could come in any moment so he went out and said that he was going to get his luggage on the raft and after that, he went out and waited for Tom Sawyer to come. When the two friends finally met, Tom Sawyer thought that Huck was dead but after he found out, he was glad. Then Huck told Tom about what happened and Tom agreed to help Jim out of slavery so they made a plan that Tom would act like Sid and they went together to Phelps's house. Soon they found out that Jim was kept in the shed behind the house. So that evening Huck and Tom went and told Jim that they were helping him out and they would go together.

       But when Huck was going to the shed the next day to free Jim, Toms says that they should do like what he read in the book, because it was very easy to free Jim and he thinks that it wasn't complicated at all and it wasn't fun. And Tom handed the book he read to Huck and after Huck read, he also thought that it was good to do so and they waited. And when Uncle Silas, Huck and Tom stole one of his shirt and they gave it to Jim. They also stole a pie and put it in when Jim got out, he could eat the pie and not be hungry. He even put the animals there so that when Jim escapes he could ride the animal and escape like in the book that he read.

       After they escapes, they found that gang again so the three boy ran with all their might but Tom was shot in at one of his leg and he can't continue any longer and their plan was all ruined. Now Huck and Jim must make a hard decision so Jim told Huck to go find the doctor while he will look after Tom. Huck then runs to the town and he accidentally found Uncle Silas and he lied that he and Sid is running after the runaway nigger and Sid is injured so they went to help Tom and Sid and they also helped Jim. To Huck's surprise, he found out later that two months ago, Miss Watson had passed away and she freed Jim. so now Jim is a free man again.

       While Huck, who still is saying that he is Tom and Tom is acting like Sid, Aunt Polly came and she was shocked to see Huck and she asked what happened. So Huck and Tom were caught and they were forced to confessed what they did, and their true identity was discovered. After that they all got a good talk together and Tom convince Huck and Jim to go back together and live a happy life but Huck said that he doesn't want to be bothered by his pap again so he is not going back. So Tom told him the story behind it, he told that on the day Huck escapes from his pap his pap followed him to that abandoned house and he was killed there so he can't bother Huck anymore. So now, Huck is happy and so was everyone.

Spectator sport


Spectator sport:  The Kitchen at Home
I got the picture from here
I got the picture from here
                It smells so sour, with no salt, so boring when eating, and the kitchen looked nice and clean. The scenery is very old and the scent makes us want to sleep. It was a place filled with instant noodle, everywhere, instant noodle. “The bowl of instant noodle smells unseemly like (tom-yum) but it is (tom yum Kung) flavored. The noodles looked mellow but are as hard as rock, so hard, rigid and hard to chew. The microwave is not working so well either. It sounds like “Ekk-pow! Ding-ping! Ping- pang, ding- dong” and the food that is cooking inside burned every time. Sometimes the banana rot on top of the microwave and it looked like fried (poop) and it smelled like tuna in the mayonnaise can. Inside the cupboard is storage. Like soy-sauce, hays- blue-boy, canned food etc... Sometimes, there are so many disparity cockroaches in the garbage can and it eating the plastic bag which makes the smell comes out and it stinks so much. There are green, black, and even white cockroach.It smelled like rotting banana mixed with fried boiled egg and preserved in vinegar. It looks like a sewage that we find under the man hole and under the streets. Some of the eating utensils like spoon, fork, knife, metal bowl. Etc… are rusty, it got a sour-smell and it had orange color in it. It also smelled like orange marmalade jam in soy-sauce. The food that was cooked was homogeneous, too plain and there was no salt to put so everything is so plain and the food got no taste in it. Most of the food smelled like tofu, just plain tofu with no sauce and it was hard to swallow because it was too plain. The frying pan is very heterogeneous, orange-brownish colored mixed with purplish – green color at the handle. The food cooked in that frying pan looked orange – blue with sesame on top. The refrigerator has a big rusty brownish red color on top but the inside of the refrigerator is still chilly and cold. On top of the refrigerator is the red apple. It looked green because it’s not ripen yet, and it smelled so sour. So the kitchen at my home is nice and clean but boring and plain!

one word that describe me

One word that describe me

I think the word that describe is malleable. because when I think of that word, I feel good and i am a chill person which like to "go with the flow". and that makes me very proud. I have four close friend and we usually play basket ball after school. And when i play, I usually shoot the ball rather that going under the basket and score it. I would just shoot and make it in. I have been practicing shooting so that I could become good in basketball. I cannot dribble the basketball or do the lay-up thingy all I can do is shooting so I need to master that skill before I start another skill. I am also an easy boy that I usually go with the flow. and I also like to go with the flow or should i say that i follow the path of the wind. and the definition of malleable is "going with the flow, easy," so malleable describe me.
