I feel very confident about the MacBook Airs for the rest of this year and next year. I think it’s going to affect my learning in a positive because I have a Mac at home and learning about Macs at school will improve my knowledge with both Macs. Also it will help by it being [...]

Many people believe in many different things, but I believe in speaking up. I have seen the results of speaking up during class, and have realized the importance of it. For example, once in grammar class the teacher asked “OK is every one clear on verbs?” and no one raised their hand or spoke up. [...]

Austin Brown (center) had attended-a dance party called Dayglow where blasts a fluorescent  rained down on crowds in downtown Austin. Black light made them shine. “If you weren’t dancing you where just standing there in paint,” Brown said. “That doesn’t sound like fun.” The hunt for novelty can grow awry when teens try to top [...]

          Everyone has wondered which is better, ballet or gymnastics? Well, it depends on what you like better, flips and tricks or turns and jumps.

I think it was really nice how the dad bought Koly how to read, and it was funny when Koly played those pranks. I think it’s sad how every one is still dweling over  Hari’s death. I’m anxious to see what will happen to Koly when Chandra gets married and leaves. It’s also sad how [...]

This chapter, to me was very sad. It was sad because Chandra couldn’t go on the journey, they passed by Koly’s old village and she knew that she probably would never see her parents or brothers again,when they went passed the other very sick people,and when Hari died. The only happy part was when Hari [...]

so far this book to me is pretty good. I think that Hari’s mother is very demanding and controling and i think that they shouldn’t take Hari to the Varanasi because he is ill and weak. I don’t think its fair that they took her for the money . I liked when koly told him [...]
