Erica's Ideas

   Aldous Hexley is the  Arthur of the book called "Brave New World". There's a video about Hexley actually being interviewed about the book that he wrote "Brave New World" and I believe that we are now in 2019 we are living in the new brave world because in his interview he mentioned several thoughts like the cominos party, new devices, technology etc. So yes the breve new world con be now in 2019.    In 2019 there is so many going on letc look at a the  political party for example we have Donald Trump as president. Maybe not the best choice...right? but a perfect example of the new brave world. We have new devices every month let's look at the cell phone for example they are developing so much every month maybe every two mothers in your cell phone and there were are buy and being  addicted. Technology something that has developed so so much now we could talk to a friend's family's all around the world okay let's see them FaceTime all of the te...

    I bet there was a time where we all have sat down and see the "future" bright and better then our present. And yes I agree! I've I thought that a million times. And most of ourecorded future dependent on what chooses we make in the present. Based on my experience in feel like your future dose depende on you and your chooses in the present. For example if you choose to practice playing bsatquteball everyday because if the future you want to be a professional basketball player, you will have more change to succeed if you practice very day  instead of watching TV.

   Something you have to do and something you want to do? That's one of the thing that everyone thinks throughout life ... let's look at my life in high school for example. There are some class that I have to  take in oder to graduate and receive my diploma. And all though I don't want to take government I have to and there are some class that I want to take. Just because I want to become better at it dance class for example I want to take that class because I have fun doing I enjoy dancing and also I want to get better at it. But of course I don't have to take that class I just want to.    Now the life I have right now being a high school students is mostly doing what am I told. But what will happen after graduation? Now I have a busy life and responsibilities. Getting to class on time doing all my class work and homework... I'm thinking of starting a job after graduation. I want to be a translater since I'm bilingual. But I know I can't conform with that ...

   One big question I was always curious about is "how do we dream, how is it possible and why?" There is so much to this topic.    In school we divide life into subjects, we have a math class, science, biology and so on. And in live evrthing goes together, for example my big question have "biology, psychology, literature ..." and many more.     It has biology because in biology we learn about the body and that has to do with how we sleep... Psychology because of our brain and the way we think... Literature because dreams sometimes  have to do with a story we read a song we hear and movies we see...

   Have you ever wonder, about how anythig you do in this wrold dosen't really matter? We are all goiong to end up dying, once the day come. After I finshied reading  The tragedy of Macbeth,  paly wietten by Willioms Shakespeare. I got that ieda of nothing we do  in this wrold. Shakespeare has a way a useing his words, there are many quotes that intuested me, but there was is one that i feel like i need to esplian, it was Macbeth's line in act v         " She should have died hereafter;  There would have been a time for such a word. To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow, Creeps in this petty pace from day to day To the last syllable of recorded time, And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more: it is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, ...

   Now I have finished "Macbeth". So the witches prediction did end up being true, first Macbeth became the thane of cawdor then lady Macbeth convenes him to kill the king so he can have the throne. So he end ups linking the king, then he remembers what the witches had say to Banquo. Once Macbeth realized that his crown will soon be taken alway from him he tried to do anything he can so that he will keep his crown. He odres these murders to murder Banquo and his son, the murders attack and where able to kill Banquo but Mucduff Banquo's son runs of and survives. And then there was a point where Macbeth looses it and stars to see Banquo's ghost. At the end lady Macbeth ends up killing her self. And Mucduff kills Macbeth, and to please the kingdom he show them Macbeth's head. "Re-enter MACDUFF, with MACBETH's head MACDUFF Hail, king! for so thou art: behold, where stands The usurper's cursed head: the time is free: I see thee compass'd with thy kin...

  It seems like every great work of literature has at least one main idea that readers take away.  In Macbeth, there is this line that makes me think that, that is the main idea  " She should have died hereafter; There w ou ld have been a time for such a wor d . To-morrow, and to-morr o w, and to-morrow, Creeps i n  this petty pace from day to day To the last syllable of recorded time, And all our yesterdays have ligh t ed fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor  play er That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more: it is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fur y , Signifying nothing." From what I understand that means WHAT WE DO IN THIS WORLD DOSEN'T MATTER, NO MATTER WHAT WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIE.

  Reading "Macbeth" a play by William Shakespeare, say same things that's sometimes are hard to understand.  Here are same examples : 1.       Banquo says: Thou hast it now—King, Cawdor, Glamis, all/ As the weird women promised, and I fear/ Thou played’st most foully, for’t.     Literal Interpretation: You have been them all now-King, Cawdor, Glamis; just like the witches had said and I'm afraid that you've achieved them all through foul ways, have you not.     How I understand:  everything that that witches said to you had become true why do I have the feeling that you did something dirty. 2.       Macbeth says: They hailed him father to a line of kings./ Upon my head they placed a fruitless crown/ And put a barren scepter in my grip.    Literal Interpretation: They had said Duncan would be a great father to a line of kings Yet now they place a crown upon my undeserving head and a plain...

   Here are some notes I took on Macbeth's act II. Macbeth actually murders the king. I become king then there is a moment were he begins to think about Banquo, since after the predictions the witches made to Macbeth became ture then so must the prediction they made to Banquo. Since Macbeth don't want to lose his crown he orders tow murders to murder Banquo and his son, they actually do murder Banquo but his son manage tell escape.

  We make so many decisions every single day, sometimes we don't really think as much about the decisions we make. But there are same times when we have to think, think really good about what decision we make. Why? Because there's always an aportunty cost, we sacrifice and give up something when we make a decision. My best tips when it comes to making a decision are Don't make any decision fast Don't make decisions when really happy, sad or mad Always do what YOU think is best Don't do anything that will make you miserable later on  

  Here are some notes that I took from Macbeth.   First the characters are: Macbeth the solder who fights to protect the kingdom . Lady Macbeth   Macbeth's   wife, she's evil. Banquo Macbeth's partner at the battle field and also a really good friend to Macbeth. Duncan the king Malcolm & Donalbain the king's sons  I feel like those are the important characters.   I also have same frase from Macbeth "Fair is foul, and foul is fair." "Come what, come may time and hours runs through the roughest day." "False face most hide, what the false heart doth know."

   I feel guilty about something I did about 4 years ago.    It was in Mexico I was in 8th grade, and my school had to go to Mezones to compit against other school in sports, so we went and on day 2 at in the evening there was a dance, there was this girl who wanted to go, but one one was aloud to go because the teachers said that we weren't going. So this girl wanted escape and go, but she didn't want to go alone. She told me and my friends to go with her, we told the teachers that we were going to go buy food so they let us out just about when we were getting close to the store the girl told us to run so we can go to the dance, just when we were about to one of my friend told me to not because we were going to get in treble, so I obviously didn't want to get in treble, but I also didn't want to lave that other girl alone, so I told my other my other friend to go with her, at first she didn't want to ether but she did end up going because I told her, so they did g...

  I believe in that going to school is something really important in a person's  life. I belive that because I was told that at School we learn what we don't know. That in school there are these people who have knowledge and are willing to share it with others. Ever since I was little that's what they told me. And yes I belive it because it's been proven to truth.
