Failing to Plan is Plan to Fail
Faber and Montag are planning to make copies of the books.I feel like their plan is to make copies from the books so the can give Beatty the copies and they can burn those instead of the real ones. Like this Montag is going to have a chance to read the books and finally get to understand them fully like he wanted to, to get a meaning from them. But more understand why a women decided to put her house on fire and died with her books.

Is it just the Work
For me Montag is doing the right thing, because he is deciding to don't follow the crowd like the other. He is finally starting to stand up for what is unknown to him and is staring to comprehend it. I believe that no one should do something that hurts others. At least is something I wouldn't do only if its really necessary and its helping both of us. I wouldn't like to hurt someone by hurting something he or she loves just because its my work and I need to do it. After all is not just the work that matters there's many other important things in life than just work where we are hurting others.

My Semester Goal
Before the semester is done I'm trying to finish all my late work from other classes or anything that I'm missing. For this class I want to finish reading f451 and learn more about the book. I'm looking forward into having an A at the end of the semester because honestly this class is not hard it's basically more on how we work on things and get them done. To achieve my goal I'm planning on not getting behind in my assignments and finish everything on time and give my best effort on everything.

Questions 21-31
21. Activities that were practiced by youth in f451 was nothing more but the use of technology. Like in school books became less popular and people stopped using them. So technology became a bigger role in the lives of the youth. Its having a great impact in the culture because the youth its becoming more dependent on technology, which is making them lazy.
22. The firefighters are burning books instead of putting off fires, since the community is caring less about books they are doing nothing but burn them.
23. The irony of the text is that the firefighters are burning books, which is something strange.
24. The woman wanted to die with her books when she put her house on fire. The woman loved her books they were special to her so she didn't wanted the firefighters to burn them because she would feel a sense of betray towards it.
25. the effect of the comparison of books to birds is, that books are meaningful to many people, they transmit many emotions through their pages and can make imagen many things that in real life isn't real and give u a time of peace, and burning them is like killing a bird.
26. The crime that Montag commits is to start reading books instead of burning them, he finally understands that books are meaningful and have a purpose in life.

F451 and Me
Three things about F451 that I can relate to my life is stress, happiness, and technology. We all have this three things in this times 2018. Me as well as the others I have this three things in my life. I am really impressed mostly by how technology has impacted everyone's life and how it has turn into a big deal in our lives.
For example happiness should be a very important thing in our lives if we can't be happy nothing around us is positive. We can't spread positivity around us is because there's something going on in our lives. We can see the beauty of someone's heart through a smile, their happiness, the purity of the stare of their eyes. when someone is unhappy we cant appreciate any of this things. For example in my live I've had my ups and downs with people but I don't let that take my happiness away, I always try to be positive and don't let anything bring me down.
When my dad passed away depression took a big role in my life. There was times that I wouldn't get out of my room and didn't feel like doing anything. Honestly it took me a lot of work and metal strength to get out of it. But after all it was word the effort because now I can say that I'm a more stronger person that what I was before. A lot of people suffer from depression because they feel alone and that no one cares about them.
Technology, has not just impacted my life but of others too. Today 2018 there's so many new technology advancements, that have been beneficial to the world and human lives. But also theirs been downs of it people have become so addicted to it that there has been less communication between families and friends.

The Right to Read
Should we really outlaw reading? No reading shouldn't be outlawed just because someone doesn't likes reading who can call ignorant, because reading has many benefits for everyone. For example, reading is way for many people to spend their free time or take their stress away. Reading is very good for the brain since it helps you develop more vocabulary, and understanding. Also their's people on our world who are blind and def, who are only able to go and identify things by Brialle which is a system of dots that are used by blind people. Reading has so many beneficial things to this world we can learn so much out of it that if it where to be outlawed it would be tragic to the world.
F451 Summary part 1
What we've read so far from the book F451 is that basically Montag is the one of the main characters who is married to a woman named Millie, who don't have a happy love life. One day Montag meets this girl named Clarisse. Montag is a firefighter who instead of putting off fires he puts them on. So far what we know so far is that Clarisse is a very happy girl who has a great impact in Montag's life. The name Fahrenheit 451 is the tittle of the book because that's the temperature on which books burn at.
The relationship between Montag and his wife Millie, is not great we can say that is horrible. They as a couple have very little communication or we can say that they don't have any. his wife Millie always has earphones on and is always watching tv rather than sitting down to talk to her husband. Montag describes his home as a tomb because its cold and dark and you can't feel any type of vive in there.
In the other hand Clarisse is a very happy girl who likes to communicate with others. Out of the whole block on where she lives her family is the only ones who have lights turned on during the nights on the living room where they sit to talk and spend time together. When Montag meets her he finds her weird since she is very happy, but little did he know that she was going to have a great impact in his life. She made him think about how unhappy his life is and how he is not even happy with himself.

Breaking the Law
It’s wrong to break the law when you know that the action your doing it’s wrong ,but you still decide to do it. That would be a wrong thing to do because for a reason there’s laws to stop us from doing wrong actions that might affect others. There’s times when it’s right to break the law when there’s something unfair going on that we know it’s not wrong like the law sees it.

Story of my Life
One day I was walking with my friends to our house, when out of nowhere this guy runs across us and we just heard the security outside of gate scream to us to come back in because there was a guy running away from the police. We ran back and we saw how the police arrested the guy who had a pocket knife in possession. At this point I was really tripping out because the guy literally passed in front of me and I know he could of done something or grab someone to use as his defense. It was weird how this just happened in a matter of seconds on a normal day, were I'm normally doing the same things, like walking home with my friends.

Quotes
The quote “ rather than love, than money , than fame, give me truth” for me this quote mean that before any other those things I rather have truth. I wouldn’t like someone coming to me and lying to me saying they love and care when they really don’t and all they trying to do is make me think they care just for me to be there for them. This quote for me falls into society.
Another quote is “ the price of anything is the amount of life you exchange for it” this quote takes a important role for me since I’ve been through an experience that thaught me many things. For example we shouldn’t always try to do everything to try to be good with someone if that someone is not putting the same amount of effort to be with you. This quote also for me falls into society.
This quote “is not what you look at that matters, it's what you see.”Badicaly this quote means that the way someone dresses or looks like it’s what defines them as a person, because someone can look like a bad person Thad always doing bad things but once you get to know that’s when you see what that person truly is. This quote also falls into society.

What’s next for me ?
Through out this course what I’ve learned so far is that we all have a very important role in life that no one should be trying to quiet us. For example, we read an essay called Self-reliance which basically talks about how no one has the right to pick our future but ourselves. Also, no one becomes what others tells me them to be, because in real life no one knows exactly what the other person is going to be. Like honestly not even we know how our future is going to be it’s all going to depend on how we decide to make our way through life. What’s next for me in life is try to reach all my goals and dreams and don’t let anyoone stop from accomplishing them.Also I, need to get myself to start posting more on my blog!!

Emerson’s Essay
What Emerson’s essay tried to inform us by the way the thesis and the tittle “Self-reliance” was stated is that we all as humans have the freedom to decide for ours elves and it’s not anyone’s else’s choice to decide for any other individuals future.
Through out the essay Emerson’s presented to us in many ways how sometimes people let others influce them at the time of trying to speak up or making a decision. He well said how some people just go with what others say. For example , if someone is being bullied and you are aware of it, he states how easy someone can stay quiet and follow the crowd instead of speaking up for what it’s right. He explained to us how easy it is just to let things go just because someone else said so, instead of gaining bravery and speaking up for yourself.
What I understood about the essay is that beasically we were all born with our distinct characteristics and freedom of rights. A lot, of people have a low self esteem and and don’t do much about themselves. In some cases people that are not okay with themselves let others decide and tell them what to do even if he or she doesn’t like it and doesn’t agree. At the end of the day all they are trying to do is be acceptable to others even if that means you being unhappy with whatever is it that you are doing with your life. Like Emerson’s said this is not right no one can decide for ourselves we all have the freedom of being and doing whatever makes us happy and it doesn’t necessarily means that we are always going to agree and have the same beliefs or opinions as others.
A quote that he gave us that basically represent how life goes is “ most men gamble with her, and gain all, and lose all, as her wheel rolls”. What’s this quote means for me is that basically no one is born with their future already made for themselves. We as humans have to work hard for our future and make our way through life with life with our own beliefs and perspectives.We all select our own future it depends in us if that desperately waited future I’d going to be good or bad.It’s all going to depend on us on how we decide to make our way through life and not in what others tell u that you that your future is going to be.
All in all, we all came into a conclusion that no matter how hard it gets through life we shouldn’t let others decide for our lives. Honestly we shouldn’t let other have the hang of our life because that’s why it’s called “ our life” everyone can decide for themselves and not let others influence them. Clearly the whole point of Emerson writing the essay is to inform anyone reading it that no one can decide our future but our own very self.

Compare and Contarst Essay
In the story of “Young Woodman Brown” we all know that at some point of the story he was dreaming everything he was experiencing. Also in the poem of “ A Dream within a Dream” it talked about how everything they see or do was a dream. I’ll be explaining some similarities and differences. Well we all know that not every story has the same author tone or wording, but there’s times where the stories come into a similarity with a frase or action that a character do ,that takes you back to a previous story that we’ve read before. Honestly, I was surprised by how both the story and the poem have similarities but also their differences.
For example, in the story of “Young Woodman Brown” by Hawthrone’s it talked about how it’s main character Brown, experienced many weird and surprising things through out the story based on a dream he had when he fell to sleep in the forest. In this story the author was really good at explaining to us with details everything about the dream he had. The author told us how Brown came across a man in the woods who we all know was the devil, since he was an evil man. Brown got fooled by the man and ended up losing his faith. There’s many more things through out the story that the author was really good at explaining with details that was all a dream. A part that surprised me was when Young woodman woke up, and he was already old with children and grandchildren. At the end of the story he dies and that’s when we knew that everything that happened in the story was nothing more than just a dream.
In addition to the poem “ A Dream within a Dream” it also talks about how everything that was happening was nothing more than just a dream. Everything that the person sees or experiences is just a Dream. When I read the poem it caught my attention on how good the author did at explaining everything that was going on in a just something that’s was based on just a Dream. For example in this part “In a visón, or in none, Is it therefore the less gone? All that we see or seem Is but a Dream within a Dream” it explained how everything was based on a Dream.
In a way the tone was something that both the story and the poem had different. In Young Woodman’s the tone of the story was mysterious and curious. Since the author did really good at explaining the things that were going on in the story that left us hanging on parts wanting to know what was going to happen next. In comparison to the poem the author talked things calmly. Through out the poem he was just explaining us how it was all a Dream.
Overall, both the story and the poem had its similarities and differences, which are good because imagen everything being the same in tones, expression, this world would be boring and there wouldn’t be anything interesting to learn about or read. In my opinion I really liked how both authors were really good at explaining every line to us.
For example, in the story of “Young Woodman Brown” by Hawthrone’s it talked about how it’s main character Brown, experienced many weird and surprising things through out the story based on a dream he had when he fell to sleep in the forest. In this story the author was really good at explaining to us with details everything about the dream he had. The author told us how Brown came across a man in the woods who we all know was the devil, since he was an evil man. Brown got fooled by the man and ended up losing his faith. There’s many more things through out the story that the author was really good at explaining with details that was all a dream. A part that surprised me was when Young woodman woke up, and he was already old with children and grandchildren. At the end of the story he dies and that’s when we knew that everything that happened in the story was nothing more than just a dream.
In addition to the poem “ A Dream within a Dream” it also talks about how everything that was happening was nothing more than just a dream. Everything that the person sees or experiences is just a Dream. When I read the poem it caught my attention on how good the author did at explaining everything that was going on in a just something that’s was based on just a Dream. For example in this part “In a visón, or in none, Is it therefore the less gone? All that we see or seem Is but a Dream within a Dream” it explained how everything was based on a Dream.
In a way the tone was something that both the story and the poem had different. In Young Woodman’s the tone of the story was mysterious and curious. Since the author did really good at explaining the things that were going on in the story that left us hanging on parts wanting to know what was going to happen next. In comparison to the poem the author talked things calmly. Through out the poem he was just explaining us how it was all a Dream.
Overall, both the story and the poem had its similarities and differences, which are good because imagen everything being the same in tones, expression, this world would be boring and there wouldn’t be anything interesting to learn about or read. In my opinion I really liked how both authors were really good at explaining every line to us.

Young Woodman Brown Response
In my opinion towards the story is that for me the fact of the women from the community where young woodman lived were very cruel and ambitious. The fact of the women killing their husbands just to stay with the money is repulsive. Also, they would kill their babies and burry them in their backyards. This really got me surprised because I don’t understand why someone would kill someone they “love” for money. That’s something ugly and bad.

GSD
The way I get things done is by reminding myself constantly that I have stuff to get done. For example I use my phone and write myself notes about them. At times I also tell my friends that I have stuff to get done and for just in case I forget for an instant I have them remind me. Most of the time I get my stuff done by myself without having anyone bugging me about it.
Earth’s on Turtles Back
In the story Earth’s on Turtles Back, it was basically about how earth was formed. Basically the story explained to us how earth was created. In the story there was a girl who had a dream about and uprooted tree whom roots couldn’t be pulled out. In the story the tree made a hole and the woman fell down through it and under that hole there was water and other animals. When they saw the woman falling they tried everything to bring the earth up so the woman can land. The turtle helped her bring her back to earth by planting seeds and growing trees and basically from there earth began.
Rights to your opinion
Everyone in this life has their own opinions towards everything. For example, there’s times where we al agree on a same opinion and we share it out, but there’s times in where we all have different opinions from everyone else and end up not sharing it out. We stay quiet at times because we are scared of giving our own opinion and people disagreeing about it.

Was it only a dream?
In my opinion I don’t think the whole story was a dream. Because, if it would of been a dream then young woodman wouldn’t be of had woke up still in the forest. For example when young woodman went into the forest he came across this old man who for my opinion wasn’t someone good but the devil instead. Also, he fell to sleep on the forest and had a dream a wild dream of a witch meeting. When young woodman woke up he was still in the forest. He might of had an hallucination which is compared to dream but it’s not. So in my opinion I don’t think it was dream.

Young Woodman Brown Q&A
1.I think that the purpose for Hawthorne’s for writing the this story is to let his readers know that faith is something we all have, and to show is how it’s so easy to lose our faith.
2.Yes I think that Brown’s wife Faith actually fits her name because she tried stopping him from leaving because she had a feeling that something bad was going to happen. Brown didn’t have any faith in her since he left the his house and didn’t listen to her.
3. The pink ribbons signify faith, to keep remembering him to don’t lose it through out his way.
4.What young woodman witnessed was an eviel dream “ it was dream of eviel only for young woodman brown”
5.The old man is the devil. He found his way out to get young woodman to trust him by acting all nice to him at the beginning and then when he saw that he had young woodman’s trust then he made him lose his faith.
6.I think the staff represents the demon. I know this because the old man leads brown onward or is the primary motivator Brown’s own mind.
7.His life would of been different backside he could of had listened to his wife and the people around him to earned him not to leave. But he eventually left and he lost his faith.

The Conscience Hacker
The author of “Conscious of a hacker” wanted us to understand through his writing that we as humans we all have our own unique characteristics and flaws. We as humans have our own unique likes towards everything. For example imagen a world full of people who are similar in every way it would be so boring and nothing fun to learn from.
He became a hacker in school. One day he found a computer and liked how it worked.”I’ve made a discovery today. I found caputer.Wait a second,this is cool. It does what I want it to do. If it makes a mistake,it’s because I screwed up. Not because it doesn’t like me.. or feels threatened by me.. or thinks I’m a smart ass.. or doesn’t like teaching and shouldn’t be here. Damn kid. All he does is plays video games. The are alike.”(paragraph 4).Basically we all as humans don’t have the same interests towards many things, yes we might share the same ideas or opinions towards a topic or something else but not always we are going to agree on everything. Not because someone thinks or says something towards a topic should get judged by others because we all have the right to have our own opinion and expression.

Yes, I’m a criminal. My crime is that of curiosity. My crime is that of judging people by what they say or think, not what they look like. My crime is that of outsmarting you, something you will never forgive me for. I’m a hacker and this is my manifesto. (Paragraph 9&10).We as humans make mistakes but it’s human to forgive and give out second chances. Just not because someone did something wrong the first time it doesn’t means that they are going to keep doing it. We can all change into a better well being and try to do better in life. Negative comments or judgement should never take the lead in our lives we should all ignore that negativity and use it as motivation. Sometimes those negative comments we receive from others becomes our strengths to look forward and prove everyone who doubted us wrong. So if u really like how you are doing your life then keep doing it as long as it makes you happy and it’s the right choices that later on won’t bring u down in life.

Response to “Richard Cory”
In my opinion I say that Richard Cory probably killed himseld because even though he was good in everything he did that people even wished to be in his place, he still wasn’t happy with his life. He had money and intelligence but he was probably missing the most iportant thing a human needs which is “love”. We can have all the money in the world but it’s not going to buy us happiness. All in all, I think that Richard Cory needed love to be completely happy but he didn’t had it, so therefore he decided to end his life.

I didnt know anything about The Socratic Method until I read about it and came to a conclusion that’s basically a way of learning in which we develop our thinking skills.
