Part 4 with the Force

    Class this week was interesting, comparing Taoism to the Force from Star Wars. I'll admit it threw me for a loop at first, but then after reading more about Taoism they are alike. And of course of all the people in the world to come up with that comparision would be Mrs. Olson. I do love how she was able to come up with a connection like that thought. In Taoism, Tao means path or way and they say it is the force that controlled the earth. In Star Wars, Obi-Wan explains what the Force is to Luke and it's pretty much the same thing. I think that's the best way to sum up what Taoism is.

    This week for my independent reading this week I read from page 62 to page 82 so that's 20 pages. Which is six more than last time!! I'm so happy I was able to pull that off. Anyways in my book this week Frankenstein got a letter from his love. Then him and his friend hang out and looked some languages. Frankenstein planned to go home, but the weather pushed back the date. He receives a letter from his father saying his younger brother has been murdered so he races home, finds his monster and knows he did it, but another has been arrested.


     I think the monster did it as well, because to me it seems like that's where the story would go. And the person who they arrested is a girl, a little girl. I really doubt a little girl could strangle a little boy. Now the reading is getting a little easier, but it's still confusing. To top it all off now they are using bigger words than before. If it gets any worse it will be to the point when I have to have a dictionary beside me as I read it. Now the question is will the monster kill again or will his maker get to him first? I can't wait to see what happens next and see if the monster will go after his maker's love.
