Classroom Diary

In class, we have seen an extract of the movie "Titanic".

The sinking of the Titanic is a sad story. It deals about love and tragedy.

In fact, the Titanic was a passenger liner designed by architect Thomas Andrews.

During the first (and last) journey, it collided a iceberg from Southampton, UK to New York City, US.

It runs April 15, 1912 at 2 h 20 off Newfoundland.

This event was one of the greatest maritime disasters.

It caused the deaths of 1,514 people.

The boat was equipped with sixteen watertight compartments used to protect the ship in case of waterways or significant damage.

However, after it sank, it turned out it was false.

It's a texte written by Gary SOTO. The name is "Home, Sweet home" in "living up the street". Gary was nine years old that summer.

Gary is a mexican. He asked his mother if they could have a turtle soup. She said "You are a Mexican. Where did you get the idea that people et turtles?". This was the summer where Gary spent the mornings in front of the television that showed there aren't rifts or beatings in the family. It was about Beaver Family: A white family. He lears a lot of things about Beaver's family. He appreciates much their lifestyle. Later, he goes with his little sister and he explains or he "tried to convince them that if we improved the way we might get along better in life. White peaple would like us more. They might invite us to places, like their homes or frond yards. They might not hate us so much". Misunderstood by his family, gary is so disappointed. His sister called him a "Craphead" and, she said "They'll never like us". It would ther a probleme between Mexican and American. These two different families have different lifestyle and this is felt throughout the text.

A freegan is "a person who buys as little as possible and makes use of recycled or discarded goods and materials, in an effort to reduce waste and limit environmental impact."

The document we whatched was a TV report on CBS news. It's was"Vegetarian dumpster diving". There was talking of an association who collect in garbage cans, packaged foods and edible to minimize and denounce waste.

Here are some slogans:

Everybody can have the freedom to cure himself

Consume consume, you will be crazy when you will be without money.

Run, run, the consumerism catches up with you.

The word life will be soon synonymous with barcodes.

Last english class was on this song. We have reconstituted the words, and we sang. It's was a nice class!

I’ve always known
Since I was a young boy
In this world, everything's as good as bad
Now my father told me always speak a true word
And I have to say that is the best advice I’ve had
Because something burns inside of me
It’s everything I long to be
And lies they only stop me from feeling free

Like a hobo from a broken home
Nothing's gonna stop me
Like a hobo from a broken home
Nothing's gonna stop me

I've never yearned for anybody’s fortune
The less I have the more I am a happy man
Now my mother told me always keep your head on
Because some may praise you just to get what they want

And I said mama I am not afraid
They will take what they will take
And what would life be like without a few mistakes

Like a hobo from a broken home
Nothing's gonna stop me
Like a hobo from a broken home
Nothing's gonna stop me

However, i love this song. I find it just beautiful. Lyrics, Melody. I like !

A caveman or troglodyte is a stock character based upon widespread concepts of the way in which early prehistoric humans may have looked and behaved. The term caveman, sometimes used colloquially to refer to Neanderthal people, originates out of assumptions about the association between early humans and caves, most clearly demonstrated in cave painting or bench models.

Ok, so... In this video, it is openly asserted that a Cavemen is lower than humans today. The motto is : It's so easy, a cavemen can do this. But... The cavemen isn't the happiest when he hears it.

The Cavemens are even used for pubs of VOLVIC ... Why that?

I dream to travel, discover new things, a new world, new land. I dream to live in America, England or somewhere else ... I love English. Really. However, my level is not very masterful. But I find language so beautiful. Also, my American family motivates me. I want to talk with my cousin and my aunt, without a language barrier. Since small, I dream o America.I want to live here may be... Soon I hope ... Of course, some are stronger than me in english. It's not a secret. But no matter. I would try to achieve my dreams all the way <3
