COMING OF AGE QUESTION AND ANSWER!

9. What does it mean to grow up? In what ways are and aren’t you grown up? What are your feelings about this?

  Growing up means paying bills and rent. Finally have this fake sense of maturity. Where you think you have or at least acknowledged. This level of maturity. When in all reality you haven’t changed what so ever. Your still a kid inside. Same interest, you just have to be more independent. Live by yourself for a while after graduating college. Making another family to be with for the rest of your days. If things go well.  

I feel I have grown by having a more independent side. As well as by changing my state of mentality. To having to deal things with a more leveled head. And have full consciousness of whatever I decide to do. Always having the precise amount of responsibility put to action. The ways I haven’t changed are even though I have this independent mentality. I always go back to my parents for advise as well as my sister. I know i’m going to be here longer than any of them. I figure while there here to use there wisdom.

I’m actually feeling mixed emotion emotions torwards this. the norm of being an adult is pretending everything is okay. Of course most the time things are put it’s just. In reality then again what is. I want to grow up half the time. Pretend everything is find. I also find adults settle for things. I’m not sure if i want that, You know how parents say enjoy your youth. Well they obviously think it’d be best. Maybe it’s just a phase every human goes to. Although I still want to be a kid for as long as possible.

14. What are some questions and concerns you have about growing up and adulthood?

My main concern is what will life be like. What could possibly be the difference.  I mean think of it this way. The next day your officially an adult. Yet you still feel the same. Of course once the pressure, of seeing if your well enough to settle by yourself. There’s not much to it.  I guess everyone has to go through that awkward stage adapting. 

I would like to know what it i like to be an adult as much as I fear it. What’s it like to be no longer considered a child? What’s it like being able to truly settle? What’s it like to know what you want in your life? I’d like to know what I’m going to do with my life. I just don’t no what I’m going to do yet.

I mean hearing from my peers. It’s just really focusing on what fits right in your life. For example I have been watching the vampire slayer. From what I’ve seen is that the watcher. The person who helps Buffy (Vampire Slayer) find out what she’s facing. Giles the watcher is also a librarian. It’s mazing how if fits like a puzzle piece. That’s what I want my life to be like. In other words that what everyone’s life is like. Everyone has a puzzle to solve. put in all the pieces together and you have got yourself a convenient life.

Romeo and Juliet #2

Besides family grudges, there are  other reasons that separate two young lovers from being together. Romeo and Juliet, by William Shakespeare is a roller coaster. The story is brought up as a love tragedy due to  parental issues with one another.  In fact there is much depth into the story such as responsibility, society, and other peoples inputs.

There is a lot of responsibility to put to the question in relationships. Even in Romeo and Juliet, they  are accountable for trying to not get caught and meeting up. Just like in our era if people were to meet up secretly they'd have to do the same things. I feel it's the same there has always been this specified liberty. On the other hand all the responsibility is not held up upon them but the people who accompany them throughout the relationship.

The society they live in (Verona, Italy) is very crucial. Just because of the family empowerment and reputation at risk. They were willing to risk lovers. In fact they lost two members due to their ignorance to overcome what the society has to think. Romeo and Juliet are not the only ones that have to confront these difficulties. Many couples around the world. Have their families reputation over all.

Other relationships manage to separate lovers. Such as Paris, he intends in marrying Juliet. Paris's well intended words: "Happily met, my lady and my new wife."(4.1) He vows to love her yet Juliet has already selected a love. Arranged marriages happen in our time period as well. Love stories as these aren't intended. Paris is viewed as a great partner due to his reputation but Juliet's happiness is not thought of. Juliet cares about the nurses opinion. For example, when the nurse says "I think you are happy in your second match, for it excels your first." She's torn by the fact that she would believe such a thing. Juliet had intentionally taken a step by saying she would. Friar Lawerence who attempts to intervene with Romeos relationship has realization that it's the best. Other opinion's matter but it is not exactly the way to go through things.  juliet in the end did push away other people's desires away.

Responsibilities, close friends, and other arrangements destroy the perfect momentums. Even smaller factors manage to ruin relationships. Such as around the world cultural differences impacts these relationships. Many things affect the outcome of a relationship. Forbidden love has all this obstacles, but if one really loves they will do all at there best. In reality love like this is difficult to find

Now a days these relationship still exist. Arranged marriages happen all the time. Although most people do not intend to get tangled up in this problems it happens.

Reponse

 The book that im currently reading is called "My Seventeenth Summer," by Maureen Daly. I found this book carries a cross many messages. The book is based on Angie, a girl of not may thoughts on high school relationships. It's the summer before her first year of college. She finds herself not having plans but then she meets Jack. Who she can't deny her attraction to. It is automatically the best summer of her. Although she constantly thinks about things in autumn. 

Angie is the perfect girls. She obey's her parents and never responds rudely. Compared to kids of our generations are the exact opposite. To me it was unfamiliar for the protagonist to be so respectful. Ideally protagonist have a bold personality to give the store some sort of flow. Although I did find it intriguing. She's the type of girl that will ask for permission, while people now will no longer care about permission.

Angie and Jack's relationship was cute and of course, she was nervous and second guessing everything.  Angie really is worried about fall since she's leaving for college. Due to her magical summer. The most important message is basically to let life flow.

Omnivores Dilema

The Omnivores Dilemma, by Michael Pollan. Was very similar in some concepts with Don't eat this book.  Anyway I found that this book lead your through quite a mental dilema. Through the discovery of what were actually eating.

In the central portion of the book four different meals and where all the ingredients originated from. The worst part  for me was the actual recognition of the industrial food system. Most people have an understanding or assumption that it is a "rather large farm." Mr. Pollan says "It's more like a series of factories that turn raw materials into food product. It's a giant food chain, that one supplies most of the food americans eat today." The real deal breaker for me was all the animal cruelty. The other section was based on "industrial organic food" this is food grownn own an enormous farm that could qualify as  a factory. Throught out the book Mr.Pollan leads onto various concepts of such.

What I enjoyed about his book is that he actually explored around the topic and was able to show relevant evidence. He was able to really dive into this topic and use personal experience they all vary. He also really expreses his opinion. As well as not holding back on irregular unspeakable topics.

Honestly I don't know why I read these type of book's. Every single time I end up completely astonished. As well as gives me more reasoning on how to select what i put into my body. Overall this book was fantastic.

Requiem

Lena's different, now since the pass books Lena has changed. "Requiem," by  Lauren Oliver is the end off the Delirium series.  Lena is not and will not be the innocent adolecent. Who did her best to stay out of trouble. Lena definitely has had an immense amount of character development. Lena was always doing what the law stated. She always followed never really opinionated. And she became courageous as well.

Lena became the unexpected. She always followed this outrageous deliria protocols. As everyone does, but she never thought there was anything but that world. As she did in book one. Now she even has two conflicted loves. One for Julian and another for Alex. Alex was her first love he brought her to the wilds. Everyone believed he sacrificed himself for her. Later on she moved on where she found Julian who was able to fill the blank in her heart. Now that Alex's is back she is full of this deliria.

Even though Hana and Lena were best friends. Usually Hana had the control of everything. Now Lena is in the wilds and has a say in whatever. She tells everyone what she thinks. Even when it comes to speaking to her loved ones she has a different tone. She believes in things through a different perspective. Event hough she came to the wilds for love she never imagined survival as such a hassle. 

Lena became so courageous even alex said it himself "The old Lena would have bolted." But she said it herself the wilds aren't a game. Lena had to grow up in order to survive. Love had a price and she's paying for it. But she's managing.  Sh thinks in the wilds you have to grow bigger, and stringer, and tougher.

Lena suffers from amor deliria. Love but she choose to and I respect that she ran into the wilds. Becoming a different person behind whats left of Alex's Lena. This series had such ainteeresting plot that unfolded Lena's new being.
