Atticus—On Courage

I think courage could be many different kinds of things. Rescuing someone from a building is different from standing up for someone but they both take courage. I feel that Mrs. Dubois was a brave woman for fighting to get off of morphine she knew it was going to be hard but it would be the right thing to do. She didn’t have to quit but she would rather take the pain she was in instead of taking the medication. Some people thought she was just a mean old lady not putting themselves in her position and thinking about the hardships she’s faced. Some people think I was courageous by standing up for Tom Robinson, others thought I was crazy for taking the case even though I was going to lose, but it wasn’t about me I felt it was the right thing and that everyone should know the truth about what went on in that house that day that they were putting the wrong man in jail.  I am also setting the example for my children that they too must stand up for what’s right.

On Racism—Atticus

People keep referring to me as a nigger lover, it doesn’t bother me much but I can see that it’s hurting Scout. I know that she getting picked on at school about me helping a negro out but I hope she understands that I’m doing it so I can feel good with myself. I hope that she doesn’t fight the next time someone calls me that it’s my choice. She doesn’t know what that means yet but its just a word people like us use to be mean. She’s a smart kid and she should make the right choice when someone says something mean. She will understand what I’m saying later on in her life when she’s older. I don’t like people calling me a nigger lover but I will take it because I know what I’m doing is the right thing to do and I am glad there are some people behind me and support me fully.

I thought knew a lot about computers before entering this class. I was wrong I’ve learned so much in this class about computers though. Iv’e created my on website wihich I had so much fun with. Iv’e had fun with each activity it gives me time to turn in my assignments I can do inside or outside of class. The daily grammar helps me expand my vocabulary. Its been fun and easy with computers . The new things we have learned aren’t that hard either. In addition to using computers i dont get tired of writing and my hand doesn’t hurt. It’s easier to type than to write. All of the new things we learn on computer are easy to catch on to. I feel i get done with my work quicker by typing everyting out. I also have all of my materials when using the computer i dont have to worry about bringing a pen or pencil.

I am from Meridan, Mississippi but I visit Maycomb, Alabama every summer during that period of time I stay with my aunt everyone knows her as Miss Rachel. My family is originally from Maycomb County but my mom worked for a photographer in Meridan who had entered his photo in a beautiful child contest and won 5 dollars. She gave the money to me and I went to the picture show 20 times with it I saw Dracula it was great. Although I go to the picture show often I am still poor. I get clothes and shoes but I am just a little more fortunate than the others financially wise but I am still poor. I really don’t care about being poor its just that I don’t know who my father is I know nothing ‘bout him. I make up stories about him so my friends think I do have one but I am not that convincing to them though. I think they know that I know nothing about him.

The First Day of School

On the first day of school I thought Mr. Bass told us that we would be working on computers a lot and that we would even be setting up our own webpage. I thought that was cool working on computers but I thought we would be doing a lot of hard work in this class. It has been very easy though even setting up the webpage. I knew I was going to like this class but I like it more than I thought I would its a lot of fun being in here. My expectations of this class have exceeded the level of fun I thought it would be. The tests are easy as long as you study for them and the stories we read were exciting and short. There is a good vibe in this classroom and I enjoy it. Also doing my homework on computer makes it easier for me to turn it in to you because as long as I save it I wont lose it. If the rest of the semester is like it is now I will have a good grade in here and a lot of fun doing it.
