The other reason is that this relates to freedom by getting free from the Tripods. I think, when you get Capped, the Tripods will recognize you. But if the Tripods say they didn't get Capped, they have to be capped. So, being Capped at the first will give you more freedom. Even though if you never got Capped for the rest of the life. But you will be treated as a little kid so you have to hide yourself when you're going somewhere outside. If not, you could get Capped or perhaps die from the Tripods for not going to get Capped for the life.

Literature Circles 4 Blog
The quote describes theme and freedom. In which way? It describes that only if you get Capped, you will be treated as adults. This describes as freedom because if you are 35 years old and haven't been Capped yet, the people will treat them as kids. So, being Capped means freedom in the future. But I think this should be over because in Korea, every men has to go to the army. If not they still have to go in the future. But the thing is, I really don't want to go to the army.

Literature Circle No.3 (Chapter 6 The Castle of the Red Tower)
1. How were the Tripods able to control the people?
Answer: The Tripods were able to control all the people by capping one by one and the Tripods were very strong because they have many Tripods so the humans can't do anything about it. So, then the Tripods were like the king or rulers or Earth.
2. Find evidence (quotations from the novel) to show that even though Will is comfortable living
at the castle, he is frustrated that the Comte, Comtesse, and Eloise have been capped.
Answer: "more and more I had come to see the capped as lacking what seemed to me the essence of humanity, the vital spark of defiance against the rulers of the world. And I had despised them for it-despised even, for all their kindness to me and their goodness, the Comte and Comtesse." This shows that they are capped by the Tripods.
3. Find evidence (quotes) to show how Will feels about being capped.
Answer: "Will is against being capped and feels that capped persons are slaves to the tripods." Will feels that he is going to be a slave of Tripods. As showed in the book, all the people who have been capped by the Tripods shall be their servants.

Pharaoh iMovie Reflection
I and Shivank were partner. As we were working on our project, we first when to Google. Then, we typed in King Tutankhamun facts for kids. Then, we pressed the first one. There were some good facts. We put it in our fact writer.
As we gathered our whole facts, we put the scripts. We thought the script was very long and thought that we will do very good.
Then, we went to iMovie. We put pictures first because you have to drag media to record it. As we recorded our voices, it was only 1:20 seconds. The teacher actually said that your iMovie has to be for about 3 minutes to 4 minutes. Then, we had to film about tutankhamun. It was about Shivank (Tutankhamun) being the king and lastly Shivank (Tutankhamun) getting assassinated by me (Murderer). Then it became roughly about 3 minutes. As we finished, we were saved.

City Connection Reflection
I did well on my historical factors. At first, I had trouble on my homework especially on historical factors. So, I went to my academy which helps on homework, English and math and got some help. But our math teacher didn't know what historical factor was too. He was thinking but suddenly he told me what it is about. He told me to go to the Seoul's official website and find some information about historical factors.
I would improve my project by doing the project on that day our teacher gave us. Usually, i play on the day the teacher gave us the project and I do my project on the last day we have to do. Like now, I'm doing this in the library and today's the last day. Then, that's the time I get sleepy the next day and I happen to rush the project. After I finish, I should double check my work. When I happen to do my project on the night, I get sleepy and I am too lazy to double check my work.

Learning Profile
I learn best when I use technology. I love technology. If I use pencil and paper, it would hurt my had and it will give me many spelling mistakes. But for technology, my hands are comfortable to just type and the computer will just check the spelling mistakes.
I need no distractions when I'm studying. I get distracted really well. Even if it is a small thing. One day when I got a PSP, I just thought of my PSP. I couldn't concentrate on my class well. When Manchester United plays soccer, and if I couldn't watch the game because it's too late, I go on the school computer and see the results. For the PSP, I can change it by bringing the PSP everywhere I go so that I can see my PSP and I won't get distracted. For soccer, I can change it by just looking at the results in the morning.
The strategies that would help me in my learning is to listen to music while studying. One of my new year resolution was to just concentrate in one thing. But, when I try it, it makes me bored and sleepy without entertainment. So, when I am doing my homework, I need some entertainment so that I can get good grades. So, sometimes if my mom tells me not to listen to music, I get annoyed a lot because music is my favorite entertain in everywhere. But then I just stop because it feels like she will take the speaker away. So, I asked my mom to buy me a laptop but she says now is not the time to own a laptop.
I would like my teacher to know that I don't care about sleeping. Even if it is school days, I just watch things that I like on the television. For example I really like this team called Manchester United in soccer and when it's their game, I just quickly do my homework and go on the sofa and watch the whole game. Sometimes I may get bored of it and sleep but I really don't care about sleeping. The other thing that I want to let my teacher is that when I usually wake up in the morning, it feels like something is in my eyes. So, I take out the things in my eyes. But, after about 1 period it gets back to normal. Many teachers asked me whether if I am sleepy when I am actually not sleepy.

Introducing Myself
Happy New Year! This is now 2011. What does people usually do when it is 2011? They say wishes. I have wishes too! I'm going to share it in this blogpost.
My 2 resolutions and goals are going to church every week and get my grades up. For the first reason of going to church every week, I usually do not go to church every week when I'm supposed to. I usually get disturbed by food, games and playing. I think I should go to church everyday from now on so that I will get good luck from my God. For my second resolutions, I want to get my grades up. Usually I don't try my best for assignments so that's why I get bad grades. But I am doing my best for this blogpost and I hope I'll get a good grade so that I can get my grades up. The second reason is that, if my mom say I get all A's for my grade, she will buy me an iPhone. I wanted an iPhone so badly that I almost sing around about iPhone.
One talent I am good at is playing soccer. People told me I'm really bad at midfields and strikers because my stamina is very poor. Because of that, I started playing goalkeeper. One of my friends was good at midfield but also good at goalkeeper. Then, he started to teach me how to play goalkeeper. As he was teaching me about 3 years ago, now I'm quite good. My friend taught me how to dive and catch the ball. Because of my friend, in the soccer tournament which happened in about October 2010, I only got one goal scored out of 5 games. But with bad luck, I got to the B team. Now, I hope I will go to the Phuket team which gets to travel to Phuket and play soccer.
So, These are the things that I dream for and talents. I like to play soccer and would like to be a goalkeeper when I grow up but my parents disagree with the idea. At first, I thought my parents were saying no because I was bad at goalkeeper. But then, as time went, I had a chance to show me parents how good I am. I played really well and my mom said I did very good. But then, I suddenly realized that my parent disagrees because of me. They are worried about my face appearence because you have to play in the sun. I'm still getting a dream of playing goalkeeper in the future and I will never give up.
