Into The Forest

Nell writes, "I never knew how much we consumed. It seems as if we are all appetite, as if a human being is simply a bundle of needs to drain the world. It's no wonder there are wars, no wonder the earth and water and air are polluted. It's no wonder the economy collapsed, if Eva and I use so much merely to stay alive" (135).
This quote is relevant in today’s world because people all have needs, we are always wanting but not realizing what we need. We think we need something but in reality it’s just us wanting it. People will always want things even things that we do need, for example some people will do what ever for food. And in order for us to survive we need food our body needs food. But also knowing when it’s too much. Another thing that we need to survive is money; people are always wanting more money, not realizing that we are fight and killing each other for paper. Well back to the topic being human is wanting whether its happiness, love or a big family, it’s like our appetite always-craving new food. Nell in the end realizes that she didn’t need to take the book with her. The book was defiantly not what I expected, neither the ending. How did Nell and Eva go from having and want to having none.

Arizona Immigration Law

I am on both sides, I know that we are suppose to pick a side but they are both right in away. The law is trying a solve a problem it might not be the smartest choice but at least its bring awareness. It's not fair to the people who are a citizen who forgot there proof to be arrested, but it is also not fair for citizens to lose there jobs to immigrants. After all we are the ones paying the taxes. It not fair to the citizens who look foreign because they might have the cops constantly hassling them, like how Alessandra Soler Meetze said "If you look or sound foreign, you are going to be subjected to never-ending requests for police to confirm your identity and to confirm your citizenship." Hopefully something will be done and we can get to some type of agreement about this law.

law school's discrimination policy

I believe that clubs should be forced to follow anti-bias rules. Anyone should be allowed to join a club for whatever reason. But the question of should student groups have the right to restrict membership based on their beliefs, has me in the middle. Because everyone’s beliefs are different, who are we to say their beliefs are wrong. I don’t believe that anyone should be discriminated, especially for wanting to join a club. If the Christians are really bothered by having homosexual’s in their clubs then maybe they should make another club outside of school. But then again why would a homosexual want to join a Christian club, wouldn’t they feel out of place. I don’t see why the homosexual’s don’t start their own club; I know it doesn’t help with the decimation that is happening. But I would rather join a club and be comfortable the join a club where I am not wanted. (But that’s just me) a person’s sexuality background shouldn’t be the reason they aren’t allowed into a club. If they share the same interest and ideas as you why not let them join?

I expect people to lie to me, because we all have feelings, emotion, and personality it’s a part of being human. Also because I don’t know the situation, I don’t know the reason why they lied to me, it also depends how big and what kind of lie it was to get me upset. I don’t know what kind of world we would live in if we all didn’t lie, it probably wouldn’t be a pretty one, not like ours is in a great condition in the first place, but because lying to person isn’t always that big of a deal. It all depends on the person.

Corporations

I agree and disagree with the recent Supreme Court’s decision on Corporations. Because why should a group of individuals have the same rights as an individual. But we rely on corporations for employment, goods, economic growth, services, and more. By giving the corporation the same rights as an individual we may benefit from it. Also if corporations have more money than a person, which means that people won’t have any or much say in politics. We have freedom of speech, so why shouldn’t the corporations have it too? I also agree with what president obama called it “a major victory for big oil, Wall Street Banks, health insurance companies and the other powerful interests that marshal their power every Day in Washington to drown out the voices of everyday Americans.” I agree with this because it’s true most Americans won’t have a say anymore. The court is making it clear that the speech of corporations is bigger than that of individuals.

Lovey Want's

Lovey wants the impossible by wanting to be Shirley Temples, knowing that she can’t. But I think she hopes that one day she can be Shirley. It doesn’t do her good by wanting to be someone else. Maybe pretending to be someone else makes her life easier; I don’t really know how to explain it. Maybe Lovey thinks Shirley has the look of a classic American girl. Because Lovey is Japanese she feel like she won’t be accepted in America, that she has to look like Shirley. By wanting to be accepted she starts to lose her self, trying to be someone she is not. In the end she will only succeed in damaging herself.
