Strangers

I think the strangers are very interesting book so far, I don't understand why he treats his mother the way he does. It doesn't seem as though they have a strong connection or maybe something happen to when he was a child? The fact that he shows no emotion I think he is showing emotion even though it doesn't show, deep down inside him I think he feels something. When he went to his mother funeral he wasn’t paying any mind to his mother death but his surrounding. But after awhile he keeps saying its been like 3 days since my mother dies, as though he realizing that his mother is not there no more and its taking affect on him. “I realized he was crying. For some reason of maman". Bam. I think he is showing emotions as well even though he is a detached person I think he is slowly caring ,he fact that his mother died and its slowly affecting him, there is always someway of having feel.

Like I do question, why the fact people would want to detached and I guess “not really apart if the world”, like how would that feel? I don’t think I would want to know sounds kind of scary, even though Banach might say we are alone but if I see people all around me that’s gives me a reason not to feel alone cause I am interacting with people and feeling emotion at the same time. I think the next chapter of him seeing a murder might bring him more into feeling emotion and not so detached because he actually saw death in front of his face. But I’m not sure that’s just a thought.

During Tuesday advisers, I’m with Andy and he gives us assignments on analyzing people and try to figure things out with what you see and what you get out of it. At the end of the day I do be looking at other people and be a little curious. Being involved with things is what shows people characteristic about themselves. If you was detached I don’t really think that’s showing what you really want to be, I think there must be a reason for everything no matter what. Hopefully while I do more reading, maybe he will show more of him self? Or maybe he will just say like that?

Huckabees

I heart Huckabees.. do you really??

Why did they named the movie I >3Huckabees?. thats just weird to me. this kind of reminds me of the name meet the Fockaers. thats just a werid name too.

While I was watching the Huckabees, it made me realize how much this world can be. Meaning there’s always new ideas and thoughts that come up in people minds. The fact that there so many views, there are plenty of ways to argue and reopen to other options of your own opinion. The Huckabees was explaining different thoughts about life; the main Character was influenced by each person views and tries to see through everything they told to think about. It turns out it made him crazier but gave him the ability to make friends and more of life then what he just thought of life. In the end all I think what matters is his views of how he think life affects him, he can have so many ideas come at him but in the end is how he takes it and did it really help him as a person. If not, was it really worth him going through the process of realizing the facts of his own? I think for the Huckabees movie I need to see by myself to understand it more clearly.

This kind of reminds me of Eleanor Roosevelt her beliefs about life she explains that theres some value to your own life so therefore there must be a reason to most things in life.

“Think out for ourselves what we could believe and how we could live by it - Eleanor Roosevelt

I think this is expressing that if you believe in something then living by your beliefs is being who you are as a person and that there’s more than just what people tell you, the fact that you have your own mind gives you the option to your beliefs and that we should be able to think for ourselves and live our life’s.

Do you think some other person will start and talk about the things like the movie Huckabees? I think this will cause a big fight or a game of jeopardy of Banard, Caterine, Banach of their views. That will be intersting to see.ha.
