In the novel, Eggs, by Jerry spinelli two kids go on a long journey to regain the feeling of fitting in and friendship. The book starts out with the main character loosing his mother. The main character, David, is only eight and is left with his grandmother. He ignores and blocks everyone out his life, including his grandmother. Then one day he meets a girl. The girl, primrose, also shuts everyone out of her life as a result her mother's lack of attention towards primrose. Primrose, like David, only has one parent guardian. David and primrose end up having a shady relationship. They later on end up spending more and more time together becoming closer friends. Their absence of parents help them keep a tight bond. Primrose and David exchange their life stories and together they become comfortable with everyone and life.
The theme of the story is about friendship and family. The author tries explains that you can still find happiness even after it seems like the one you loved has left you.
I choose this book because of how the author choose to explain the tittle. He didn't just write the name of the book. He choose a picture of a couple of eggs in a basket to identify the book. The name of the book is in fact called "Eggs". I found that very amusing. What kept me reading the book was when I got more into it. I began to read more about the problems these two characters.
This book is very much realistic. All the plots the author throws into the book are non-fiction. I made a couple connections with one of the characters from the story. Primrose, never got to meet her dad. I never did meet my real dad either. Through out the whole story she attempts to replace the absence of her father with images of pass and old actors. I share that same life event with this character; however, I do not replace the absence of my father with images of old actors.
The author's tone is full of humor, but can be full of hope at times. One example of the author's humor is when Primrose and David have a conversation,"...David said, "You got egged. They're fake! why?"
"I figured, maybe if they see them there, they'll say, hey, look, she's already egged, let's hit someone else," said Primrose.
"Did it work?" asked David.
"nope." she snickered" (166)
An example of hope from within the author's voice is one Pg.188 "His grandmother, who was snipping the stems of flowers from the backyard, simply stared at him for a moment, shocked-overjoyed- that he would ask her a question. She quickly recovered and said yes."
Another example of hope is on page 220 when Primrose answered David's question.
"nope. I figured it out my self. I know why he waves to people."
" You do? Why?"
"because," she grunted, "they wave back."
I came across some literary elements in this novel. I found some for shadowing in a quote from the book, " Everybody needs friends." this shows that David would some how he would make friends.
It shows symbolism on page 3 and the tittle. It's a form of symbolism because I feel like it's saying that friendship is very delicate, kind of like an egg.
Third literary element is when the author uses an allusion. It uses an allusion to Clark Gable. (120)
Forth form of literary element is when the author uses imagery when it describes primrose's new house (164).
Fifth literary element just more symbolism, on page 158 where it explains why David is afraid of seeing the sun rise. It's the fear of moving on.
another literary element is when David's grandma asks if she's still Nana in his eyes. I thought that part was some sort of foreshadowing. (128)
Some allusion is on page 36. It brings some famous children books into the book it's self.
Some more foreshadowing is on page 184 when David asks Primrose if they will be going back home soon from their adventure.
Last literary element is in the end when David is making his guest list for his birthday and he invites all of his friend. This shows imagery of hope.
Some direct characterization is when they introduce David. "David had always been a pretty law-abiding kid, but ever since April 29 of last year, he had become a stone sticker for the rules (except his grandmother's) (13).
Another example of direct characterization is when the author describes Primrose, " It was the most beautiful face in the world,"(18).
One example of indirect characterization is the author mentions the police man on pg. (210)
Second example is when David's father comes to play in book, the author just says that he lives out side of town on comes on weekends. The last impression the character left on me was that he was recovering. Recovering from something dramatic.
The protagonist is dynamic because he defiantly changed through out the book. He is round because he has many side to his story.

Five things you can....

Five Things You Can Do To Improve Your Life
1) Laugh more. People always say that laughter is the best medicine. I personally think this is true. I'm all about getting good grades and putting school first and that can be a little stressful sometimes. What I do to relieve all that stress is laugh. I watch funny videos and I hang out with my best friend Meli. After I do all these activities I feel a better and don’t feel Like punching a baby anymore.
2) Care less/more. I say care less, but still care, but only about the more important things. Stop caring of what others think of you. Only care of what the ones you love think and your self. Do what makes you happy. You only have one life, live it how you want it. If you care to much of what others think you're not going to succeed in life.
3) Be wise. You can’t just wake up in the morning and decide to be wise . You have to become wise over time, but to speed up that process you should try reading more books and become somewhat of a wallflower. Keeping all comments to yourself and lying when necessary is a great way of becoming wise. Basically just don’t be an asinine teenager and be somewhat mature when you have too. Reading more books will help you.
4) KEEP FOOD IN YOUR LIFE. I know that sounds like a joke, but I am not lying to you. If you keep food in your life you will for sure never be sad. Food is amazing and its here to help us out and stay alive. Some people avoid food because they are afraid of gaining an amount of weight. See here, most people who participate on these harmful diets only inflict horrible sickness upon themselves like; bulimia, anorexia, and etc. Food is your friend when none else is there. Food brings everyone happiness, why do you think families go out to eat on special occasions or make BBQs? All of these things bring families together. It’s just such beautiful thing. I don’t know about all you folks, but food is my everything.
5) Get a hobby. I would recommend obtaining a hobby of some sort so you can keep yourself busy. If you don’t keep yourself busy you'll most likely become bored or even depressed. I know this is true for me because when I have nothing to do and I stay at home all day I can become really sad. I have anxiety problems so having a hobby is great for me because it keeps my mind clear and fresh. It’s a great distraction from whatever is stressing you out. Hobbies also give you a reason to live or wake up in the morning. Hobbies are just a great tool to have in your life.

My favorite mistake
Couple years ago when I was in sixth grade I got involved into a really big argument with mom. I don't exactly remember why my mom and I got into the argument; however, I do remember it was violent. If I were to guess to as why the fight even started I would guess it was all because of my hair. Back in the sixth grade I started to change my appearance a little bit. I grew out my hair, wore darker clothing, and I got into alternative/ rock music. My mother, did not approve of my new style choice. After the dramatic fight with my mom, I ran away.
I didn't go far, I traveled down my street to my grandmothers'. I remained there for a day. As soon as I walked in I could smell the fresh baked goods baking in the oven. I was not off the hook, my grandma gave me a big lecture in how I should not talk back to my elders nor fight with them. She did the same with my mom. My mom had a conversation with mom over the phone, I tried my best to hear what they said. They both sounded mad.
"I do not care if he comes back or not, I have my two other kids that I can love." Said my mom angrily.
"How can talk like that? He's your son." Fired back my grandmother.
"If he won't do as I say then my two other kids will."
"It's just the anger speaking, you will take back every word you said." Said my my grandmother right before hanging up the phone.
I was missing my mom even though she did say that she didn't want me to come back. Hearing her say such words made me extreamly sad becuase I truley missed my mom.
I cried for the whole night. I became very pensive and thought of how my life would be form then on. Would I actuly have to live with my grandmother from now on? Will I never see my mom again? Will my mom and I ever speak to eachother again? all these thoughts were roaming my little twelve year old mind. Everything soon came to a suddle hualt the day after when my aunt, Alejandra, learned about the scandle. My aunt made me and my mom talk to each other and work it out.
Later that day, my grandmother made me return home. Once there, I then participated in a long and meanyful long talk with my aunt and my mom. My aunt made us talk everything out. I apologized to my mom and she did the same thing. We hugged it out and we made up. One major reason why I regreted running away was becuase I then after had to put everything away. All my clothes in my closet, all my shoes were they go, evrything had to be put back. That was one big pain in the neck. The marrow to the story is that, everything that goes up must come down.

LITERATURE ANALYSIS #1
Crispin The Cross of Lead
By Avi
In this novel many exciting events occurs during a small period of time. In the exposition we start out with a young boy and his mother who dies, both start out to be nothing; living in a small village where they're treated like trash by everyone who inhabits the small village. In the inciting incident the main character is blamed for crime which he has not committed. He is then tittled a "Wolf's head" which back in that time period was considered a real big deal and extremely bad. The main character doesn't really have a name, he's known and goes by Asta's son. Asta was his mother who earlier in the novel dies. Soon after the main character is proclaimed a Wolf's head, the priest of the village, and only friend of the character, reveals to him his true name. The character is astonished to discover his true name, his name has been Crispin. Crispin is wanted and looked for all over his town so that he can pay in death for the crime which he was acussed for. Crispin trys to avoid the charged crime so he runs away from the town. He later on meets a man that goes by Bear. Bear end up claiming Crispin as his own and they become friends. Bear helps Crispin escape and teaches him new ways. They travel far and end up in a great big town where they end up face to face with one of the soldiers from Crispin's old town. The solider attempt to capture Crispin, but do not successfully capture him. In the climax bear gets captured by the soldiers and crispin goes to his aid and saves Bear. In the resolution Crispin also discovers that he is not trash, but royalty and comes from fine blood. Crispin is then left alone and allowed to live a happy life with his new father, Bear. The setting has to do sometime around 1373. The purpose for the author I think is to reach out to readers who feel as if they are to small to over come big obstacles and too inspire readers.
I feel as if the theme of the story was struggle, friendship, adventure, loyalty and death.
literary elements: In one of the chapters of the book Bear tells Crispin that he's as ignorant as a turnip. Quote, "True, youre as ignorant as a turnip." pg. (156)
example of struggle," his bloodstained body was stripped and walted as if he had been whipped." pg. (282)
Example of adventure in the book, "Over the next twenty days , we sometimes followed roads, sometimes only paths. Now and again we made our way through open fields." pg. (152)
Example of imagery, "A steady, hissing rainhad turned the ground to clinging mud. No birds sang. no bells tolled. The sun hid behind the dark and lowering clouds." pgs. (1,2)
Great supporting example of struggle and death, "I peered closer only to see his throat had been slit. His blood made, made black by night, lay pooled upon the ground." pg. (55)

Antigone campare and contrast
In the tragic play Antigone, by sophoulules, a young girl who desperately wants to pay respect to her dead brother will have to break the law and go against her king in order to bury the brother she loves and pay him with a proper burial. There are several differences between the two main characters which cause some of the main conflicts in the play. Antigone the girl who attempts to bury her brother will break the king's laws. Creon, the king of the state, does not want anyone to give Antigone's brother a proper burial. Both characters want the opposite for Polynices. This creates many problems.
Antigone and Creon are very both similar and different in several ways. Both are loyal in different ways. Antigone is loyal to family. Antigone is loyal to all her family's wishes. Antigone said, "That must be your excuse, but as for me I will burry the brother I love" (6, 68) . I can tell that she is loyal to family because she is willing to break the law that was made for the public good out of respect of her dead brother. she's also loyal to the gods. She said that the god's laws are stronger and more powerful than king Creon's laws. (2,65) This proves that she's loyal to the gods. Creon is also loyal too, but he's loyal to something else in a whole other level. Creon Is loyal to his state. Creon said quote," You will give no support to who ever breaks the law (2,59). This shows his loyalty towards his state. He is not loyal to family. He didn't care for Antigone's brother even if he die. This shows some a couple differences between the two characters.
While Antigone and Creon share both similarities and differences their both also filled with a lot of pride. Antigone said quote ," Creon is not strong enough to stand in my way. (2,26). That shows some of Antigone 's pride. It also shows that she's not scared of Creon. Creon said," An enemy is enemy even dead" (2,134). That quote shows some of Creon's pride for his state.
In conclusion I would say that both characters are to blame for the tragedy. Antigone is to blame because she cares to much for her family and contains to much pride. Creon is also to blame because he care to little for family and also has to much pride. Both characters are to blame for their stubbornness. Antigone doesn't care for Creon's laws and Creon doesn't care for the God's laws. Both characters are to blame.
