Gender inequality

Women's inequality


I feel like women don't get treated the same and it's  been the same for a long time in history .
History is repeating itself with women with the rights and sports because it wasn't right for them to be less them the regular human we are all humans also with the payments that the girls get compared to men they get paid way more by doing the same job. I've comprehend that girls should get the same rights as boys .The time in my life when I felt most powerful is when I stood up for what was right and didn't let anyone change my mind about what I felt . So I took at stand and never looked back because I known what I was doing was right I stood up for my little sister when people were saying mean things about her and I felt I had to sick up for her there was not other option.

Life is beautiful

In the movie life is beautiful there is some connections to the readings we have done like how the Germans came and took all the Jews and the people who were against Hitler. Some of the connections that they have made in the movie to our readings is when the nazis took over all of the Jews business. Also how they had the camps in our readings and in the movie life is beautiful and another thing is how the nazis wrote on the Jews property they wrote hateful things on there businesses and animals. But also they published things in the news papers about the Jews hopping that they would just leave one more connection that was in the movie and in the readings were that Hitler hated anyone without Blonde hair or blue eyes he wanted the nation all the same. If you didn't meet his standard you were a half breed and were not good enough. That's how many people got placed in the concentration camps.

In the movie life is beautiful the father and the son were taken to the concentration camp because they were Jewish and the father could not tell his 6 year old son what was going to happen to them so he made up a game and told his son that they were very lucky to be there. It was his sons birthday when they got taken so he had to make it seem happy for him. His moods were happy compared to every other person who was also in the camps. Once one of the Germans came in to talk to all of the prisoners in the camp the german couldn't speak Hebrew . So the father said he could translate but he didn't know German was saying so he was making everyone laugh because he was explaining the game to everyone instead of what the german was saying. Once that happened then the son really believed what the father was saying is true the father was grave for doing that because he could of died. Even though they had the father working like a slave he never gave up on his story that he was going to win the game and the tank that his son wanted. The father tried to persevered through the fact that he could die at anytime and the fact that he was in the camps.


Life is beautiful is shown as a life of a simple family who gets turned for the worse when the nazis stop by the store that the father owns. Later on the next day the father and the son get put on the train and the mother sees them so she has the nazis stop the train so that she can get on too. So there whole family was on there way to the concentration camp  the son was with the father and the mother was separated from them but they still managed to talk to each other. One day the father went to the speaker were they would say the announcements so he said if she was there that he loves her and he wants her to know that him and there son was safe. Then another day he played the song that they got married to through the speakers. So she known that they were safe another thing was when the father had to hide his son Joshua because the nazis had all of the children separated. He had to make sure that they couldn't see him then one day they were caught so the son had to go with the nazi children his father told him not to talk to anyone or they will lose the game. One of the fathers friends recognized him so he got his a job as a servant so he was giving everyone food and serving them they were trying to talk but the nazis were starting to catch on. The father was still able to see Joshua while he was working, At the end the father died and the son gets his tank with the mom.

Good life

Nick had to persevere through life, His life  without his arms or legs and he really never gave up so he persevered and persevered means you go through life and you never give up no matter how hard his problems where in life. Nick has also had a lot of confidence to get up in front of many schools and people judging him right of the bat but then he explains his life story and he dosent do it to get attention. He does it to let other people know that they are not alone . This also can apply to my life becaus I had to persevere when the hospital overdosed my grandfather. This was a very hard time for me because he means the world to me and I could never imagine losing my grandfather my whole family was down for that time because it hurt us all. But now he's slowly progressing. I had to stay positive and keep a good mindset so that he could get better. He had to be very strong because when he passed away he did not want to die so he kept on fighting and they where able to bring him back. Now he's having a lot of problems he got fried on his whole left side and he is in depression and where trying to get him better. All he needs in courage to help him guide and he needs to keep going and never give up . Same thing like nick he never gave up

Hyundai's 'live' commercial

The hyundial's car commercial, It really caught my attention because I've realized how fortunate I am to have people my mother / father with me 24/7. It caught my attention because a lot of kids that aren't able to have their parents for the holidays or special events. The whole story behind this commercial is to reunite the kids back with their Army parents. In this commercial they said that "Millions of people just watched the super bowl, But it wouldn't of been possible without our troops". So basically in the Commerical it points out 1main fact.The one fact is that it's never fun to leave your family behind when you have to go back to work so one special thing that the commercial put together was a live video of his or her family to watch together.

The gift that I'm most thankful for

The gift that I am thankful for is to have my grandpa alive after what had happened. And the reason behind all this is because on November 10th,2015 a tremendous ruination happened. On that beautiful morning of November my grandfather went into surgery at the Hines V.A hospital for his fistula they had to do surgery because both of his kidneys failed and what the fistula does is its a port in his chest that the doctors hook up to a dialysis machine and the machine pumps his blood and cleans it for him. Basically what the kidney does but instead he has a machine do it for him he needs this to live .We are hoping that in a year or two we can get a surgery that gives him a kidney but until then we have to just sit and wait he goes every other day at 4:00 Am .My mom wakes up and takes him to the hospital it's not every far but it's still a drive . Sometimes I go with her because I like being in a car to drive when it's dark out but I get really tired . But anyways on the 10th is when this all happened and it continued in the hospital for 7 more days he was in a coma for 7 days and once he woke they told us that he was never going to walk again. But then there was a miracle he began using the walker to help him walk when he was still in the hospital unfortunately he was in the hospital for thanks giving . That did not stop our family from having the same celebration that we have on thanksgiving . We would normally do it at my house but not that year we brought the party to the Hines v.a hospital we made all the food and brought it to the hospital . My grandfather was very happy to be with us eating thanksgiving dinner it was a very special day for our whole family because we had my grandfather alive with us . But that surgery was a horrible one they caused a lot of heart ache with my family . Because they overdosed him his heart went crazy and he had a heart attack and he had to get 4 stuns placed in his heart to keep it running. While they did this procedure they transferred him to Loyola hospital thankfully everything went okay and he's okay . Now we face so many new battles we have to get used to but I'm just very thankful that he's still alive and here with us. That's the gift I'm most thankful for!.
