Bored in Physics.... Again :)

I got bored in Physics, so I drew on the back of my notebook.

The Face On Your Plate, pg. 59-103

This chapter is called "The Lives They Lead." It starts out by saying most biologist ignore animal happiness. He goes on to say that animals are happy in nature, and they have adjusted to life in the wild. Animals have emotions. Geese feel pain when a loved one dies. In Europe, they have a committee that states animal rights in animal farms. We don't have any such committee in the U.S.

Then, he goes on to talk about chickens in animal farms. They are forced into small cages. Boy chicks are killed right away. Girls are kept for eggs. Most chickens are killed after two years because they have laid most of their eggs. Eggs effected because the chickens are stressed.

Then he goes on to cows. He explains that cows only give milk after birth. The calves are taken away quickly so the mom and baby don't bond. Veal is calves meat. Most cows farms keep them indoors and feed them chemicals to produce more milk.

Then, he goes on to pigs. Pigs have their teeth and tails cut off soon after birth. This is extremely painful. He goes on to say that these situations emotionally and physically hurt the animals. This is wrong.

This chapter was slow. I learned a lot; however, I am still not a vegan. This chapter had a lot of very graphic descriptions, but I really like chicken.

Eclipse, pg. 113-151

The first chapter that I read was called "Imprint." Jake and Bella are catching up. Jake updates her on who's new to the pack and what not. Then, he starts telling about Sam. He was the first werewolf. After he changed, he broke up with his girlfriend Leah and fell in love with Emily, Leah's cousin. It wasn't Sam's fault. He had imprinted. It's werewolf nature picking the best mate possible. Then, Jake says something rude about the Cullens, Bella says grow up, and he says he can't. Bella throws a fit because nobody else is aging except for her. Then, Jake tells Bella that he missed being human. Again, Jake says something rude about the Cullens and Bella says that she's going to leave. He apologizes. She says that Jake needs to try to get along with Edward. Then, Bella leaves.

The next chapter is called "Switzerland." Bella is driving back to Forks. As she's driving she sees Edward's car following her. Scared to face him, she goes over to Angela's. There she helps Angela with preparations for graduation. Then, she goes home. Edward was waiting in her room for Bella. He gets mad at her. She say he needs to get over it. Then, a week later Edward goes hunting. Alice forces Bella to spend the night at the Cullen house. Bella had to cancel her with Jake. As Bella was about to go to sleep Rosalie asked if they could talk.

These chapters were really good. I am so excited for the next chapter. I can see why Edward gets mad when Bella is with Jake, but he needs to trust her. The next chapter is one of my favorites in Eclipse!

Rumspringa, pg. 173-188

This chapter is called "Farming: 'The Ideal Occupation.'"The chapter starts out with a farmer who spends all his time farming. Next is Tobias K. During his rumspringa, he didn't want to be a farmer, but now he loves it. The number of Amish farmers are decreasing. Amish farmers usually farm organic foods. They usually  have small farms. Amish farmers can't use electronic farming machinary, so they have small managable farms. One of the farmers says that he feels closer to Jesus when he farms.

This chapter was a quick read. I learned a lot about Amish farmers and who they are.

My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding!

This is a show in Great Britain about Gypsy. It's actually really good. It's like a documentary. The title is sort of stupid, but the show is amazing! Here's episode 3... http://www.zshare.net/download/8600750556731e89/

If you go on http://www.hellandheartaches.com/ that website has all the episodes up but you have to go through all the post to find posts about the show! :)

Bored while working on Physics! :)

I was REALLY bored!

To Kill A Mockingbird, pg. 20-42

The second chapter starts out with Dill leaving. Scout is about to start school and is very excited. Scout's teacher is Miss Caroline. Scout is ahead of the rest of the class. Miss Caroline says to stop learning from Atticus, Scout's dad. Later, Miss Caroline asks everyone to get his or her lunch out, but Walter Cunningham doesn't have one. Miss Caroline gives him a quarter, but he doesn't take it. Scout says that Walter is a Cunningham; therefore, he won't borrow anything. Miss Caroline gets mad and hits Scout on the hand with a ruler.

The third chapter starts with Scout beating up Walter. Jem stops her, and asks Walter to come over for dinner. They go home and start eating. Walter and Atticus talk about farming. Calpurnia, Scout's family cook, brings syrup. Walter pours it all over his food. Scout says WTF, what are you doing? Calpurnia takes Scout to the kitchen and slaps her for being rude. After eating, they went back to school. At school, Miss Caroline sends Burris Ewell home for having cooties in his hair. He leaves, but on his way out he curses at her. She cries.

The next scene is at home. Calpurnia aka Cal says she missed Scout. Scout tells Atticus that he can't teach anymore. He says he will continues as long as Scout keeps going to school.

These chapters were good. I feel bad for Scout who got hit twice by two different people in one day. She really got started on the wrong foot. I am still confused why Miss Caroline doesn't like Scout reading at home. I think that's dumb.
