Life is Beautiful.. Most Of The Time (Movie Review) *SPOILERS*

In ELA we watched this movie called Life Is Beautiful. It takes time during the Holocaust, and there was this family that was sent to a concentration camp. The wife (Dora) was separated from the child and the father in the girls section of the camp. (I didn’t see the first part of the movie) So from what I saw, was that the leaders of the camp had tricked the children into going in the gas chambers for a “shower” and wiped them all out. But there was one child who didn’t like showers (Giouse)and so he ran to his father. And since his father was so creative, he came up with a game so his son wouldn’t get scared or anything. If the child follows all the rules and hide, he will win the game and get a tank. There was a time where the child wanted to leave but the dad said they were so close to getting the tank and tricked him into staying so they wouldn’t get caught escaping. But towards the end bad things start to happen and the Germans fight the U.S and the father gets caught to look for Dora and never finds her while Germans escape with hundreds to send to gas chambers. Then the father gets shot but the child finally gets his tank and the mom escaped the trucks and they lived a better life. My favorite part was when the father’s inside friend invites him to be a waiter at a dinner and his son sneaks in and he also gets food but then he speaks, which he speaks another language from all Germans and everyone knows. He says thank you in his language and the commander goes to get the higher commander but by then he’s teaching all of the children how to say thank you in Italian. The movie was really interesting.

All Grown Up

Where I would be in 10 years would be a cook. (I have back up jobs which are a building manager or a lawyer because they make lots of money.) When I'm all grown up I'll have a nice house with three of my dream cars, a Flex which is a car that can hold like 12 people I've been in one on the way to church carrying all the members. Another car would be a drop top Mercedes, I want a drop top because I like the wind blowing in my face on the expressway and it looks really awesome, I've been in a drop top car only once in my whole entire life. Lastly the car that I would want would be a 3 wheeled motorcycle because I don't know how to ride a bike so the 3 wheels would help. But, I'd love for my nice house to be fully furnished and have a big beautiful garden. A long time from now I see my self cooking for people in my own restaurant and living a normal life. Later on in life I would be living with my girlfriend because at 23 I would be too young for a wife even though...

My Identity

I have many things that define me. Not by just looks but by my culture and family and lifestyle. Of course I am black/African American. I have a long history of bad things and good things that has happened to my culture. My family is Christian and we love to go to church. Our family is actually known and for generations passed down to sing. We are very spiritual and when I'm over my mom's house we usually listen to gospel music. I am a brother of 2 and an uncle of 3. My brother and sister both have kids, Daylena and DaS'hown. And my brother has 1 child that is a girl; Shonti. And my sister has 2 boys, Joshua who turned four on september 18th and my other nephew Jordan who turned 1 year old in July 21st. My mom is a really great cook, but she inspired me to want to be a professional cook, I want to learn how to cook better than her. Even though I am only 13, I still have jobs like most 13 year olds have a job to be students. But I have my own jobs probably a lot of people...

Life Experiences

       All of the life experiences I've ever had taught me a lot. Including my 2 nephews being born. One  of my most joyful days happened on September 21st, 2013. I became an uncle! His name was Joshua and he was my sister's baby, but to get the baby out.... She needed a c-section which is where the doctors cut her open. At this time I was walking to school and it was nice and sunny outside with the wind whistling through the air, *Ding* it was a text from my mom... and it was a picture of my little nephew. My mouth opened up wide, I couldn't believe that I was an uncle, it felt like joy and excitement both punched me at the same time. During school I couldn't stop talking about how excited I was to become an uncle. But then something brought me back in time thinking about...... *Rewind 5 Months*      It was a cold cold day, I had grabbed my bag and went to school, but I forgot to grab something important and I ran out the door so my dad c...
