Many of our friends shunned us‚ life became colder and less fun. There were demonstrations all the time with young children leading them in Hitler Youth uniforms

Entry 1: In contrast to later entries‚ Anne’s early writings hardly mention her family members. Anne briefly introduces her family‚ but until they go into hiding‚ they do not seem to play a large role in Anne’s daily thoughts.

After reading Anne Frank: Diary of a Young Girl‚ a personal diary of a girl named Anne who lived in hiding during World War II‚ I believe Anne’s wise words: that no matter what the situation‚ every person is still good at heart‚ whether you can see it or not.

No matter how bad a person might seem‚ I‚ like Anne‚ believe that deep down inside‚ they

300‚ which was based on the graphic novel by Frank Miller’s‚ is a film that still has many anxious people awaiting to see it. It was directed by Zack Snynder and is considered by many a spin off of Dawn of the Dead. This movie contains nonstop action with so much blood that it may be to much for someone to view in one sitting. 300 can be characterized through a suffering plot‚ unrealistically portrayed strength of warriors in battle‚ jaded dialect‚ and it’s mind-blowing graphical images.

In the text Brujerias by Nasario Garcia I read many short stories and my 4 favorites were the truck driver by Juvenal A. Driver‚ They looked like sheep by Maria A. Mongalo‚ A soul on the plains by Luis Esteban Reyes and A white ghost by Isabel Romero. The reason I picked those four short stories are because every times I read them I felt like they were the beginning of a really good horror story and I love horror stories. I felt like each short story had the potential to turn into their own novel
