My Pool Keeper The story I chose was Lifeguard by Barbara Scott‚ I think that I can relate to this story the most out of the 3 I had chosen to read. And it has more meaning to the story then just what’s written. It has more internal problems with the two main characters‚ Chris and Mike as they both are facing their own family events. The 3 things I chose to speak about were the symbols‚ theme and my personal connections to/of the story. After the seminar and hearing what other people

This movie really portrays the all the different kinds of emotion exerted by all filipinoes in the hands of the Spanish government. In terms of Rizal’s life‚ although they didn’t exactly tell all of his exploits‚ we can see through
