Why Is It So Important To Have Someone Listen To You?

    I think it's very important to have someone listen to you in your time of crisis. It's important because you ca have a second opinion on what you are going through. Plus you can get advise form a different perspective on what you are going through. Then again, there are some people who don't care if you listen to them go on and on about their problems or situations. There are also people who don't want you to listen to their problems and tell you their input on the situation/problem.

What Makes A Person Interesting?

    I think what makes a person interesting is basically how they do things. For example: if they talk a certain way or if they are just different from everyone else. Also, their interests make them interesting. If they like something that you have never heard of and they tell you about it is another way that makes a person interesting. Their background story can make a person interesting because whatever happened to them in the past made them into the interesting person they are today.

What Does Janie Want?

    In the book Their Eyes Are Watching God, everyone wants to know what's up with Janie. They want to know about her relationship and what happened to her and Tea Cake and why she's even with Tea Cake. Janie's friend Pheoby wants to know what happened to Janie as well. Did you ever think about what Janie wanted? She lost her husband, and apparently lost her sight of how to love. I think Janie just wants to be happy and be loved again.
    In chapter 3 she began to stop believing in true love or romantic love when she had to marry Logan. "She knew now that marriage did not make love. Janie's first dream was dead, so she became a woman". When she meets Joe, they talk about marrying each other. For example: Joe says to Janie "Ah wants to make a wife outa you". Also when Nanny tells her she should marry Logan, she tells Nanny "Lemme wait, Nanny, please, jus' a lil bit mo'". Maybe when she tells Nanny for her to wait until she gets married is probably because she wants to find someone she actually loves in order for her to get married. Also she believes that no one can make her happy like Tea Cake could.  Like in Chapter 1 she tells Pheoby "Yeah, Pheoby, Tea Cake gone. And dat's de only reason you see me back here-cause Ah ain't got nothing to make me happy no more where Ah was at". Janie wants someone to love her and make her happy.

To What Extent Do Our Desires Drive Our Actions?

    I think what we want definitely drives our actions to a point where it's probably beyond our control anymore. Well, it depends on what people want. If a person just wants something they just want, then their actions are not as driven as what they really, really, REALLY want. If a person wants something and need it really bad, then they are going to do whatever it takes to get what they want, no matter what it takes. Everyone is like that deep down inside of them.

What Would You Do Differently If There Were 30 Hours In A Day?

    Man, I don't know what I would do if there were 30 hours in a day. I mean I wake up, go to school, stay after school to do homework, go home, study, spend time with family, then go to bed. I guess I would just do what I do for 24 hours, then for the extra 6 hours I would just catch up on some sleep. Another thing I could do is probably spend more time with my friends or spend some time practicing on how to play the piano.

What Do You Think The World Will Look Like In 100 Years?

    In 100 years, I think the world will go insane. In a movie (that's not in theatre yet) called "In Time" everyone only gets 25 years to live. Once you are passed with your 25 years, you die. I think the little bracelet where you see how many years you have left goes off and then you die. If you are rich or FILTHY rich you can get more time on your life. I think that is what the world will be like in 100 years. That is also the reason why the world has gone insane, because the government (or aliens) are limiting people's lives to decrease the population OR... nope, that's the only reason I've got.

Greatest Dream I've Ever Had...


I don’t think I’ve ever had a great dream. Lately my dreams have been all over the place. I can go from having a good dream to having a dream about someone in my life getting killed or someone in my life trying to kill me...yeah, I have random dreams all the time.
