In the story a walk to remember this is the last thing said. Landon had just lost his wife Jaime to cancer.

He wanted to do things that would help his future and promised himself  he would do it. When Jaim was gone he did everything he said he would do for her.

Margaret And I.

In the book that im reading Are You There God? It's Me Margaret. I can relate to Margaret in  a way because i had to move from loved ones just like her when i was younger. I had to move from an apartment building away from my friends just like her. And she had to make new friends but i wasnt able to because i had moved into a house. I know the way she felt when she thought she was going to be alone but she ended up making friends. She had to go to a new school and i didnt , i still had to go to the same school but just moved into a different place where i didnt know anyone. I had to get used to the fact that i had no one to play with.

Connection

I think I have only seen a movie relating to the book Anne Frank The Diary of a Young Girl. The movie was just as sad as the book. The movie wass called The Boy In The Striped Pajamas. Its about a little boy who's father is in the Nazi party , one day he sneeks off to a concentration camp where he meets a little boy in the camp. He then becomes his friend and one day sneaks into the camp and had changed into a striped uniforn that looked like pajamas to help the boy look for his father , who doesnt know has been killed , and when they go into a loge they end up getting taken to take a "bath". And if you want to know what happens watch the movie(:

It reminded me about the book because it had to do with the Halocaust and with Nazis and the concentration camps , all that Anne and her family had been hiding from for two years but ended up getting cought.

" All children must look after there own upbringing "

Anne and her father are having a talk , and she feels down about not being able to go outside and breath fresh air.

I chose this quote because not everyone can depend on somthing or someone to make them happy. We have to look after our own selfs and no one else.

Earn it

" We have reasons to hope for happiness , but . . . we must earn it for ourselves. "

Anne is upset and tired and doesnt feel well. She wants the war to be over so she can play and be outside and just be free.

I chose this quote because it makes so munch sence. It is true you can hope for happiness but hapiness may not always come , to get happiness you have to earn it.

Appear , and Gives

" Laziness may appear attractive , but work gives satisfaction. "

In this section Anne talks about Peter , Margo , and Herself. How they are much alike but don't live the same lives.

I chose this quote because it is true.Laziness may seem cool , but work is satisfaction , you get things done and it is best to do things first and relax later.

Golden Rules

" Theres one golden rule to keep you: laugh about everything and don't bother yourself about others.! "

Anne was feeling upset about peter. She had thought that Margot was interested in him to. She was feeling sad because he was the only young man in the house and her sister might like him.

I chose this quote because it is true no matter what puts you down , always think of yourself and be happy.

Trapped

" We have been pointedly reminded that we are in hiding , that we are Jews in chains , chained to one spot , without any rights , but with a thousand duties. "

Robbers had broken into the building. Mr.Koophius had told them that they were not aloud out of the " Secret Annex " into the offices anymore , that it is to dangerous now especually that people have had broken intoi the building. Anne , Margot , and Peter are dissapointed knowing there not able to shower in there own private rooms were they had before.

I chose this quote because it sounded interesting to me and so true. Jews werent able to do anything it all. They were treated like animals , not even human beings. It sucks that they were treated so bad in the past.

It Will Change

" It will alter. "

In this part of the book , Anne is getting sick and tired of being in the " Secret Annex ". She is so tired of being locked up inside a small place , she wants to go outdside and breath fresh air , she hates not being able to talk as loud as she used to.

I chose this quote because i love the way the vocabulary is chosen , and how Peter comforts her by saying things will change in the future. Anne really believes that things will change in the near future and hopes that the war will be end.
"It is just as dangerouse for seven as for eight."

In this part of the book the Franks had decided to invite an eighth person into the " secret annex ". Meip had arranged for it to happen. They had decided to invite a dentist named Albert Dussel.

I chose this quote because it is true in the " secret annex " no matter how many people there are the amount of danger is always the same.
