School reforms

For under performing schools i believe that shutting them down is in the best interest of the students and parents. But for schools that are under consideration for closing it causes pressure on the staff to raise test grades by either helping kids in school or lowering standards which no one benefits from.If Oly had to shut down i hope it would just reform the curriculum because the staff at the school is good.

Technology

In the modern world we live in technology is ever growing and is always leaving us behind.As we consider this I wonder if we have become more indifferent to the world outside of myspace or facebook. I know for myself I wouldn't be able to live without the modern luxuries that have become common place. This makes me wonder if in fact it is possible for something to happen like terminator.

Oh Brother Where Art Thou

My favorite part of Oh brother where art though so far is the baby face guy, I forgot his real name. I think this part of the movie was just a funny add in and had no real purpose to the plot of the movie, but it was funny so it worked. I think the part most like this in the Oddysey is when Oddyses' men kill the cattle of the sun god.

premonitions

I once had a premonition right before my ninth birthday. I dreampt that something bad would happen to someone soon but since it was only a dream I didnt do anything. But when my birthday came we were at the park and i was swinging from the monkey bars or something and then I fell and broke my arm. I dont know if this was an actual preminition though. My belief on premonitions is that someon has a bad dream then because they are nervous there unconious brain makes the person hurt themselves to complete the premonition.

Shakespearean Influence

I think that a movie that is influenced by shakespeares works is The Titanic. This movie is an example of star-crossed lovers because their are two people that are from different social classes and are forbbiden from each other because of the times that they live in and their class.

A shakespeare play that is like this movie is Romeo and Juliet. In both the movie and play they are forbiden from each other although in the play it isnt because of their social class it is because of thier families but its simalar. Also in the end of both the movie and play the two main characters die but for different reasons but there both based on the fact that they love each other.
