ABC Autobiography

Bb - Betrayal
There are so many things that can happen in betrayal. In the case that I am talking about is the betrayal of a best friend. It was last summer the start of it that I was betrayed by my best friend his name was Jeff. He betrayed me by saying something I didn’t do. He told the security at my old school that I threaten to kill him and his family. I think it funny that he would betray someone who has kept him from getting in a lot of trouble with his girlfriends. I told his 6 girlfriend that he was with me when he was with of the other girls. This all started when I was talking to my ex-girlfriend about a problem we where having with something that I was doing. He butted in and I told him to “leave so I can talk to her” and he did so I told him would you please go by the tree then and he did when my ex-girlfriend told him “I will be fine” I gees the way I said it must have offended him because he raised a fist at me. After I talk to her he told the security that I threaten him and pulled a knife on him. That not a real friend if you ask me he just betrayed me by saying thing I never did and by dating my ex-girlfriend will I was in DT. Oh did I mention that he was the one that sent me to DT.


Ll - Long Boarding
I like to long board it make me fill like I can go any where with out having any problems. I now that I suck at long boarding and I intend on getting better at it. The only thing that I use the long board or skate board is for a mode of transportation. Not for tricks of any of the other thing that people use them for. To me long boarding is fun and something that I can do in my free time. When I am on top of a long board I now that is the time to think it clears my thoughts.


Mm - Morning Process
I never understood the morning process. Why would you morn someone that is dead. There is nothing that you can do to change that. Me I never did that I just remembered them by the memories that I have of them. Why do you have to have a grave for them or asses of them ether they just made people sad to visit or see the remains of the dead. The way I see it is if someone is dead then that person would not want you to morn over them just to remember them.

ABC Autobiography

“Mornings seemed mysterious gifts” pg 33 Whirligig

I think that Brent needs to make restitution in the morning and be more productive.

I personally love this quote because it can mean anything that you pretty much want. Yes, the mornings always lead my day a good way. I think that in the morning you are more aware of your surroundings.
I am an early bird ,I love to wake up early and explore new things when nobody is around. I believe that when the sun comes up its time to get up and work but I hate wasting time laying around.
Quote:
The quote for this chapter is that you got the whole control of your life I mean full control of your life.

How does the quote relate to the book?
Brent is so use to getting told what to do. He has people telling him what to do and what to be like. He is so use to worrying about what people think about him.

Why did you chose this quote? How does this quote relate to you?
Because I learned when I was locked up I decided what to do or not. If I wanted to fight I do I had control of what I wanted to do.
‘Rest gives strength activities’. Page 84 the whirligig


I think this relates to the book in a very big way. I think what they were trying to say was some times you just need to start over and take a rest. Like how Brent needs to just take a breath and a nap for a day or two and then when he is done he well be better at making whirligigs.

I personally love this quote. I think it means a lot like if you are trying to do something over and over again but you just cant to it all you got to do is take a break and meditate. And then when you are done you should be able to do it like that.
He realized he needed a punishment. Page 37

I choose this quote because
It relates to me because I know when I mess up and I realize it I’m just like him I would like a punishment.
I hella agree with it because how like I said everybody that messes up or does something illegal for the law should get a punishment.

There are consequences for our acts. My boy. Page 7
Yea their always consequences for everything you do it could be the most little thing ever but if someone takes it bad their goanna be consequences.
And it relates to me because every time I do something stupid I always get the consequences after so yea.

You Have Control over Your Life pg. 18 chapter: Party Time


I chose this quote because, I think its true, I mean if you don’t control what you do, or at least try to, then you’re always going to be getting in trouble or doing things your not suppose to. So when you start to think about bad things, then sit there and think positive, or good things. This quote relates to the book when Brent killed that girl (Lea Rosalia Santos Zamora). If he wouldn’t have been drinking that night, and he would have been on all his six senses, then nothing would have happened. Now he has that guilt in him. So if people think before they act it would be a good thing for them, and people around them. This quote relates to me because, I in the past have acted before thinking, I’ve let my thoughts control me.
Quote

“People live in groups. Groups argue. If the people in the group all get along, everybody will be happy, and they will live in peace.” Whirligig, page 62


Relations

This quote relates to Floco’s life because he comes from a quiet place. Then he moved to the U.S. and now all his family is in one house and it’s very rowdy. Floco is a very peaceful person and he realizes the quote after he sees the whirligig and realizes that if you work together, there will be harmony.



My comments

I find this quote to be very true. My own family is very loud and sometimes you just need a break. I myself take a walk or a bike ride. Whatever works is good, but sometimes you just have to cope with it.
“A nervous energy whipped back and forth inside him”.
Whirligig, page #3

I’m a nervous person when a moment comes to me that I don’t like. I hate having those moments because they just put me in a place where I’m just scared of doing or saying something wrong. I have been in lots of moments like this. Just recently I had a moment where I get scared and I said something wrong at the wrong time.

I had chosen this quote because it had a moment of thinking to me. I agree with this quote because I get nervous almost all the time. It relates to me because I have moments in my life all the time.
“Rest gives strength to activities.”
WHIRLIGIG Page #84

It was told to the mother of the kid that this chapter is about after she heard this Chinese proverb she did not push her kid as much as she used to. The way that she changed was she did not expect him to play the violin. She even let him quit playing the violin which he was happy about because he did not like playing it. The family seams to be prejudiced to me because they expect more from him then his sister. He was Korean and she was pure American strait from Kansas.

I chose this quote because I know that you can’t get anywhere in life without applying your self to any activity/work. I agree with this quote if you don’t get sleep them you can’t apply your self to the activity/work that you are doing. This quote relates to me because I now that if I don’t get sleep them I can’t do what is expected of me.
