The Rabbit- Proof Fence

The Rabbit Proof Fence was an excellent movie.  I really liked it.  It kept you at the edge of your seat and it was intense with its back round music.  I learned a lot about the Aboriginies culture and the way the Europeans treated them.  I didn't think it was fair to take away their half-cast children and breed the black out of them, just because they didn't want two cultures, they wanted dominate white.  They wouldn't let them speak their own language; they taught them proper English.  They wouldn't let them wear their own clothes; they would dress them properly how the Europeans would dress.  They changed everything in their life; everything that they had learned, everything that they were taught, was now forbidden to practice.  They treated them fairly.  They didn't kill them and put them into furnaces and have concentration camps where they would kill them.  They gave them good food, and as long as you obeyed, they wouldn't hit you and punish you.  My thought was, why would you take the children from the parents.? It's bad enough the parents have to keep hiding them from the Europeans.  I felt really bad when the men came and took gracie, and Molly and Daisy never saw there sister again.  What I didn't understand was, why did they call them half-casts? I understood that they were half of two cultures, but I didn't get casts.  It was amazing how Molly knew that that man was lying to her and her sisters about their mom waiting for them at the train station.  Its like she read his mind he was going to turn them in.  It amazed me how this had been going on for years and the government just recently apologized for what they had done was wrong.  But its to late for sorry,  saying sorry wouldn't bring back the souls who went through the pain and stress they went through.

HALLOWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!

     What I did for Halloween was sit at home and spend the special day with my mom.  She was born on "Devils nigh".  When she was little, her siblings used to tease her and call her a Goblin because she was born on Halloween.  We ran a few errands; grocery shopping, house shopping, and clothes shopping.  I was excited to go out with my friend Liz and go Trick-Or-Treating.  When we finished running our errands, Liz called me and we talked about were we are going to go Trick-Or-treating for some free candy.  But once I got off the phone, my mom asked me if I had any homework left and I said no.  Once I checked my planner, I had forgotten to write my response article for English.  So, I called Liz again and told her how I had forgotten to type my paper for English.  I was so upset, I had just called her to make plans for the night, then I end up having to cancel them because I forgot to do my homework.  And it was a holiday which makes it even worse. I didn't have a enough back round information for the original thesis I had in mind.  So I had to re-read the paper and think of a thesis for my article response.  It was hard.  I really had a great idea, but i didn't finish my great idea.  So I went with conscience thesis.  It was the easiest one you could do because there were a lot evidence of The Man in the well representing being conscience to the kids.  After typing that, we went to pick up my brother from his friends house.  He went Trick-Or-Treating.  He got three pounds of candy and he wouldn't share any with me.  "Get your own!" he said.  "I didn't go out Trick-Or-Treating" I said.  "Well, thats not my problem" he said.  But when we wasn't looking, I managed to sneak into his bag and snag four candy bars; Twix, Babe Ruth, Herseys, Almond joy, and Snickers.  Those are my favorite candy bars.  then, my brother and I watched The boy who cried Were Wolf.  It was a special movie on Nickelodeon starring Victoria Justice.  An hour later, I had to listen to my brothers stupid story on his adventure of Trick-Or-Treating with his friend.  I went to bed after that.  It defenetly wasn't a Halloween I wanted to spend doing.
