sand in your ear: January 2009
http://whimsicalwinnie.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Sand in your ear. Wednesday, January 14, 2009. Like Father, Like Daughter. When I was reading the end of the book, I was struck by the fact that Deck Lee was so into his own world that he couldn't take even a moment to find out what had happened to Birdie when he was Brazil. He was just so conceded on his own studies and his book that was about to be complete that he didn't realize how much she had changed. It saddened me to watch how he would pick his book over his family. That he truly didn't care ...

sand in your ear: my race-AFRICAN
http://whimsicalwinnie.blogspot.com/2009/01/my-race-african.html
Sand in your ear. Tuesday, January 13, 2009. I do have a race, and I am shaped by it alot. When I first came to Mcfarland, it was very apprent that I was African. I felt it inside and out. When I started to gain friends and be more used to us, I was no longer black but white. The reason that race shapes me is because I have to break the traditional views that people have of me. I have to do better and be better. This is in other situations, not really at school, I sucks that I go through this.

sand in your ear: Sister Sister
http://whimsicalwinnie.blogspot.com/2009/01/sister-sister.html
Sand in your ear. Thursday, January 8, 2009. I definitely feel bad for Birdie. I think it sucks that she lost her sister. I think I feel for her more because I have a sister, that I kind of lost. I lost her in the emotional sense that we drifted away from one another. We also dont have the same taste in things. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). BYOB - System of a Down.

sand in your ear: Advertisments
http://whimsicalwinnie.blogspot.com/2009/01/advertisments.html
Sand in your ear. Tuesday, January 13, 2009. I never really thought about how advertisments really affect our mental views on gender. On some ads, it is easy to see that there is definte gender characterization. I never really thought about the affect of this in our future and the future of our kids. Its crazy to see that they can be so easily shape by this. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). BYOB - System of a Down. Like Father, Like Daughter. View my complete profile.

sand in your ear: December 2008
http://whimsicalwinnie.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Sand in your ear. Wednesday, December 17, 2008. This is one of the best stories that I have ever read about race. I liked Hurtson's view on her particular race. One of the lines that resinaded with me was, "I am off to a flying start and I must not halt in the stretch to look behind and weep.". I really liked this line for two main reasons. This is one of the strangest books that I have ever read. I was amazed by the intensity of the church. It was so weird how the church had such a great rule ov...I tho...

Sand in your ear. Wednesday, December 17, 2008. This is one of the strangest books that I have ever read. I was amazed by the intensity of the church. It was so weird how the church had such a great rule over its members. If you were a girl, you had to wear clothes that went past your knees and wrist. You also had to ask yourself, "What Would Jesus Do? Before you went anywhere or did anything that you were questioning doing. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). BYOB - System of a Down.

sand in your ear: Prom Date?
http://whimsicalwinnie.blogspot.com/2009/01/prom-date.html
Sand in your ear. Tuesday, January 13, 2009. For the race articles we did in class, I got the article about. Whos Black, Who's White, and Who Cares-. But this post is about another article that I heard about in class. With it being in 1993, you would also think that people would be passed all of the racism and all. All at this time in age, its weird to think that some people havent moved passed it. January 15, 2009 at 4:57 PM. January 20, 2009 at 7:35 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
