Friends

To me, friendship is the second to the most important thing in my life. The first place would of course be my family. I believe that real best friends should tell each other basically everything and listen to each other. Of course, trust between each other is a very important ingredient for friendship. Also, real best friends should never tell other people about the secrets that they've told each other. All friends will somehow and someday have some kind of conflicts, but even then, secrets shouldn't be told to other people. So people tell other people about their friend's secrets in order to let other people befriend them. This kind of people aren't real friends. "My oldest friendship" is actually a pretty vague sentence since I don't know whether it means that we're still very close, or just that we could still talk and smile and stuff. My first interpretation was that we're still very close, so, I believe that it would be a girl from my elementary school. We were in the same school, same orchestra, and the same cram school. Although now we're not anymore, we still chat a lot whenever we can. I believe that some friendships last for a long time because they have similar personalities, interests, and probably a lot of  interactions. Some friendships don't last long, and the reasons my be because one side doesn't appreciate the other side, or probably because the personalities don't match or because the distance is really too far.

The Most Dangerous Game

The most important events in the story, summarized, are the part in which he falls into the ocean, meets General Zaroff on the island and finds out what kind of person he was, the fights they had, and the final fight in the bedroom in which General Zaroff got killed. In the beginning of the story, Whitney was foreshadowing that there would be something bad happening on the island, and the three gun shots too. Then, Rainsford fell off the ship and swam to the island. On the island, he found where General Zaroff and  Ivan lives. When they first met, they chatted about hunting but then Rainsford realized that the General hunts human. He then got forced to hunt with the General. If he gets caught within 3 days, he looses and will die, but if he doesn't, he wins and can leave the island. On the first day, he tried not to leave any mark that would show the General about where he was, and he hid in a tree. The general did find him though, but he wanted to play with him, so he didn't attack him, and just smiled and went home. In the second day, Rainsford used his knowledge and wounded the General. On the third day, he killed both Ivan and one of the best dogs using his experience too. He got chased and jumped into the river, and General Zaroff thought that he won, but when he went back to his home, he found Rainsford in his bedroom waiting for him to kill him. That part would be the climax of the story.

9/7/2011 Villain

In this exact moment, I can't actually think of any villains, but since the stage art class was watching the movie "The Wizard of Oz", I would pick the wicked witch from that movie. I am not the kind of person that would be fascinated by the villains, since they do bad things to the good people, but I other than the reason I said, I think that the wicked witch did a pretty awesome job in the movie. The part that was the best was the part in which she got melted by water. It would be a really hard thing to act, since there are so many people around you, staring, and you're the only one doing the acting at that time. Also, since she was going to melt, the actions of her has to be exaggerated, and if I were her, I'm sure I would laugh out uncontrollably.
