After reading the book, I ponder that Nick forfeits a respect to her as a adult’s perspective and I pity her whenever he shows such an attitude.

Monogamy is not realistic; at least that is what Amy learned from her father.

Reading a variety of novels throughout my educational career has been an essential portion of my life furthermore; I believe the Irvine Unified School District should teach the novel “The Outsiders” by Susan Eloise Hinton. This novel has many themes and morals that fit perfectly with it, but the main one is to show how our society segregates people based on their looks and appearance.

Scientist are researching genetic modification for many reasons. Some people think we are not good enough the way we are, and want to create a ‘perfect’ person. We have been given the ability to learn how to heal sickness and fix wounds with science. However, we have a responsibility to use this information wisely.

Although, some people believe genetic modification is what we need to better the human race, in actuality genetic modification can be dangerous, because overstepping our boundaries will produce something that is no longer authentic or that is unable to relate on a genuine level.

Opposite of Louie, Miné Okubo was an American citizen that was put in an internment camp after the bombing of Pearl Harbor because of her Japanese ancestry. Both Miné Okubo and Louie Zamperini experienced isolation and dehumanization in their situations. Even though Japanese-American internees and American POWs were tried to be made invisible in World War II, both groups resisted and made efforts to regain their dignity.

His childhood as a delinquent and training as an Olympic athlete were deciding factors in his will to survive and overcome.

It's my responsibility, you don't owe nothing to me but to walk away.” The darkness she mentions is a metaphor for this grim and hopeless place their relationship is in, and the regret that she so “accustomed to” is the mistreatment and corruption between the couple. Every moment “you could snatch,” are metaphors for the abuse and squandering between the pair, and looking back in retrospect she questions the time she had wasted in such a toxic environment, and after all this time the only thing she wants is this clean slate, away from him. Thomas Jefferson’s break up anthem to King George The lll isn’t too far from Amy’s.

Love makes us do crazy things. It makes us become people we never thought we were. Love gives us an ultimatum about our life. Love is a powerful bond and wicked curse. When we love, we love hard.

Marriage is often thought of as a union between two people; a promise that is supposed to last a life time. In today’s world, reality reigns. Marriage is often broken, or held together due to legality. A promise does not mean the same as it did in yester year. Despite this ugly truth, young men and women still dream of the time when they will say “I do” before their family and friends. However, often times we as young people get mired in the process of finding a mate, rather than enjoying the company of others. Whether it is for political or religious reasons, relationships have the potential to get mucked up.
