Nicenet Entree' (Is It Really Us)

Honestly that is so true because if only you can read the word for yourself and find that there's more to life then just living it, yes we can only take life as it comes but other than that it's so true to read God's word and know for yourself because yes we are not perfect and we fall short to the glory of God's grace but you have to know for yourself and I believe that if more of us young people can pull each other together and not always disagreeing on stupid stuff because believe it or not we're all serving the same God just in our own individual ways so I'm mean whether you believe in reading the bible or serving God differrently religion has really got a big effect on today's socity because each of us try to say well no God's life was this and it was this my suggestion is this look at this movie called "Passion of Christ" then judge how you believe Christ's life was because only God can tell you actually how it was ask him for yourself when you pray, but I totally agree with everything that is said.Sherrod O.RodenU.S. FloridaBooker High School, Sarasota

The Pillow Book

1.) The most interesting part of "The Pillow Book" was when they were talking to the dog as if he/she could ready talk like humans.

2.) I think Shonagon sent word to Tadataka because the dog was acting strange and unusual so that's why I think Shonagon had sent words to Tadataka to let her now that, that was a totally different dog.

3.)I think that the author is a okay writer when it comes to her writing in her dairy. She tells things as see them. Things in life are hateful, beautiful, and embarrassing and that's how things are in the real world.

4.) I think she means that her typical beautiful day is different in other peoples eyes that might have a different idea of a beautiful day than her.

6.) I agree with graceful things and embarrassing things. People in today's world always get embarrassed and find certain things pleasant and nice. But I don't agree with hateful things because I don't hate things/people I might dislike things/or dislike certain people for what they do or for their personality.

Japanese Poetry

1.) I think that Jade flower Palace has the most vivid images.

2.) "Land Of Plague And Fever." meaning that the land is dangerous, not a good place to be."Wings to Fly With Water" and "Horned dragons" probably have to do with war.

3.) You never miss something until it's gone.

4.) The details that he provide in "Song of P'eng-ya are that they ate, well served rations of food.

6.) The narrators differ their attitude by the writing of the poem the (subject) in Jade Flower Palace." He talks about a palace which is anbanded and demolish. In Ozymandias he talks about a traveler he might and the landscape of the desert.

7.) Yes because it talks about how he got in trouble with the prince who did some wrongdoing, So his poems are base on the things in his life.


8.) His poems are relevant to the modern world because people today write like Tu Fu wrote in the eighth century, they use the same word structure, similes metaphors and etc.

Nicenet Entre'

Yes I'm Sherrod O.Roden and I live in Florida and we have a state wide test called the (Fcat), Florida-Comperhensive-Assessment-Test and it's the most stupidiest thing anybody in the world could think of because once we're given the test nobody knows what's going to be on it and as well the teachers don't even have a clue about it, the material that is given for the test isn't even used once given the test and you have to pass it before the 12th grade to graduate it's not fair because half of the stuff we study for and think is going to be on the test isn't even on there and I mean what the hell we aren't going to use any of the knowledge we lack of gaining because all the test does is test our strengths and weakness ansd I believe it's stupid because they give you question with no sence and expect that you would understand it the first time that you read it......So my question goes right back @ you. Does your state or country have a national wide test that must be taken because we do and it's the dumbest thing in the world I sware.Yours TrulySherrod O.RodenSarasota, Fla Booker High School P.S.- Next time the state decides to give us a state wide test please make sure you can take the test and it make some "Sence" you idoits-Who ever came up with (F.C.A.T)-

Women in Botswana

The way the life is in Botswana for women is unbelievable because, for one HIV was most prevalent amoung women in Botswana, however the percent has declined since 2003.
Women are beat and raped by their male partnes on a daily bases, something like that happening in the U.S just ain't gon'n down, But there have been a number of legal triumps for Botswana women in recent years as well Botswana has been the most highest country with AIDS and HIV which are usually passed down to all of there children that they have.


As well alot of the Botswanian women have alot of time on there hands as such as there husbands don't but the living conditions are just not suitable because they walk to everywhere they go and as well take most of there time up by finding food for their families, and also they try to go to different organizations and church things so that they won't have to go through all of the pain and suffering with there husbands and other male partners of which who are by choice.

It's Only Up To You

Well to be honest with you I believe that there shouldn't even be a army because the way that BUSH has killed our inoccent lives and cause so much chaos in the U.S today man we don't need any thing. AMERICA takes so many things for granted but still have kids and babies in different areas who wish the had the opprotunity to have and do the things we do today it really doesn't even make any sence, but I belive that the only way a person can be in or want to get in the army or any other thing that has to do with it is by choice not force because I can remember when my teachers and family memebers would tell me about the big draft that the world had and I believe that no one should have to go in it if they don't want to so NO there is no problem with women getting into it but it has to be by choice not force and let everyone live there lifes because no matter what if we weren't in war tell me how the world would be hummm..... Makes you think and wonder hunn because we're so use to the AMERICANS tring to take up everything and be so greety it isn't fair so what ever is what ever BUSH needs to get out now because you know if the world keeps going as is yeh they might just begin to draft everybody in no matter who you are and what your gender is.Sherrod O.RodenU.S Fla,SarasotaBooker High School

Analysis of Women's Role

What was expected of women in the Athenian society was no more better than a slave. They married at the age of 15 and to a man that was twice their age. Their weren't allow to even eat with their husbands and his male friends.Women of spartan had much more freedom then women of Ancient Greece. They couldn't have any part of having a real job or getting any education. So their Role in Athenian society was basically like being a slave to their husbands. Doing what they needed them to do,cleaning up around the house, and taking care of their kids. So this is what was expected of the women of Athenian.

This Is What It Is?!?!?!

I BELIVE THAT MY LIFE IS FOR ME TO JUDGE AND NO ONE ELSE AND I SAY THAT BECAUSE IT'S SO MANY PEOPLE IN THE WORLD WHO ALWAYS HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY ABOUT HOW YOU MAY CONTROL YOUR LIFE. IT ISN'T THEM THAT HAVE TO LIVE SO WHY ARE THEY SO WORRIED ABOUT WHAT I DO AND WHO I'M WITH IT'S LIKE SO MANY PARENTS IN THE WORLD TRY TO PLAN THERE CHILDRENS LIFE AND TO SO MANY SURPRISES THEY DON'T GO THE WAY THEY THINK IT MAY GO BUT WHAT CAN I SAY IT'S ME WHO LIVES THE LIFE AND NO ONE ELSE AND DAT THE END OF ITHI I'M SHERROD RODEN FROM SARASOTA,FLA AND I ATTEND BOOKER HIGH SCHOOL WHERE I WILL SOON BE A TEENAGE FATHER

Poems By:Sappho

1.) The poem that I feel I understand better of the three will be "He Is More Than a Hero" i belive this poem I undersand better because of the way that it self explanitor and I understand how she feels about the ones she calls more than just a hero, she explain basically how she feels toward the person.

2.)~A.) In the first poem the author seems to talk about a family member which has passed away because of how she describes the women in the poem and as will if the woman that passed was a really close family member or something someone special to her heart.
~B.) In the second poem the author explains and describes as if she's in love and the person she's with treat her as if she was a queen or something a very special perosn in her life that i guessing she really adores.
~C.)Also in the last poem she speaks as if she's going or talking about a special place were she can go and be in good peace and relax

3.) I would say that, she values intimate moments of friendship, and I would say that do to the way she described it in the poem "Some say throging cavalry.." because it seems as if she remembering her beloved friend or family member who had died or something that's why I beleived that she values intimate of friendship because the way that she described their relationship

4.) I would say that in todays world with the poems she wrote i would probably say that it would go in contemporary because it's seems as if she writing about love but then again death i don't know it's really hard to explain but I would say that it would most likely be contemporary music

So It's Love You Say

You thought you had me played as smooth, but baby you must not know, it's all cool... I tried and tried to give you my best, and i guess it wasn't enough because this turned into nothing but a mess.
But I'll let you have that you played your cards right, but that still don't mean I want to lay with you tonight.
It seems as if you take me as a joke, baby you better ask somebody and this time take some notes..
Yeah I thought I loved you and wanted to be with you for life, I guess not because baby we both can see it ain't right..
Man I'm tired of it being all about you, girl you better think twice get your life right, cause on my shift, I'ma make it with or without you in my life..

Greek Culture

1.) The religion is different because it has no sacred writings (such as the bible) and no commandments.

2.) Because the gods quatteled and competed with each other and showed human qualities such as love, hate and jealousy, and they'ree differents because the Gods we have can live forever.

3.)Because about one-fifth of the population could participate in government, and as well many positions were paid, so even por citizens could hold office.

4.) Socrated, Pluto ,Aristotle

5.)Boxing, Wrestling, The javelin and discus throws, and races of all kind

6.)The way they spell the letter they sound it the same exact way.

Egyptian Literature

2.The tone of the attitude that I would have considering the way the book is teling it would most likely bea very praising type joyous type attitude because when your saying things like that you'll see that it's a very happy occassion.

3.The reason that the spaeker thinks that Ra should get praise is because like unto them he's a God or something a very high placed person that should get all the praise.

4.She's saying that because, she's letting others know that know matter what may happen or what they may go through she's still going to be by his side and stay with him forever and that means that she's going to be like a bridge none movale next to him

6.I would say the "Adoration of The Disk did because i understood it so much until it's like a everyday life to me but it's as if i would say i go to church and praise the God I serve like that. because every morning I thank him for waking me up but once we go to sleep it's quite and still and it seems as if everything is dead but i can say that it gave me the most snese exspeacially as a person.

7.Because there both telling the feelings that they have for a man and the way that they feel towards them .

8.Because withen both we apprecitate the everyday life and the things that we go through, however we prepare for death as well because we never know what may happen today tomorrow or anything so that's exactlly how it is with ancient Egyptian and in today's society.
