there is only one way to put it vampires
in the book Peeps by scott westerfeld is about a guy named cal who is infected with this weird disease. the disease turns anyone that comes in contact with a carrier of the disease in this case cal so if you are a carrier you are sane but have some super powers. if you get infected you turn into a man eating crazy freaky monster that hides from society. then if you are a carrier like cal you work for this underground government called the night watch and they take care of the crazed infected a.k.a peeps. then cal gets into this big investigation on who infected him and the destruction of civilization.
in the book it is very interesting how the conflict works, it is like real life case the conflict is always changing. throughout the book the conflict was always changing. in the beginning it was finding all of cals infected ex's then went to finding his infector. then it went to finding the new strain and this girl he met quiet. then it went to saving the world from mass destruction and keeping the same girl sane after being infected. it never stopped changing it is like a clock every second is a new minute and a new problem rising.
this also doesn't just happen in cases this happens in everyday lives like a fight or a small breakup. but there are always problems waiting right around the corner. anything can be a problem from killing an ant to messing up a nuclear war head with a chemical bomb. problems are problems and they always will come up and they do have resolutions and some may be drastic but they still resolve it.

In Fair Verona
love in this world is so complicated. the feelings the mind set i can keep going. love exists everywhere in humans, the animal kingdom, bacteria to the body, etc. But romeo and juliet reveals what true love is but isnt really a good example of how they are connected. i believe that the best example of love is how water is connected to the earth. i say this because in romeo and juliet water is used a lot to represent romantic scenes and emotional scenes. Also because it is such a big connection.
in the movie they used water to show emotional scenes like when romeo kills the man and he falls in the fountain. it is like saying he is being returned to earth and being absorbed by the biggest part of existence. also it is like saying i am burying something so big in something so big literally and figuratively. But the best example is when they show the kiss in the pool at the end. it is sort of like saying we love each other so much we want to be apart of the big picture, the big blue (GIANTS) ocean. to say that they are the are and the water and there love means so much to them it is bigger than the earth.
love is so complicated like the earth because we don't know how it all started and what caused it. also the connection between the earth and water is so big without water the plant would be dead and everything on it and without earth everyone would drown and there still would only be fish left and with out earth the water will just keep traveling until it reaches the core where the core will be put out and the planet will be no more. since this is such a big connection this sort of express how big the connection is for love.

the 21st century meaning for super heated compressed sand
in the book Glass by Ellen hopkins a girl named Kristina gets addicted to crystal meth and she has a child, lives with her parents, has a starter job at a 7/11,and met a new guy named trey. Now she is back on cigarettes too but not just that her parents know she is using again so now trouble is brewing up. But what i want to focus on are how the antagonist forces are working against the protagonist.
in the book the antagonist force is the crystal meth because she said she can control her use but now it is almost every few hours of the day she is using. this is slowly killing her one and two it is taking control of her life her mind and everything else. some perfect examples are hat she is in love with some one because of it. her baby might have been killed because she couldn't wake up and save him. And she really isn't eating or loving any one just the guy and her drugs. And so far she learned the dangers and all that but she really isn't learning the big picture how it is tearing her and her from her family apart.
everyone in the world has an antagonist in there life. it may not be as severe as crystal meth but there is still one and that force can change your life exactly like the crystal is doing to Kristina. but all you need to do is overcome it and you can control your life and stay away from a big life changer like crystal meth. But it is never easy to overcome an antagonist but it is possible.

i believe that even the smallest things need the most help. In the picture above it is a 3d chalk drawing of batman and Robin saving the artist from a building but he is really against a small garnet wall. And when a man is going to jump off a building that is a problem but so is a man falling on the side walk and having to lean on something for support. even these problems need some kind of help from a pep talk to helping some one up. Even some thing big might need just a pat on the back and a small problem may need a year of therapy so that is why i believe in some small problems need the most help.
Some evidence that supports my theory is that i seems lie the man is resting or recovering from a fall or maybe something else. And just that makes his mind seem like he was jumping off a building and he needs the best of the best to rescue him aka superheroes. And the building is on fire so it also seems like the house represents his death and the super heroes his guardian angels or his life plus him jumping or not is him deciding on to live or die, go to the light go away from the light. But it isn't just applying to him anyone can crouch there and get the same message or some of life problem.
this connects to humanity because everyone has problems and some are bigger than others and some need more help to get rid of than others. And everyone has moments where the problem is a life and death situation and there is an involuntary choice where you live or die that instant. And it connects to humanity because this is a piece of art but it involves humans to give it its message.

The all-star that needs a spotlight
in this post the all-star mentor is Bashir
and a link to bashir's super fantastical extra spectacular blog
i think Bashir's blog really is focused on what he is talking about and doesn't go off topic. Also that he shares his ideas then asks question to the reader like they know they answer so then that gets the reader to find out. also how when he is observing and inferring it prepares the discussion for extending out side the book. he also has an extra paragraph which isn't just to help back there point his is a simpler explanation so it sticks with if you didn't get it the first time.

new lover and or new best friend
i believe that peeta will replace gale as katniss' best friend. i think this becasue in the book peeta is building a very well friendship with katniss in the games and katniss' love is becoming real. Some of my evidence comes from the last few pages when katniss is talking to peeta about how the love was for the games and how it wasnt and peeta asks how much of it was fake and she said she doesnt know. also when peeta was asleep katniss was going to go hunt and she kissed peeta for real and not for the games. and at another point when they where in the cave they were sharing life stories with each other and really connecting.
i see that katniss is really bonding and caring for peeta and i think katniss will really stick with peeta and sort of drift slowly away from gale. i think this not just because they were bonding so much in the games but after you come out of the games you change an example is haymitch. a champion of the games but a drunk because of it. so when katniss comes back she would be happy to see gale but might not b so close to him since she was away so long. Not just that but since katniss has been really trying to keep the star crossed lovers act up and it sort of is starting to become reality but in a very minor way.
in reality a lot of friendships become love and some also interfere with each other. not just that but people change over time and other people change so some people become more fond of each other or more distant. also more people enter your lives so other people are just moved to the side. sometimes it is a problem but sometimes it isnt because they are just used to it or were about to do the same thing. just overall people are replaced maybe for love maybe for connections or maybe because they just want to for unkown reasons.

The sequel to the giant whale that flies and
(((SPOILER ALERT)))
In Goliath by Scott Westerfeld we are brought back into the world where there is raging war happening between clanker machines and darwenist creature creations. We are back to where Alek the royal prince is back on the Leviathan which is a gigantic whale looking airship made up of thousands of other organisms. Along with Alek is his crew and the leviathan crew also with Alek's new best friend Dylan. But for now i will be writing about Dylan instead of Prince royal pants. In the book I think Scott Westerfeld's theme for Dylan was sort of an obvious one because he sort of said it in the first few pages but not just that but the way Dylan has to act. So what I believe the theme for Dylan is that: anything you see or believe might not be what you think it is.
In our case Alek believes and sees Dylan as the BOY that is best friends with him. While count Volger sees and knows Dylan is really a girl in disguise to be in the air force. The reasons why Alek dosen't notice this is because there are so many distractions around him he just doesnt focus on Dylan to notice it. Some of these distractions are the routes they are taking and how they affect him. Is he any use on the ship or just a waste of hydrogen. And what secrets are the commanding officers not sharing with the crew and Alek etc.
Now coming into reality there are so many things that aren't true and I would call them illusions. There are so many illusions around us some not so obvious then others and some are supposed to be intentional and some are just not. an example of one that is obvious are optical illusions and intentional illusions are magic tricks. but really illusions are the things people dont see or expect to see and believe what they are. A good example are secret agents they disguise them selves as a citizen or native and know one notices because know one observes some one so in detail to find there secrets. another reason they are an illusion is because they act as a regular native would so they can past as that native.
