Missed Blogs

WEEK 12,The book I am reading right now is Indigosummer (Indigosummer, a German book) and I didn`t come that far yet.
2 Inferneces:

Smillia is an exchange student who feels a little lonely in the beginning but keeps saying to herself: "I am here, I will have fun and do the right thing"
+ I went through the same and totally feel her, between nesience and the will for adventures.
----------------------------------------
You should always do the best of what you have got and being on your own feed teaches you how to stop whining in difficult situations.

A group of Natives started riot against Smillas group but in fact they have their reasons why they do what they did.
+ Nothing what people do is without purpose, if you try to understand the people around you it will be easier to interact with them.
----------------------------------------
Smilla and her friends should try to talk to them so they can get this situation streight.

WEEK 13
I always used to read, since I learned it in school. It depents on the time how often I pick up a book. But the most important fact is that I need to find a book I am really interested in and that is not that easy all the time. Sometimes I could spend like hours in bookstores, because I usually judge a book by its cover, but when I read the back I lose the interest and look for another ones. So it takes a little until I even found a book.When I really get into a story its hard for me to stop, and when it is really good then the world on the pages seems to be as real as the world I live in.
When I was younger I already read books which are more with a meaning, message etc. then I stared to think so much about it  that I couldn`t sleep anymore when I read before I went to bed.
WEEK 14
I have to say that I really enjoyed the project, it`s something different besides normal homework and I would read anyway so I just put some thoughts down and it gathered together as a nice reading blog. We were very independent what I do appreciate,  but I think that some students might use that freedom and don`t really do the work because there is not really a control about the pupils work. Otherwise it is a nice idea in Junior class.
I will definitely proceed reading books, but in general I won`t change much of my reading habits I guess but one thing: read more english books!! I think I learned through that project that I just have to go through the book even so I don`t understand every word. It is just good for vocabulary and more understanding of the language. When I am back in Germany I will still read english books beside german ones.

Actually I am pretty confident with what I read and here is the list of books. It took sometimes a longer time because I had to read two or three times to understand the words or because I had to look words up:

1.Just in Case
2.The little prince
3. Into the wild
4. White Fang (started it)
5. Indigosommer
