Cheri...Review

Friday was a short period...
At the beginning of class Ms. H gave me 5 packages of sugar- those five packages were my five opportunities to speak during the class period... every time I spoke I had place a package on Lindsey's desk- I only used four...That means I have on in the bank!-ha. lol.

During class we talked about The Power and The Glory... Ms.H asked how reading this book was for each person- most people said it took a long time to get into. We talked about Maria making the bread for him-that he then used for confession- and that the lt. and the other men drank up all of the whiskey priest's wine- and he cried out of despair. (He covered his crying up with the fact he was drunk) We talked how all the hope in the world drains away- such as the wine drained away- out of the bottle and down the men's throats. Then we discussed how Padre Jose is a coward and he is selfish to ours eyes - but at the same time he is completely human and scared. He is scared to die and he cares what people think of him. Ms. H mentioned that we his weakness and coward ness and think he is bad, but the truth is we are scared of it because we see it in ourselves.
