Empire

I love empire because it pushes me to be successful. On the show the main characters Lucious and his ex wife Cookie,  started making music in their garage, with the drug money they made profit from. Little did they know that they would one day be big producers. Cookie was just released from jail for a bust, she did seventeen years for. Cookie went to jail for Lucious because they figured that by the time Cookie came out they would have the company. Which they did, but Cookie did not know that when she came Lucious would have already moved on with the "love of his life" Anikia and her son Hakeem would hate her for not being there when he grew up. The show got more interesting when Lucious killed Cookies first cousin Monkey. When this went down everyone began to realize how vicious and cold hearted Lucious was. In the show Lucious  and his son Jamal don't have a good relationship because he's gay and Lucious dosent approve of that, their relationship only revolves around  music. Lucious and his other son Andre have an okay realationship the only problem is isn't musicly involved. Hakeem and Lucious seem to have the best relationship, because Lucious often says Hakeem reminds him of himself when he was younger.

why i didnt pass the first time

You don't understand how it feels as a senior taking 10th grade classes. As of now I started to re-take my global 4 over for the 3rd time. Im the only senior in that class. Not only that I have a family member thats in her right grade in the class as well. I'm ashamed that i didn't pass this global the first time nor the third. Me and global just isnt a thing, I just hate social studies/history. Why do we need to know about our pass. The pass is in the pass for a reason let it stay where it is at. The worst thing about having to take the class over is I already passed my regents in this subject so all I need really is the credit. Instead of the teacher giving one big project to do and I just show my face for attendance and leave she wants me to actually sit in the class and take notes. I really just want her to give me the damn credit but I guess it don't work that way. Plus I could care less about what she is talking about... no disrespect. The good thing is that I don't have to write the essays because its not beneficial to me nor her. The moral of the story is don't fail a class or you would end up in my position.

shakespeare a midsummer nights dream

In class we are reading Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream, which is one of the worst books I was ever forced to read. The level of difficulty the vocabulary in this book is crazy. Not only I have to read a book I don't want too but now the book is to hard to understand what Shakespeare is talking about. The class have to do a cold read and then break down every line in our own words to even make sense of what Mr. Shakespeare is trying to express to the audience. The best part of the vocab. is the he can curse you out in his own kind of way. This way of writing is not very modernize. Maybe thats the reason I don't understand the words he put before me. Besides the misunderstandable words the plot isn't that bad. Because the vocab is hard it turns me all the way off of wanting to understand the actual plot of the book. There is a little love quadratic thing going on between these four people. My favorite character would be Helena. Helena, the lovesick young woman desperately in love with Demetrius, is perhaps the most fully drawn. Among the group of Athenian lovers, Helena is the one who thinks most about the nature of love which makes sense, given that at the beginning of the play she is left out of the love triangle involving Lysander, Hermia, and Demetrius.
