Naruto Vol.1 The Tests Of The Ninja Journal Entry 3

Issue 3 Enter Sasuke (85-107) It starts Naruto sitting in the Ninja Academy ready to be put into a three man squad of genin, like himself. A fellow graduate ninja comes and ask Naruto why he showed since it is only for students who have graduated. Naruto would say that he did graduate as he points to his headband. Then we are introduced to Sakura Haruno, a pink haired kunoichi (female ninja) who has a quick temper, a girl that Naruto has a crush on. When Naruto thinks that she is saying hi to him and says hi she says to move it so she could sit next to the guy next to Naruto, Sasuke Uchiha. Sasuke Uchiha is a brooding loner student who every girl likes, including Sakura, and who Naruto hates because Sasuke is better than him in every way and thinks he's better than everyone. Naruto then jumps on his desk and stares down Sasuke while all the girls, who all have a crush on Sasuke, are telling Sasuke to beat him up and telling Naruto to get away from Sasuke. As they stare down, a student who was sitting in front of Sasuke accidently pushes Naruto forward where he & Sasuke accidently kiss. All the girls get mad because Naruto ended up being Sasuke's first kiss instead of any of them so all the girls, including Sakura, beat Naruto to a pulp. Iruka then tells everyone to sit down as he announces the squads. For Team 7 he announces Naruto, Sakura (in which Naruto says hooray & Sakura sulks in sadness) and Sasuke (in which Sakura says hooray and Naruto sulks in sadness). Naruto then asks why he, a great ninja, was put with a worthless excuse of one like Sasuke. Iruka explained that they in order to balance out the teams he put the best student, Sasuke, with the worst student, Naruto. Later on, Naruto then does a foolish move where he sneak attacks Sasuke while he's eating lunch in his apartment, but Sasuke would end up leaving unscathed. It then cuts to Sakura sitting on a bench hoping that Sasuke would notice her eventually then Sasuke would appear looking interested in Sakura. He then asks her what she thinks of Naruto saying that Naruto is very annoying and always gets in the way and says that all she thinks about is Sasuke and only wants to be with Sasuke and as she moves in to kiss him it cuts to Sasuke's apartment where it shows the real Sasuke all tied up. Before Sakura could kiss this impostor Sasuke, he would clench his stomach with a worried look in his face and leaves to go to the bathroom. In the bathroom, the impostor Sasuke would reveal himself to be Naruto as he planned to attack Sasuke, turn into him, and find out how Sakura feels about him. As he comes out of the bathroom, Naruto decides that he should try to make Sakura hate Sasuke. Back to where Sakura was at, the real Sasuke appears and Sakura calls out to him so they could finish what they started. Sasuke where ask her where Naruto is at. Sakura says that they should stop talking about Naruto because he ruins everything and gets in the way of things who Sakura blames it on how he was brought up without parents. As she explains how having no family makes people selfish and that if she did the things that Naruto does she would get grounded. Sasuke appears to be getting mad and says that it also makes you lonely and that getting scolded by your parents doesn't even compare and says that "you make me sick" to Sakura. After Naruto leaves the bathroom he gets confronted by Sasuke who says that a simple rope technique can't keep a good ninja down and that he should keep that in mind. It then cuts to Naruto's apartment where the Third Hokage is showing Kakashi Hatake one of his new student's apartment. Kakashi then picks up an expired carton of milk that is empty and states that anyone who drinks this would be in the bathroom for days. The Third Hokage then entrusts the responsibility of training Team 7 to him and wishes him luck.

A Brief History Of Time: Journal Entry 9

Chapter 9 (Pg 147-157) The main focus of this chapter of the book is about the Three Arrows of Time: the thermodynamic arrow of time, the psychological arrow of time, and the cosmological arrow of time. The thermodynamic arrow of time is the direction in which the state of chaos in the universe increases. The psychological arrow of time is the direction in which we feel time pass. And the cosmological arrow of time is the direction in which the universe is getting bigger not smaller. The first arrow of the time, thermodynamic arrow, is based off the second law of thermodynamics in which there are disordered states then ordered ones. Like for example in a jigsaw puzzle there is only one correct arrangement while there are infinite amounts of incorrect arrangements. It explains that if all arrows are pointing in the same it would make sense that there would be someone to say why disorder increase as time goes by in which the universe is expanding?

Naruto Vol.1 The Tests Of Ninja Journal Entry 2

Issue 2 Konohamaru (Pg 61-83) It starts with Naruto taking a picture for his ninja id. While the photographer asks if Naruto really wants to take the picture the way he has his face. Naruto says yeah and to just do it already. It then shows Naruto's picture that shows him with clown make up with his hand against the camera. When he submits it to the Third Hokage (Hiruzen Sarutobi),  the Third asks him to do it again because that picture is a disgrace. Then Naruto would hear the door open and would see Konohamaru, The Third Hokage's 8 year old grandson, come in and try to attack the Hokage, but he would trip on his long scarf. Konohamaru's personal trainer Ebisu Sensei would come in relieved saying as that he finally found him as if he ran away. Konohamaru would then blame Naruto for tripping him in which Naruto would grab him by the shirt and would say that he tripped himself. Ebisu Sensei would tell Naruto to put him down while Konohamaru says that Naruto can't hit him since he is the Hokage's grandson. After waiting a little bit to think about it, Naruto would hit him across the head saying that "Like I care, stupid!" Afterwards, Konohamaru would start secretly following Naruto until Naruto quickly realized that he was following him due to Konohamaru's pathetic disguises. Konohamaru says that he is following Naruto because he wants to be his apprentice and to learn the sexy jutsu that Naruto used on the Third Hokage (not shown in the manga). Later Ebisu would find out that Konohamaru is off doing shenanigans from the Hokage and would quickly run off to go search for him. Back to Konohamaru & Naruto, Konohamaru attempts to do the sexy jutsu, but fails. Naruto would ask Konohamaru what's with him trying to attack the Hokage, or by how Naruto calls him "the old man". Konohamaru would explain that the Hokage named him after the ancient name of the village, but every citizen in the village calls him by Honorable Grandson. And he says it will be different once he becomes Hokage. Naruto would then explain that no one can become Hokage over night you need to earn it and be respected by everyone in the village and that if Konohamaru really wants to become Hokage he'll have to defeat him first in battle. Then it cuts to Iruka Sensei, who is still healing from his injuries during the fight with Mizuki, having a conversation with the Hokage about Naruto. The Hokage would say that Naruto's dream is almost an impossible one due to the Nine Tails Demon Fox Spirit sealed inside of him and says that this knowledge is kept secret from all the other younglings of the village and hopes that the villagers will stop treating Naruto the way they due. It cuts back to Ebisu finding Naruto & Konohamaru and trying to take Konohamaru back from him. Naruto would then use the Shadow Clone Jutsu to summon up a dozen of clones to fight Ebisu. Ebisu would say that he is a jonin, an elite ninja, and that a simple clone jutsu won't defeat him. Naruto & all his clones would then use the sexy jutsu to turn into a bunch of naked girls to freak Ebisu sensei so bad that he was knocked out cold. Naruto would then call it his Harem Jutsu. Naruto would then talk with Konohamaru, who says that he wants to become Hokage immediatly, saying that the Hokage is the most respected person in the village and that there are no short cuts to becoming Hokage. Konohamaru would then say that he's done being Naruto's apprentice and that from now on they are rivals, then he would laugh and leave. The Third Hokage would then be shown to have been watching all the events that had transpired through a crystal ball and would smile at the fact that Naruto is becoming a better ninja everyday and is on the fast track to becoming one of the best ninja in the entire village.

Animorphs The Invasion: Final Journal Entry

Chapters 17-27 (Pg 119-184) It starts with Jake telling the others about the secret entrance to the Yeerk Pool in the janitor's closet. On a unrelated note, there have been signs of a possible romantic relationship between Tobias & Rachel seeing as when Tobias that nobody would care he was destroyed by the Yeerks, Rachel would then blurt out that she would. Then there was another scene where Tobias, in red tailed hawk form, perched on Rachel's shoulder and Rachel rubbed her head against him. Back to the story, Cassie would take the group to a zoo where her mom works to acquire new morphs. Jake would manage to get a Tiger Morph and Marco would manage to get a Gorilla Morph. The Next day, the Animorphs, a name Marco came up with for their group, went to school later that night to try to free the people from the Yeerks at the yeerk pool. They realize that Cassie is not there with them and when they get into the school they see the controllers taking Cassie to the Yeerk Pool. They discovered, through the entrance in the janitor's closet, an underground city that the Yeerks built for their Yeerk pool. As they headed down the stairs they separated, Jake & Marco going one way, Rachel going another, and Tobias checking from the ceiling. Marco would tell Jake to make sure the Yeerks don't get him. The Hork-Bajirs would find them behind a crate and attempted to capture them until Rachel morphed into an elephant and stomped all the Hork-Bajirs. Jake & Marco would then morph into a tiger and gorilla, respectively, where they managed to save Cassie & Tom. However, Visser 3 would appear and would transform into his monster form, that we read earlier in the book,  and managed to recapture everyone they saved except for this one girl that Cassie saved by transforming into a horse and carried her the way up. The Animorphs managed to escape but with only one person saved and with Tom being recaptured. The Next Day, Tobias would visit Jake in his red tailed hawk form and would tell him that when Visser 3 transformed he hid a cavern until it was all over. Tobias would then say that it took over 2 hours and that he is stuck in his red tailed hawk form. Tobias would tell a saddened Jake that until the Andalites come to help them, they will fight!

Animorphs The Invasion: Journal Entry 3

Chapters 11-16 (Pg 77-118) Today, I read off where we left off with the cops showing up at Cassie's ranch where they talk to the group if they saw the kids at the construction site the other night. Jake then realized somehow that the cops where controllers (people who were controlled by the Yeerks) when they invited them to The Sharing meeting later that night. The group would decide to go after Tobias, in red tailed hawk form, found out that The Sharing is just a group made up by Yeerks trying to recruit more people so they could take over their bodies. They all went to The Sharing meeting, which was at the beach, so they could find the yeerk pool. At first, there was a party and games going on until a meeting with the full members was about to commence. Jake decided to morph into to dog form to try to get some information where he found out that Visser Three's host is their assistant principal Mr. Chapman. After Jake couldn't control his dog urges, Cassie had to go in unmorphed to get him out of there. During the meeting, Jake would overhear Tom saying that Jake should be brought in or killed if he doesn't. It was once he said that, that he accepted the fact that his brother was gone now and the Yeerk was in control. The next day, Jake would learn a new transformation, a lizard, where he would follow Mr. Chapman into the janitor closet where he would discover an entrance into the Yeerk Pool.

A Brief History Of Time: Journal Entry 8

Chapter 8 (Pg 119-145) Today I started a new chapter that starts with Stephan Hawking talking about how after he did research on black holes he started doing research on the origin and fate of the universe. So far he talks about the origin of the universe where once the big bang happened the temperature of the universe decreased up to where it stopped producing helium and other elements and started expanding (the temperature still kept decreasing). I read about how the earth was when it was initially created and that it was very hot with no atmosphere. And once there was an atmosphere it was very poisonous due to being made up of toxic gases like hydrogen sulfide. Thankfully the first primitive forms of life released oxygen into the air and changed the atmosphere to the one we have today. This allowed the creation of much higher forms of life like fish, mammals, reptiles, and humans. I read about the strong & the weak anthropic principle which is “how you see the universe the way it is because of how you exist”. It also talks about whether there is other life out there in the universe, if there was an initial configuration for the universe on how it started, and whether the universe is spatially infinite.

A Brief History Of Time: Journal Entry 7

Chapter 7 (Pg 103-117) Today, I started a new chapter that starts with Stephan Hawking talking about how he first got into studying and researching black holes. Then he talks about how light rays can never escape the event horizon and that lies right on the edge of it. Then he talks about entropy, the behavior of a physical quantity, and second law of thermodynamics. He mentions how Jacob Bekenstein suggested that the area of the event horizon was a measure of entropy of the black hole. He talks about how Jacob’s suggestion doesn't violate the second law of thermodynamics, but he noticed a fatal flaw in which that if a black hole has entropy, it must have a temperature. Today, I read about if and how rotating black holes can create and emit particles. Then he talks about how one part of a particle/antiparticle pair will have positive energy while the other will have negative energy. Today I learned that once a black hole’s mass gets incredulously small it disappears in a final burst of emission, the production and discharge of something, especially gas or radiation. It’s said that the gamma rays of a black hole is very useful to the earth since it can power more than 5 power stations. Then he says that once the black hole gets small due to a decreasing mass, it becomes white hot, proving that black holes aren't really black!

A Brief History Of Time: Journal Entry 6

Chapter 6 (Pg 83-101) Today, I read about two theories on light: one that states that light is composed of particles and the other states that light is composed of waves. I also read about the life cycle of stars, which is needed to understand in order to how black holes are formed. I read about how a black hole is formed. A black hole is formed due to the gravitational collapse of star in which it shrinks to critical radius where the gravitational field becomes so strong that nothing escapes. Today, I read about how Stephan Hawking & Roger Penrose’s they did in 1965 & 1970 inspired Penrose to create the cosmic censorship hypothesis, a theory that suggests singularities made by a gravitational collapse occur only in places like a black hole. I learned that the event horizon is a path in space-time where nothing can escape; it’s also like a gate to the black hole. Hawking then talks about how in 1967 a Canadian scientist Werner Israel revolutionized the study of black holes by showing that according to general relativity non rotating black holes must be very simple in that they were perfectly spherical, their size depended on their mass, and any two black holes with the same mass were identical. And I learned that to find the number of “primordial” black holes depends on the conditions in the early universe and that if we find that number and how much the number has decreased since then, we can learn about how the universe was in its early stages. 
 

A Brief History Of Time: Journal Entry 5

Chapter 5 (Pg 65-81) In this chapter, Stephan Hawking talks about Aristotle and his beliefs on how the world is made of Fire, Water, Earth, Air and that matter is continuous, but some Greeks like Democritus disagreed. This argument continued for centuries until Einstein wrote a paper on the Brownian motion, the effect of atoms of liquids colliding with dust particles. I read about the discoveries of the election, proton, neutron and the entire structure of the atom. I learned about quarks (the particles that make up a proton, neutron, & electron), a positron, an anti-electron, and that every particle has an antiparticle. I also read about how in quantum mechanics the forces or interactions of matter particles are carried by particles of an integer spin 0, 1, or 2, the three of four categories of force carrying particles (gravity, weak nuclear force, & electromagnetic force), the Weinberg-Salem Theory (a theory that's about weak nucler force), and the fourth force carrying particle strong nuclear force, I learned that confinement prevents you from seeing an isolated quark or gluon. I read about whether a proton or neutron can decay (but they can't since they live or function for more than 1 with thirty zeros after it years. I also read about how people believed that the law of physics obeyed the symmetries C, that the laws are the same for particles & antiparticles, T, that if you reverse the direction of motion in particles & antiparticles the system should go back to what it was at earlier times, & P, that the laws are the same for any situation and its mirror image. At the end he starts talking about Black Holes, which is the center of focus for the next chapter. 

A Brief History Of Time: Journal Entry 4

Chapter 4 (Pg 55-63) In this chapter, Hawking starts to talk about the uncertainty principle created Werner Heisenberg. The uncertainty principle, as also stated in Wikipedia, is any variety of mathematical inequalities asserting a fundamental limit to the precision with which certain pairs of physical properties of a particle known as complementary varibales, such as position x and momemtum p, can be known simultaneously. I also read about Max Planck's Quantum Hypothesis. It's the theory that explains how light behaves as if it was composed of particles that can be emitted or absorbed in only packets or quanta, and interference between particles. I read about quantum mechanics (not in full detail though), the sum over histories, and a nice way of seeing the wave/particle duality.

Animorphs The Invasion: Journal Entry 2

Chapters 5-10 (Pg 32-76) It continues off with Visser Three sending his slaves the Hork-Bajirs & the Taxxons, their allies, to look for the humans, but they end up finding the Andalite. The Humans watch by as Visser Three transforms into this colossal being that kills the Andalite by eating him alive. The kids look on sad and depressed as they just met the Andalite and he just died right in front of him. They end escaping the wrath of Visser Three and all of his minions. The Next Day, Tobias stops by Jake's house to show him that he could morph into Dude, his cat. Tobias's troubled family life is revealed as that he never knew his father, his mother passed away, and he is traded back in forth between his aunt and uncle who hate each other. Jake can't believe that Tobias transformed and he would get convinced by Tobias to transform in Homer, his dog. Tobias & Jake realize that when they transform half their brain is human and the other half is the animal they transformed into. Jake decides to hold a meeting between everyone (Rachel, Tobias, Cassie, Marco, & himself) at Cassie's farm. Jake would tell us that he used to be close to his older brother Tom until he joined The Sharing, a club, where he wasn't acting like himself like how he didn't care that Jake didn't make the basketball team (Tom is really into basketball) and tells Jake that he quit the team. It was all of this that made Jake suspect that Tom is a Human Controller. At Cassie's farm two things are revealed. One, Cassie can transform into a horse without her clothes being destroyed (When Tobias & Jake transformed they ended naked after since it destroyed their clothes). Two, in a newspaper it says that cops are looking for the teenagers who caused a rucus at the construction site last night. As they started getting worried that they can't trust anyone else besides the five of them the cops arrive.

Naruto Vol.1 The Tests Of The Ninja: Journal Entry 1

Issue 1 Uzumaki Naruto (Pg 1-59) Today I started volume 1 of one of the most popular manga in Japan, Naruto. It takes place in Konohagukure a.k.a the Hidden Leaf Village. First it explains a incident that happened 12 years prior to the book about how a demon fox attacked the fox. It explains how the Fourth Hokage, leader of the village, saved everyone by sealing away the fox spirit into a baby. 12 years later it shows Naruto Uzumaki, a prankster who is a ninja in training, defaming the faces of the  4 Hokages, whose faces were carved onto the side of a mountain. Naruto does these pranks to receive attention because everyone in the village ignores him and despises him for an unknown reason. At the Academy, where they teach young lings to become full fledged ninjas,  Iruka Sensei gives his students, including Naruto, their last test before the final test to graduate and that test is to be able to do the Transform Technique. When it is Naruto's turn he transforms into naked girl in which he calls his Sexy Jutsu, but then Iruka yells and gets mad because he was supposed to transform into Iruka. Iruka then has Naruto clean up his mess from earlier when he defaced the faces of the 4 Hokages, Naruto says he doesn't care because it is not like he has a family to go home to because he is an orphan. Iruka then decided to take out Naruto to eat Ramen, Naruto's favorite food. During the final test the students are supposed to do the Shadow Clone Technique where when Naruto summons up his clone it's very bad and fails. Then it shows him sitting on a swing watching all the graduating kids with their parents. Then Mizuki, a fellow ninja of the leaf, felt bad about Naruto and tried to convince Iruka to give him a headband as a symbol of becoming a ninja, but Iruka would say no. Later that day, Mizuki went to Naruto and told him about this scroll the First Hokage sealed away due to all of the most powerful jutsus in the world. Later that night, Mizuki would tell Iruka that Naruto had stolen the scroll and left. The Third Hokage would then send out every avaible ninja to go after Naruto. Then after some searching, Iruka would find Naruto in the forest where Naruto, who is happy to see Iruka, tells him that he has been practicing the first jutsu in the scroll, which is the Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu. Iruka would ask Naruto how he got the scroll where he would tell Iruka that Mizuki told him where the scroll was and that it would help him pass the academy. Mizuki would appear and would proclaim his intent to use the scroll and become the greatest shinobi of all time. Iruka & Mizuki would then have a fight. During the fight, Mizuki would reveal a shocking revelation that Naruto was the baby the Fourth Hokage sealed the demon fox spirit into and that he was the demon fox. Shocked by this, Naruto would run off leading to Iruka & Mizuki to go after Naruto where they would have another scuffle. It was during this fight that Iruka would get stabbed in the back, not fatally, by one of Mizuki's big shuriken while trying to protect Naruto. Naruto enraged, saying that if he ever hurt his sensei he would kill him, would use the Multi Shadow Clone Technique where he summoned up hundreds of clones who would beat down Mizuki, not to death though. The next day still in the forest, Iruka would put his headband on Naruto's head and would say "You graduated you are now a full fledged ninja". Very excited, Naruto would give Iruka a huge hug knocking him to the ground and then asking Iruka if they can celebrate by eating at a Ramen shop in which Iruka argees.

A Brief History Of Time: Journal Entry 3

Chapter 3 (Pg 37-54) Today I read about the revolutionary discovery about how the universe isn't static and that it’s actually expanding and getting bigger. Two important people in this discovery were Edwin Hubble & Alexander Friedmann. I also read about stars, wavelengths, the idea of other galaxies in the universe, and I learned about the Doppler Effect. The Doppler Effect is the change of the frequency of a wave for someone who is moving relative to the source. I read about whether our universe is finite or infinite based off a model found by Friedmann and two other models. There was a short story about two American physicists discovering a sound coming from outside the atmosphere and they would get a Nobel Prize out of it despite two other physicists who also discovered the sound. I learned that our universe is expanding 5 to 10% ever thousand million years. of the wave. Then we revisited the argument on if the universe had a big bang or not and Stephen Hawking started to talk about how he was trying to get his PH.D despite having ALS. Stephen Hawking talked about how he was trying to prove that there must be a singularity only if the universe was expanding fast enough to avoid collapsing again. He then wrote a paper with Roger Penrose that finally proved that there must have been a big bang to start the beginning of the universe. 

A Brief History Of Time: Journal Entry 2

Chapter 2 (Pg 15-35) Today, I started a new chapter about Space & Time. He talked about the theories of Galileo, Aristotle, & Newton.  He said that each of them either disproved the other’s theories or added on to it (Galileo on Aristotle, Newton on Galileo & Aristotle). He stated that “The big difference between the ideas of Aristotle and those of Galileo & Newton is that Aristotle believed in a preferred state of rest, in which any body would take up if it were not driven by some force or impulse.” It also talked about the lack of absolute space and Newton on lack of absolute space and Newton & Aristotle on absolute time. And he talks about the speed of light, ether, and how Einstein disagreed with the idea of ether and that it is unnecessary. I read about Einstein’s theory of relativity, how the speed of light is measured, and four coordinates of an event that specify its position in the four dimensional space. I read about how the speed of light should be the same as the speed of the source. I also read about how Einstein’s general theory of relativity came to be and what it is. I also learned what a geodesic is. I learned about the twins paradox on how if one twin leaves on top of a mountain and the other lives at sea level, one twin will age faster than the other. Also, I read about light rays & light deflection. I also learned that with this knowledge on space and time we can have a better understanding of the universe. And I read that Einstein’s general theory of relativity implies that our universe has a beginning and, unfortunately, an end.

Animorphs The Invasion: Journal Entry 1

Chapters 1-3 (Pg 1-31) Today I started the book Animorphs by K.A. Applegate. It starts with the main character Jake explaining that he cannot tell us the readers about the whereabouts his at because he is worried that "something" will them. He then starts telling about this one night where after a night of bowling with his best friend Marco, he, Marco, his cousin Rachel, his friend Cassie who he kind of has a crush on, and Tobias, his friend who admires Jake because he stopped two kids from giving him a swirly, encounter a alien. This alien known as an Andalite tells them that other aliens are on this planet and they want to destroy the human race. Those aliens are known as the Yeerks, aliens who don't have an actual body but have host bodies in humans. The Andalite tells them that he is dying and that he decides to put the fate of the human race in their hands by giving them a special power only exclusive to Andalites, the ability to morph into any animal. As he is done giving them their powers Visser 3, the leader of the Yeerks who also has the ability to morph, arrives on the scene causing the Andalite to tell them to run and warn people of the Yeerks before it is too late.

A Brief History Of Time: Journal Entry 1

Chapter 1 (Pg 1-14) Today, I began my book A Brief History of Time by Stephan Hawking. He talked about the earth’s shape and why it’s round and not flat by using information from a book written by Aristotle. I got to read about the theories on where the solar system was centered around, Isaac Newton’s theory on Gravity and how it affects the universe, and whether not the universe had a beginning or if the universe had just already existed. It included work from famous people like Galileo Galilee, Isaac Newton, Johann Kepler, & Aristotle. I read about the history of theories, arguments, & theses about whether the universe had a beginning or if it was already there. Then Stephan Hawking was talking about what makes a good theory by using Newton’s theory of gravity and Einstein’s theory of relativity as examples. I also read about a time in 1929 when Edward Hubble comes up with the theory of the Big Bang. I also read about relativity & quantum mechanics and how there is yet to be a combination of the two theories (the quantum theory of gravity). And that “our goal, of desiring knowledge, is nothing less than the description of the universe that we live in. 

Perks Of Being A Wallflower: Final Journal Entry

(Pg 183-213) Today, it started on the day before Graduation Day, where Charlie's brother comes back from college to see his sister graduate. Charlie brings up how he met a sports newscaster at the park where he talked about his brother which made his brother & his dad happy. Then, Charlie and his entire family go to the graduation to see Charlie's sister, Sam, Patrick, Alice, Mary Elizabeth, & Brad graduate. After the graduation, Charlie would get a call from Sam to go to a dance club to meet up, but Charlie's dad told him that he couldn't leave until his relatives left. After all of his relatives left, Charlie would meet up with all of his friends (especially Sam & Patrick) at the dance club where they left to a party at Sam & Patrick's house. The party kept going until it was just Sam & Charlie. They would go to Sam's room where Sam would get mad at him about how he was never himself and that he was always a shoulder to cry on who just listens instead of an actual friend who helps his friends during hard troubles and looks out for himself too instead of putting his friends before him. Then, Charlie would kiss Sam, who would kiss him back, and then things would start to escalate fast until Sam touched Charlie's thigh which made him pause for a second letting Sam think that he wasn't ready yet ending the night. The Next Day, Charlie would say his goodbye to Sam where they promised to call each other when ever they were feeling bad. Afterwards, Charlie would start feel bad & panicky, just like the night before, things got so bad that he ended up in a hospital for 2 months. Then, it was revealed that Aunt Helen used to molest Charlie when he was younger. During his time in the hospital, Charlie would get many visitors who tried to cheer him up. After he was released from the hospital, Charlie got a call from Sam where she said that she was gonna pick him up in her pick up truck to go through the tunnel with Patrick and her. Then, Charlie would get in the trunk, while the truck was still moving, where he would lift his arms in the air where he would feel "infinite". Then Charlie would state that this might be his last letter so he promised that he would always be fine and that when ever he wasn't he would soon be ok and hopes for the thing for who ever is reading the letters.

Perks Of Being A Wallflower: Journal Entry 6

(Pg 149-182) Today was a big one. It started with Brad & Patrick breaking up after getting into a fight at lunch because of Brad ignoring him and calling him the f word. Then a fight broke out between those two until Brad's football buddies joined in and started beating on Patrick. It kept going until Charlie came in and beat up Brad and his buddies and gave Brad a serious warning. Because of the fight, Patrick would get suspended & Charlie, Brad, & Brad's buddies would get detention. After Detention, Sam would pick up Charlie where they made up as friends and then told Charlie to make up with Mary Elizabeth and to be friends again, which they did. After this, Charlie would hang out with Patrick more often because Patrick was sad over Brad and needed company.And every time they hang out Patrick would kiss Charlie, who would let him because that's what friends do apparently. This would soon stop after Patrick got better. Charlie would also start getting sad after realizing that his sister and all his friends would be leaving for college soon, especially Sam who's leaving early for a summer program. Sooner or later it would be time for the Senior prom where Sam & Craig would break up, at an after party, after Craig admitted to cheating on Sam numerous times. One day later, Charlie would have breakfast with Bill and his girlfriend where Bill would tell Charlie that when ever he wanted to ask questions about books he can come to him because they're friends, then Charlie would start crying and he would call him the best teacher he ever had then he got hugged by Bill's girlfriend and he get a handshake from Bill and went home. I have no predictions this time.

Perks Of Being A Wallflower: Journal Entry 5

(Pg 117-149) Today it started with Charlie and his sister at the at the clinic where two things happen: Charlie's sister catches him smoking and she tells him that she's not pregnant. They both agree not to tell their parents about it because they would be mad at both of them. One day later, Charlie's sister tells him that she broke up with her secret boyfriend. Then it talks about how Charlie goes on his second date with Mary Elizabeth where they become an official couple. Afterwards, Charlie realized that he really doesn't like Mary Elizabeth in that way, and he's been trying to must up the courage to break up with her. Then came one night when everybody played Truth or Dare. Everything was fine until Charlie was dared to kiss the prettiest girl in the room. Instead of doing the smart thing and kiss his girlfriend Mary Elizabeth, he instead kisses Sam causing the room to go silent and leading Patrick to take Charlie outside. He explains to Charlie that he shouldn't be around anymore at least until the whole thing blows over, in which Charlie reluctantly agreed. I predict that Sam will forgive him, but that Mary Elizabeth won't.
