Complications

It's getting pretty hard to keep up with my schoolwork and basketball. I have to go to study hour form 3:30 to 4:30 but I go over that time. Then I have basketball from 5:30 to 7:30. Then I go home, eat, and do more homework. The end of the quarter stresses me out because I have a lot of make up work. Christmas is also around the comer and I can't afford to buy presents, and neither can my mom and dad. This is why I don’t like Christmas. I can't wait till Christmas is over. Everyone is getting mad at me lately too, it’s annoying. I hope that next year can have a better start for me.

"The Lady, or The Tiger" Activity

The justice system in "The Lady or the Tiger"compared to our system in the U.S. is a unfair ruling because, if we were to serve justice by chance and not by the crime they commited and if they were really guilty or innocent. In the King's Arena someone could be innocent and accidently pick the wrong door, there for they would be wrongly accused and killed. The U.S. system is fair because the people are jugded by what they did with evidence and by many people called the jury. Almost never is there someone who is innocent sent to jail in our system. In the King's Arena ther must have been many innocent people killed.
