Puja's VERY Awesome Diablog: March 2009

http://gmspujas.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html

Thursday, March 26, 2009. Because for all those years, my Abba-all of us-believed. They let us in, and they let us believe that we belonged. That we could hope for a future here. That one day I could go to college and carry on. And then they took that hope away. They broke my father's heart. And they broke mine too."-page 152. Overall though, I think the book ended in a good way. It wasn't extremely realistic, but oh well. I really like blogging too! Tuesday, March 24, 2009. Sunday, March 22, 2009. I hav...

Puja's VERY Awesome Diablog: Blog #12-Chapter 16

Tuesday, March 24, 2009. Nadira again, tells her sister what she really thinks! That's not all that is important! She should be proud to be who she is and others should respect her for that. . Overall, I'm kind of glad the way things turned out between Aisha and Nadira. Nadira self-confidence was boosted and even though Aisha's was lowered, I think she will regain it soon. . March 24, 2009 at 5:48 PM. Awesome blog. I love the paragraph about the cliff building! I hope she regains her confidence soon too.

Puja's VERY Awesome Diablog: Blog #8-Chapter 11

Sunday, March 15, 2009. I wish I could just put a hand to her skin, stop her whirring inside." -page 93. When I read this, I was happy. Nadira wanted to help her sister, and she felt sorry for Aisha and all that she was going through. Aisha's breaking down right in front of Nadira. As Falcon pointed out in Samara's blog. Aisha gave up spending time with her friends so she could study. She wakes up in the middle of the night with bad dreams about her interview. She's pretty much just lost it! She may as w...

GMS Dan: Blurring

Ask Me No Questions So Awesome! Tuesday, February 24, 2009. Generation after generation the water and the land melt and blur; people move across borders that make no sense." (page 55). I really liked this sentence. I thought that the image of land and water melting was very pretty and poetic. It seems like this book is interested in the ideas of borders and how they change. February 24, 2009 at 8:54 AM. What a beautiful quote. I like the visual of water and land melting and blurring together.

http://gmscelesteh.blogspot.com/2009/03/bruises-show-like-dark-flowers.html

Ask Me More Questions/Tell Me More Lies. Monday, March 9, 2009. Bruises Show Like Dark Flowers. It's as if Aisha is finally saying what we're both afraid to imagine: Abba crouched in a cold dark cell. Abba sitting at some table with a ceiling lamp glaring down on his face. Are they badgering him with questions? Letting him sleep and bathe and pray? Beating him with a stick until the bruises show like dark flowers? Show like dark flowers. 9790;￡☂￡ϟ╬￡. March 10, 2009 at 8:34 PM. Good job with the visuals.
