THE MOST CURIOUS THING

Trying to pro-ject Sabrina happy smile and her giving the thumbs up over a dead body is very dense. Having a psychologist to determine facial gesture is very dense. Sabrina had no remorse for the dead body, it was witty to her. Not thinking that it would come back to her as a federal charge. Al-Jamadi death should of been more focused on. The people that were their during the homicide should of been charged with his death. Instead of charging sabrina for evidence that was already covered by the government.

GRAFFITI

Shopping in Soho on Grand street, Friday afternoon. I noticed a book by Bansky. I was so eager to read through the book that I didn't notice the title. As I was skimming through the pages I noticed a phrase " we are always around". Reminded me of prof. Lennon when we had a discussion on graffiti. The phrase was a spoken language to were the graffiti artist can't be seen but expresses their feelings on gentrification.

cleaning up graffiti does not stop them from marking their territory. It's a part of their community!!! a place to they were born and raised. Having middle-class individuals come and take over their community, raising rent so high to were people have to live with one another is very astray.

HOUSE OF LEAVES II

When it comes to reading a variety of genres I can be very selfish. " House of Leaves" put me in a tight situation of giving up literature. Reading footnotes and turning the pages upside down has turned my body into a maze like the characters in the book. I found it quite interesting the way characters express their horrific outcomes by one phrase on the paper, leaving the rest blank. I wonder if this book has a connection with " The Most Curious Thing" and " Pillow man". Jimmy tried to warn himself that he should of listened to Zampano, if this book is so horrific and tourist like Zampano and Jimmy says, what happened to the reader? why didn't I freak out?

He is a fighter and brave individual, he helps to find out about this crazy maze with his disability as he saves Will and Holloway from a firefight but suffer from cold spells afterward, show a good effort of " everything is possible...but not certain".

VIDEO!!!

I decided to be original and stay on task of the book by posting a link of " House of Leaves". It will give me a visual perspective of how the house looks expanding into words, phrases and trying to put the pieces together on how this lead to Zampano's writing and death and Johnny becoming apart of this horrific chain that's going on. The house going into a maze, each door leading into a steep of mysterys. Going backward, forward, diagonal and vertically made we feel what these characters were going through as I was watching the video.

Repulsive Acts

I feel that reading the Pillowman is telling readers how repulsive acts can influence individuals to act out their behavior and be very impulsive. Yes, Micheal's did have a horrible childhood but it was his brother's writing that made him act out on killing these children the same way he wrote in his stories. Children can also tend to pick up things they see on television and video games, theirs a lot of violence. Wrestling would be a example with all of the fighting movements that kids act out on a everyday basis, a few years back a child died from role playing a move that he seen watching WWF. All of these negative acts fall into place. They make people wounder and think for them to hurt someone.

Pillowman

This book is insane, what am I learning from a person going around killing innocent children, Katurian is a writer of horrific stories of killing children, them dieing in agony for no reason from my understanding. It all came about when Katurian mom and dad would torture his emotional disturb brother Micheal. Katurian could never find out where the noise was coming from because his parents what lie to him that is was just a dream.

Yeah, those dreams were formed into stories that he wrote that soon his brother Micheal started to use to kill other children, better yet once Katurian found out that was not a dream and his parents were abusing his autistic brother he soon killed both of them by suffocating them in their sleep.


Micheal's childhood with his parents reflected on his writing and also the writing reflected on Micheal's repulsive behavior of killing those children.

Pillowman VS. Jennifer Hudson Tragedy

While reading the Pillow man, it made sense of real life events that happen in society today. Katurian writing all horrific stories of children dieing in agony by people being devious made me think of the tragic killing of Oscar Award Winning Jennifer Hudson nephew Julian King, who they found dead in a white SUV. Their were other members of Jennifer family who had died. Her mom and brother. Julian was only seven years old, an innocent individual that has no clue of what's going on...what is this world coming too? why kill a child?
