The stepparents and stepchildren!!

How are relationships between stepparents and stepchildren generally depicted in fiction or film? Do you have any experience with or knowledges, The positive aspects of these relationships?

The relationship between the stepparents and step children in films and fiction are really horable. For example, in cinderella,her mother was dead and her father had married a widow with two daughters. Her stepmother didn't like her one little bit. All her kind thoughts and loving touches were for her own daughters. they got everything they wanted dresses, shoes, delicious food, soft beds, and much more. But, for cinderellal, there was nothing at all. No dresses, only her stepsisters’ hand-me-downs. No lovely dishes, nothing but scraps. No rest and no comfort. She had to work hard all day. Only when evening came was she allowed to sit for a while by the fire. A dress arived and she was told a ball was coming but she did not even ask to go as for she know she was not allowed. The day of the ball she was home all alone and out of no where a fairy appeared and talked to her and told her to go to the ball and she asked how could she dressed as she was. The fairy wiggles her fingers and Cinderella found herself wearing the most beautiful dress she had ever seen. she went to the ball and the fairy said once the clock striked midnight everything will be gone. She went and had so much fun and then noticed the time and had to run away and lost her shoe with the prince.

He sent out a search to find her and he got to cinderellas house and the 3 step sisters tryed on the shoe and it did not fit and then cinderella tryed it on and it fit! Her stepmother said"That awful untidy girl simply cannot have been at the ball!"Tell the Prince he ought to marry one of my two daughters! Can't you see how ugly Cinderella is?. Suddenly the fairy appeared and waved her magic wand. In a flash, Cinderella appeared in a pretty dress, shining with youth and beauty. Her stepmother and stepsisters gaped at her in amazement. Cinderella married the prince and lived happily ever after.

In that story ( or movie) it is a prime example how bad fiction and films make stepparents and stepkids are. In real life its really not that bad. In real life ,Well for most people, Its hard but they arnt going to outcast one or the other as they are both your kids. Ya a lot of kids hate there step parents as they arnt your true parents. Thats kind of expected. I know of a few people that have the exact same thing going as in cinderella and or in hamlet. Hamlet did have it worse than any one though as he found out his stepdad(aka uncle) killed his real dad. Hamlet at that point had all rights to be pissed off about him mom to marrieing his uncle but she did not know he killed her husband.

In my life i have a lot of people i could tell you about with my knowledge and real life experiences. Th one that affected me the most is my aunt and uncle and my cusins. Ashlee and shawn love there dad larry. I dont remember why my aunt shelly and uncle larry got divorced but i know it did affect everyone in our family pretty bad. My aunt and uncle since have got married. Larrys wife is like a wicked witch of the west ( off wizerd of oz) and my aunt married an old lazy very rude guy. Now my family is Larry, Shelly, Ranae, Lewis, Shawn Ashlee,cody, courtney, and brandon. I loved larry he was my favorite and my aunt. My actually cusins hate lewis and renae. I dont blame them as they get treated liek crap by her and lewis makes them do everything for him as hes wont get off his butt and do anything.

With all the stuff my family has been threw and my friends as i know a few of them that has happend to them i feel bad for them. But my family is probable just as bad but where just all together. Its really sad. So if you have a family where nothing can be better. look at all those thats familys are broke up and or really bad and be great full your not down there with them cause when fmilys are liek that it doint just affect them it affects everyone around them and its bad.

The Great ones

King claudius states" madness in great ones must not unwatched go." How true is this on any age? What evidence can you find in recent news stories to supposrt this statement? How do societies keep checks and balances on their " great ones"?



"King claudius declares that he will send Hamlet to England, in the hope that a change of scenery might help him get over his troubles. Polonius agrees that this is a good idea, but he still believes that Hamlet’s agitation comes from loving Ophelia. He asks Claudius to send Hamlet to Gertrude’s chamber after the play, where Polonius can hide again and watch unseen; he hopes to learn whether Hamlet is really mad with love. Claudius agrees, saying that “madness in great ones” must be carefully watched."

Everything keeps changing in the society where everything has got bad. Even some one liking someone if your some one famous everyone knows everything about you. It got really pathetic. i really thing its stupid that peopel get told they cant see someone. If they like them they got all rights to be with them if they want to. I dont see why people these days are so weird about that.

Society had cameras and video recorders following them around. I think its so stupid they should be able to live a normal life just like everyone else cause they are normal people just like you and I are. Love can take you very many ways. You jsut have to follow your heart.

Im not sure what else to say as the book to me was very very confusing. All i know was hamlet is in love with Ophelia and no one understand why.

Thinker or a Doer?

Are you a thinker or a doer? How would you like to be different or would you like to be different?

At times I am a thinker but then again I can be a doer. Sports I am a doer. I just react by my gut feeling and trust that and don't think what could happen next. Softball I just do anything I can to stop the ball and run and slide and dive and just do it then after the fact I end up with scares and bruises.

At other times I'm a thinker with hunting and driving and much other tings I think before I do anything. With hunting you kind of have to. You don't want to be the person you read in the paper about killing someone out in the woods. You have to follow the laws and think before you react. There is times everyone will over think things and then its a ad thing as that will get you no place.

There has been plenty times I wish I thought before I just did something as it ended with me being hurt or something bad happening. Then there's times I'm glad I'm the way I am as if I wanted I wouldn't be who I am. Those are the hard things to try and say I want to be different. If I changed my self for one person I completely change my self for everyone else.

I like the way I am I just wish sometimes I did just do stuff before I thought about it as I have talked my self out of something I should not have passed up. If I could change me and be different the only thing id want to change would be not so much a doer and have a happy medium of thinking and doing.

REVENGE!!!!

This story is about a friend of mine. Ill call her Jill.

So Jill and I where really really close. We did everything together. well Jill's younger than me and she decided she was going to act like she was older than me and boss me around. I did not like this and told her to stop. So she wouldn't. So I just stoped talking to her. A few days went by and Jill came up to me and yelled at me telling how much of a crappy friend I was. I just said thank you and walked away.

A few weeks went by and I still wouldn't talk to Jill. She would just walk by and give me a dirty look. Well this who time I was plotting what I would do to get back at her fro all the drama and crap she has started with my other friends. After 3 weeks went by I had a plan.

My plan was to do the exact same thing she did to me back. So I started to do they same thing to her and she started to get mad at me and and started calling me names and I kept doing it for about a week. Then I called her up and said do you get why I keep doing this to you and she said no and started getting mad I just laughed at her and said and now you see why you have mad me mad and I stoped talking to you. I hated how you where treating me so I had to get me revenge and show you how it feels to have your best friend walk all over me. after that a few days went by and she came up to me and told me thanks she never knew how rude she was to people she cared about tell some one gave her a taste of what she was doing with us.
