MY CONNECTIONS WITH THE MOVIE AND THE ALCHEMIST

SO FAR THE MOVIE HAS BEEN INTERESTING AND FUNNY..SOME OF THE THINGS THEY HAVE IN COMMON IS THAT BOTH ARE OUTGOING AND WANT TO FIND OUT WHAT WILL HAPPEN NEXT... THEY LEARN THAT EVERYTHING CAN AND THERE IS TO FIND OUT BUT YOU JUST HAVE TO BELIEVE AND YOU CAN ACCOMPLISH WHAT THEY SET THEIR HEARTS TO...SOME OF THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN SANTIAGO AND EVERETT AND SANTIAGO IS THAT SANTIAGO IS MOSTLY IN IT FOR HIS PERSONAL LEGEND AND EVERETT WANTS TO GET MONEY AND BE FREE..BUT THERE IS A LOT OF DIFFERENT REASONS FOR WHY THERE IS MANY CONNECTIONS BETWEEN THEM...

ME AND SANTIAGO

I THINK THAT CARING FOR SOMEONE AND HAVING TO MAKE A DECISION WOULD REALLY HAVE TO BE VERY HARD.YOU MIGHT HAVE TO LISTEN TO WHAT THEY HAVE TO SAY AND THEN THEY MIGHT NOT AGREE WITH WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY.SO YOU HAVE TO BE ABLE TO UNDERSTAND BOTH SIDES AND SEE WHICH ONE WOULD BE THE BEST FOR BOTH PEOPLE.SO HAVING SOMEONE ELSE ON YOUR BACK AND HAVE TO MAKE A DECISION MIGHT BE DIFFICULT.

SYMBOLS OF THE ALCHEMIST

URIM:CURSES
THUMMIM:FAULTLESS
CARAVAN:TRAVELLERS JOURNEYING TOGETHER
OASIS:A WATERED FERTILE AREA IN A DESERT

ALL THESE WORDS MAKE SENSE WITH WHAT COELHO IS SAYING.ALL THIS MAKES SENSE AND FITS IN INTO THE STORY AND SANTIAGO.THE CARAVAN IS WHERE SANTIAGO IS TRAVELLING AND THEN HE THINKS HE PROBABLY FOUND OUT WHAT HIS PERSONAL LEGEND.

SANTIAGO AND THE BOOKS

BOOKS
THIS IMAGE RELATES TO THE ALCHEMIST BECAUSE SANTIAGO HAD BEGAN TO READ SOME BOOKS BY TRYING TO FIND WHAT ALCHEMY MEANT AND TRY TO LEARN SOMETHING NEW.SANTIAGO HAD LEARNED THAT THE WORLD HAD A SOUL.BUT THE ENGLISHMAN WASN'T SATISFIED BY WHAT HE HEARD.NOT ONLY DID HE NOT HEAR WHAT HE WANTED BUT HE SAW THAT SANTIAGO WASN'T ALL THAT IMPRESSED.SANTIAGO ALSO FELT THAT HE DIDN'T LEARN ANYTHING

THE ALCHEMIST

SANTIAGO HAS REALLY BEGAN TO CHANGE.HE BELIEVES IN HIS FATE AND NOW HE WANTS TO DISCOVER HIS PERSONAL LEGEND.SANTIAGO HAS LEARNED TO FOLLOW HIS PERSONAL LEGEND AND NOW HE KNOWS THAT IT WAS MEANT OT BE.SANTIAGO LEARNED THAT NOT ONLY DID HER HAVE TO GO FIND THE TREASURE BUT HE HAD TO DO IT ON HIS OWN.THEN ONCE HE DISCOVERED WHAT THE TREASURE WAS HE COULD GO BACK TO WAS HE LOVES WHICH ARE HIS SHEEP.HE NEEDS TO GO TO THE PYRAMIDS BUT HE WOULD NEED HELP AND GUIDANCE TO GET THERE.

MY JOURNAL OF MY INDEPENDENT READING BOOK

I THINK ANYONE CAN READ THIS BOOK.8 BALL CHICKS IS A BOOK THAT CAN GIVE YOU A LOT OF INFORMATION ABOUT GANGS.IT CAN INFORM YOU ABOUT THAT MANY RISKS OF GANG RELATED SITUATIONS.THE PERSON THAT I THINK WOULD BE MOST INTERESTED WITH THIS BOOK WOULD EITHER BE IN A GANG OR BE PRESSURED TO BE IN A GANG.ALSO MANY PARENTS WOULD HAVE TO READ THIS BOOK THAT WAY THEY KNOW WHAT KIND OF RISKS THEIR CHILDREN MIGHT BE IN.SO I THINK ANYONE CAN READ THIS BOOK,JUST AS LNOG AS THEY'RE OLDER THAT 13.

DEAR GINI SIKES

WELL I HAVE BEEN READING 8 BALL CHICKS FOR A WHILE NOW AND I'VE BEEN ENJOYING IT.I THOUGHT IT WAS INTERESTING WHEN SOME OF THE LEADERS OF THE GANG THOUGHT IT WAS SHOCKING TO FIND OUT THAT SOMEONE WANTED TO FIND AND WRITE A BOOK OF WHAT GANG MEMBERS DID AND THEY THOUGHT NOBODY WOULD WANT TO KNOW ANY THING ABOUT THEM.THE PERSON THAT REALLY SHOCKED ME WAS ALICIA BECAUSE I THOUGHT SHE WOULD OF BEEN IN DANGER OF DYING OR WOULD BE LOST TO DRUGS.NOT ONLY DID SHE GET HER GED BUT WAS NOW A NURSING AIDE .HOPEFULLY THEY GET THROUGH THOSE DIFFICULT TIMES AND ARE NOW GETTING HELP.BUT I HAVEN'T FINISHED THE BOOK BUT WICKED REALLY SHOCKED ME BECAUSE SHE WAS NOW ATTENDING COLLEGE.GINI YOU ARE BRAVE TO GO THROUGH EACH GANG AND ASK THEM QUESTIONS LIKE THOSE.I WOULD OF BEEN SCARED FOR MY LIFE BUT SOMEONE HAD TO TO THE HARD JOB.NOW I REALLY KNOW ABOUT WHAT GIRLS IN GANGS GO THROUGH AND THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE GUYS AND GIRLS.
