Say No To Drugs
It was a cold drak night and Mark was walking down the street, he was with a new drug in his blood. It was a trong drug and maked you do things that you will never do if you didn't have this drug.
After walking fir a while he went into an alley and found a girl that was 21 years old. Mark sexuAlly harassed this woman, raped her and then killed her with a knife that he was caring that night.
He woke up next morning with someone knocking the door, Mark didn't remember anything so he opened the door right away and in a matter of seconds he was handcuffed and sorrounded by the police. They took him ti the court.
They arrived to the criminal court, there the prosecutor told all the case and brought a witness, an old lady, that saw everything. She exagerated the crime but Mark didn't knew this. The judge only nodded and played with his gavel.
The prosecutor stood up and gave all his arguments. Using pathos, logos and ethos.
It was turn of the defence but the only thing he could do was to loser the sentece against those powerful arguments from the prosecutor. Death penalty was his sentence.

Lyrics:
I woke up it was 7
I waited 'til 11
To figure out that no one would call
I think I got a lot of friends
But I don't hear from them
What's another night all alone
When you're spending every day on your own
And here it goes
I'm just a kid
And life is a nightmare
I'm just a kid
I know that it's not fair
Nobody cares 'cause I'm alone
And the world is
Having more fun then me
Tonight
And maybe when the night is dead
I'll crawl into my bed
I'm staring at these four walls again
I'll try to think about the last time
I had a good time
Everyone's got somewhere to go
And they're gonna leave me here on my own
And here it goes
I'm just a kid
And life is a nightmare
I'm just a kid
I know that it's not fair
Nobody cares
'cause I'm alone and the world is
Having more fun than me
What the hell is wrong with me
Don't fit in with anybody
How did this happen to me?
Wide awake I'm bored and
I can't fall asleep
And every night is the worst night ever
I'm just a kid
I'm just a kid
I'm just a kid (I'm just a kid)
Yeah, I'm just a kid (I'm just a kid)
I'm just a kid (I'm just a kid)
I'm just a kid
And life is a nightmare
I'm just a kid
I know that its not fair
Nobody cares
'cause I'm alone and the world is
Nobody wants to be alone in the world
I'm just a kid
And all life is a nightmare
I'm just a kid
I know that its not fair
Nobody cares 'cause I'm alone and the world is
Nobody wants to be alone in the world
Nobody cares 'cause I'm alone
And the world is
Having more fun than me
Tonight
I'm all alone
Tonight
Nobody cares
Tonight
'cause I'm just a kid tonight!

Summary Of This Week
Before this whole thing of modernism I knew who was Igor Stravinski, the russian compositor, he used atonalism and serialism to make all his music; I also knew who was Claude Debusy, french compositor, and what was modernism but only in music.
I learned how and when was modernism in art, architecture, and the definition. Beign different is what modernism is all about, such as Holden in the Catcher in the Rye, always trying to be different from the rest and making everyone look like phonies.
I'll need to review everything that has to do with the definition, I don't understand it very well, and I'll need also yo investigate a little more about The Catcher in the Rye and modernism, so I can make some new connections.

Letter for Jane Gallagher
Dear Jane,
How are you doing?, it's been a long time since the last time we met, there are many things that i want to tell you, so we can say that that is the main point of this letter.
First, I have been expelled from Pencey prep., those phonies gave me the axe, I failed also History with a very interesting essay of the Egyptians, I just told what I could and say that I knew I was flunking and all. I passed English, I'm a great writer I think. Later that day that phonie called Stradlater told me to write an essay for English for him, so I did but he didn't liked it and after some discussion he gave me a beat down and probably he broke my nose.
I have one big doubt, something happened between you and Stradlater? I'm very curious and i think that you don't have to be with that kinda' phonies, you may be asking, so with what kind of guys I should go out? Well, I think that with guys that are like me, you know, good guys and all, just saying.
Whenever you can we could hang out some time, you know, talk bout' how is being live and all. I seriously miss you, I miss those checkers matches I hope you can answer the faster you can, you know, faster better. Hopefully you can go with me to somewhere where we can talk. Jesus! It's late sorry if I didn't explain some things when we met I'll told you,
Wishing the best,
Holden

Reading Comprehension "The Catcher in the Rye"
1) How does the narrator feel?
He feels that he's not part of the society, he's not very comfortable with the school, his brother, his parents.
"... Now he's in Hollywood, D.B., being a prostitute..."
In this phrase Holden says that he's not very positive with the society and what is thi making to D.B., his brother. he says that he's being a prostitute, in other words he`s selling himself to the system. (THE LESSON OF THIS IS NEVER TRUST THE SYSTEM)
2)What does the conversation between Holden and Mr Spence symbolize?
Symbolizes what Holden thinks about his future
"...I feel some concern for my future, all right. Sure. Sure, I do. But not too much, I guess..."
This conversation with Mr Spencer made Holden think about his future, and old Spencer says that he will, very suspcious in my opinion, and Holden says that that answer made him depressed, he also says that sounds like he was going to die or something, suspicious....
