1. How do Ellie and Fi feel as they are leaving the scene on their motorbikes? Are these realistic feelings? They felt proud of themselves saving their hometown, but they think the war is not over yet...

TWTWB - Chapter 17-20 Questions

In this week, I am going to work on questions through 3 chapters of TWTWB


Chapter 17-20

Q1. Why does Ellie feel uncomfortable with Chris bringing cigarettes and alcohol into Hell?
       It made her reflect on the laws of the land making her worried about breaking the laws and rules...
Q2. What is meant by a "clean war"? Why are the invaders so intent on having a "clean war"?
       To me, clean war is to prevent killing someone or having a fair war between two countries.
Q3. What happened to the soldiers involved in the lawnmower incident, according to Robyn? How           does this make Ellie feel?
       According to Robyn, two of them died and two of the people they ran over, Ellie felt giddy about it.
Q4. Why do you think prisoners are sent to clean up the houses around town?
       To make the town look so tidy.
Q5. What makes Ellie think soldiers walking past them are professionals?
       Because most of the soldiers they ran against are young and not trained.
Q6. What are some clues that the group is starting to think 'more like soldiers'?
       The way they plan saving their hometown is like defending a headquarter of some soldiers or I dunno.
Q7. Why is Ellie nervous about being paired with Fi? Were her concerns about Fi realised? Explain.
       Probably because Ellie has a liking on Homer which is Fi also has a liking on him, but Ellie already           has a guy which is Lee.
Q8. What is true courage according to Ellie?
        Her friends...? 
Q9. What problems do Fi and Ellie encounter on their mission to bring the tanker to the appropriate place under the bridge? How do they deal with these problems?     
       Invaders were guarding the bridge making it difficult to bring the tanker under the bridge, they dealt           with it by releasing many cattles into the bridge to make the invaders avoid getting smash, then                   somehow get the tanker under the bridge, lit the tank up and run away...

TWTWB Paragraph

Describe at least one challenge faced by a character or individual in the written text..

 In Tomorrow when the War Began, an important character is Ellie. One of the challenges she faced was blowing up the bridge. It is a challenge because they didn’t know about all the things which could have gone wrong, there are a lot of risks involved like being shot, being blown up.n being seen or captured by the enemy. This challenge helped me understand Ellie because her actions and planning showed she had matured over the story, she was  brave because she had to run through gunfire. The plan with the truck shows she is not afraid to go out on a limb and hope for the best and will act to save her friends and country. As the reader I was amazed by her courage as it would be a very scary experience.

Hunger Games - How are costumes used to enhance the story?

Brainstorm:
What is happening - Picture 1
- reaping scene - 2 tributes selected to compete in the Hunger Games.
- Best dressed.

Describe Costumes
- Light colours, neutral tones, old fashioned, simple.
- Boys - shirts shirts, pants or shorts.
- Both wear formal / Sunday best.
- Girls - hair tidy, dresses or skirts.
- Colour - cold, clean, faded - washed and worn a lot.
- Older clothes mended.

Effect on viewer
- Think they poor - because clothes are outdated - Peacekeepers / Effie in new clean outfits.
- Think it is a bad living - emotionless, all the colour has been drained.

Director Purpose
- Show the comparison / juxtaposition of the district and the capital.
- Shows theme 'Rich vs Poor' because district doesn't have access to resources like new clothing.

Other Techniques
- Make-up - style = status, Effies eye lashes are long and pink and her face is white. The district has no make-up-no access or need for it.

What is happening - Picture 2
- In the Capitol, Katniss and Peeta just getting off the train, have never been there before.

Describe Costumes
- Bright, colourful, neon, extravagant, vibrant, oversized.
- Look expensive and more fancy than casual.
- Over the top - excessive, more than needed to be practical.
- Head pieces to match, wigs.
- Both genders over the top outfits / wigs / make-up.

Effect on viewer
- Think they are rich / greed - have more than us.
- Fashion is shocking / scary to viewer - in your face.
- Show us how shocked / different things are for Katniss and Peeta.

Director Purpose
- Again shows us theme 'Rich vs Poor' - the people in capitol live in extreme luxury compared to the poverty of district 12.
- People in the Capitol have everything.

Other Techniques
- Make-up - over the top - caked on so we know they have lots. Men / Women wear it.
- Setting - concrete, metal, glass, clean, crisp, futuristic, technologically advance.

What is happening - Picture 3
- In the arena of the Hunger Games.

Describe Costumes
- Practical - suitable for fighting.
- Jackets, boots, shirts, long pants.
- Colours that will match surrounding - help them hide.
- Tells us about the arena climate.
- Not going far as not much.

Effect on viewer
- Feels like they are dressed for war / hunting - all dressed same uniform.
- All look same - every has the same advantage.
- Makes us less emotionally attached to individuals.

Director Purpose
- Rich vs Poor - every one is finally equal so personal skills become important.
- Struggle for power - tributes are under the power of the Capitol, they have no freedom / free will at this point.

In the reaping scene, costume is used effectively to show the theme 'Rich vs Poor'. (e)For example, the potential tributes are dressed in formal shirts, skirts and trousers. Their clothes are well-worn, weathered and dull. (x)This make us understand the people in District 12 because their best clothes are old and faded compared to the Capitol representative Effie Trinket. (x)This is done t show juxtaposition between the extreme wealth of the Capitol and the poverty of those in District 12. (x)This worked well with the use of make-up as shown by Effie. She has lots of make-up on including long pink eyelashes, an extremely white foundation and pink and gold lips. This tells the viewer that she is wealthy because she can  afford extravagant make-up when those in the district can barely afford clothes. This aspect can be compared to the scene where the tributes arrive off the train in the Capitol. Here we see luxury and excess wealth in the costumes of the Capitol citizens compared to rags worn by Peeta and Katniss.

World Traveller (C.W.M)

Travelling to another country is surprising, let's pretend that I will be travelling to Japan in Tokyo A.K.A the capital of Japan on a holiday and pretend I can speak Japanese, I'll be staying  there for only 1 week. At first I would need to ride a plane to go there meaning it's far away from where I came from, while riding a plane, first thing I do is to sleep because sleeping in a plane is amazing! The day will start when I reach Japan. After I finally arrive in Japan, first I would do is to buy some foods near the airport because why not? By the way, sushi is one of my favourite food :D. After eating some foods, next, I would call a taxi and go to a hotel then buy a room for myself. After that I would go to an arcade game in Tokyo City and have fun by myself, I also would go to shopping. Next I would go explore famous places in Tokyo and take selfies. When my holiday week is over, I'm going to pack up my things and ready to go home. While going back home, in a plane, I would check all the selfies I took, share it to my family and tell them how my holiday went. The End ;D.

The Hunter Swoop

There's a mountain that is coloured light blue when you stare at it from far away, above the cloud there's a cloud flowing like a river. 

The light from the sun is fading and a dark place that has lots of trees just like what a forest would have. The trees are so tall and many making the place go dark.

The water under the wood port is calm.
A girl sitting at the end of the wood port staring at the great surrounding.

Character: A swan
Like, a girl swan, diving his head on the water, and to flap his wing
Dislike, boats that makes big water waves, hoomans scaring him away, and dogs barking or chasing him.

SDL Goal Week

This week I'll be doing 'catch up on work I miss or fall behind on in my own time' because I feel like I need to do it.
