Older Clothing!

While looking back into the past I looked into the middle ages and what they used to wear and I've found some interesting things like shoes were generally made pointed!, that the rich cloth was either scarlet, blue, reddish and two colors mixed together and also that luxury at it's height when gold, silver , and precious stones were lavished on the clothes. I think that pointed shoes it pretty complicated and that maybe it was too much to have that because you would want different styles and different types of shoes. What if the poor couldn't afford pointed shoes would they just be bare foot or would the shoes that weren't made pointed be low price enough for them?

Exploring The Other Paintings

In the book The Book Of Elsewhere Olivia is currently left at home alone again and now is exploring the other paintings around the house. With the spectacles that she has she can actually see the paintings moving! What I mean is that the people and trees or houses inside the paintings, they come to life. Some of the paintings were a woman dipping her toes into the bathtub, a woman and man enjoying lunch at a french street cafe, three girls talking and they wore something that Morton wore. Olivia jumped in the painting to ask if they new anything about Morton and the bad man. However all they did is shove her out off the painting. The last painting she explored was three men building a wall, Olivia was a little bit afraid of the men but went into the painting anyway. They way the three man acted made Olivia less scared about them, they talked about the bad man and about the basement and how there was something in there. Olivia hated the basement however might go explore it anyway.

Can't Catch Me!

The book that I'm reading is The Book of Elsewhere. One of the most funniest scenes is when Olivia and Morton get out of the painting but they have to go threw another and Morton doesn't want too. That wasn't the funny part the funniest part was that he started running away from Olivia and was taunting her but in a teasing way saying "Boys are faster than girls" and that made her very angry. Also he kept saying things like that so when she finally caught him she was so mad! However in the end she just ended up dragging him into the painting and taught him a lesson.

The One Thing He Cared For

Why I think Dally's death might have been sadder is because Dally was a hard guy and wasn't soft and he acted like he didn't care however he did have a soft spot for something actually someone what I mean is Johnny. When Johnny died Dally was crushed into pieces he had only cared for Johnny. Now that he was dead now what was Dally gonna do? He knew that the best thing for him to do is to go join Johnny to where he was. Just to see that Dally would die for Johnny or because he cared for Johnny is really sad though. However to have a fake gun and pretend he was gonna shoot the cops and then he got shot and died instantly he knew it was the right thing to do.

Little Boy

The book that I started reading last week is called The Book of Elsewhere and now there is a new character! His name is Morton and hes nine years old! Right now in the book Olivia is stuck in the painting and has been wondering around until she found Morton. The thing that is a little sad is that Morton has been stuck in this painting for forever and he was put in the painting from the bad man. They have been running all over the place to find a way out but they just cant find a path to lead them. Morton is stubborn and Olivia and even just hearing of what his face and his reaction sound like I think hes really afraid.

Golden Frienship

  • Johnny: “Stay gold.”
   The quote that I am choosing to write a paragraph about is when Johnny says " Stay Gold Ponyboy". What Johnny is saying is that he wants Ponyboy to stay good and just to be himself and to not change in the future. An example is that Ponyboy used golden for his mom because she was beautiful and caring. Basically Johnny wants him to stay that way too.  To keep helping people and understand everyone. Johnny and Ponyboy's friendship was gold or golden because they saved the kids from the church, they took care of each other and understood each other. Johnny already knew that Ponyboy was golden and I think that Ponyboy might have not thought he was gold but Johnny knew he was and so he just wanted to tell Ponyboy that he was and to stay that way before he died.

Inside The Painting

The book I'm reading The Book of Elsewhere is starting to get a little interesting because Olivia found something that will make the paintings either show something to her like a young girl with her hair combed back painting winked at Olivia when she wore this spectacles. What I think was the most interesting part though is that the first painting that showed her the little white figure thing, she was able to go through it! Also now she accidentally fell through the painting again!
