Freedom Writers' diary

I think I would invite someone who lived during world war II like Anne Frank. I'm sure we would learn many things about the war.

If you don't try to understand him he doesn't want to understand you. They learn to know people from inside.

People in the gangs try to fit stereotypes, but they don't really exist.

The Freedom Writers are Black, Caucasian, Asian and Latino.


The "hood" is dangerous, there are graffiti on the walls, beer bottles filling trashcans, empty cigarette packs and syrings on the floor.

Sometimes their parents are dead or in jail (diary 6) so they are absents.

They are killed someone (diary 12).

Their problems are Racial riots, Discrimination, gang rivalry and buying a gun to survive.

It's not easy to lose a friends even in the hood. But for their it's usual to lost someone: a friend , a family member in an indeclared war in the US.

She teaches them to question things. They can change and not stay into their stereotypes.

my February vacation

During the vacation I don't plan anything, I just want to enjoy day after day...I don't want to go skiing. I want to spend a lot of time with my bestfriend and nobody else because my boyfriend isn't here: he is going to ski in Zermatt. I will go shopping or going to the cinema. It depends the weather. I think I am going to party everynight!

my daily life

Hi, I am going to write about my daily life:
In general, I wake up at 6:30 a.m. First, I wash my face and put make up on. It takes me approximately 30 minutes. Then I take my breakfast with my little brother. For my breakfast, I eat cereals and I drink milk with Ovomaltine. After that, I go in the bathroom to wash bross my hair.
I leave home for school at 7:40. Usually the classes begin at 8:05 but on Tuesdays and Wednesdays I start at 10:00. At midday, I come back home or I stay and I eat at school.
When I come back home, my mother cook for us. But when I stay at school I go in the sandwich shop and I buy a sandwich. But sometimes I eat in the cafeteria.
After school, I come back home and do my homework. Generally, I come out when I finish my homework. I meet my friends and we talk about the day sold.
I leave in an appartment with my parent and my brother. I share my room with my brother but it don't disturb me.
