This song is about friendship and meeting new people and learning about them and hangout with them. The video is about meeting a girl and just wanting to be friend with her and going out and hanging out as friend with her and maybe her friends. This music is what teens and adults can connect too because it can compare to their lives. This song relates with my life because I have lots of friend that are girl and I cool with that and just want to be friends.

The Grangerford house impressed hick because it had a lot of style and was in the country. It had an iron latch on the door and a brass knob to turn. “I hadn’t seen a house out in the country before that was so nice and had so much style.” (pg75, par 4).

The books in the room were special because they interest huck because he could related to them like the one when the dad left with no reason like his father, and the one when they build a friendship like Huck and Jim.

The unique thing about the drawings, poems, and scrapbook was that it was by one of the daughter's. The girl was obsessed with death she drew about death, she read about death and her whole scrapbook was about death. I think Mark Twain describe the picture so specifically so the readers can get a visual picture in their head of what it looks like.

Moral dilemmas in Huck Finn.

In the adventure of Huckleberry Finn. Huck faces a number of dilemmas which reveal much about the character. I think the biggest moral dilemma was when he could decided if he was going to fake his own death or not.

Huck wanted to fake his death so his father and the widow Douglas would not follow him. He did want to be with his father because he was beat him and keep him only for his money and to do work. He did want to go back top the widow Douglas because she kelp him neat and clean and in new clothes which he didn’t like and she could have been after his money.

I agree with Huck decision to fake his death. I thank that it stop his father from looking for him and the widow if they really thank he is died. The widow might thank the father had something to do with it so the father would get what he deservers.

I thank Huck is influenced by pap in a negative way. Pap tell him that stealing chickens is okay and borrow is okay as long as you intended to pay it back.

I thank Huck is influenced by Jim it a positive way. Jim look out for him. He did let him see the died body. when Huck was talking about stealing fruit Jim did tell him who was more right then the other, he just say they both were right and they should stop borrow something. Huck agree with Jim not the widow or his pap.

I thank Huck is influenced by Widow Douglas in a positive way. Widow Douglas is away tell Huck the right thing to do and trying to make Huck do the right things. Widow Douglas told Huck that borrow is not okay even if you instead to pay it back it is still stealing.

I thank that Tom Sawyer has a negative and sometime a positive effect on Huck. Huck looks up to Tom Sawyer and tries to act like him that the negative effect. But because of Tom Sawyer hick thanks things through so i that that a positive effect because he that before he acts.
