A Final Goodbye

After reading I Have Lived a Thousands Years  I have a better understanding of what it was like in the Ghettos and concentration camps. It gave a good visual of what was happening throughout the book. There were moments that surprised me, for example if someone got severely injured, I would wonder how they survived. Ellie the main character kept up hope even if things looked bad. The overall theme for my novel would be Identity loss because throughout the novel Ellie and her family lost a part of themselves. When the women no longer looked liked women, when numbers became their names, when the Germans called them nothing but bad names, and when everything they had to call home was stripped away from them.

I thought this project was okay because it made me push myself over the minimum; it was hard but I pulled through it. I have learned that you need to keep believing and not giving up hope, even if things don't look your way. By doing this blogging project I learned that I need to write over the limit and give as much facts as I can in order to have a fantastic blog. This project is important to teenagers because it shows us that we need to go above and beyond our level of thinking. That writing a good blog post takes preparation and you have to write like you are the one talking, that the readers know that your speaking. I want to thank all the contributors that commented and gave ideas, it means a lot that you read our blogs!
