Career pursuits

I believe that being passionate about what your career could be is very important because if you get into something you dont enjoy doing you wont enjoy your life. If you love doing something pursue it because thats how you make your life interesting or exciting. A career path i would take is a history major in college or university, i enjoy learning about the events that led to where we are today. This could take me into many different career feilds from teaching to being a tour guide. If i got into a job like this i think i would really enjoy it, telling people what i know.

Novel research

I took a look into the violence in the novel. The teens in the near-future england are a group of friends who rather than being regular members of society they are a gang that indulges in intense bouts of ultra-violence to quench their need for excitement. They look for reasons to cause harm and steal because they delight in causing others harm.  “Our pockets were full of deng, so there was no real need from the point of view of crasting any more pretty polly to tolchock some old veck in an alley and viddy him swim in his blood while we counted the takings and divided by four, nor to do the ultra-violent on some shivering starry grey-haired ptitsa in a shop and go smecking off with the till's guts. But, as they say, money isn’t everything," this quote shows that alex the leader of the group is very articulate and he uses that to express his enjoyment and interest in violence and crime. They all use violence as a hobby and they are very smart about how they go about doing that.

Perception is everything

The theme of beau lotto's presentation is how people percieve things varies because of past experiance and everything that the person has seen, touched, smelt, heard, tasted. Everything he spoke of makes complete sense, like in a cituation with a boyfriend and girlfriend for example, They break up, in one of the persons mind the perception of the cituation can be panic or curiosity but the other person may percieve the cituation completley differently, relief and comfort. Everything we do depends on how we percieve the moment, say a fight broke out because of disrespect or something along those lines. In this cituation both people believe their in the right because of how they percieve the others actions words ect... in one persons mind someones words are telling the other something about how they are that they believe is true, but what about the other person their perception of the persons words may mean they think it isnt true and they could take that as disrespect. If you analyze any cituation where one persons view differs from the other it shows exactly what beau was saying, the way people percieve anything accounts for their understaning of it and the actions caused by how they understand it, which differs completely for everyone on earth.
