Gordon Parks photography

Today I will be explaining to you what I think could be the story behind this picture. First she's walking away from the nuns, so maybe she wanted to be a nun but they didn't accept her. I think that they might also have rejected her because of something that she did.She might have just wanted to get whatever secret she had off of her conscience and they kicked her out even though that is not the way of god he forgives every one. He forgave us when we crucified his son and he will forgive that lady for whatever sin(s) she committed too. I think that she looks back only a little because she is so enraged on how the nuns behaved about her past. Even though their pasts probably aren't guilt free either.




What I see in this picture

This is a mother of four who does every things for her kids and she doesn't have help . She tries to make it on her own by working at night and sometimes in the morning. She is taking care of her babies as her daughter is getting ready to go to school. She is fond of the moments she spends with her kids during the day. She has to work and pay the rent but she feels that her daughter is not having a normal life because she has to care for her brother and sisters. Even though her daughter explains everyday that it's okay she will watch them because they can't afford a babysitter right now.

New Years Resolution

My New Years Resolution is to be nice to everybody even if we had problems. One other Resolution I have is to get all A's in everyone of my classes.

What’s Your New Years Resolution

So it’s the year of '09 and there are a lot of big things happening and a lot of changes to be done. For instance, Barack Obama, he’s the 44th and first black president. Obama is going to change the world for the middle class families in America by raising tax rates for the rich people and fixing the budget. But the major thing I love about a new year is a new start on things, to forget your past and start over and set new goals for yourself.

Tanisha's Holidays!

This Christmas I got a lot of stuff like clothes and an iPod Touch. The rest of my presents were money and gift cards.
In this New Year, 2009, I will be a better student and try to stop fighting people and make them mad. Also I want to stop being smart with my teachers and try not to get mad when they yell at me.
Happy New Years Everyone!

My Winter Break

My winter break was fun! I got almost everything I wanted and I got to spend 12 days with family, friends and no school. My new year’s resolution is to stay away from fake and backstabbing people as much as possible. Also this year I want to work on my anger problems, they aren’t as bad as they used to be but they could be better.

The New Year 2009

by Anthony Lovelace

I am very happy this is a new year. It is 2009 and it should be a very good year for everyone. We have a new president. He has a lot of work to do but he should do a good job. This is my last year at Fredrick Douglass and I expect to be attending New Media Technology this year in September. I have a new business that is still running from last year. I expect this year to be very good.
