NORM!

Did you know that different cultures have different ways of saying things? Like in the U.S the okay symbol means okay but in Japan it means money, and in Italy it mean a**hole. Say were at a family dinner and you brought your boyfriend to dinner, it would be very disrespectful to use you hands as a spoon. But in the Indian culture they only use their right hand to eat, and their left hand are only used for dirty things. I know if i brought my boyfriend to my family dinner and he used his hands as a spoon they would just give him a dirty look and maybe say something.

Bronx Tale

Collogero has a few different groups that he should be in. He has his family that is status should be a son. Then he would be Sonnys groups and he would be a member, friend, and son. Then he is also apart of his groups of friends. I would have to say that C's master status would be son, because he had 2 families. One was his own family since birth but the other one was gangster family. He got to be apart of Sonny's group after he told the police that Sonny did not kill the man. I think that i am like C because i come from an italian family and my family and C's family treated us the same. they both have are best interest at heart and they care so much about us.

Shoes VS Sandals

Why do you wear sandals or shoes? Is it because you like how they look? How they feel? Well have have you ever taught bout the true facts or do you just start saying judgements. I am myself a sandal person. I love them! i can wear them all year around! Today in Sociology Sal divided the class up into 2 groups one who was wearing sandals and the other one for people who were wearing gym shoes. We had to come up with a list full of reasons why someone would wear gym shoes or sandals. Some of the reasons why people wear sandals were very funny. But most of them were facts. And for the gym shoes list were some facts and judgements. Do you ever categorize something or someone. For somethings it is fine to categorize like things but not people. Fr example a cat or a tiger, there from the same cat family but one would go up and pet and the other one you would run in the other direction. This was someones example from class. Categorizing can hurt!

SPIT!

Did you ever know how gross spit or saliva is. Its very healthy for you, but it can also get you sick. If you share drinks or anything else you can become very sick. i was sitting in class on Tuesday and Sal asks a student to come up and help with him something. He needed some one to put their saliva into a spoon. After he filled the spoon up Sal started talking about saliva. You share you spit when you make out, and drink out of someone else's cup, and many more. After Sal was done talking he asked the student if he wanted to take back his spit. He said no! If you were the student would you take you spit back? I know that i would not either.
