Hard Times: Book Review

Hard times by Charles Dickens is a book i read recently and since were supposed to write a book report on our blog i thought id do it on that.
Hard Times is based in an industrial revolution sort of time where all the machines are just being made so alot of people were out of jobs. There was alot of beggars and alot of thief's. Mr Grandgrind who is the father of Tom and Louisa Grandgrind. He had raised them by nothing but fact, they were taught not to imagine not to believe in things unless they had been taught it. They were raised with repressed feelings and taught not to show there emotion. As Louisa grows up she gets married to Mr Bounderby who is at least twice her age. It does not matter that she does not love him because she doesn't care and she feels she can grow old with him forever. But when there is a robbery everything gets ruined. She finally realises all her repressed feelings when she falls in love with Mr Harthhouse and she knows that the way she was brought up was wrong. The mystery of the robbery is still intriguing them and by the end of the book they are shocked to find out who it was!

This book is a classic, it is a must read. It is the kind of book that everybody should read. It was intriguing and challenging. I really recommend it. I rate it 8/10

Since i cant think of anything to write about today im writing about the best movie ever.It seriously is the best movie i mean Johnny Depp is brilliant in it hes like a box full crazy and you seriously cant meet anyone who idolizes him more than me and my mate charne.Johnny Depp is our idol and not to far behind is Orlando Bloom.

SOME AWESOME JOHNNY DEPP LINES:
"no,if we dont have the key we cant open whatever it is we dont have
that it unlocks, so what purpose would be served in finding whatever need be unlocked-which we dont have-without first haveing found the key what unlocks it"

"no,you want you to find this because the finding of this find you
incapacitoraly finding and or locating in your discovering the
detectinging of a way to save your dolly belle,ol whats-er-face"

see awesome.....

So any Johnny Depp fans your always very welcome on my site because you rock.

never drink and drive

I went to a birthday party but I remembered what you said you told me not to drink at all, so i had a sprite instead. I felt proud of myself, the way you said I would, that i didn't choose to drink & drive, though some friends said I should. I knew I made a healthy choice & your advice to me was right as the party finally ended and the kids drove out of site. I got in to my own car, sure to get home in one piece, never knowing what was coming, some thing i expected least. Now I'm lying on the pavement. I can hear The policeman say, "THE KID THAT CAUSED THIS WREAK WAS DRUNK." his voice seems far away. my own blood is all around me as I try hard not to cry. I can hear the paramedic say, "THIS GIRL IS GOING TO DIE" I'm sure The guy had NO idea while he was flying high, because he chose to drink & drive that i would have to die. so why do people do it, knowing that it ruins lives? but now the pain is cutting me like a hundred stabbing knifes. tell my sister not to be afraid, tell Daddy to be brave, and when I go to heaven to put "daddy's girl" on my grave. someone should have taught him that its wrong to drink and drive. maybe if his mum and his dad had Id still be alive. my breath is getting shorter I'm getting really scared. these are my final moments, and I'm so unprepared. I Wish that you could hold me mum, as I lie here and die. I Wish that i could say I LOVE YOU AND GOODBYE Source:i found this poem in the book "chicken soup"
