words from the alchemist

the word OASIS is an isolated area of vegetation in a desert typically surronding a spring or similar water source. oasis also provide habitat for animals and even humans if the area is big enough. URIM AND THUMMIM were used to answer the question innocent or guilty,the old king probably sed urim and thummim to answer if the criminal was innocent or guilty and he gave it to santiago so that he can answer his important questions.OMENS may be considered either good or bad depending on their interpretation.the same sign mat be interpreted differently by differnt people pr different cultures.

the alchemist

this is in the second part of the alchemist.i thought this was intresting when santiago and the englishman took a ride on the caravan through the desert to find santiagos

treasure and to go tomecca.i think its really cool that santiago went on a ride throught the desert and for it not to take as long as it would walking.

the burning journals

the book im reading is called the burn journals by brent runyon. it is a true story about his life and how he tried to commit suicide by trying to burn himself. the reason he did it was because he was going to get expelled. when he told his friend, his freind said "hey,thanks". he had tried to kill himself many other ways but they never worked. he is telling his life and i think that he souldnt have done that but i do recomend this book to other people to read.

author letter

dear gail carson levine,
i really like your book "fairiest".i think its suck a good book because the people talk like if they are in the older times.to me the book is like if you are trying to re-write the fairytale of snow white except that aza doesnt think that shes pretty and thiks tat everyone thinks shea the ugliest thing in the world.Aza is the same as snow white because they bout have a beautiful voice.I think that Aza is going to find herself in alot of danger and is going tbe in an adventure.
