Museum of Natural Art.

Field trip was quite interesting. At first i felt like i was in grade school again. I was gathered in the right group of people, which made everything quite interesting. The people in my group was Daniel, Omar, Lizbeth and Sabrina. We first scroll through the boring stuff such as dinosaur bones and such and then what interested me is the old age. Behind the glass there was models showing us how they used to survive and their living conditions. Apes was quite scary and I can tell the human body had evolve so much. Dear god we did evolve because i don't wanna be looking like a monkey. The sea animals of the museum was quite interesting. I was told that the insects was real but just dead and preserved. There was different types of roaches and the evolving of each species. The big lion looked very fierce, almost looked like it was alive. I bought my sister's camera which means I took many pictures of what interested me. I will soon upload some pictures. Of course not everything was visual, I did learned many new facts about the pass and the future.

Dark City. . & A vision of Students

It's a different type of movie made, it's another mind quiver movie. In this movie the scenes are always dark and it definitely can relate to matrix. It's about a guy in a world that's very odd. He woke up one day not remembering who he is or who is was. It's like everything in his mind has been flossed. In the movie there are these weird aliens making everyone sleep in a certain time and brain washing them changing their memories around. Im not sure for what reason but they constantly go around and giving people shots in their head and the next minute they will wake up and act like it's all natural. They want to mix memories around so they can see who has the human sole. Obviously, they found the right guy, His name was John Mardock. He has control that no other human has. He can battle the aliens and can destroy them. John made them realize that he is the one they need and looking for because he is "different". In another words, they looking for someone with special powers.

The video of visons of students today had made me realize things i've haven't seen. Financially, it's true people do make less than a dollar a day because they spend more than a dollar a day. People say laptop is a technology that has improved our life. Unfortunately i think not. People get their mind off things because of so much technology such as stay on the phone for hours and stayiong on facebook throughout their classes. Maybe, laptop isnt the best thing in our life during class time. This video shows us different perspective of students today, and it isn't wrong.

Simone

Simone is a very interesting movie. Let me just sum it up a little. Simone is a make believe actress all audited by computer. Its different pieces of history stars put together. Thats how she conceive her personality , characteristic and how she sounds. I like it because it keeps me thinking and predicting about whats going to happen next. While i was watching it i was predicting that Simone was to come alive or something and overcome her creaters power. I was hoping she would just pop out the screen while he was being questioned by the detective or police. It was so funny when he said "yesss i killled her let me go" lol i find it as such a humorous line. This connects to our media today and how they can show what you see can be not what it really seems like. Everything you see can be patrolled by computer, human , imagination and what not. Simone was a normal make believe but her creater had put parts of legends in her. Which definitely made her seem like she got it all. She got the body, attitude, voice, way of acting and hair. Every part of her belongs to someone else. It isnt hard to be someone else in Simone's case. Her creater victor had let his creation overcome him. He got so used to the fam and such he lost his inner personality. Again this movie can relate to matrix. HOW? well During matrix Neo needed Trinity's incouragement to his ears in order for him to be able to fight back and in Victor's case he needed his daughter and wife to incourage him and tell him that things has changed and his daughter had saved him from an acuse, the cops had acused him to be killing Simone. How would you kill someone that isn't real? I wonder all the time, if i stayed unknown and unseen, would people believe i ever exist? In the movie simone never did showed her real face and such noone ever truly met her formally, If i was to never shook hands with anyone or associated with anyone but only through telecom, do you think people would believe that i was real or fake?
