Um no one has writen here yet so i am happy to be the frist. Ok now what should I say about the book besides that it relates to everyone in some form or another and mrs ruu is right that it takes a higher level of thinking the understand. But what is werid to me is that they think the bible is obsenity

It's very interesting to see the conversation between the savage and the controller. It's like watching a parent talk to a little child that doesn't know barely anything about the world. For me it's really hard to listen to my parents anymore, they just don't get through to me. It's hard to realize, but I know it's partially my fault that nothing they say makes sense to me, because I know my ego is standing in the way.

at first i didnt like this book because it talked about kids doing the nasty but this book is really good and i agree of what mrs. ruu said that it takes a higher level of thinking to understand this. I like this book because like robynne said it relates to everything. Our society today is slowly growing up to be like what was described in the book. Back in the day religion was really important but now people dont even believe in God anymore. Drugs and sex are normal now to ppl. I also agree with Mrs. ruu about the happiness thing..that if your happiness from a person is what youer always looking for then youre goign to be miserable because that person cant make you happy all the time.**

Rebecca Tackett Okay so I have written all of my stuuf on the iother wiki just because I didn’t know that we had to use this one I kust thought I could keep putting my opinions up on the other one because people were still having discussions with me Rebecca- Okay so i wasnt here last class but i think i am caught up. reading today made me realize. like they dont think that anything we do is right but they do believe in doctors. But the doctor only keeps people from getting sick and happy but they dont save lives. What is the point really when there are people like Linda that drink constantly and always take soma! If that is like us then why dont there doctors be like our doctors to? that jjust really bothers me!!! Rebecca Tackett May 19 2008

Penitentes are apparently really into the whole christantiy thing.Which i really think is bull. Maybe that is because of what i believe in? But the way they walk around in streets in some countries hitting themselves in the back with the rock and nails and when they nail themselves to the crosses i think that takes it a little bit to far to show your love to god! The way the people in the book do it really confuses me to. If they want to recreate the crusifixtion of jesus how do they do that? With the person they consider to be there god to be Ford? They are kind of contradicting themselves. But in a way Huxley called it because there are people in our society today that are very religious but when they are around friends or coworkers they will sware up and down that they are Athiest. Rebecca Tackett okayy so from what we were able to read today the people in this book go through a lot of soma! not to normal the way huxley says it he makes it seem like they are addicted to it. Which yea we have that today but not eeryone does it like they say in the book. There are supposivly only 2 out of every four people that do drugs and drink alcohol but in this book it is like 4 out of 4 except for the few that you see in a blue moon that dont!! rebecca T - okay so we are starting to get into the new expierences that john is having and once again they revolve around sex(big surprise) rebecca T. i know not everyone does drugs but the bigger half of the united states does or has before.. i amreading the book with a clear mind and i might understand it a different way but for the most part mrs. ruu has said that i understand it and i am right on with my entries so i have to be doing something right!!!! but as for the book i am glad they are starting to answer some of the questions and Huxley is making so much more sense. The way he tells that only certain people can do certain jobsand they will be satisfied with that is so true. And there are other people who always want to do better!!

(lenard Schmid) As I read the book I have noticed that the book gradually sliding toward the present day and our society as it goes on. People aren’t acting like machines any more but more like human beings although it took objection to reach this point which out the human classes that they were placed in there wouldn’t be anything to object about therefore there would be no story.

The book is just so confusing to me and I hate it….i wish we was reading something different and I could really understand it and go on with the class…. The chapter are so crazy one minute they are doing stuff that normal people do then the next thing I know they are acting like monsters…Our world today is growing up slowly like the book one day the world would be like the book but its going to take time it already seems to be that way the way the kids are acting and how everybody are having sex at a young age and how they disrespect there parents and peers and the people they suppose to love….

SHONTIA GRANER 6/3/08

THE CHAPETR WAS A LIL CONFUSING AND IT HAD ME MAD…I DIDN’T WANT TO READ THE BOOK AT ALL AND THEY WERE GETTING ON MY NERVES IN THE BOOK..I DON’T LIKE THE WAY THEY TREAT EACHOTHER AND HOW THEY JUST DOG PEOLE OUT…I AM A LIL EXCITED THAT I DIDN’T HAVE TO EXPERENCE NOTHING LIKE THAT….I DIDN’T UNDERSTAND AT FIRST BUT YOU HAVE TO REALLY LISTEN AND READ THE BOOK AND SEE ITS NOT ALL ABOUT SEX BUT HEY I STILL DON’T LIKE IT AND I WISH I COULD REALLY KNOW WHAT MADE THEM THINK OF SUCH THING AND MADE THEM WANT TO WRITE A BOOK THAT IS CRAZY LIKE THIS… EVERYBODY HAS DONE SOMETHING IN THE BOOK BEFORE BUT NOT THE SAME WAY AND THEY HAVE HEARD OF SOMEBODY THEY KNOW DOING SOMETHING STUPID AS IT READ IN THE BOOK…THE BOOK WAS JUST TO MUCH FOR ME AND I NEVER READ ANY OF IT BECAUSE OF THE WAY THEY SPEAK I COULDN’T REALLY UNDERSTAND WHAT WAS BEING SAID IM JUS KEEPING IT REAL..I DON’T KNOW THE BOKK BUT WHAT YALL WAS READING AN WHAT THE CLASS WOULD TALK ABOUT….IM GONE AND I WILL MISS YOU MRS.RUU…SMOOCHES…..MS.TOONT!

Erik Koepcke I have not been writing but I really want to straighten up and do my work so here are all of the entries…(Thanx Rebecca) April 24th 2008 The book is perverted. And im not really understanding it. Why did they consider mother and father bad words? And why would they want the children to be decanted instead of having a natural birth? April 28th 2008 Yea the book is weired and disgusting but at the same time the author is really telling some of the truths about young kids in this day of age. May 1st 2008 Bernard seems to have a bigger ego than the rest of the characters in the book. But at the same time I think he regrets doing it with lenina. Lenina seems to be acting really ignorant May 5th 2008 Benard is just now realizing that he is so alone in the world and he really doesn’t want to be. He slept with lenina thinking that it would give him an in to society but it just made im more of an outcast. May 7th 2008 It shows me a little now that we do take for granted the little luxuries we have. Like being able to call our mom, mom and our dad, dad. Even Being able to have someone that we know we came from and we didn’t just come from a jar. May 9th 2008 We are starting to understand why lenina acts the way she does. She had her whole world turned upside down. She was raised in one world and then out of the blue she was thrown into a totally different world. May 15th 2008 I also think the take our freedoms for granted we don’t have to live on a reservation and be all exactly alike like the people in the book do. May 19th 2008 Lenina is so in love with john and should be upset the way he totally turned him down when she was offering himself to her. May 22nd 2008 It is like now. The girls put themselves out there and the guys turn them down.there are plenty of girls now that are sluts and they throw themselves out there but they are so nasty that no guy wants them. May 28th 2008 No person should lie about wether they have had sex before getting married because yes someone will find out and they will be highly upset. May 30th 2008 Its cool to see the conversation between the savage and the controller. That argue with so much passion in what they belive in.

Vanya Liapin WOW it took 45 min to get to this page because my neighbore left nd i was getting wireless from him nd everyone else has a very poor signal. anyway back to book i believe Bernads is a weak person. first he was afraid to defend his friends when their life was under threat. And the he could not accept his punishment which was nothing bad but he was not strong enough to even listnen to it... He wants to many things but he is not ready to fight for them (thats from the last night) Vanya Liapin (today) I dont get the endig. its like the author ran out or words. The is no life lesson. Ok John died like a last looser who has proved nothing. I have no sympathy for him. I expacted so much more from him. He started of like a real warrior for his believe and at the end he gave up. So i guess this type of the world is coming and there is no way to escape it?

//**CHERITA LILLY:** THIS IS ALL MY DAYS I DIDN'T WRITE ON SO HOPEFULLY U GET THIS//. I GONNA WRITE LIKE I TALK AND TEXT THIS TIME TO SAVE A LIL TIME SO HOPEFULLY U CAN STILL UNDERSTAND ME.
 * IDK THE DATE BUT BEFORE MAY 15:** JOHN MOTHER WAS AT LIKE A PARTY OR SOMETHIN TALKIN ABOUT JOHN BEIN BORN. I THINK AROUND THIS TIME BENARD FEELS LONELY OR LEFT OUT. HE THINKS THE GIRL BABY IS JUST LIKE HIM.

Shundrea Garcia I must say when i reached the end of this book i was disappointed. I thought i had it figured out why he killed himslef, but then Dory brought up and excellent point. Did he kill hisslsef because he got laid or what because i noticed it said he woke from his soma whatever and remembered everything that happened and why were they singing oryg porgy. I gues i didnt cath all of that when i first read it so Mrs. Ruu can you please enlighten me about the ending.
 * MAY 15:** LINDA WAS VERY CONFUSING WHEN IT CAME TO HER CHILD. TO BEAT AND YELL ON SOMEONE THEN LOVE ON THEM IS WEIRD. TRULY THAT'S HOW SOME MOTHER'S ACT TODAY. THEY DISCIPLINE THEIR CHILD THEN HUG AND KISS THEM TRYING TO BE NICE.
 * MAY 19:** I COULDNT REMEMBER MUCH SO I CANT SPEAK ON THIS DAY. I WOULD HAVE MORE I WOULD HAVE WROTE THIS ON TIME AFTER READING IT. OK WELL THAT'S ALL LOL
 * MAY 22:** BENARD IS ACTING FUNNY TOWARDS LENINA AND DOES NOT WANT TO HAVE SEX WITHER. BENARD WENT FROM BEING NOBODY TO SOMEWHAT POPULAR. HE'S STARTING TO ACT SNOBBY AND HIGH MAINTENANCE.
 * MAY 28:** I THINK JOHN IS TRYING TO OVERLOOK LENINA'S WAYS. HE SEES HER AS SOMETHIN SO INNOCENT AND BEAUTIFUL. HE IS TRYING TO RESPECT HER BUT SHE DONT GET IT. WELL I HOPE THIS ENOUGH TO BRING MY GRADE UP TO SOMETHIN PASSING!!!!!!!!!

He killed himself because he had made perfection his own goal. The new world was supposed to be perfect by taking away all morality and letting anything that people wanted to do be ok. There was no need to be moral, just be happy. Then John wanted perfection of never breaking his own moral code. He wanted to ALWAYS do the right thing. He couldn't forgive himself for being human. He believed that he could be equal with his concept of God. He was in love with the ideal of Lenina and he couldn't accept her imperfection either. When everyone came to see him whip himself, he became enraged. He was actually feeling good whipping himself, and trying to remember his vow to never forget that he "killed" Linda (even though she was dying.) He kept remembering Lenina, in a sexual way, then along she comes. She finally understood him because she saw the feelie about him and for the first time, had some feeling for someone besides herself. She wanted to tell him but he musunderstood. He thought she was there to make fun of him like everyone else. He began to beat her, to punish her for disrespecting him and he beat her to death. The orgy porgy was because all of those people only had time where their emotions were allowed to be totally uncontrolled during their Solidarity Service (church) so they did what they always did when they were emotional. They had an orgy which would have completely freaked out John. I think he fell asleep because he had been soooo emotional, he was exhausted. When he woke up, he realized what he had done to Lenina and that was the end of his rope. He just couldn't live with it so he killed himself. I don't remember it saying he woke up from soma. I'll have to look, again. Sometimes I forget or miss stuff. If there was soma, it must have been the authorities, gassing them again, because I don't think he would have done it on purpose. It just showed him that the problem was still there no matter WHAT he did.

BRANDON HOLDER I really enjoyed reading this book in class, especially since I got to read the head guy, the controller, or Mustapha Mond. I find a lot of the points in the book very interesting and i'd love to re-read the whole book on my own and go more in depth with each individual topic exploring how it relates to life in todays society and what I should look out for and warn others in the future.
