WHEN THE CAT'S AWAY THE MICE GO TO WORK)

I finished reading chapter 5 from “Brave Bew World”. I read it and what I found was the important ideas what that Hernry told something very important to Lenina which was that people enjoy being the class they are, since they have never learned what’s it like being anything else. Also that Bernard does solidarity service on Thursday and he felt more isolated while he attended it.
Chapter 6
Lenina was thinking that she shouldn’t change her mind to go to Mexico and instead go to the North Pole with Benito
North Pole- “hotel too hopelessly old-fashioned–no television laid on in the bedrooms, no scent organ, only the most putrid synthetic music, and not more than twenty-five Escalator-Squash Courts for over two hundred guests.”
Bernard was the only men Lenina knew has an entitled permit 
Talking and walking was an odd way to spend your afternoon 
She doesn’t know what “free” is 
Bernard took a soma tablet
The director signs a permit so he can visit Reservation 
The director told Bernard a secret of the missing girl
“Warden was a blond and brachycephalic Alpha-Minus, short, red, moon-faced, and broad-shouldered, with a loud booming voice”

Response to “Dream Within a Dream”

What I understand from the poem “Dream Within a Dream” is that it seems hard to understand what is a dream and what it real life. It is also really hard to remember what your dream was about even after you just woke up. No matter how had you try to remember it the less you seem to know what you were dreaming about and even the most basic details about it. The author also want to show how he would like to hold on to them for a long period of time so he can remember at least the good things in life, even if that comes from just a dream.

Brave New World Theme

From reading the book Brave New World the theme for me is loneliness. In the beginning we are introduced to Bernard, when we meet him he feels like he doesn’t fit in. He seems to be different from others and thinks differently than the people from the World State. People in the World State take soma and do sexual things in order to please themselves and others because they feel empty inside. John also feels out of place when he arrives to the World State that he wants to leave to the island.

I am GSD

As an independent learner I believe that it makes me understand a topic more. I can take as much time I want on a specific topic, without anyone telling me to rush my learning process. I feel like I can gather important information when I do my own research. When I become a independent learner it feels like it makes me more motivated and responsible as a person. It motivates me because I know what I need to improve on and I find ways to get better. It also makes me responsible because I know what I need to understand and how to increase my learning in anyway.
