For the Fallen:

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning

We remember them.

The people has a lot to say with just a little bit of words. Talking about the fallen soldiers that died young "They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old" means that since they died so young, they won't be able to experience the life to grow old, as the ones who are still alive get to. "Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn" is saying that during this time they took the boys, not caring about their age knowing they could have a lot more to live for. But their countries needed them to take lives. The last part stands out the most "At the going down of the sun and in the morning We remember them." because it's trying to say that every sunset they will be remembered, all the fallen should be remembered because they had no choice but to fight for their countries.

I do not think I described my shadow at all. I do not hate anyone, however I do not like the kid. He thought he was better than everyone and he doesn't treat females right, and I know I do. I never have to think twice about it, I just do. I know my shadow and what I'll be afraid to become. It did take me a while to think about the person I used just because I don't really hate anyone, but this guy was just a fake friend that did me wrong a while back. My shadow is dark I know, I'm not saying this in a weird way, but I do know my shadow is pretty dark. I had a tough past, but by being the catholic kid I am, I know those things will never leave. They will always be around, trying to make it's way back, but I'll be fine, because God will take me to the bright side.

Classical music isn't something that I hate, however, some classical music I just do not like. This piece The Rite of Spring isn't something that I hate, it's just something that I wouldn't be able to listen for a long time. Some of the parts make me feel, that it's something from Tom and Jerry. My dislikes about classical music in general would have to be that, it doesn't get me in a good mood. The rhythms you can tell what's happening without even being there to watch anything. Hearing it for the first time, you can kind tell that they might've hated it. The high notes make it more catchy on how the time set was. I do not hate classical, however it's just going to be something that  I do not find that interesting. Maybe to others, they might like it, but just not to me.

A couple days ago we talked about this painting portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer (1907). I did in fact see the movie "The Woman in Gold" which was about this famous painting. The movie showed what happened in the past and all the history towards this painting. I did like the movie a lot, however this paint stuck out to me. Maybe it was because of the movie, or its a unique painting, that I find interesting. This painter Gustav Klimt is an interesting painter. He was a lot different from the others, by different I mean he used more geometric forms, some nudity, and shapes that we seem to think are "cells" through a person's body. Although this painting makes me interested in what he was thinking throughout his paintings. If you take a closer look, you can see long line brush strokes, and unique geometric shapes. In the movie "The Woman in Gold" it talks about how this painting was stolen by the Nazi, and no one knew what to call the painting at the time so they called it "The Woman in Gold" because Gustav did paint this portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer in gold with a lot of geometric shapes. Gustav makes me want to ask him "what where you thinking while you painted your works, because it's very interesting".
