Nervous Conditions

         In class we are reading a book called Nervous Conditions, the author is Tsitsi Dangarembga. At first I was extreamly confussed because reading this book is almost like a code that you have to decode to understand. The book starts off by the main character saying that she is not sorry for her brother's death. This of course caught my eye because I had never herd of such a thing, naturally I was courouis so I kept reading.
 
       While I was reading I had to keep the sheet that Dr. D gave us in order to find out who she was talking about. I found out that her brother Nhamo was killed in 1968 and she was only 13 years old. She also goes on by saying how she was always jelous of her brother because he got to go to school because he was the oldest and the boy, while she just had to sit at home. I wonder how her brother did die, since they live in an unsafe area mabey he was murdered.

     I have also been woking on my Global Issues project, going to nootletooles every night and making sure that I have what I need. I have been practicing preparing my qoutes and putting them into the correct format. I split my time up into 30 minutes every night which really helped me.
