Dear Diary...





Diseases are a major problem I keep having to face, such as Malaria, Yellow Fever, dysentery, typhoid, and dengue. I always have to stay healthy or there is that possibility I may lose my job. :( Not to mention this tropical heat is driving me crazy. When will the sun go away!?!?!? There are so many things we have to look out for such as Train derailments, falling from the trains, being crushed under land and mud slides, and suffication from noxious gases are the other ones. Geez and people think being a doctor is hard work....

Imperialism = Kidnapping

           Imperialism; Stronger nations oppressing weaker nations. 
To me imperialism reminds me of adults to babies. Adults are for the most part a lot stronger than babies and take control. If I had to pick an article that shows an example of imperialism I would have to say...
...........The Caylee Anthony Case. 
Caylee Anthony disappeared in June 2008 and reported dead after a long search. Her skeletal remains were found near her home, it is said that Caylee's mother Casey Anthony was the murder and is now in jail for first degree murder charges. If you really think about it the poor little girl had no chance up against an adult (her mother). Caylee Anthony was the weaker nation up against a stronger nation.

The Boy in the Striped Pajamas


The Boy in the Striped Pajamas takes place during World War II. The story is told through the eyes of an eight year old boy named Bruno. Bruno is the son of the commandant at the concentration camp, which happens to be steps away from their new house. Not long after the family moves Bruno decides to adventure around his new lot. He runs into the prison camp where he meets a young Jewish boy named Shmuel. 
Shmuel is dressed in striped pajamas and on the opposite side of the electric fence. Bruno is not allowed to see Shmuel but sneaks to see him secretly. By the control of Hitler (the strong nation) he has millions of soldiers keeping guard at the concentration camps, killing tons of Jews (the weaker nation). The jews have no control over their fate, you either have to follow the soldiers orders or you get shot. The concentration camp Shmuel was at was awful, the poor boy had to wear these dirty hideous striped outfits and do all the work around the camp. The camp was not even close to the way we picture camps now-a-days, it was dirty, scary, and dark. By the end of the story Bruno actually goes into the camp to be with his friend and ends up being mistaken as a jew and gets brought into the gas chamber with Shmuel. I believe this is an excellent example of a stronger nation oppressing a weaker nation; imperialism.
