"the model " blog post 26

what do you think about shays disctription of a model? shay and tally have a skewed view of our time but what have they got right?
I think that even though they have a very skewed veiw of our time they have alot right. those people do have a disease. It is a horrible disease to have. That would be one good reason about the opperation nobody would ever get that disease.

"bug eyes" blog post24

important events of this chapter in chronological order.
the people on the helecopter took tally in it. they saved her from the fire that they had started and they didnt know she was in the way. they starteed the fire because all of the flowers were from a messed up science project. the flowers grew so much that it was killing out all the other species so the only way to get them to go aaway was to burn them. they dropped her of with her hoverboard on the hill side and she waited there for her friend shay to come pick her up.


respond to this quote:
"....tally was stuck out here forever. ugly for life. her only way home was to betray her freind."
If tally doesnt call special circumstancces and turn in shay and her freinds she will never get home and she will be an ugly forever.

have you ever made yourself do something that you dont want to do because you knew you had to?
Yes. All the time. Even though i dont want to do my homework i make myself do it anyway or i will get bad grades. i clean my room because if i dont i wont be able to walk.

Predict what you think will happen next.
I think that a wild fire is going to start and all the flowers are going to catch on fire. Tally is going to fly over it on her hoverboard.

"leaving" blog post 19

Why do you think Peris comes back?? Support your answer with textual evidance.
I think he came back to give Tally confidence. To help her through a tough time. He was being a true friend.
"Peris sat next to her and held her for a while as she cried, then wiped her nose,and sat her up." "Best freinds forever, Tally."

"ugly for life" blog post 17

"everywhere she went eyes looked away. But it was the most visible shed ever felt."
Tally was always to herself. nobody noticed her usualy. Now that she has done something out of the ordinary, people notice her. Not a good reason but she is still getting the attention she isnt used to having.

"special circumstances" blog post16

summarize:
Tally was taken far on a hoverboard to a bulilding. inside the building there was many people that were a cruel pretty. Everyone was very cruel looking. She went into the room to find a lady. She was a cruel pretty too. She said that Taly must tell her about shay and were she went and who she went with or she could never turn pretty.

characterization of Dr.Cable:

• cruel pretty
• sharp teeth
• razor blade tone
• middle aged
• works for the special circumstances

"operation" post15

summarization:
Tally is going to the opperation and thinks about all that shay had said. she was trying to figure it all out and was disappointed that she wouldnt get to see shay again. She only brought a few clothes and the letter from shay. A man took her to a waiting room and she sat there for hours that seemed like forever when he came back and said there was a problem with her opperation.

"we dont have to look like everyone else tally and act like everyone else. wve got a choice. we can goe up any way want." Shay is a very confedent person. she is postive in life and always looks for the best in what she has. She doesnt need to be changed into something tnew to be the same person. she is happy in her own skin.

"THat was one thing about being outside the city it made all that nature stuff they tought you in school seem more useful. She remembered now how rainwater fell on the mountains and soaked into the ground...."
That it is real. There isnt as muc technology and it is natural. Technology doesnt run it. It is present here and past there. Are present is more technical than it use to be. There present is way more techical then our present which is there past.

Two fights were presented in this chapter. Compare and contrast both of them. List there similarities and differences. Why did each each fight take place. What was the outcome of each one?
The fight at the library was fake. It was just a joke on the new kids. They were messing around and didnt mean anything by it. The outcome of this fight was all the new kids awing in disbelive which was just what they wanted to happen. The fight at the river was serious. Shay and Tally were arguing about turning pretty. Tally didnt think that they should just spend the rest of their life the way they were. She thought they were all suppose to be pretty and be the same people. Shay thought that they were great the way they were. That they didnt need to change their apperance to be pretty. They only had to be pretty on the inside.

"Rapids" page#53 post 10

In this chapter Tally says, "I kind of like being fooled about some things." Do you agree with Tally, or would you rather know the reality behind everything? why?
No, I wouldnt want to know everything in reality. Life would be boring. Therewould be no surprises, or adventures. No discoveries to be made.

Summary of chapter.

Tally and Shay make there way to the ruins. Tally sees all the old, rotted buildings and houises. Shay shows Tally the rollercoaster. They ride the rollercoaster on their hoverboards. Shay doesn't tell Tally about the gap and Tally is in freefall for a while and then getrs back on track. Tally is angry with Shay for telling her, but she gets over it. Then Shay tells Tally she is gong to meet someone.

What were the Rusty Ruines? What happened during this time period?

They are when everyone was ugly and people judged others. It is present day to us but there past. To them it was a ruin, imperfection. To us it is our community and in all of its flaws its pretty amazing.

Define pure pressure. Think of a time when it happened to you or someone you know and explain the situation in a paragraph.

There are many types of pure pressure. Some are good and, some are bad. I havent expereanced much pure pressure in my life. I have had pure pressure before but, it was the good kind such as running a race, danceing, or cheering. My friends or family cheer me on. I condsider this the best pure pressure.

"Making ourselves feel ugly is not fun."

"This whole game is just designed to make us hate ourselves."

"Everyone judged eberyone else based on their apperance. People who were taller got better jobs....people killed one another over stuff like having different skin color."

"Its the only way to make people equal."

Shay is happy in her own skin and doesnt want anyone to put her down. It is horrible that people judge. It is no ones place and everyone has flaws and imperfection.

If everyone was the same nobody would judge. I think that it shouldnt have to come to that. People should love everyone and treat them the same no matter what they look like.

Hoverboarding

Why do you think the new pretties dont come back to uglyville to visit?

I think it is because, they getso caught up with parties and forget about their old life since their new life is so perfect.

They are so perfect and there community is so perfect that they put off going back to Uglyville to the such unperfection.
