Dear Family and Friends.......

I am kind of glad that this is the last blog post for the White Mountain! For this blog post I have to write this letter, as if I am Will and I am writing the letter to someone else. I am going to write a letter to Will's Family and Friends. I think that writing a letter is easier then the other blog post I have done. This is how I will be telling my story and here I go:

Dear Family & Friends,
How are you all?I am missing all of you guys there and I am fine there is nothing to worry about me. I really wish that I was there with all of you guys and I really want to see all of you. If you are wondering were I am I am sorry but I can't tell you because I don't want to you all and myself to get in danger. If this letter accidentally goes to the Tripods then they read this then they will know were I am and they will come for me to probably cap me.

I have heard about Jack, that he has gotten capped and I really don't want to end up like him so I am really trying to get there to you guys as quick and possible. I must say that Jack was my best friend and he was the best but then again after he got capped he just totally changed. Whenever I said something to him he just acted really strange and different I have never really seen him like that in my whole life I must say. Then later on Jack was just really far away from him and I couldn't even talk or go to him ever since so that is why I don't want to capped.

I have learned a lot of things in this journey, I must say that not having freedom can be really hard and life would be really odd, boring and people will be bossing me around. I have also learned in this journey a lot about life, love, friendship, trust, my life, freedom, death and etc. I guess I have also learned a bit about the Tripods life somehow. Well there nothing much I can say because I don't know what to say at the moment but I hope you write back soon to me and I looking forward to you all writing back. I really want to come there and see you all! :)

Love,
Your one and only Will :)

That is how I write my short letter but my question is how do you write yours.

Lit cirlce blogpost #4 The Castle with the Red Tower

In humanities we are really close to finishing the book White Mountains just the last two chapters and we will be done. We were told to write/explain about a quote on chapter 6 and the quote is on page 111. The quote says: "The bitter thing was all the spirit, all the gallantry, was wasted. For even more than inferiors, they accepted and looked forward to being Capped. It was a part of becoming a knight, or of turning from a girl to lady. Thinking of this, I saw how good things could be meaningless in isolation. What value did courage have, without a free and challenging mind to direct it?" This is my first reason, this quote relates more to freedom. What the author is trying to say in this book is that there is no freedom. Maybe at first they will have a bit of freedom but then at the end they will get capped and they will be total slaves to the tripods. Will and Henry think that they will not get capped because they are going to the White Mountains and that they tripods will not be able to find them there. That will not be true the tripods might find them or they will just run away to another place which they think that the tripods can't find them, but the tripods can find them. Also both of them thought that they will have freedom and that they will be knights solders and people like that, but in real life they won't get a chance to be like that because they won't have freedom once they get capped.

I also have my second reason which is when Will get taken care off when he was sick. When he was in The Red castle he was really happy for some reason. He thought that hes life was changed after he escaped from the tripods. The tripods were really close to catching Will and Henry but then they escaped and they were really happy. I think that they were really lucky that they escaped from the tripods. Will was thinking of getting capped but then he didn't but maybe at the end he might just make up his mind and will get capped. Those are my two reasons.

Blogpost 3 & Lit Circel #4

How were the tripods able to control the people?
Well how the tripods control the people is really easy. The tripods would just go around capping people which will probably include Will and Henry. Ozymandias has told Will all about the tripods and so that is why Will, Henry and Beanpole are trying to get to the White Mountains so that they don't get capped. I don't think that Beanpole is going with Will and Henry to not get capped. He is going because he just joined Will and Henry to the White Mountains so that he could be their guide to the Mountains. We will only know if Beanpole will get capped after we read the whole of the White Mountains. So I am looking forward to read the more and finish the book.

Find evidence (quotations from the novel) to show that even though Will is comfortable living at the castle, he is frustrated that the Comte, Comtesse, and Eloise have been capped.
I couldn't really find any quotation's for this question but I only found one and it is in Page 108. Which is"No. After all, they are Capped. They have different customs, but they obey the Tripods. THey are still slaves. they treat us kindly, but they must not know our plans." That is probably the only quote that I found but I couldn't find anymore. I am not really sure if he was comfortable in Red castle or not because it say much about that.

Find evidence (quotes) to show how Will feels about being capped.
Well I don't think that he would have wanted to get capped and that is why he is trying to escape to the White Mountains with Henry and Beanpole but Beanpole is just there to probably show them the way to the White Mountains. I found a paragraph of quotation about this question on page 33. "They make men think the things the Tripods want them to think? They Control the brain. How, or what extent, we are not sure. As you know, the metal is joined to the flesh, so that it cannot be removed. It seems that certain general orders are given when the Cap is put on. Later, specific orders can be given to specific people, but as far as the majority are concerned, they do not seem to bother." That is all that I could have found but then I couldn't really find more then that, maybe I can but I probably just can't remember were the quotes were!

How will Beanpole help Will and Henry on their journey to the White Mountains?

In Humanities class we have been reading this book called White Mountains! Before this blog post I wrote another blog post similar to this and it was about How this boy called Will who is a character in the White Mountains like me? I said that he is like me in many ways. This time I have another question and that question is How will Beanpole help Will and Henry on their journey to the White Mountains? Now, Beanpole is another character in this story and what I am thinking is that maybe soon he will also be another main character of this story. Beanpole is a person that wears glasses,speaks english, french and is ready to join Will and Henry on their journey to the White Mountains.

I am going to now answer the question: How will Beanpole help Will and Henry on their journey to the White Mountains? What I think that Beanpole will be a really helpful person for Will and Henry's journey. I also think that Beanpole is a really smart person, he could help Will and Henry if they are lost, they dont know were to go or maybe Beanpole knows the hole way to the White Mountains. If both of them are hungry then maybe Beanpole can help them find food. If it is at night then all of them are tiered then all the three of them can build a, make some fire if they are cold and they can also find some water if there is any water out there.Then the next day they can wake up and continue their journey to the Mountains. That is what I think that Beanpole is helpful to Will and Henry to their journey to the White Mountains.

Lit circle- White Mountains :)

I am reading this book called White Mountains. This book it about theses tripods that are really tall and they have three legs. They are the robots that came to earth and took over the earth and control's the earth. There is this boy called Will and he is about twelve, probably the same age as you guys are. His freedom was going to end pretty soon, but if he runs away to the White Mountains then there is a chance for him that he will have some freedom. That is what the story basically about. I am going to answer a question that I am suppose to and I have to read chapter 2 to answer this question and I did. I will answer this question in the second paragraph so you know my answer to this question. The question that I am suppose to answer is:

How is Will just like you?

Well, Will is like me in many ways he is about twelve and I am going to be twelve. He has been token over by robots and I have have been taken over by my brother almost everyday. He has a best friend called Jack and I have a best friend, that is something that everyone has but still and he is like me and other ways as well. By knowing that we are common in a lot of ways I think that it is really interesting. That is all I can say that Will is some sort in a way like me.

There is all the information from me for that question "How is WIll just like you?". I would say that the book White Mountains is an ok book for me because I actually don't like reading. Maybe for you might like to read books so if you are looking for a book then you can maybe read White Mountains if you want. Also if you do read the book then I hope you will really enjoy it. Now here is a question to you How is Will just like you? (if you ever read this book then you can answer this question!).
