About Me

Hi! Thank you for visiting my blog. I'm Dhara and I love reading. My favorite color is purple. My favorite animals are birds. I love the outside and nature. I like to draw and read in my free time. You can find more information on the books I read on the Books page. I also like to bike in the forest and hang out at the park. I can also play the violin and I like listening to music. I don't have a favorite singer or song, but I usually listen to songs that are popular at the time and some songs that I have enjoyed in the past. I am interested in mythology of all sorts, some of which are Greek, Egyptian, and Norse. Mythology has hundreds of different stories within it, some actually true and other are not know whether they are true or not. I think it is interesting to know other people believe. Some are very detailed while others are vague and you have to think about what happened. Some stories of mythology have different versions of itself and it is fun to hear the different versions of the same story because you can compare to see what is the same and what is not. So basically, I really like reading mythology. I not exactly sure what I am going to post on this blog, most likely it will have something to do with books and reading.

Margie Oppenheimer: A Holocaust Survivor

Image
  Margie Oppenheimer is a Holocaust survivor who has an interesting story about the three camps that she was sent to. First, she went to Riga Ghetto where she had to shovel snow. Though it seems like hard work, she said that it wasn't so hard, and she continued working hard so that she could survive. Not too long after she was sent to work at a rubber factory at Stutthof Concentration Camp. Some people think that everyone who watched over prisoners were bad because they were being cruel to their prisoners, but Margie’s boss at the factory wasn't like those stereotypes. He let his employees take pictures of themselves, and cook in his kitchen using his food. He had helped Margie and many others survive too. During a selection at this camp, Margie was chosen to die, but she didn't die thanks to her trusty friends Fanny and Rosaly. They pulled her under the fence and brought her to another barrack. Many things and people helped Margie survive through the Hol

Endings and Beginnings

           As the end of the school year nears, I have created some goals that I want to achieve before it's over. One goal that I want to achieve is getting the best grades that I can possibly get. To me, grades are very important even though sometimes it doesn't matter what grades you get, but I still like to get the highest grades possible. Ways that I can do this is by working hard during class and on my homework. Another way I can do this is by doing extra credit. Some of my classes give extra credit, and I always do them. Another goal I have is to do well on my finals. I am going to study very hard, but not too hard that I'll have a mental breakdown. My goals for the end of the school year are getting the best grades, and doing well on my finals.             Also, I have goals for summer break as well. During winter break and spring break, I sometimes feel like I didn't make the most of my time, so one goal of mine during summer breaks is to record everything I d

Perseverance: The Only Way

Image
    The quote “Success is 10% inspiration and 90% perspiration.”  tells us the truth of getting something done. You can’t just think of something awesome, and then lay back and dream about it. To get anything to be done, you have to get up and do the work yourself. Be determined to fulfill your dream. Don’t look at it for 5 seconds and then abandon ship because it looks too hard or may take a long time. Everything is hard in someway and if you can make it through that, then you can do something that not everyone can do. People might hide from things because they are afraid of trying to do something new or challenging. Being confident and having a lot of perseverance is what makes up role models and good people. Even now, people look up to you, most likely your little siblings, friends or students in lower grade levels, and they might want to be like you. Having a lot of perseverance leads to many good things in life, like being able to get things done and getting a good job. So,
