The Movie!


Today in human geography we had Mrs. Stathis as our substitute. We talked about what notes we have been taking on the movie so far and we also talked about how the boys must have felt about living in the refugee camps for a really long amount of time. They were there so long and once they were done with learning everything they could while they were there they must have gotten bored. Then we went on to continue the movie at chapter 15. Daniel, Panther, and John Bul Dau have all gotten jobs to support themselves. John works 3 jobs- 1 in a factory, 1 in the McDonalds, and he is also a night guard. Daniel works in the downtown part of Pittsburg processing checks. Panther is working as a busboy in a high class restaurant. Later they all talk about how different the people are in America, they are less friendly and they said that they used to know everybody but now they know no one.  Also one of the boys goes missing and then the police find that he has gone crazy and he is admitted into a psychiatric ward.
