The man in this image represents Narcissus from the myth. I think it is him staring at his reflection because in the myth he is describing what he is seeing. "He cannot move, for so he marvels at himself, and lies with countenance unchanged, as if indeed a statue carved of Parian marble.'' This is saying that he is so in awe of himself that not even a beautiful lady could distract him from his own beauty.
My Bucket List 2012-2013
1. Keepers of the Cave by Gerri Hill
I want to read this book cause it has mystery and I like mystery. In this book a girl goes missing, but she isn't just any girl, she is the daughter of the senator. Two FBI agents are sent to go investigate on how these girls are going missing. This takes place in a small town named Hoganville. It has a lot of mystery and that is the main reason why I chose this book.
2. 34 Pieces of You by Carmen Rodrgues
This book has to deal what most every teenager goes through. I chose this book as a teen to understand what most teens like me do go through. In this book a teenage girl name Ellie died from an overdose of pills. She left behind 34 messages and that's why the title is 34 Pieces of You. If I read this book I hope I have a better understanding on what teens go through everyday.
3. Sharp Objects by Gilligan Flynn
This book is about a girl who was basically a psychopath. She cuts these words that she thinks describe into her body. I would like to read this book because I would like to find out why she is a psychopath and why she cut those words into her body.

This book is about these two girls named Addy and Beth. They are best friends and they also rule their senior intensely competitive cheer squad.

When her attacker becomes a stalker he stays protective. To me this is a love story and I would like to read it to see is anything happens between Lucas and this girl.
8. The Color Purple Alice Walker
I chose this book because it sounded like something different than what U usually read and I like different. When I first saw the title it caught my attention because I like the color purple, but I know that's not what it is about at all. I hope I get to read this book this school year.
9. Delirium by Lauren Oliver
In this book scientist have come up with a cure to keep people from falling in love and they must take it when they turn 18. Everyone thinks it is a good idea because if you don't fall in love you won't feel pain. When one of the characters fall in love she isn't looking forward to take the medicine as much as she was when she wasn't in love with anybody. I want to read this book cause I want to see what Lena does when she turns 18.
10. Perfect by Ellen Hopkins
This book is about what most teens today go through. I want to read this book to read about the character's and see what they go through. Reading this book might give me a better understanding on life and just being a teen and what is possible for me to go through.
