post #5 Ferris Buellers Day Off

1. In this movie Ferris and his friend Cameron take Camerons dad's car around Chicago and while they are walking around the city someone takes it and puts many miles on it. Well when Cameron finds out he goes into total shock, him and his friend then go try and relax by the pool and while relaxing Cameron "fakes" drowning because he is trying to realize what he needs to do.
 2.) In the movie Sandlot, one of the young boys fakes drowning so that he can make out with the "HOT" lifeguard.
3.) The connection between these two scenes in the movies definately relate to one another, whether the meanings of the incidents are the same. Cameron went into total shock and was just trying to think about what had happened and how to make it better, while in the Sandlot they do it to get attention from the hot lifeguard, and try to get mouth to mouth. They thought "drowning" was going to make everything better. Or atleast solve the problems.
4.) The whole drowning act has different meanings to both characters. In one the kid was just trying to think about how to fix his problem and in the end he sticks up for himself and trashes the car, in the other the kid only wants to catch the attention of the lifeguard and recieve mouth to mouth from her.

Post #4 House

House himself I believe is most alike to me, he makes his assumtions and after he thinks about it, he understands what it really is, and what is really wrong. With the other doctors they are always trying to figure out the problem right away, yes that's probably what you want to do, well the problem with that is while your doing that the patient is struggling so mean while you need to take care of it somehow by making assumptions to help stabalize the patient.
Doctor House's characater might frighten someone at first, he is who he is and he likes to be able to get his point across. Yes he needed to be with the patients more, but maybe there was something within his personality that made him not want to, maybe being around the sick made him feel really upset. and maybe even ashamed.
I think the morals among the doctors differ, but mainly to save the patients and help them with the pain and figure out the way to help them the fatest.
I think the lesson in this episode is to understand were your peers are coming from, and that they have reasoning behind what they are saying also. because when your in a hospital you have many patients and you're going to have to try and cooperate as much as you possibly can. You need to be able to show emotions towards your co workers without upsetting the patient and watch what you say around them.

Post #3 There will come soft rains

It's was hard for me to understand this story, but the poem I felt summed it up. No one will know that the war is done, or atleast no one will even care. When the spring awakens it will be hard to understand that the everyone is gone, or spring will hardly notice. The whole earth was taken by a nuclear war, no people to take care of.
With this story a person could get the vibe that you need to notice things around you and you need to use them to understand what has happened.
The same things happen in the house each day, like cleaning, make breakfast, and beds. Routine is key.
