When I think about my future I feel motivated because I feel like I'm doing the right things to reach my goals of becoming a Marine.  I need to graduate highschool first and everytime I work out I work out hard because I know it's gonna help me get better for my basketball season next year and also to be fit and ready for when I can train to be in the military.

March 23 Journal Topic

Maybe we can't get away from advertisements on politics or other stuff like persuasive communication because the government doesn't want us to be at peace with our own thoughts. Call me crazy but if u think about it we are in a educational system that requires us to know and learn the same things as everyone else in the U.S.  I feel like we've got so accustomed to advertisements on the radio,tv, and on our phones that it's normal for us to hear or see that stuff any minute of the day. Even when we are at peace with our thoughts we have a phone listening to what we say, it's crazy.

14. Added questions

Captain Beatty -"Any man who can take a tv wall apart and put it back together again, and most men can, nowadays" is happier than any man who tries to slide rule,measure, and equate the universe, which just won't be measured or equated without making man feel bestial and lonely."
 
This quote says a lot and stands out to me because he's saying a lot and in a way he's comparing and education system to happiness or reality by saying that a man that can break something then build it is happier than a man who spends his time solving equations for example.

I think this does accurately depict my highschool because school and this education system does stress people out including me and I do feel like I'm alone in this sometimes when I don't get school.
I know students who'd rather work then go to school.

Montag probably feels da because his new knowledge of interests in books is a great burden.

13. Added questions

The purpose of Beattys visit is because he realizes Montag is having a crisis of faith about books.

Fahrenheit 451 note

I think that the girl is not crazy and she's similar to Nick from The Great Gatsby because we don't know if they're serious all the time or whether to believe them
Foreshadowing:"The green light at the end of the dock of East Egg" makes us ask why did he moved to West Egg?

Allusion : In the movie "Get out " this guy is driving out of this mansion, right when he's out the gates he crashes. This is an allusion to when people are leaving Gatsby mansion and they crash.

Sensory Imagery:"The pool of Crimson slowly churning down the drain"give us a image of how Gatsby got murdered
