Words Alive Discussion/Piece of Cake Memoir

Yesterday that we had the discussion of Piece of Cake I enjoyed everything. I was the facilitator of the discussion. When we first started the discussion I was so nervous. Then I started getting involved with all the ladies in the group. The discussion was about how hard it was for Cupcake the protagonist of the book to not have someone by her side to love her. Cupcake had a life of prostitution, used drugs and gang member. When I started reading the book I couldn't believe everything Cupcake was going through so young at 11 years old. That's when the terror started in her life. To tell you the truth I recommend this book to everyone. What I learned is that life is not too easy for other people. I think I'll never understand why life is so hard on humans.

Piece of Cake Memoir in my Opinion

Question number three is the one I'm going to answer.

She realized that everything she did in her life was regret. She wrote the novel so that people would've read her life and not do the same mistakes she did. She is revealing everything she went through in her life.

Piece of Cake Discussion Questions

1)Why do you think it was so easy for Cup to use drugs as if it was chocolate she was eating?

2)Do you think everything Cupcake went through benefited life in any way?

3)Do you think that Cup now in this day she regrets having those three abortions?

The subordinate character in her is Tommy. because he was a guy she lived with for five years. Even though she would cheat on him every ones in a while. She loved him and they both used drugs together.

DOL Five Sentences

1)I assume that Michael Jackson was assassinated.
2)My philosophy is different in raising my kids than my grandmother.
3)Obama has abolish many laws.
4)Dinosaurs are extinct.
5)It's inevitable for me to stop eating.

Manifest Destiny

1)Because there were many different other tribes. That had there own beliefs. Different diets and dress code.
2)NA had: Food: corns, furs
Eur had: tools, horses,
3)NA= land for everyone-based in religious that there is no such thing as "private property."
EUR=legal documents/ titles gave you right to own land-based on beliefs.
4)Because many people have different beliefs. Think about the world for one minute. There are many different cultures in this world. Whites believed that GOD wanted them to own/control all of the land from the coast to coast regardless of what other cultures believed or wanted.
5)Maybe if they would've won the battles everything would be much different now. People would have a different culture or maybe dressing code. Different food, languages. I think Mexicans wouldn't even exist. Nothing would've been the same as now.
6)Animals were destroying crops from areas. Continuation of disease spread. Manifest Destiny= using GOD as an excuse to kill and take land.
7)King Phillip rejected converting to Christianity. NA woman/children who survived were sold into slavery, Europe. "Christians" NA who end up killing Phillip.

NA= Naive Americans
EUR=Europe

!!!!Tickets are Famouus!!!!

I live in University its actually in City Heights in California. Where I live every 2ND and 4Th week of the month a person who drives a big machine and comes and cleans the streets on my block.Every time the machine passes there someone has to have their car parked on the street. So what happens is that the person who has their car parked on the street gets a ticket. It always has to happen to at least one person.Some times my mom is so scared to have a visitor and they probably get a ticket for parking on the street. I'm not sure how much the ticket is but I'm sure its expensive.Well that's what happens in my neighborhood all the time.
