The question ! I think I did it wrong ..
I think everyone can change who they are . You can't decide who you are going to be when you're born , it all depends on the choices you make in life . Anything is possible if you put your mind too it . At the moment you sometimes hear people say "you cant change who you are ." Or "you cant change anyone ." Just stuff like that , but it is true you cant change someone , they have to be determined to make the right choices in life and make a new goal to be a better person . Some people just dont care , and others do . I for one care about what people think of me , well actually not to much . If someone doesnt like me Im not going to change just for them , because not everyone is going to like you , you just have to be your self . And , you can change who you are . You just have to put you're mind to it and really just be you're self . Thats all it is . If you try to be fake then no one will want to be your friend . If you're honest and dont care what people think or say then they're going to like you for beig that person who doesnt care what people think of them , you could even be a role model for them . So basically you cant change a person , you can help them , but you cant force them to be someone they arent . You just have to like them for them and except little flaws because no one is going to be perfect ! :)

Chapter 7 & , cue for treason
Chapter 7 ; Peter was now basically considered an actor , so he would preform with the rest of the crew . I guess Peter is doing pretty good for himself since he ran away . The crew and Peter all went to Oxford to preform for a big audience , I would be really excited ! I love preforming also ! Peter sarted to feel some what homesick , I knew he would start to miss his family sooner or later ! They were all on the Abingdon bridge untill Twilight . I remember one time my family and I were in California and we were walking around at mid night and then we all just hung out on this little bridge by our hotel ! Ahha it was so fun ! Aha :) . Honestly since Peter is making such good friends with all the famous actors it would be somewhat intresting just to be in his position maybe , but Peter would have to be a girl and he wouldnt have to get his ear cut off , then it woukd be fun !
Cue for Treason
chapter 3 : As Peter was running away from Sir Philip Peter went to the next town and he runs into some one from the village, who gives him two pieces of advice. The first is that he should not try to go the scotland because Sir Philip is on the look out for anyone that is crossing the border, and the second is to not trust anyone magistrates or law officers. Many of them are Sir Philip Mortons men. peter sees Sir Philip in the theaters Peter runs and hides in a chest.
chapter 4/5 : As Peter hides in the chest his hears pumping and thumping he can hear Sir Philips men opening closing doors and asking questions. The actors carryed the chest onto the stage, it was one of the props Peter hoped to just stay in the chest for a while. They carryed him on the the cart he fell a sleep for a while then woke up still in the chest he couldnt take it anymore so he open it up to look around and the actors where there they didnt seem like they were gonna tell on him. They had a fire they were nice to Peter but Peter thought some one was watching him. He awakes the next morning but before he can say anything a man says "if you say anything ill stick this knife in you."

Cue for treason chapter 5&6
Chapter 5 ; Peter never made it to Kendal road that night , but was willing to try again of course . At first I thought Kendal was a girl he was trying to help untill I realized it was a road .. He took a wrong turn , and then it took him 1 hour to return back to where he was before because it was so dark . Maybe Peter should have brought a candle or even a flash light if they were invented back then . He should of packed supplies ! I would of done that , it could help alot . It's never fun when your walking in the dark and all of the sudden your flash light burns out ! That has happened to me alot of times . Him , William , Dick and Jane were all together safe , they all tryed to open the lid on a jar but they were to weak to even move it . William was scared that he might be hung . Who wouldn't be ! I would hate to live in the olden days where you're punishment would be to get your ear chopped off or get hung ! Those laws are so violent . They had dinner together then went off to bed . Peter woke up the birds chirpping and singing ! It was all peacefull until some one said "if you make a sound I will stick this knife in you !" if that would ever happen to me I'ed run away so fast ! Peter should have done that .
Chapter 6 ; For some reason no one really beleived that Peter was part of the group , they did not think he was an actor . He was getting really deffensive when everyone who was not an actor was saying how easy it is to act and just making it seem like acting isnt a real job , acting is pretty difficult actually , you really have to try and be set out for it . Acting is something you really want to do or you dont want to do , theres no middle . I love acting ! I think it's so fun . Ahaha . Ms . Desmond had gotten Kit and Peter to write something .

Hope you had a good pro d day - mine was great! Saw some great speakers and one of the best things I was reminded is how Learning is supposed to be messy! If it were too easy, would you really be learning?
Good to see everyone finally posting - don't forget to comment now.
Reminder to make sure posts address the question & make connections (not just summary). Edit & expand to your posts by Saturday so everyone has time to comment before Monday.
Don't forget to look at 3 of the other class blogs if you are having some trouble figuring out posting and commenting.
Going to try to post the rubric tomorrow so you can do some self-assessing.

Cue for treason
I just realized its treason not treasure !
chapter 3 ; Peter is still running away just to protect his family , in my opinion i would not run away because that would invole alot of running and hidding , you would have to know how to start a fire if you're by your self and cook food etc . That part conected with me because when i was younger i wanted to run away during a game of hide and seek just so i could be the best at it , but I never did because it was to dark . He went to a mountain hopeing no one would fine him , and no one did . The area Peter went too had alot of big rocks , there for you could easily hide there and not get caught .
chapter 4 ; Of course Peter is still continuing off on his journy , all alone . That would not be fun to be all alone in a place you may not know . Who knows what animals there could be ! I personaly hate camping , because there are all these wild animals and if you're in the middle of no where and you get hurt then who are you going to call ? There probably is not any service in a deserted area and like i said you may be all alone . Peter maybe should of planned what he was going to need to bring and get all packed .

The Big Q
I believe that a persons life is determined before they are born because you can't possibly choose where u are going to be born. You also can't choose what you will do in the next ten years or something. You can choose want you want to be later or in life but you can't say that I will be a soccer player for example because you might not be a soccer player because there are hundreds of people trying and those people can be better than you. I also beleive that whatever you do next is already determined that you will do that. Nobody can say that this will happen tommorrow because you don't know what will happen in the future. For example how Johnjohn said that there was a man named James who was destigned to be a drug dealer and then he started to stop selling drugs, I believe that that was already determined that he will change and stop selling srugs. As people say "past is history, the future is a mystery." So nobody knows what will happen next in life.
cue for treasure ?
I think im doing this wrong .. anyways my response for chapter 1 :
In chapter 1 we learn the main charecters , like Peter and the Nobel etc . When Peter threw the rock at the Nobel i thought that was not smart at all .You shouldn't throw rocks at anyone especially if they are basically a king.. But since he did , Peter got in alot of trouble , they wanted to cut off his ear ! So he ran away .
Chapter 2 : Peter ran away , well he trys to run away from the Nobel and people who want to cut off his ear for throwing a rock . He actually escapes from them which was surprising because that means he must be a really fast runner . I did not at all think he would be able to escape just because the Nobel has horses and other soliders to hunt him down and would be able to catch him very fast , but Iwould not want to lose my ear so I would run away from all of the people chaising me aswell .

The Big Q Answer Revised Plus +
The Big Q
I believe that today, you can change your destiny. I don't believe that life path will be determined on the day you were born. Because I personally believe that a person can still change their life path. For example, A good mother and father gave birth to a boy. They both raised their son very well, and both parents already knew that their son will have a very good life. But when the boy was growing up, he got influenced by his bad friends making him into a rebel. Both parents where sad to see what happened to their son. They were expecting that their son will have a good life, but their son chose the evil path. That's why I believe that what ever you do in your life, it will depend on the path to choose. You can still change the path you have chosen if you put your heart and that you're sincere to change.
I personally believe that a person can change his or her stars. For example, A guy named James is destined to be a Drug Dealer, but as he grow older and become more mature and understand what life truly means, he might realize that selling Drugs is wrong and promise to himself that he will never be a Drug Dealer. You see, when people grow old and mature, they will know what's the good thing or bad thing to do. I truly believe that a person can change his or her destiny as long as they are mature and do the things that they think is right. And I also agree about the clip that you do not need money in order to change your star, all you need is to have faith in yourself that you can change your star no matter what.
The Connection between The Big Q and Chapter 1-2
At the first chapter, Peter, the protagonist, I believe wanted to change his star because he wanted to have a better life. Sir Philip, the antagonist, made a wall on to the Brownriggs' and Bells' Land. The owners wanted to fight back but they needed a lot of money in order for someone to help them to take down the wall. So Peter decided to gather many villagers so that they can help one another to take down the wall. Sir Philip noticed that the villagers where on attack, so he gathered his men to attack the attacking villagers. The villagers decided to retreat since they don't have any protection or something to defend themselves except for Peter who did not retreat. He threw a rock on the wall and a couple of Sir Philip's men saw him and tried to shoot him. Good thing he wasn't shot at any part of his body, but his cap got shot and he got scared so he decided to retreat as well. Sir Philip's men are now after Peter, Peter decided to go somewhere safe where no one knows him. He wanted to get back the land his family owns but he failed. The clip and chapter 1-2 have some similarities, and that is Peter didn't have enough money but he still had faith in himself that he will overcome Sir Philip's power, but then again he failed.
