Wilco Music Review

Artist:Wilco
Song:Hummingbird
Album:a ghost is born

For my music review I will do Wilco. They are a Chicago based band, but I am sure most of you haven't heard of them which is sad. The song I am reviewing is Hummingbird which is a good song. This band is like alternative rock and they are mostly known in western Europe. In the USA most people know them in Chicago which makes sense since they are from Chicago. What I like about this song is that the music and rhythm go so well in this song. I learned about this band from my friend he told me about them one day and I started listening to it. He said "What is sad is that he only knows 1 person that listens to them and 5 that heard about them."
I like this quote from the song
"Remember to remember me
Standing still in your past
Floating fast like a hummingbird"
I cannot emphasize how much the music makes this song so much better. This song makes me play the replay button a couple times. That is just me though. This also comes to show how popular music has taken over when there are many good artists out there.
Listen to this song if you like it well that is good but remember that we have to get to know the artists from Chicago. Hope you enjoy this song!!!

Jay and Nick

In our American Lit class we are reading the book The Great Gatsby. These two characters Jay Gatsby and Nick Carroway are building a relationship and it is an interesting one. It all started when Nick went to Gatsby's party which he has a lot of them. The reason being is that Gatsby is in love with Daisy, who lives right across the bay. He and Daisy were in love until Gatsby left to the War and she married Tom, but back to Jay and Nick. Nick is the cousin of Daisy. Nick to be a good friend helped Jay by inviting Daisy over for tea, and he also invites Jay to reunite them. Jay is nervous in the beginning so Nick calms him down and Jay gets relaxed and starts talking to Daisy normally. Then he takes her to his house and shows her around. While they are talking like a good friend Nick tries to leave them alone. Jay does not let him though because he needs his help. Nick stays and learns more about Jay when he stays. Jay is a good guy I think none of them are using each other because Gatsby sends a guy to cut Nick's grass and then also offers him a better job. It is a win win situation for both of them.

First Draft

So this week we have to come up with a first draft for a winter poem.
I would like to have a lot of varieties of poems
like Haiku: Holidays are beast
They come only once a year
So celebrate them
That is a draft now for a longer poem:
Here we are again
No more rain
Only white beautiful snowflakes
In the garage we now find our rakes
It is time for winter joy
For every child and their New toy
Under the Christmas tree, or the Menorah
While listening to music on Pandora
We all celebrate different things
But every god to us is our King
The whole family giving hugs
Little children spilling soda on the rug
The next day
The children play
While their parents watch in happiness
Even though they know that toy will last one MES(month in Spanish)
We all love that Winter break
And all those cookies we bake
So celebrate the Holidays in cheer
Because they only come once a year
