A perfect Christmas

My ideal perfect Christmas would be downtown. This year my mom and I, along with my grandparents, and my niece are going to spend Christmas at my uncles apartment downtown. He lives by the bean, and I would like to go to the tree and bean, while walking around with my cousin. As a meal for our dinner I would want tamales, chicken, mash potatoes, ice cream oreo cake, etc. after we eat, go down Michigan ave. and shop. While shopping I would want to stop at a Starbucks and get hot chocolate, and take pictures. I hope it won’t be too cold outside so that it’s a good weather condition to walk in. That how I would like to spend my Christmas this year.

The Sun And Her Flowers

The book I read was The Sun and Her Flowers, by Rupi Kaur; the genre of this book is a romance novel. This book is kind of a follow up or second book to Milk and Honey. This book had 4 sections called wilting, falling, rising, blooming. Each section was a sequence of falling and rising. This poet expresses her feelings using lots of similes. My favorite part in the book is, “The universe took its time on you crafted you to offer the world something different from everyone else when you doubt how you were created you doubt an energy that is greater than us both”. This is one of my favorite poems in the book because you should never think less of your self; everyone is made differently and has different ability’s, strengths, weaknesses, and features, embrace them and use it for your better. I  think this books message is to find yourself, and don’t let things overcome you, over come it. This book also talks about loving yourself, relationships, family, self respect, etc. I really enjoyed this book because it was very open.  Overall It’s a very interesting and deep book that will really make you think.
