NAZI

The Nazi was made from the ruler of germany Adolf Hitler. From History.com it states that  “the group promoted German pride and anti-Semitism, and expressed dissatisfaction with the terms of the Treaty of Versailles, the 1919 peace settlement that ended World War I. Hitler joined the party the year it was founded and became its leader in 1921. In 1933, he became chancellor of Germany and his Nazi government soon assumed dictatorial powers. After Germany’s defeat in World War II’. Also from alphahistory.com it tells us that “The Nazis presented themselves as a new political option for the beleaguered and economically desperate German people. There was little new about Hitler and the Nazis, however. Most of their obsessions – state power, authoritarian rule, fanatical nationalism, social Darwinism, racial purity and military rearmament leading to war – were ideas of the past, not the future”.

Allusion Poem Revised

Allusion Poem

I am a tall basketball who loves the game and his family.

I am a person who loves basketball so much I have offers to big

schools and even can even make it to the NBA.

I lead my team to victory and will always have a good time with my friends

I am a person when I was young my dad would push me to be the best

and play him 1 on 1 and every time he would beat me and I would

always get mad and throw the ball and get all mad. I am a big deal to

the school I go to and the school i am going to next.

Beyond all of that I am a person who will fight for my family and

protect my friends. I am friendly, lovable, and  everyone cares about

Me. I am one one of the biggest people in basketball even the pros are

talking about me.  I am named after a pro basketball player but who

mostly known for when he played street ball and got his nickname to

be so special.

Challenging my dad after a long time he taught the basketball is more

than a sport because it teaches you more about life. Basketball will

always teach me in life because it will help me how to control myself

like how i do on the court. I knew he always loved me and even though

he made a mistake I would choose the right thing that was for me and

for him.

"One Thing" -One Direction

The allusion in the song is the line,"Shot me out of the sky, you're my kryptonite, you keep making me weak yeah frozen and can't speak." The allusion is Superman and like Superman, he was shot out of the sky be her love just like superman was with kryptonite.

"Rude" -Magic

The entire song talks about how the dad does not approve of the daughters boyfriend. He doesn't allow the guy to marry his daughter because he doesn't believe that he is good enough for her. The guy constantly tries to impress the guy but the dad still does not approve. This is an allusion to the story of Romeo and Juliet. Their love was forbidden because both families did not like each other. Even though they weren't allowed to marry, they still loved each other. Just like the song, even though the dad did not approve of the guy, they still loved each other no matter what.

“What makes you happy?”

Things that make me happy is basketball, collecting shoes, hanging out with my friends. These things are hobbies that make me happy but the thing that makes me happy the the most is my family. My family makes me happy because no matter what I will always glad to be with them. Even if we fight a lot we will always have a good time with each other because we know that we still love each other. My family will always make me happy because just being with them will make me happy and I can appreciate them because in the future we might not see each other. Also why my family makes me happy because they will always support you and be proud of me no matter if I had the worst basketball game ever they will still be cheering and supporting me.

Basketball makes me happy because I will always have a good time playing, weather it is with friends, club, or school I am always joyful playing basketball. I got introduced to basketball really late because I played football and soccer but when I first touched the basketball I fell in love with the game and I knew that I wanted to play basketball instead of the other sports I played. The first game I had I remember we lost and I cried and my dad tells me that it is ok, you have another game later and lost that one and cried. I knew that I wanted to play basketball because even though it is just a game, I will always take every lost to heart. The most important reason why basketball makes me happy is because my dad played basketball so he is my coach and I want to go to a college and play basketball because my dad couldn’t play in college because he got hurt so I want to get better at basketball to play for a college so I can make my dad happy and it will make me happy because I will know that I worked hard to atleast get to play basketball weather it is D1 or D2 because I can make my family proud by getting this far and living my dad's dream though my accomplishment.

Also what makes me happy is collecting shoes because when i get older I want to have a huge collection of sneakers like DJ Khaled or Perfect Pair. Collecting shoes was just something that I fell in love with because every shoes that I collected and wore on the basketball court or not on the basketball court I wanted to look swaggy with my shoes and make people want to just look at my shoes and make want them. I have a small amount of a collection right now but I want to get more shoes and even the shoes that are very exclusive and very expensive because shoes in these days are hyped like Jordan's, Yeezy, and other shoes, and I am like a hype beast because I just want the shoes that everyone wants.  

Another thing that makes me happy is hanging out with my friends. Hanging out with my friends makes me happy because I will always have a good time with them no matter what we do because we all something in common and we do things what all of us like to do. Most of my friends that I have all play sports so we so most of the things that we do are related to sports even if it is video games or playing outside.
