Introduction

My name is Brittany.  I'm a junior.  I'm in choir, and have been for four years so far.  I love singing, just not by myself.  I fear that others won't like the way my voice sounds, plus I have major stage fright.  There is no getting over that.  
I have some of the best friends that I need to talk to everyday!  I love to talk and text but when people can only say k it gets really annoying.  I can be fun and be totally serious all at the same time, something I can't do is keep a straight face while kidding.  I get my personality from my friends and family, since I'm always around them.

Symbol Night

Photo From:  helpwindows7.com

I really liked this picture because in the story Night noone knows when their last night will be.  They keep thinking that they will die tonight in there sleep but then they could wake up to a suprise and still be alive.  The picture is kind of cloudy like there would be a storm coming by but it's still calm.  In the story Night everyone had to be calm and stay to themselves mainly, so in a way this picture and the story relate.

Symbol Fire

Photo  From: eyes+on+fire

This photo reminds me of how people had to watch others be thrown into crematorium, some were even alive.  Yet, people were being burned to death it must have been torture to have to watch all this go on.  Also, it reminds me of how they were going to be bombed and would have to watch all of the building go up in flames if they lived through it.  People were put throught a lot there, so they were pretty tough to live up during the end. 

The Importance of Father-Son Bonds

In this picture it tells you that there is a bond between the father and the little boy because they are fishing together.  In the beginning of the story Night Elie's dad has a really good personality.  He loves to help people and he seems to really care about his family.  So this picture reminded me of their bond.  When they got sent to the concentration camp he started to lose his personality and became upset to where he just wasn't himself anymore. 

Inhumanity Toward Other Humans

In this picture it tells how other humans are losing their personalities and their attitudes, which is a big thing to a person.  It's what makes them be them, but this picture reminds me of the Jews in the story night because noone is speaking to eachother, they are very skinny where you can tell they haven't had much to eat, and they don't look like people who you would want to talk to just because they aren't smiling or talking.  

Silence

I thought this picture describes the book Night really well because the Jews would have to stay silent for so long, they couldnt't pray or else they would have to be tortured somehow.  Then some things that were written on signs and walls was in different languages so I thought this was a good description since it says silence in a different way then just English, so others know what it says.  If it's in a language that I can't read I'd be a little suspicious what is says, I'm sure some other people would be too.

Eliezer’s Struggle to Maintain Faith in a Benevolent God

 Photo from:  abilitieschurch.org

With this picture I believe it relates to the novel Night because in the middle of the story some people are questioning their faith in God.  They think that if there was really a God he wouldn't make them suffer through things like watching other people die and be beat.  In the end of the story people start to lose faith in God since nothing good has been happening.  They have no reason to believe in their opinion, but their is still a few people who keep their faith, but also end up dying.
