“You can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you.” Dale Carnegie
Interpret the quote above–tell us what it means to you, in your own words. Do you agree that taking an interest in other people is a way to make friends? What if nobody practiced that theory? What would happen then? As we begin to read our first novel, Stargirl, make a connection between the main characters and the quote.
ps–please, please, please use correct grammar and punctuation for this post. I was rather lenient with the grades for the last post. Capitalize I when referring to yourself.
Muchos gracias,

I find it appropriate to write about 9/11 since today happens to be 9/11. It has been six years since the attacks, and this took place when most of you were only nine or ten-years-old. I, on the other hand, was much older than that! I felt strongly when it happened, I still think about what an awful tragedy that was, and I fear for another one. My questions to you are: Do you feel the same? Is it difficult for you to really comprehend the magnitude of the attacks since you were so young when it happened? Has your view on that day changed since you’ve grown a bit older?
Answer the following questions, add some of your own opinions in, and make it an interesting and insightful post. I’m looking forward to reading what you have to say!
