By the time creating the topic proposal

As long as we get started to learn the Native American studies, I really got a lot of information and interesting culture background. I was really curious on other countries' culture and human background when I was a little girl. The special tradtions, beautuful clothing, great food history and also Native American's postive attitude are all the reason I intoxicated by the beauty of the distinctive Native American Tribes.

Now I just realized that I've seen some Native American have been showed in the movies I've watched before, and I started felt interested in them by that time.

I'm happy to read the book written by Sherman Alexie. He's a great writer, also a great part-time Indian maker. I have to say the book impressed me so much, and I cannot forget some pieces in the book until now. The way Sherman created the book is kind of special humor, but made people hard to forget. Anyway, I believe the life in nowadays Indian tribes should not be that hard anymore. I'd love to explore more interesting and happy stuff from their everyday life. So I chose the topic of "marriage". Hope to know their another part of live, which is the word "love". Since sometimes people feel hard to think of love happened in Native Americans, or that's not the point which people would focus on.

We all talked about poverty, poor-education or bad living situation around Native American. "The is no lack of beauty in the world but the eyes of finding it." That's what I'm going to do. Being the eyes of finding beauty in Native American Tribes, doing the works on describe the most romantic Native American Wedding.

Someday, everything will be fine

Something about Junior which happened in his high school and reservation are kind of little stories combined as a novel. And what Junior did and thought is the thing I learnt from him, someday everything will be just fine.

He has congenital deficiency. He got bunch of teasing and mocking. He was the only native American in his high school. He was nonperson in the school. He couldn't recognize who himself is. He lost his best friend's trust. He lived in the poorest hometown, and walked to the high everyday. He was alone. He was discouraged. He was thinking about give up. He just a normal person, but has much more than that on the shoulders.

But anyway, Mr. P tried a lot to save him. Doing suggestions, and giving him the biggest confidence. Mr. P put his hope on Junior. This is a thing. When someone really relies on you, you must keep going on the way whatever the difficulties out there in the future.

Finally, Junior lost his whole family. But he saved himself, and helped himself to achieve his aim.

So everything he was suffering are the past, those are not big deals anymore.

When we was facing a problem, the one which we thought too hard to break. We gotta drop the bad idea of give up.

Because no matter we win or lose, that's our stories. And someday, you will realize that everything you've been licked the dust is NOTHING. You even cannot remember when you forget those. All since time is going all the way, and we are not that easily to break by life.

I'm eighteen now, and I'm pretty sure I have much longer in the future life. So many difficulties and happness are just stand out there waiting for me to hug or kick.

I'll be there, someday. To see what and how.
