I'm back, sort of...

As you can see, there haven’t been many entries published on my blog lately. First And foremost I wish to apologize to all my readers. Reason for why my blog entries haven't been published, is that I haven't been avle to log into my user. Why this issue has appeared, I have no idea. But what matters is that I highlighted to the admins, and now it finally works again! I also want to talk a little bit about my school year in International English, the class I'm attending, this far. There's been a lot going on. We've seen movies, worked with Americans in a project that is still ongoing by the way. But unfortunately we've had just as much, if not more to do in the other classes we the students are attending as well. Luckily, our teacher has shown us compassion and understanding, by not being to hard on us. If Ann, my IE (International English) teacher reads, I truly thank you for this. Hopefully, more focus and dedication will be put into IE from now on. All in all, one of my favorite subjects is still English and I hope to learn about it 'till the end of my year in second grade.

Thoughts Around "Erin Brockovich" - The movie

Erin Brockovich is a story about a unemployed single mother of three who struggle to make her ends meet. At the beginning we see Erin as she is losing her personal injury lawsuit against a doctor who has previously crashed into her car. Aftet losing the lawsuit, Erin demands a job at the law firm that she thinks is the reason for the loss in court. The movie later follows Erin as she comits herself to one case in perticular, where a water plant is suspected for delivering contaminated water to the residences around the factory.

I thought the movie was great! It showcases working mothers and how some peoples work ethics are. Erin is a woman that never gives up, her kids that is. To me it made me realize how much my mother have sacrifized for me, because she is a single mother and all.
