I choose the poem "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" I chose thiss poem because I think that its the poem i relate to most. It is about the author thraveling a path in life that he doesn't feel good about. I thik that the whole theme is pretty much that you should try different paths in life and do different things since he chooses the road he feels less comfortable with.
It relates to me because i don't like being normal and folloing other people. I think its boring, and how are you suposed to have fun if you just stay back and watch? So thats how it relates to me, and the other poems just really didn't relate to me at all. So thats why i chose to write about this poem.=]]

blehehehehehehehehehhe=/

I have noticed a few differences, and many more similarities from the movie to the book. the bifggest difference that i noticed is that there is no Aunt Alexandria so scout doesnt show her "girly" side. another is that Bob never stabs scout when her and Jem are walking home from the halloween thing in town. These are the two things that jumped out to me most. I know of more but i think these effected the storyline most.
A couple similarities I noticed were throughout the trial things seemed pretty similar. For example, Mayella says her qoute about her saying something the she wouldnt say anymore, and Tom says a few things that were direct quotes from the story. The only difference was how the jury didn't take so long to decide what to do. this part seemed to be the most similar to me.
