Tony
Native, spiritual, afraid and naive
Son of Old Sitting Bull
born on Christmas eve
Who loves hamburgers, cars and rain
He feels fear, anger and pain
Needs peace, family and friends
Fears cops, demons and people that pretends
He gives shit and doesn’t bother of who he hits
no matter if it’s a carpet of fleece, geese or a filthy police.
Wishes to see the raindrops fall, the crops to grow and the grains to show.
Conditions are bad, a lack of food and he’s in a bad mood.

A)
I think we watched the episode because it was really relevant to our topic about racism and prejudices. In the episode is the women convinced that her new neighbour from the Middle-East is a terrorist. The message in this show is that we sholdn't judge people without knowing them. There are millions of foreigners, and less than 1% of them are terrorists.

B)
Using humour is a  good way to approach sensitive topics. If we can make comedy out of it, it will make it not as taboo as it might be today. On the other hand you must know who you are talking to. Some people might think it's funny and laugh of it, but other's can feel hurt. They aren't sure if it's only a joke or if the person who says it really means what he/she are saying.
So we need to be sure that they don't feel harassed, but see the funny side of it instead. If more and more people think it's ok to joke about it, then it will take some of the prejudices away.

Oppgåve C

Den høge mørkhåra guten kjem inn 5min før timen begynn. Han er nokså blek i det han kjem inn i rommet med musikk på øra. Han tenkjer på fotballtreninga han skal på seinare og sjølvsagt bandykølla si. Han set seg ned og er snill med klassekameratane.

INDIVIDUAL WRITING TASKS

•    Which of these last words made most of an impression on you? Why? What do you think this person was feeling at that moment?
Is the mike on?
I seems like this person is extremely calm. Like this don’t mean anything especially to him/her. So I think that this person is a cold person and is not regretting for what he/she have done.
I don’t think this person feels anything when he/she says these words. If that’s the only thing you can up with, just before your about to die, you don’t regret.

•    Death penalty – pros and cons. Make a list. Are you for or against the death penalty, personally? Explain.
 - You become 100% sure that this person will never do something illegal again.
 -  Many people think it’s cheaper than keeping them in jail for the rest of their lives.


 -It doesn’t get better if we take people’s lives.
 - It’s better that they spend the rest of their lives in jail and think over what they have actually done than being killed. 

I’m against it because I don’t think it solves anything. If people have done something bad you just go and kill them? I think we should punish murderers by letting them spend the rest of their lives in jail, to think over what they have done. I mean this is more effective than just let them finish the whole thing of.

Oppgåva B c)

Eg tok eit tygg av maten min. Det første som slo meg var ein herleg smak av oregano og ost. Seinare slo kjøttdeigen inn før eg til slutt sende maten vidare i fordøyelsen.

Oppgåve B a)

Kvar dag går Michael den 20 minutt lange vegen hem ifrå skulen, med Ipoden på fullt volum. Han tilpassar tempoet i forhold til takta på musikken. Når han omsider kjem heim, spring han opp på rommet og sett seg på sengekanten med gitaren i fanget. Der kan han sitte i fleire timar utan og gjere noko som helst anna.

Øyeblikk 1

På buss nr 66 eg sit og over kneisa vi kjem. Langt ute i horisonten ligg Moholt Studentby der det utruleg nok ikkje står eit menneske, det sit 2. På bussholdeplassen stoppar vi, og inn i bussen vaglar 2 papegøyar av nokre fossil. Bussen var full men på grunn av inkompetente medpassasjerar som reiser seg for eldre, ender dei gamle damene opp bak ryggen min. Og i veg som vi køyrer kaklar dei i same tempo. Symaskin, kamferdrops og sviskekompott var blant anna verdensproblemene denne gongen. Ikkje optimalt å avslutte ei slitsam veke med å vere utlerd i undertråd. Takka vere moderne bussar som har ein høgare fart enn dei gamle, rakk eg akkurat  å ikkje få med meg oppskrifta på kamferdrops.

My favorite sports event

My favorite sports event is from a Manchester United match in 2011 against Manchester City. It was a cup game at Old Trafford. A couple of weeks before this game, there had been written a lot about Wayne Rooney in the media. Rumors about him going to City or another club in Europe, and that his relationship to Sir Alex Ferguson wasn’t that good anymore. It was several things that might affect the match. City had established in the top Premier League the recent years, and it was a local derby as well. The whole town of Manchester was turned upside down before this match.
United took the lead by Luis Nani, but later Manchester City’s Edin Dzeko scored and the score was 1-1. The fans of both teams were singing songs about the players on the opposite team, trying to make them loose their head. Ten minutes left, Nani crossed the ball into the penalty area. The ball hit Manchester City’s Micah Richards and changed direction. Inside the box several United players came running, Wayne Rooney as well. The ball came high and behind Rooney. No one, included myself, thought that he could do anything about it. Then he just threw himself and did a marvelous bicycle kick, and the ball went into the upper right corner. What a revenge! This was a kind of confirm from Rooney that he still wanted to play for Manchester United and to do his best for the club. It was also a winning goal. United sent City out of the FA cup with the score 2-1.
My stepbrother was at Old Trafford that day, and I remember receiving a text message from him that said: “Incredible!!”
This is definitely my favorite moment, and I’m sure a lot of other Manchester United fans agree with me. 

Why did you like/dislike the book?

I like this book because I think it’s interesting to see the world from a person with Asperger’s syndrome’s perspective. Christopher describes things down to every single detail, which I never do. Simple things like when  he says that he has made a card to his mother, who he thinks is at the hospital, he describes every figure on the card and how he has made them. There are also several things that affect his life because of his Asperger’s syndrome. For example if he sees four yellow cars in a row on his way to school, he has a black day. If I see four cars of a certain color, I really don’t care.
He doesn’t like physical contact, and when a person touches him he screams and hit them. So when you read this book you understand that there are a lot of things you have to deal with if you have Asperger’s syndrome or if you are related to someone who has it. He can’t understand face expressions either. So when Christopher talks to people, he can’t read their faces and understand what mood they are in.
All this examples has made it easier to understand how people with Autism or Asperger’s life is. They care about things that other people don’t see as important and they are often extremely talented in one or a couple of things. So I think that this was a good book, and I really learned something while I was reading it.
