Over the generations I think that adolescence has gotten more difficult and less difficult over the years. In a way adolescence was a bit easier because they had so much freedom and did not had to worry so much about bad people as we have to today. Also in a way i think it is more easier today because kids are not so shy. Nowadays there are much more outgoing and do a lot of stuff with there friends. Also we have more technology like MSN or phones to get in touch with our friends. Back then they had to make appointments at school and stuff like that. Thats why i think that it was easy then and now.

FRIM trip
For me the FRIM trip was really fun. I really enjoyed camping out with my friends and doing activities like hiking. For me one of the challenges were trying not to get dirty so that you are not uncomfortable. the social side for me was good. I think that me and my friends got along well and I made a lot of new jokes with people. Sometimes it got difficult having a really small tent to fit both me and my stuff and my friend and his stuff. Well I really liked the canopy walk because I love being in heights and I loved the thrill of it as well. I didn't really like how there was a mile and a half walk up because it was quite tiring. For me FRIM was a good a experience.

Kira Kira Chapter 3 Responce
Kira Kira chapter 3 response
In chapter 3 At the beggining they where leaving for their trip from Iowa to Georgia. Lynn and Katie where very sad about this and they are also in a new and frightening enviorment. They are different from the whites and dont know how they will be treated, not many people are japenese in Georgia. When they first arrive, they dont know how to act like instead of eating at restaurants they take thier food to go, this is because signs at the restaurant it read "for whites" and "for blacks" their was no place for them. Thier was a lady at thier apartment building, she was white, and being very mean to Katie like putting her on the spot and scaring her. This made Katie very uncomfortable. The girls uncle was always trying to beat Lynn at chess and Lynn somehow always won, she was also very fast at moving her chess pieces. The Uncle even locked himself in the bathroom at night just to practice his chess. I felt this chapter was sad when the white people treated the girls differently because of thier race, and it was surprising that the girls uncle was so jelous of Lynn. Overall this was a pretty good chapter.
