"Spring Break", coming soon to a school near you!

As we begin the month of March, the only thing I look forward to is the end of this month. However, I must first survive the next few weeks in school, and thus have continued to read my new outside reading book, The Life of Pi. This book seems like an easy read compared to The Odyssey and All the Pretty Horses. The current setting, India, is foreign to me, as it is a place I have never visited nor know much about. As for the story's plot, it is almost nonexistant; thus far Pi has only kept our attention with amusing stories from his childhood or influential teachers he has met. One of these teachers is Mr. Kumar, who shows Pi different view points on religion-- for he is atheist while Pi is quite the opposite with strong religious beliefs. In the next couple weeks, I look forward to reading more about Pi's past, but also his futur.
