For English, my class will be reading "Into the Wild," which is written by Jon Krakauer.  This non-fiction book tells the story of the brand new Emory University graduate, Chris McCandless, when he travels/hitch-hikes cross country to Alaska.  

McCandless took on the name Alexander Supertramp, when he started this journey, fresh out of college in 1990.  Scientists estimate that he died in August, 1992, although his corpse were found in September, shortly after.  Although the harsh climate alone could have killed him, they believe his death was due to a certain poison or mold which could have been found in the plants he had been eating.  

"Vivid Dream"

In the book/play "A Mid Summer Nights Dream" Bottom believes that his insane night was just a vivid dream.  There is one dream that I would have time and time again that I can remember so clearly.  My dream started out in my next door neighbor/best friends living room/kitchen area.  As my friends and I are watching the television, with my grandma baby sitting us, my brother was in "his room" playing his video game.  This is where things didn't make sense.  As you walked through her hallway, it became the hallway in my house, with the rooms of my house.  Although, the houses are built very similar, they are decorated in different ways, which is where you can see the difference.  As this is all occurring, robber's break in and run back to kid-nap my brother, as I run into the kitchen to get my grandmother, I wake up.  .. A reoccurring dream since my child hood.  Weird.
