9/28/12

On 9/28/12 in Mr. Schick’s Human Geography class, we started late because Mr. Schick was not back from his field trip yet so we had to wait for Mr. Schick to return. Once he arrived and fetched the movie, we continued to watch “God Grew Tired of Us.”  In what we watched today, we learned what job’s they got. They would start work at a factory at 7:00 AM and get dropped off for work at 5:00 AM, two hours before they even started. Even though there are four of them in the apartment, the lost boys also feel lonely without the rest of their family. However, as they stay they learn that Americans are not as friendly as people in Sudan. For example, when the lost boys walk into a 7-11, a clerk behind the counter calls the cops saying that a group of tall African Americans just walked into my store. In Sudan, if someone saw you walking around looking like you are lost, someone would ask if you are lost and point you in the right direction.
