1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 23.
3. Find the fifth sentence and post it.
4. Don't you dare dig for that "cool" or "intellectual" book in your closet! I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is closest.
I stumbled upon this while browsing a friend's blog. Thought this was "fun" and decided to do it too. =>
Apparently, the closest book to me now happens to be my favourite book now, so i didn't have to go dig for it or something.
The sentence says:
"The word "cat" in my perspective would be spelt "tac", and i could not tell the difference." -Freedom Writers Diary by The Freedom Writers and Erin Gruwell
I guess no one really understands what the above sentence means, it is basically one of the lines in the diary of these youths who called themselves the freedom writers. This particular one has got a certain learning disability, thus the sentence "cat" spelt as "tac" and not thinking its wrong. This book is about how a real teacher motivates her students to use writing as a platform to voice their thoughts and feelings, when society (and themselves) thinks that they will never have been able to make it.
So how about you, what does your book says? =>
