i really liked into the wild. it was a good book because it showed a diffrent perspective of life rather than the one im used to hearing about all the time. it shows that people dont just have to live life one way and do what their parents have planed but that they could just leave.i thought it was a great book kinda sad but it showed me a whole new way that my life could go. i would suggest it to anybody.



i think chirs was'nt crazy i think that what he did was a little stupid but he anted to get away from things so he walked into the wild and he lived off of what he knew and what he could get his hands on but he almost never accepted help or money. i do not agree with his critics i think he was doing what he wante and even though he didnt plan on dieing they have no right to call him crazy because to chris the wild was his sanctuary

The movie helped me understand some of the scenes from the book that were hard to comprehend. I epically liked the part when they were in slate city because it helped to show what it looked like there. i also liked the parts where we got to see the terain around the bus and what the bus looked like because it shed some light on what the inside of the bus looked like and how big it was. I didnt like how they changed the order so its flashback bus flashback and then the bus again but other than that i liked music.

on the belt i would make i would put the woodloch pines logo on the belt buckle because woodloch is like my second home. i would also put a canoe on it because i took a 12 day canoe trip. i would put a picture of the falston swim team logo on it because i swim for them in the summer, a running shoe because i love to run, a picture of a water fall because i like water, a dog because i like dogs, a blue cross for the broad street run i do every year, a picture of the philidelphia insuraces triatholan symbol and a picture of a thunder storm with liightning coming down because i like the rain and it makes me happy(most of the time)
