Nada /The Atticus Finch Effect



 I chose Atticus Finch to be my character because he possesses profound qualities, he also made me see life in different perspectives, both as a father and as a respected member of his community. Atticus does not only stand out for his moral integrity but also for the fact that he builds up, and, mainly, develops respective relationships with his family and neighbors. His control, wisdom, and dedication to justice make him a figure of much respect in the town of Maycomb It's not only about what he does for work but how he lives his life, those are qualities I really admire and want to bring into my own relationships with people. 


Atticus is an icon in the novel for one chief aspect: empathy. He teaches his daughter, Scout, to understand the opposing side's point of view. He encourages her to "climb into another person's skin and walk around in it." This lesson is very close to my heart because I always believe that understanding other people, especially on matters on which we disagree, is essential for developing compassion and rearing relationships. I would like to develop the ability to approach things with such sensitivity and to be able to view life from so many perspectives.


Another aspect of Atticus's character is his commitment to family. He raises Scout and Jem with love, patience, and guidance, teaching them valuable life lessons despite the challenges he faces. His role as a father shows me the importance of leading by example and being a steady, loving presence in my relationships with family and friends.


I hope one day to attain the level Atticus holds so well-being among his people a good person and an influencer of integrity. The fact that Atticus impacts people through this subtle, subtle power shows just how the values of respect, kindness, and understanding should be applied universally. A balanced personal integrity to be there when others need their support or just guidance in one's life as seen in the character of Atticus.

"Before The Coffee Gets Cold" by Toshikazu Kawaguchi || Book Synopsis

In a hidden café tucked away in all the bustle of Tokyo, disconsolate patrons are given the rare chance to travel back in time. But, there’s a catch: they must return to the present before the coffee in front of them cools, or risk losing themselves eternally in the past.  " Before The Coffee Gets Cold ", a novel by author Toshikazu Kawaguchi, tells of four heartwarming, contemplative tales of a magical cafe's patrons that all interweave in the most little, yet enchanting ways. The first, a forlorn woman who seeks to mend a strained relationship before it becomes irrevocably broken, while the second hopes to acquire an explanation from a departed companion. A third character wishes to revist and undo a moment of regret, and the final traveler longs for one final brush with someone they had lost. The immutable and all-consuming nature of time unveils itself as each of the four's journeys progress, gently guiding them to acceptance.  The book uses charming prose juxtapo...

AEP Reflection 5 “Deep and meaningful”

Welcome back you all to another AEP blog! Today, Ill try my best to express things through words! Probably! Today was crazy.. currently in my car and I think I have to word things well here.. So, lets get started!  Today in AEP class, the atmosphere was calm, with the usual quietness filling the room. It felt like a regular session as we were handed a single sheet of paper for the activity just like the last meeting. This simplicity was becoming a pattern~and I found comfort in it.  As we settled in, the familiar voice from Ms. Disa’s phone once again guided us through the task. This time, we were presented with a checklist that asked us to select words we believed best described who we are. On the back of the sheet, the task became more challenging, as we had to choose the words that we felt defined us “perfectly”. It made me think harder about what truly represents me. When it came time for me to reflect, I chose family, art, and leadership. It was difficult to narrow down t...

  December 11, 2024 - Hurdle Defeats us Starting off a game never knowing it will defeat us is truly the most humbling experience in AEP. And in this case, it was Hurdle. Everyone thinks it’s over, but it always comes back to us. It’s truly a battle, a battle between choosing which letters were correct and the placement of it. It was quite humbling to see at the end how blind we were during the game. We did a worksheet that included a graph and filled in the blanks. Other than that, we all recited one detail about a different graph and also read example answers. It wasn’t too difficult or anything like that since I adapted to doing these types of activities. January 8, 2025 - Defeated once again Once again, Hurdle returns to us. But it was quite different, it was somewhat similar to wordle, but you do it multiple times in a row until you lose. To our surprise, we lost after three games. It was quite devastating but oh well. In our worksheets, it included how to describ...
