=Blog Entry #2 (Chapter two-The luck of the Beothuks)=

After learning about the character's in chapter one, I wanted to try connecting a story/experince from one of the characters. In the beginning of chapter two, Percy is sent to the Principals office after being in a fight with Justin. As he enters the principals office, being nervous he finally sits down and closes the door after being asked to. They talked about the fight and how it happened. Principal Michaels also asked Percy if their were any problems he might be facing in school. He told Percy that there were reports from his teachers that he's been slowly drifting away from his fellow classmates. He then told him that he was going to call his parents". When he said that, Percy became sad and dissappointed because the principal forgot that Percy didn't have a dad. After excusing himself from the principals office, Percy went to the bathroom and forced a pin around his left nipple and kept repeating the same process for a few minutes. I think he did that in order to release the pain and sadness he was facing after talking to the the principal.

The reason why I chose this chapter to blog is because I can somewhat connect the feeling of Percy being sent to the principals office after getting in trouble or just to talk about any problems we may have. When I was in grade 3, I was sent to the principals office two times. The first reason was because I was being very disrespectful to my classmat by taunting him with provanity. And the second reason was I did a dare that was inappropriate. We'll leave this one aside haha. Anyways during that young age, I never realized how being sent to the principals office can be so scary. Even being told to be sent there gives me the chills ! Sitting and and discussing the problem you did can make you think your going to go to prison. It makes you feel very nervous with a bit of sadness, not knowing the decision he or she will make. Even today as a high school student, I still receive those feelings I'm called to the Principal's office for any reason. In Percy's story, I can understand his emotions and feelings, but he kept his cool. Except the part when he was piercing his nipple with a needle! But even for a person who knows better,and is considered a good person,everyone is sent there atleast once in their life.
