                My name is Omoze Oyarebu. I am 16 years old. I like watching Soccer matches, playing videos games, and I also like to hangout with my friends to travel or go to the movies together. My goal for English this year, is to do the best to my ability. My favorite book reading in English this year is 'The Alchemist' because I like books with fantasy/supernatural elements in them. I also enjoy the class discussion's and group work.

                                                             Henrik Ibsen

                 Henrik Isben was born on march 30, 1828 in Skien, Norway. He was a poet and a author. At age 15, he dropped out of school to get a job due to his family facing poverty. In 1849, he wrote his first play called 'Catlilina' inspired by William Shakespeare. In 1862, he moved to Italy were he wrote 'Brand', he later moves to Germany. he died in 1906. I think the title relates to his life seeing how ambitious he was very young and he got to where he his. I think the themes of the story are going to focus on how times don't usually go our way.
