How do we define who we are?

The way we define who we are is by our character our character is how we act and how we behave, also we could define our self by our people we hung with because they are one of our biggest influence. For example if we hung out with people who have a bad reputation then others are going to think that we have bad reputations just like our friends. This could affect us by getting me into trouble not only in school but out of school; Another example is how we act our act is a big affection of how we define ourselves. For example in Maniac Magee mars bar shows that he is disrespectful because he acted in front of maniac and thought he could do everything nonchalantly. Further more in maniac Magee Mcnab acts like he is the best because nobody could hit his fast ball except maniac so he got angry and started ranting at him so therefore do not try and act like the best because power could get to you and everything could turn around. In my opinion I think that our character is important because it helps us be a better person. Likewise is that people with good character come up top but people who have a nasty character usually is unappreciative. Another is example is that in Maniac Magee had a great character because he was respectful to the beales and Grayson. For instance he was free with everybody in the East and West end and didn’t care about their race. Finale he united the east and the west together because of his character if he didn’t have a good character he wouldn’t be able to bring them together.

=In the Novel Small steps by Peg kehret The quote "A window of understanding opened in my mind and a breeze of compassion blew in. This quote means that Peg is the window and the breeze is the friends so I infered that means she is willing to share her parents with her roommates because her roomates have nobody to care for or maybe their family member live too far.=

peg has a problem with a the nurse whose even refuses to turn her,even though she is in pain what reson does peg have of bieng angry with the nures?explain

In the book __small steps__ by peg kehret The reason peg has for being angry with the nurse is that she didn't flip her as she wanted.The other reason the peg is mad at the nurse is because she kept on aguaing with the nurse.I think peg felt very angry because the nurse got her agrivated and also I think she was mad becuse her sides started hurt.I also dont blame the nurse very much because it was the rules to flip the patients in every 30 minutes .I also think the nurse felt annoyed that peg kept on calling her maybe that is why the nurse didn't flip it.

In the text peg gets annoyed with the nurse for not fliping her this reminds me of when I told my mom to let me have somthing but she ended up geting annoyed and mad at me.In my opionin I think peg did the right thing by by telling her parent on the nurse because If she hadn't tell her parents the nurse would have kept ignoring her even If she needed help.

11/2/2010 put yourself in peg's place,how would feel

If I was put in a cause of being diagonised with three diffrent types of polio like peggy has. I would be frightened because I could not see my parents and also I am in a room with nobody by my side to talk to but myself and all I could do is think how I got this daignosis and how I have all three kind of polio.I will feel scared because I probably wouldn't be able to move my body because am too weak and also it going to be prababy be hard to swallow and breath because of the desease. also it is going to be hard to move for example in small steps page 22 it said it was going to be diffulcult for her to breath.
