Task 1

With concrete examples, explain how Bernice Friesen has created an identity of character with whom you might be able to connect.

I think i connect with Greg the most because he stands up for what he believes in. As much as his father tries to put him down & stop him from his dreams, he doesn't let that get in the way. That's exactly like me, i dont let someone put me down or tell me i cant do it because i know what i believe in & i know what i am capable of doing. In the story , Greg wants to follow his dreams, & study what his interests are , & have a future for himself rather than for his father. I also want to follow my dream & nobody elses. My future is up to me & my career choice. People can always have an opinion & give me their input but in the end it will be my descision & no one elses. These are few of the reason that Greg and I are alike in various ways.
When i have my mind focused on something then i stick to it. I dont let anyone elses opinion get to me, ill listen & ill take advice but in the end its my decision over anyone elses. Just like Greg, it doesnt matter what kind of trouble i get into, because your punishment only last for a little while but your future is forever.
