 My research topic is about Islamophobia. Islamophobia is a type of non-Muslim people who are disrespecting the Muslims. Islamophobia is a serious problem in our modern society especially because of the many violence that Islamists did around the world, who claim to be a Muslim. In my research paper, I will answer my research question how do violent acts done in the name of Islam go against the principles of Islam?  How has this contributed to Islamophobia?  Just about few decades ago, people didn't really know anything about Islam or things that are related to Islam unless you are Muslim or related to Muslim society. But in our society that we currently I've in, people have made many mistakes about Islam and so does the Islamists. They are both misinterpreting in their own way. I found it interesting to try to find out what was going through the Islamophobic society.

 Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian is going well for me. I liked how Junior and Rowdy were together for the whole. It made me feel like I want a friend like him. But it all changed quickly when Junior was serious about going to Reardan for new school. Rowdy got really mad at him but Junior was very serious about his decision. It was so sad to see their relationship go bad even though they were together for a long time.  I also liked the part where he hits the leader with his book in the face. But I was surprised to see the leader acting so strange to him. The drawing on the book was engaging for the reader to read because its comical and funny. Also, the fact that the words were informal makes the reader think like it's written toward people who are close in terms of relationship.

 On Martin Luther King day, I got up so late because of the overwhelming work that I had to do on Sunday. I had to study for so many things including school work and my private work. I realized that I had to complete them by then because I thought it would have so much more work to do on the next day. After I woke up, I decided to prepare for some of the tests and exams that I have to take in February. After I had lunch with my mom, I decided to go see a movie with my friends because they told me that the movie theater has some really good movies. I went to their house to go there with them. But I thought it was going to be exciting and fun until we realized that it was boring. We instead went back to their house to talk about some school work. It didn't end up bad I think.

 I don't have any big issues for my research project so far but I still have some minor ones. I've made some mistakes on my annotations after I finished two of them. I noticed that my annotations weren't saved on Noodletools so I had to redo everything on the Word document. I used the class time for English and Social Studies to complete my annotations so I didn't have any issues with timing. I was confused about the notecard assignment that I'm working on right now. It was divided into different sections so it was confusing for me to know wether I should use each of them or not. I couldn't ask anyone about it because it became too wordy when I tried to explain it to someone.
