Find and quote one Oxymoron from the chapter or one example of Irony.
"safety sparklers"
This is an example of an oxymoron because usually sparklers are not safe because they warn you to be careful so you don't accidentaly burn yourself.
Why do you think Tally chose to wear a mask to the party that was deemed "white tie?"
I think that Tally forgot that the party was white tie until people started talking about her and also because she didn't want anyone to see her or else they would have found out she was an ugly.
History of masks:
a form of disguise. It is an object that is frequently worn over or in front of the face to hide the identity of a person and by its own features to establish another being. This essential characteristic of hiding and revealing personalities or moods is common to all masks. As cultural objects they have been used throughout the world in all periods since the Stone Age and have been as varied in appearance as in their use and symbolism.

Have you ever had a friend like Paris who abandoned your friendship after moving?
No. Everytime anyone that i've known has moved they weren't really my friends they were people i didn't know. My friends have always stayed with me no matter what. The friends i have would never abandone our friendship.
Terms:
1.Interface ring- a special ring that's like a device that allows you to acess anything complicated or technological.
2.Toothbrush Pill- a small pill that you chew so you can clean your teeth instead of brushing your teeth.

Blog Post#1 Before Reading
How do you define beauty?What would the world be like if everyone was "beautiful"?
I define beauty as being interesting,unique and different. If everyone was beautiful the world would be different because people wouldn't judge each other. Then again it would be kind of boring because we would all probably look the same to each other.
I think that the butterfly is beautiful because it's so colorful and its extraordinary. The butterfly is also beautiful because its unique and there's nothing like it. The beetle compared to the butterfly seems ugly because it doesn't have any colors. The beetle seems normal and boring. The beetle would probably look beautiful if it were different,colorful and extraordinary.
