Why does Joe decide to master time? How does he do it?
Joe is trying to pass time and do something with his brain. He had to do something fresh because he had trouble remembering ideas to help him pass time. “He had to start in like a baby and learn. He had to concentrate. He had to start in at the beginning. He had to start with an idea” He decided to try and figure out what time it is because this is what the world goes by all the time. If you can't keep track of time you will be lost in the world. Joe had been thinking about ways to find out what time it was, but he always feel asleep. Joe is going to count how many times the nurse came in his room each day by counting the seconds, minutes and hours in between each visit until he reach 24 hours. He got distracted because he wasn't sure if he was counting to fast or too slowly. He also couldn't do it by counting because he couldn't stay awake that long let along that long while constantly counting.

Katie,
I think you include some very good points in this blog. I like how you point out that time is crucial in the world and that if you aren't a part of time then you get lost and don't exist. I agree with you on that point, and I think that it is important that you pointed that out. I think you should've gone into a little more how now he creates his own memories and what he ultimately did with time and the temperature of the sun but overall this is a strong blog. Good job, girl!
Katie, this is a good summary of what we read. I think you covered almost everything. But, I think you left out some important details of the reading. But, this is a good blog. Good job. :]
