Divergent

       Divergent by Veronica Roth is a book and movie about love, making the right decision and surviving.
It is located in Chicago after the war and split in 5 factions.
 Abnegation, Dauntless, Amity, Candor and Erudite. The 16 year old girl, Beatrice (Tris),in the movie played by Shailene Woodely, has to make the decision whether she wants to  transform from her faction Abnegation to another, or stay with her family her whole life. The result of her aptitude test, which should help her decide and tells her to which faction she belongs to, was shocking. Tris is Divergent, which means that she belongs in more than one faction and that it is dangerous.
It is also a love story of Tris and Four, in the movie played by Theo James.
       The movie and book are pretty similar, even though the movie did not show us many scenes. Anyways, the scene where they had to jump of the train and roof where really similar. The description of the book was reflected in the movie, and to be honest, my imaginary of the roof and jumping out off the train was almost the same as in the movie. Another pretty similar scene was the scene when Tris got her first tatoo. They explained it really nice in the book and the movie set was just perfect.
        But there were also differences of movie and book. One example is the fight with Molly, first of all the first fight was not with Molly and second of all, Tris won against Molly. The movie kinda messed the scenes up because when Molly and Tris fought, I thought that the movie is almost over because the actual fight with Molly was pretty much at the end of the stages.
        There was also a simulation of Tris where, in the book, she killed herself because she did not want to kill her family, but in the movie she killed a member of her family. It was kinda confusing because you knew that she was gonna shoot herself, but then she shot her family.
       All in all it was such a great experience to read the book and watch the movie. First I thought it is gonna be pretty boring but as I was reading it I realized how awesome the book is and I really got into it.
To be honest I like the book better than the movie, just because there was so much more description in the book than in the movie. Though, I really like the actors in the movie and I am glad that we watched such a great movie like this.

                             

                            Money can't buy you love (or friends)

    I chose this lesson because it is true, money just cannot buy you love or friends. When you think about the things which make you happy, family, friends love or luck, is there something you need money for? No, it makes you happy without money.

   Just imagine a situation at school, everybody is wearing designer clothes and talking about their expensive vacations they are going to and you are the only one without designer clothes and awesome vacations. But you are the only one who just needs love to be happy. They will probably make fun of you because you are different but  just do not care, they do not know what real happiness is.

    If you are allowed to pick one of two guys, one totally rich with a huge house and everything, and the other one kind of poor but so kind-hearted and lovely, which one would you prefer?
I would pick the poor one because I have love and he does not have to give me expensive presents to impress me or make me happy.

    Have you ever tried to impress somebody with your huge house and pool, just so that the person thinks you are cool because you have everything? Maybe you try too hard to impress him or her and forget that love is the key for a good relationship, make him or her something to eat, or write a cute letter, it just means so much more then a 1000$ necklace.

     As a conclusion I would say that love is so much more worth than money, you can be happy without spending money on something and just be yourself and if you want to have money, work.
