OP #2

1. I think that Hideo is very responsible because he is faced with a lot of responsibilities. I also think that Hideo plays a sort of fatherly role in the family since there dad is not around very much. I also think that he earned his name of honorable brother because he really helps the Kawashima and is ready to do what he has to to provide for them. I think that Hideo shows courage by finishing the rest of the trip without his friends although I'm pretty sure that he will meet a friend on his way that is going to the same place. 2. If I was in the same situation as the Kawashima family I would get: my heaviest jacket to keep me warm. One extra pair of close so that I could later on change if the close I had on were dirt. My cell phone so that I could call anyone that I needed to. One of my little blankets that wouldn't be hard to carey so that where ever I sleep I would be able to cover up. I would probably get an extra pair of under ware just in case. I would grab a few caprisons so that I would have something to drink. Fill up a water bottle also for something to drink. Pack some fruit to eat. Some chips for a snack. A bar of soap in case I had to wash up some where without soap. Toothbrush so my teeth won't start rotting or anything. Pop tart to eat. Flash light in case were I was going would be dark. Then I would probably help to get my brothers packed up. 3. I found it most shocking when they were on the train and the Korean Communist Army came on and they were looking for the Kawashimas. I think that it was stomach turning when Ko had to hold the placenta because I saw a placenta before and it was gross. I was really mad when the Kawashimas had to get off of the train because I was hopping that they would be able to ride all the way to their destination. I was also surprised that they weren't as mad as I was about having to get off of the train because they new that there was still a long journey ahead.
