Space Anne Frank

Decent Essays
Living in the most confined space possible is harder than I think most people realize, especially with eight people under one roof and compressed space. Anne Frank is a girl who knows this better than anyone from growing up in a sixteen square feet “Secret Annexe’’ with eight people. I don’t know anyone that went through what Anne Frank went through but i imagine it must be hard, but if you know yourself that you cannot change it, it’s something you’re just gonna have to deal with it. Anne knew that it was going to be hard especially with her knowing the only time she could express her feelings were in her diary. It may be shallow but it’s the only thing Anne felt the only way she could say everything that was going on between her family and the Annexe.
Anne wrote in her diary everyday on what was going on around the house, and how she felt about her surroundings during that time. All i know is that if i had to live in place as small as that annexe was i would be losing my mind.

In the space that Anne and her family have, it is enough to fit beds and closets for clothes, and everything else you’ll need that is upside as long as you have space for the essentials you’ll survive. I wonder how long they stayed at the annexe, but considering problems that they were having at the time i imagine that it must have been a long time, perhaps over a decade. I also said earlier that as long as you have the space for the essentials, everything will be fine, but honestly you have to have more than that you need space to have a place where you can all talk, for a kitchen, and more, but they couldn't do that which is one of the things that shows their struggle. I have explained a lot about Anne and what her problems may have been growing up, and now i think it is time to think about how they reacted the first time

    When Anne Frank says that, “Everything she does is right, ,and everything I do is wrong!” I think as a result of Margot being a goody-two-shoe because she doesn’t obtain in trouble and she is beloved by her mother, reasons why she is always right. I think that Anne Frank feels like everyone is against her like she doesn’t belong there, again since her saying the word “goat” describes how she thinks that she doesn’t belong in the Secret Annex with her friends and family. I also think that she feels like everyone won’t accept her, even though she tries so much, by her saying that, “You’re all against me!” meaning that everyone in the Secret Annex won’t accept or are against…

    When Anne Frank was still alive and she lived in the annex it was an indiscretion to not realize that it was not always enjoyable or fun.

    In the beginning, Anne lives in her house with no worry other than if a boy likes her or not; she feels safe and comfortable, as Lina felt in the moment before the Soviets burst into her home. Then, when Margot is called to a work camp—whose conditions would be similar to those of Lina’s camp—the Franks are rushed to the Secret Annexe where they would be joined by the Van Daans. It is described by Anne to be “not…so well organized” (Frank 16) until she and her father tidy it, well-hidden, and okay. However, through the course of the novel Anne finds the Secret Annexe to be cramped with the eight inhabitants and the inability to even crack a window, similar to the train the Vilkas family journeyed in. She also finds the forced quiet difficult, the “atmosphere…strained” (Frank 208), and the environment of relentless criticism irritating.…
