Final Essay

                " Malice and vanity wear the coat of philanthropy, " Emerson , Self- Reliance, the quantities as a poet contribute the way we learn the change in perspectives, life, humanity, and who we are. Like Emerson describes in the quote, the intentions, desire to do evil or the excessive pride in admiration of others, the love humanity , and just focusing on the quality of life. The poet, " Rushdie" quote explains what a poet is, a poet takes risk, does frauds a poet can do the imaginable, towards life and we know this because we commit mistakes and nothing is perfect due to other opinions and the pride and evilness of the world, so no life is not ever going to be perfect.
                   In the quote of," Rushdie, "we can see that the theme is taking risks and creating ideas or concepts, that, us humans do everyday in our life's; I know this because he describes what we do to create work and how the world spins with us sometimes, struggling to close our eyes due to the unamenable that we do. The tone of this quote is to determine and the mood is to struggle. This quote represents these qualities because it creates the idea of creating your mind to do work and making you think, he describes determine to show that anything that we do as a poet has the courage to chose what's best for them and the world, the struggle to make sure that we do the right thing in life.
                  In addition to " Rushdie, Emerson, and many other poets. " we see that they,  describe the struggle of humanity and the imaginable things that we do in life. For example, the structures of life, which is ethos:the spirit of a culture or a belief and aspirations, pathos: the quality of pity, sadness, and logos: the word of God( Jesus). We learn from the authors, Emerson, Howard, Ray Bradbury, and Jimmy Santiago Baca, by the way that they show ethos, pathos logos by the way they organize what they believe and what's right. In Self- Reliance we see that Emerson explains if everyone did the right thing in life our life would be a better place but if everyone hears all these inspirational essays and quotes then why don't  people change or be better, most significantly why doesn't our world change. Emerson in his essay uses taboo language and logos to identify the spirituality of a principle, as in matter in fact Emerson uses Christianity to influence philanthropy and ethos due to the believe of God and he also uses intrinsic by using the quality of nature. Another author that's influence an impact in humanity was Ray Bradbury, he wrote an article called ,"A sound of Thunder, " which was about going back in time and making the mistake of killing one animal in that timeline that change impacted their timeline and it change their society do to an election. In this article I learn the way that Bradbury uses dyntax and extrinsic to show how one change in a timeline can impact you in the future and describes the fleeting time in the past and future. Toward the end of the story we see how the author uses pathos to describe the sadness of the election and how the other guy gets elected. These two authors prove to us that life is not always perfect and that their are a lot of people who are motivational and that there's a circumstance in life that we have to understand that the world is never going to be Self- Reliant but that it will be fill of mistakes due to changes in the past or the future.
                   Another reason why we know that the world and a poet do, change the unamenable of the world, and how simply we create the imaginable if its negative or positive everyone has a different perspective towards life. Like the article," Right to Your Opinion," the author describes that every person has a certain view or perspective towards an idea where others do agree or disagree and we know this because; a while ago we had an election in where others agree with Trump and others disagree with him. This shows that not only a poet can't change a perspective but they have a different opinion that other poets or people will not agree, and that's what the article, "Right Your Opinion," let us know that we have different ideas but to not be afraid to stand up and let them out. The author, Howard Rheingold wrote an article called, The Art of Hosting a Good Conversation," he explains what it is to be a good leader as well in contrast as a poet who  do the imaginable and describe what the struggle is and the disappointment when we do the right thing and when we commit mistakes. Lastly we have poet, Jimmy Santiago Baca who writes the poem," Immigrants In Our Own Land, " where he describes what it feels to be an immigrant ; if you tell me this shows a struggle towards life, society, humanity and the truth of what a poet does, create and how he views the world and that is not made up of beautiful butterflies but that it is made up also of disappointment and false dreams that do not come true and malice of the cruelty of the world and the pride of a dream.
              Finally a poet can create the world by just simply writing, can create the unamenable by showing and proving all the negativity and also all the positive of the world , because the world never stops the world keeps on moving and no we may not have that perfect world, but I know one thing for sure that my opinion counts, and that I make mistakes like no other human and that there is going to be pride in my life and then false dreams but sometimes we have to think like a poet and tell ourselves that we struggle in life and society. So are you going to be a poet and do the imaginable or just let the world spinning.

WOW, That Was Quick

This semester went by so fast I remember at the start I was new to the blog now I get the hang of it. I also remember that in the beginning I procrastinated do to having many Ap classes and getting use to them, now we are at the end of the semester and tomorrow is the Final Day for this class honestly what's the whole point of finals but what can we as students say, I think instead of final we should have a review day from what we have learn and create an activity or a presentation showing what you learn and how it will help you in life. Anyway that doesn't happen so back to the semester in went by flying. I personally think that this semester I learn more about high vocabulary and life for example self- reliance. Next semester I want to continue doing great in the class and looking forward to learn great concepts and ideas.

My Mad Dream of an Essay

Remember that time you ate that spicy [chile] just before you went to bed on the night before the big [Dance Competition?  Oh, that weird dream you had about the 2016 presidential election.  When you woke up you couldn't quite remember the [all the] details, but after reading "On Self-Reliance" and "A Sound of Thunder" it's all coming back to you now.

The dream started badly.  You were in line with your family at Santa Maria Burgers] waiting to be sent to Mexico].  Everywhere you looked there were posters of president-elect [Donald Dumb], looking like a crazy [pig] who could eat a whole [noun].  

Suddenly, there was Ralph Waldo Emerson telling you, "[Malice and vanity wear the coat of philanthropy ]."  You realized that you have something to contribute to the world so you decided to [go on board with the situation].  But it wasn't easy.  First you had to put on a fancy [clothes] and [name tag] and then you had make a [line] to go back in time to the [election day] so you could convince people to learn about the candidates and the [political issue you care about most].

But right there in the [public place] there was a giant [man and it started [looking at everyone.  People started to [go crazy].  You grabbed a [microphone] from a nearby [store] and yelled [we need to calm down and not make a mistake and vote say something , analyze the consequences and make sure that we wont regret not voting ].  Everyone stopped and listened, so you kept going.

The Speech

Ladies and gentlemen, we are gathered here today, to discuss the actions in our society and in life and what I say may help you or not help you understand the consequences that we commit as humans. I read, a story called the ''sound of thunder" where Eckles one of the characters from this story goes back in time and just kills one specific animal and this impacts him in life and his society because he goes,  back to the present time and realizes that the president that he thought got elected doesn't get elected, due to that one specific change; you all may be wondering why this story matters.  This story matters because we just when through an election where there was two candidates Donald Trump and Hilary Clinton. I don't know if you guys knew that but if you didn't I very disappointed because the first candidate is nuts and the second candidate well, is not as nuts as the other one. I'm saying this because those who had the opportunity to vote didn't vote because they were scare, or due to whatever reason you had. Well, I think your perspective is stupid on not voting because there's people in the world who would kill to vote, but they don't because they don't have the opportunity to vote, but those who do don't vote; Like Seriously!! Be Self- Reliant. Lets all make wise choses by just simply choosing to vote.  A wise man said, " malice & vanity wear the coat of philanthropy.'' Emerson, Self- Reliant. This is my favorite quote from this essay, it matters because it describe the quality of life and how its evil and also with great pride; the essay also describes to speck up and make our world a better place. Now let me tell you a little story about me, as a child I was bullied all through my elementary years. I will get kicked, other children will call me names, others made fun of me, and sometimes I will get beat up from them. I will get home and my mom would ask, "how was school today"and I responded same as yesterday with a sigh. Now I'm not saying this so you can feel sorry for me. I'm saying this because I could of stop myself from being bullied all my elementary years I could have been Self- Reliant and speak up, and have the chance to tell an adult as the same for speaking up to vote and making the decision to vote because we all want what's best for our country, children, family, and us.  As I mention before ," malice and vanity wear the coat of philanthropy" and it is true as I mention in my short story evil and pride is the clue to the qualities of life how being bullied can be shown as: evil, and speaking up can be shown as: pride. Overall making the choice for what is good for our country, ourselves, and those around us have to do with speaking up and never letting the silence of the world catch on to you because it can be tricky and instead of being a follower be a doer and next time when elections come I would like to see everyone who has the opportunity to vote. TO JUST VOTE!!!! So that our society and life can be less complicated by speaking up and making that change. 

Today I'm a Good Human

Today I'm a good human because I just took care of the most annoying children ever!!! Its funny because I love children , trust me they are so cute I love children but when it comes to my brothers and cousins well you can say OMG their so annoying they don't listen to you and then when it comes to other children they're obedient and so adorable I like playing with them but then when it comes to my brothers and cousins well lets say that is not as fun and then they get annoying, but even though they can be annoying at the end of the day I love them and I care for them is just the words I love children and that's what  gives me passion to become a Pediatrician so, today I'm  a good human for taking care of my family.


Literature Analysis

My literature analysis is going to be on a book of a 8th grader you may be asking why I'm going to do it on a book of an 8th grader well you see I saw my brother reading this book and it was a series. For my brother to read is weird he doesn't read so I been observing him everyday he shows up with a different book from the same series is I decided to read one of them and then I realize why it was so interesting for him so here it goes.......
Bluford Series
Image result for bluford

My literature Analysis
Book: Search for Safety
Author: John Langan (Bluford Series)
1. What the book, " Search for Safety " by Paul Langan is about a boy name Ben who lives with an abusive father and a mother who lets the father push them around and sometimes Ben goes to his room without eating. In the beginning Ben life was less complicated until his dad loses his job and starts drinking and then starts getting abuse he try's to work so he can provide himself food and suddenly his da realize that he has been working because he sees food on Bens room and then the abusive father takes away the money because he realize that he has been hiding it. Towards the end we realize that Bens Mom is tired with the abusement and her and Ben go to Their Grandma house and by the end of the chapter we see that Bens dad get arrested and Ben continues being responsible and a sweet boy.

2.  The theme of this book is giving up and towards the end is about giving a fresh start to your life in the beginning we see giving up the reason for this is because Ben would always get put down by his father he would try his best to avoid him and Ben at a point was just tired of life so he would tend to be another type of person instead of being the sweet , caring , and hard working person. At the end Ben becomes a person who moves on and he starts wit a fresh start. The reason why because his father ends up in jail and he and his mom started a new life with a new home and Ben became happy.

3. The authors tone was intense because he wrote in such in a passionate way the way he uses dyntax to make us feel the way the character feels and the detail way he explains stuff and the fiction on how he uses it and then impact in with reality that there's people who suffer everyday abusement.
     How do I imagine the author I imagine him as a person who is sitting on table writing without stopping due to a article they read in other words imagining what Bens life could've been.

5. Literature Techniques (Devices)
    1. Dyntax
        The author uses dyntax throughout the book when he explains the sound affect he makes us imagine what the author is saying and also the way the character feels
    2. Personification
       " And if he doesn't act soon, it could swallow him and his mother forever "
       The reason why is personification is because acting cant swallow their mother or Ben and its giving acting a human quality.
 


well................ now I know why these books are interesting for my brother.

Socratic Seminar Discussions

The last Socratic seminar that I remember was the discussion about the big questions I remember that we had five different questions from five different people and we talked about perfection in life, how would the world do if we were more critical, why do we invest etc. and then we got into small groups and talk about ideas on how to answer our question .

Ideas For Project

My Ideas for my project at first was to cook something and interpret that with Emerson Essay was saying I also had the idea of creating a poster that which will help me understand the quotes and find the main ideas of what Emerson is talking about. Another idea was to do a PowerPoint and then talk about Emerson and my last idea was to create a video and create what Emerson is saying in play.


My Project

My ideas for my project was to do a poster in which I did I did two posters I did a poster on quotes and opinion and I did my poster because it help me understand what Emerson was saying
Image result for uncle sam i want you to be self- reliant
I chose this picture for my project because Emerson is saying that he wants everyone to be self- Reliant that the world would be a better place.

The reason why I put these elements( pictures) because Emerson's talks about love, time, nature, and religion are his main ideas.

Ideas For A Classroom

  1. quote wall
  2. art designs wall
  3. another idea can be something that each of us like and put on the wall anything that you would like to see in a wall
  4. silly wall

My Opinion

Well in my opinion I'm tired!!
ok that's just an excuse how do I know because even though I'm tired I know that I have to do all my posts that I have to do it either way. I'm glad that I only need about twenty five posts and I'm hating it because all the post that I have to do are the ones that I didn't do in August and the reason for this is because I procrastinated and I still wasn't getting the hang of having other AP classes and other things that was going on so I didn't do those posts but when I stopped procrastinating and got the hang I got my posts done so (yay!!!)

I honestly don't see the whole point of doing all those posts but in my opinion what's the whole point of doing it if many of us are probably going to catch up to all the posts to get the grade but we are not going to learn anything and the whole point of doing it is to learn something from the post and then others are just going to post whatever to get the post that they need to because their grade matters
So...............................
I honestly think what's the whole point and for example I'm posting a post about my opinion so that's my opinion

VIGENETTE IN TIME

 I think to myself more often as a young adult, compare to when I was a child. I do this a lot more often I think that it is just the impact of life when your a child they tend to do everything for you, feed you, provide you food on the table, but once you become a young adult (adolescent) you have that impact where you have to think for yourself when you make mistakes you learn from them and we tend to not make the same mistakes. In my opinion being a child is being great you don't have responsibilities, you don't have to care for no one. For example when I was two I remember that my mom left a big jar of peanut butter open and I got up with my little feet up the table and I dip my hand in their and covered my self with it. ( It was funny!!). When my mom got back she was just laughing at me, but if your a young adult you have to take care of your little brothers be the example for them. For example I remember when I was 14,I was suppose to clean the house and make breakfast before my mom came home and instead of doing what she asked me to do she came home and well, lets say that she was mad and then from there she gave me multiples lectures that I'm becoming a young adult and that I have to learn how to be independent and understand that I'm not child. I guess my vignette in time is always thinking to myself gosh I wish I was a child and stay as a child, but then throughout the day we learn that it is just the beauty of life all those stages of life when your born you are a baby, then a child , adolescent , and then crap you realize your an adult!!!

Well, if you ask me I think that it is just the beauty of life and we have to learn that life keeps on going and that we have to figure things out.

EMERSONS CHILD

               In life we have many different opinions that lead us to believe the people who we are, we want to be, and how do we stand up for ourselves at least that's what I believed. In school what do they tell us believe in yourself, you can be whatever you want or who you want to be if you commit and BELIEVE. I personally think that we hear this all over school and people like Emerson, I think is great that they do have that perspective believing in yourself or just the fact that you can be successful in life and it is true; you may be wondering who is Emerson and what he has to do with this well Emerson is an author who wrote a letter on Self- Reliance 2 which we might know what the letter might be about "yourself." In the letter we see that Emerson is a man with good perspectives a person who wants society to be good by every single person believing in themselves. A great place where he might pursue the quality of Self- Reliance is in school with children and teenagers where Emerson can prepare them during career aspirations, goals, after High School and how would Emerson view that specific High School.

                 If Emerson owned a high school it will be about Self - Reliance. I know this because he mentions to live with qualities of life, Philanthropy, and he also mentions God a lot. In addition, if Emerson would go off to a High school where there is hundreds of students and sees the different type of people that are in a High school he would be loss to hear all the career aspirations. The reason for this is because many teenagers have different perspectives and opinions that may not be on what Emerson agrees on. Emerson might  be that type of guy that might change your perspective on what you think in your career, but if he does wouldn't it be funny for him to try to change perspectives if he personally says in his essay that you should be free to express on what you believe in and what your opinions are and to not follow no one to be a doer and not a follower. Due to this in his essay he expresses the fact of love, time, and God, which help us understand his point of you about his essay and how he might give us advice to prepare us for career aspirations. Moreover he might advice us to step up and ask questions, be a role model, believe in yourself that everything is possible, and never be afraid to be wrong. Emerson might give you advice to prepare you for the real world that is full of crap and how it can bring you down. Overall Emerson will prepare you for career aspirations by giving you advice and preparing you for the real world.

                The way that Emerson will view goals is the way we learn and what are children or teens main goals. Emerson world is more view with God, nature, and the quality of life. Emerson in my opinion would want to know why you want to make those goals and what would happen if you don't. First, of all Emerson would want to teach you that life is great and that you have to take chances and take that risk, and stand up for yourself that if everyone does that your whole life is going to be a whole lot easier due to the circumstance that people will make the right choice and be Self- Reliant; but in a further note Emerson says all these wonderful thing but then yet people in the world do not apply all those great things that Emerson says. This explains a lot; so Emerson perspectives on goals and how education can help you by being that person that can make a change for the world and how you can help people know that anything is possible.
           
                 
              In addition the great question is that how would Emerson want us to learn or how to pursue? The way that Emerson would use his essay to teach us the power of his essay and diction is to be Self- Reliant and by this he would want us to be philanthropy, virtues, self- existence, self- trust, the word of Jesus, and the law of nature. In my opinion I think that he will teach these perspectives because these great concepts mention above stop you from being tempted they make you think twice before doing it and I think it is very important because it shows you how life can be rough through very difficult times or anytime at all. I specifically think that Emerson will teach us how to understand life and what we need to do for a great life.

               Overall  Emerson on Self- Reliance to make us understand the point of views of life and how life is short and makes you believe that anything is possible as long as you commit to it.

"Emerson for the Young Buck"

            What I learn about the essay, " Self Reliance, " during the Socratic seminar the first day was that the essay has the perspective of motivation that when people read something they seem to change and when we hear motivation quotes, ideas or people that have different perspectives is that 8they are going to change and our world is going to be a better place. In addition two this we were talking about quotes that got our attention or that had to do with the main idea of self- reliance. Well the perspective of Emerson is that practically that the world is made up of beautiful colors all we have to do is make a change that everyone will do but we have to be real with ourselves that is not going to happen. Well my favorite quote is the one that, " vanity and malice wear the quote of philanthropy." This quote just gave the main idea of the essay explains the significant human quality which creates what Emerson wants to say on self- reliance.

Tuesday, November 1, 2016

Emerson Said It

5  Quotes (Self- Reliance)

  1. Quote: "malice and vanity wear the coat of philanthropy"
  • This is a significant quote because it explains the "love and humanity" in which Emerson explains the significant role of his essay that he creates the sense of caring which explains nourishing, developing, and enhancing. This develops how Emerson focuses on the quality of life in the way he interprets on self- reliance. In addition in his essay he is very motivational and instructive but yet he explains that everyone one can change the world as long as they create a good life the law of consciousness but then yet some people don't apply to themselves. 
    2.  Quote: "Men had look at themselves and are not from who they are"        
  • This quote stood out to me because it applies to the present and the past on what Emerson identifies the men of the past and the difference between the men in the present. Back in the past men tend to be more themselves and now men care what other people think about themselves. Men now tend to pretend someone that they are not and they do it to fit in. However Emerson explains them to be more smart intelligent and be who they are.
    3.  Quote: "The worlds been instructed by kings"

  • This quote was mention in the Socratic in which they mention that this is interesting because its like a leadership or popularity in a way. What the quote means is that their are people in the world who tend to take a lead on anything such as being captain for soccer etc. or like a president trying to make America better. This shows once we have followers in which in the quote they are comparing it as kings they have followers and they always answer or try to do something about the situation they are usually in demand. Like you have to do this.
   4.  quote: " Go love thy wood- chopper: be good nature and modest ; have that grace and never varnish"
   5.  quote: " light, nature, time, souls from the center of the present thought more than a cheerful apologue or parable being and becoming.

Something Interesting About My Book

Something interesting about my book is......
       
Image result for dead letter office book

   Right now I just finish the book ," Truly, Madly, Deadly" by Hannah Jayne and I'm going to start a new one name Dead Letter Office. What I found interesting about the books that I'm reading right now is they all have to do with a very hard situation about abusement or tragedies. However the book that I just finish had many interesting chapters; well my interesting chapter was the fact that the twin sisters didn't come back as a family and they never resolved their issues. Its funny how the book ends by the narrator writing at the end even though the sisters had these conflict they never solved them because life kept on traveling and Maggie never found out that her husband was cheating with her sister and knowing that they never get along. Its amazing in what world we live in, sometimes!

Post about My Choice

Lately I been feeling stressed.........

Yup that's me right now...........
             I honestly think that I'm done with school I just need along vacation but, I'm long from that :(
So, today I was sitting in the couch right after practice and I spaced out looking at the ceiling and all I can think of is I have homework to do so I got up and when to sit down at my table and did homework and eat. But I just look at my tablet screen with my notes and books all over the table looking at my calendar and I just cry.

Literature Analysis #2

Book: True, Madly, Deadly
By: Hannah Jayne
  1. In this book we can see that the author had two protagonists name Maggie and Chloe they are High School students and also sisters that suddenly go through a rough time do to a car crash in which their boyfriends were in. At first it was hard for both of the twins because they were in catastrophic situation and took therapy for it because Chloe's boyfriend died in the car crash and Maggie, Chloe, and sawyer survived.  A month pass they were much feeling better and they had another situation in where Chloe wanted to steal Maggie's boyfriend and then the  sisters will become enemies.  This would lead to a very bad situation and conflict between their family lives and future.
  2. The Theme of the novel is:
  • The theme of this book is burdens from a car crash & stupidity
The reason why this is the theme is because the car crash impacted their lives and they lost someone they love but they're  in high school and have their whole lives ahead of them. The reason why is stupidity is because I won't chose a guy over my sister they are plenty of other guys and your just in high school you have your whole life ahead of you and your future. 

   3.  The authors tone is probably disappointment because this teenage girl chose a guy over her own family like who does that. I feel when she was writing this book she wanted us the readers to know what kind of people are in this world on how they can chose something that is not worth it and that you still have a future and decide that you can find someone better end up affecting you such as losing everything.

My American Voice

Earlier in my journal........

In my opinion speaking up is when to make the right choice to speak up there our times that you can't speak up because it is not the right choice but then they're times where you can speck up. Some reasons that you can speck up when some ones being bully, when you're not treated with respect, when you don't understand a concept in class, and when you're not treated fairly. Some reasons  that you can't speck up is when you're going to hurt someone and when you have no other choice. However I believe that the time to speak up is when someone or something is being treated bad or in a bad situation that leads to speaking up for someone because you know that it can hurt them more or put them in a bad situation. In addition if we do observe quietly then it can lead to.....
  • regret that you could've speak up and you didn't do anything
  • or there times where you can't speak up because it is none of your business
  • then sometimes when you hear something like a rumor and it is bad sometimes we don't tend to speak up because one it may not be true and another reason can be that many people just want to go along with  it
I strongly agree that speaking up is the right choice to do because no matter if its not ur business someone can get hurt especially those if they get bully because one they can commit suicide, have depression so why not speak up and make a change in the world.



* But here's a heads up speak up when it is necessary stay quiet when it is none of your business what I  mean is only speak  when it is going to hurt someone or when you need help shut up when your trying to hurt others or start a rumor or when your trying to make one *


                                                                                       JUST A TIP!!!!!!!!

Team Vocab

When it comes to the elections of this year many people can anticipate these two candidates to surely accuse each other from doings of the past. Each candidate tries to remain stolid but Hilary definitely out beats Trump. Its aggravating  because Trump and Hilary are constantly sticking their proboscis into everyone's business and venomously attacking each other. With each debate America is left suspended to watch the next one just to see the two yell at each other. Both candidates try to hypnotize the world into thinking their fit to be president trying to prove that they can transform this world into something greater, but they simply just illuminate each other's fault.

Today I'm a Good Human

       Today I'm a good human because I helped my mother take care of the kids and I also took my brothers to their soccer games. Anyway I feel that I'm a good human everyday sometimes it may be because I'm nice to someone or because when I listen to someone I have the impact of showing to them that I care when they're talking to me. I feel the qualities of being a good person is just showing someone that you care about them it may not be a big impact but what matters is that no matter how small it is can be the most effective.  So I ask myself why not be a good human everyday? ....... Maybe you will change someone's life!!!!

Literature Analysis #1  

Book: Lost & Found by: Sereena Iannatuonno
  Read: Prologue & Chapter 1
    1) In this book we see that the plot is about a teenage girl name " Georgia'' who was abused at home right when she got out from school and got kicked out of the house by her own mother. The effect was when she got kicked out and so beat up. She had bruises in her neck and her nose was almost broken, she had a black eye, because her mother almost kicked her to death she kick her twice in the head and three times in the stomach. The effect was that she got kicked out and she started working at a restaurant where these two mature boys realize that something was wrong with her so she waited until she got off work to follow her and he realize that she lived in  alley next to a garbage can & he offer Georgia for help and she didn't want to listen so they call their mom to come and pick her up but she didn't want to because she thought it was her mom but then she realize that she wasn't and when to stay when them at their house.
    2)   Theme of the novel: The theme of the novel is the opportunity of giving people chances and the pain of letting go of a bad memory.
   3) I think that the authors tone when she writes this book is the sense of being serious and upsetting. The reason for this is because:
  •   " Answer me you goddamn b*tch!"  she slapped me on the face. I stumbled back into the door. God did I closed the living room door, how am I supposed to escape now." 
  •   " Until you get it right, that's it." She let go of me and I tumbled to the floor.
  •  " Since I'm a kind mother I'll give you a thousand dollars and I'll say goodbye to you Kind? She saying she's kind! She's kicking me out of the house, after she beat the shit out of me. " But-" I started to say but she slapped me in the face and kneed me in the stomach. No buts, do you understand? Now get to you goddamn room & start packing."
I think when the author wrote this she was serious thinking about this girls life she probably had the idea of writing this book by looking at the news by this situation or she probably read reports and created this book to let people know that being abused can affect someone let them know how it effects a person when they're abuse just like Georgia
 4) Figurative Devices:
  1. " As I entered I see my mothers face super red holding something that she wasn't suppose to see"- Hyperbole  I know this because peoples faces don't look legit red as the color
  2. " Big chocolate brown eyes, high cheek bones that always has a rosy hint of pink on them, nice dark long eyelashes, tan skin, wing long wavy dirty blond hair." - Simile because she's comparing her brown chocolate eyes with chocolate.

Mentor Letter Draft #1

Greetings My Yoda,
               Well Hello!! I hope everything is turning out great with all the amazing things that you have to do in your life but I have a great question that I have been having in mind. Is amazing how sometimes I just sit on a couch and stare at the ceiling and come up with the random questions ever but I do have one specific question in which I really could not get to the point is just like...How? Why?
            Anyway my question is about perfection in life. Why do people seem to want things perfect? Why is there one person who is perfect? This is really bugging me and I would want to know why people want things perfect.  Anyway I know you have experience with psychology and how the brain works and why people think that way so I was wondering if you can give me information and ideas on why people think that way.
- Why people want perfect?
- Why is there one person in life perfect?
             Please write back and Thank you and can wait to hear your ideas.
                                                                                                            Sincerely,

Essay #1 revised

         What are we going to do without hugs? Hugs are the best gift ever!! Patriotism is a piece of love that people feel, for their country. In my opinion I agree with E.M. Foster opinion because personal relations are more important than patriotism. The reason why I agree with personal relations is for three good reasons, bonding, act of care for others. I think that these categories have to do with the importance of a hug and how a person feels and it’s good to identify what’s more important then what is not.
           Personal relations, is more important than a cause of patriotism because of human relationships we learn that the act of caring for one another and how to love is important. However, patriotism is caring for a country which is lack of compassion because its not going to show you how to love or how to care back.The use of language that is used between a personal relation is use to show a very powerful impact on a person life. The use of language shows the effective way on how to identify what’s going wrong, to show a problem of the situation the, act of happiness and the feeling to talk to someone. This shows reality due to the purpose of personal relations because it shows the impact of our lives and how it can affect you on the state of health and someone who doesn’t can get affected by frustration, depression, and so much negative impacts in their lives. The sense of having personal relations impacts a person to another person and shows the change in society, that’s why personal relations is more important than patriotism.
         In addition, my second purpose is bonding an impact with personal relations that show the sense of motivation and discipline. When we bond with others it shows the relation of a connection with another person because it shows how others can encourage one another. The reason for this is because when we have communications we tend to have a more positive outcome in our life’s. When we show that positive outcome we see the act of discipline that shows us was urgent versus what is important and the pathos of what personal relations does on a person. However, patriotism is more prohibited with words that has to do with society and the situations of a country sometimes it has to do with taboo language which really does not tend to communicate I also know that taboo language is very powerful but its more forbidden. I personally think that everyone should express themselves freely which shows how personal relations are very important. This shows the syllogism on why personal relations show the significance on why it matters and how I agree with Mr. Foster.
          My third purpose why I agree with Mr. Foster view is because personal relations shows priorities of care. In addition to this care is the idea of personal relation because it shows how we create reality to use our sense of words. The reason for this is because when we tend to care we use our knowledge of words to make someone feel better the interaction of trying to solve a problem or help them, just trying to make that one-person feelings get better. Unlike with patriotism we do show care for our country, but when we do all of it is just stress relief. I think that patriotism is just trying to make the country better but it does not show how important it is to make a person life a more positive environment. That’s why I think patriotism is not important because it doesn’t show the act of language and the importance of making an impact in someone’s life is just the care for a country to make the country a better place; this is why I agree with Mr. Foster that personal relations is more important.
          Lastly, I agree with Mr. Foster that personal relation is more important than patriotism because it shows the three reasons why personal relations is more important because of care, human relationships and bonding. It also emphasizes the idea of language and the use or words and how we develop that communication with others. I feel that the idea of being happy and full of love and trying to communicate is the idea of life.

  A HUG IS NEARLY A GUN SPELLED BACKWARD


Prompt:

Agree or disagree with E.M. Forster's view that personal relations are more important than causes or patriotism.

          

            We nearly think hugs is a sense of happiness, love and care for others or something. When we think of patriotism is a piece of love that people feel, for their country. In my opinion I agree with E.M Foster opinion because personal relations are more important than patriotism. The reason why I agree with personal relations; is for these three reasons human relationships, bonding, and the act of caring for others. I think that these categories have to do with the importance of a hug and how a person feels and it’s good to identify what’s more important then what is not.

         One of my reasons that personal relations, is more important than a cause of patriotism because of human relationships we learn that the act of caring for one another and how to love is more important. Unlike patriotism is caring for their own country is a lack of compassion because it’s not going to show you how to love or how to care back. The use of language that is used between a personal relation is use to show a very powerful impact on a person life. The use of language shows the effective way on how to identify what’s going wrong, to show a problem of the situation the, act of happiness and the feeling to talk to someone. This shows reality due to the purpose of personal relations because it shows the impact of our lives and how it can affect you on the state of health and someone who doesn’t can get affected by frustration, depression, and so much negative impacts in their lives. The sense of having personal relations impacts a person to another person and shows the change in society, that’s why personal relations is more important than patriotism.

          In addition, my second purpose is bonding an impact with personal relations that show the sense of motivation and discipline. When we bond with others it shows the relation of a connection with another person because it shows how others can encourage one another. The reason for this is because when we have communications we tend to have a more positive outcome in our life’s. When we show that positive outcome we see the act of discipline that shows us was urgent versus what is important and the pathos of what personal relations does on a person. However, patriotism is more prohibited with words that has to do with society and the situations of a country sometimes it has to do with taboo language which really does not tend to communicate I also know that taboo language is very powerful but its more forbidden. I personally think that everyone should express themselves freely which shows how personal relations are very important. This shows the syllogism on why personal relations show the significance on why it matters and how I agree with Mr. Foster.

         My third purpose why I agree with Mr. Foster view is because personal relations shows priorities of care. In addition to this care is the idea of personal relation because it shows how we create reality to use our sense of words. The reason for this is because when we tend to care we use our knowledge of words to make someone feel better the interaction of trying to solve a problem or help them, just trying to make that one-person feelings get better. Unlike with patriotism we do show care for our country, but when we do all of it is just stress relief. I think that patriotism is just trying to make the country better but it does not show how important it is to make a person life a more positive environment. That’s why I think patriotism is not important because it doesn’t show the act of language and the importance of making an impact in someone’s life is just the care for a country to make the country a better place; this is why I agree with Mr. Foster that personal relations is more important.

            Lastly, I agree with Mr. Foster that personal relation is more important than patriotism because it shows the three reasons why personal relations is more important because of care, human relationships and bonding. It also emphasizes the idea of language and the use or words and how we develop that communication with others. I feel that the idea of being happy and full of love and trying to communicate is the idea of life.

Fast Food Satire/ Should we Create More

To those who are reading this article is going to be about fast food and if you might get offended or you might not like what's  going to be mention in the article I ask you with all respect to please not read ahead. Thank You.

In particular what are fast food they are great foods that are so healthy for you,  foods that are ready for you,  all you have to do is buy it and eat it.  Mc. Donald's, Jack in the box, Little Caesars  and so many more other fast foods always have the pleasure to cook healthy for you. Wait a second, they're so good  and healthy that many people end up being obese, having cholesterol and diabetes.  Its funny how they ended up going to the emergency room and asking the doctors what can I do to stay healthy but I don't know how to cook ,''oh and I hate vegetables.''  The Doctors also mention that is so great that you hate vegetables because they are very bad for you like  who invent them right.

My question is should people start eating like these people that are doing such a great job on how they eat.  We should instead of cooking a great unhealthy meal at home we should go to Mc. Donald's and eat a Big Mac that is so greasy and that it will help you be so active and make you run like the flash.  Hold up we will be so good looking that we would look so adorable with big chubby cheeks and a big stomach like Santa Claus and then our jeans and our shirts will be so tight on us and they're not going to fit anymore.

Who wouldn't want to look so adorable and live your life by eating the healthiest food ever. To solve this situation we would've to have the president to stop markets because people are not going to cook anymore because they wouldn't buy anything because they are going to go to restaurants  and eat their greasy meals that are very healthy; so why cook at home because the meals are very unpleasant. Overall we should eat all fast foods to be healthy and look good and so that we don't have to cook the horrendous food at home that is very unhealthy and will make your life a living pain.

"A Modest Proposal"

     In my opinion the criteria in, " A Modest Proposal," is true because the author explains the difference between people that were laborers, servants ,slaves ,and babes and how they had different type of  ways on developing their babies. The use of satire in the article is selling babies as foods and putting them out to markets. These families usually have children that they are not in very good economic levels so they have no other choice into selling  their babies. The author is using satire to make the reader attach to the article it might sound gross and unpleasant when your reading it but the author uses satire to imply a political point through society.

My Big Question

Objective: To understand perfection in life and how it doesn't exist?

Why aren't people perfect? Why don't we have the ability to make things perfect? Why do we have some mentality when you do things good you think its perfect? How come some people think that you can do things perfect and then you don't have perfect theirs people with issues due to mentality or having low self esteem? Why is their one person in the whole entire universe that is perfect? What stops us from being perfect? What would the world be like if everyone was perfect? (if every little thing in our world would be perfect?)

Most importantly how did the word perfect existed? Who made up the word perfect?
