The great Gatsby

While reading the book I found out that Tom is not a man who will show respect but who is a racist man. Daisy is a woman who is gayety the whole time and a sexist person after finding out that her baby is a girl(page 17- 22)

MY LEARNING FALL AND RAISE

December 17, 2019         When I entered the class for the first time I thought that it was going to be like all my last English classes straight from a book to paper but when you gave us the option to chose I said to myself that this English class is going to be different then my other ones but I still came happy and excited to learn and before I would just think of a way to get out of doing work and now care about my classes.         When you told us that we would have different options I said that this class would be different when I entered the class I was hoping to improve my writing and hopefully pass the class one option was either stick to the plain old books and the other one sounded like it was going to pay off and have us come out of the class with a better outcome with an open source learning style which was totally new to me.         At the beginning I thought that I was going to have to do extra work wit...

How did I do in my interview?

Self Reliance 4

•To be great is to be misunderstood. My nephew is inspired by me. He’s grown up with me because we’re neighbors and ever since I stared playing football and he’s been going to my games, he’s been wanting to play too. He tells me all the time he wants to play the same positions I do and lift as much as I do. Not only football but also video games, he’s always wanting to play with me and hang out with me and it makes me happy because I have someone who is inspired by me.

Self-Reliance 3

•Nothing is at last sacred but the integrity of your own mind. Don’t worry what others say, stay true to yourself and you’ll be good in life. If you let others get into your head, you make yourself look weak and easy for others to pick on you

Self Reliance 2

People think if we don’t honor themselves life would be difficult to them. They think hope is gone, but hope is never gone you have to trust yourself. You have to be your own hero nobody would care about you. You have to embrace your fear of rejection to life, fear will destroy you if you don’t face your fear.

FIRST IMPRESSION: On Self-Reliance

The was really interesting, what caught my attention was the first sentence that was written in Latin which would catch many readers attention. The story was really inspiring to convince people.

LET ME WALK YOU THROUGH THE PEDESTRIAN

    "The Pedestrian" by Ray Bradbury is a short story about Mr Leonard Mead experiencing how the authority is so used to people sitting watching TV in their homes at night. He is also feeling the effects of technology its making everyone and their homes at the darkest night look like a cemetery with grey phantoms floating about and flickers of lights flashing on curtain windows. The main and only characters tone is sad and very lonely with a dark dimly lit setting.      The tone is very lonely because the character Leonard Mead is the only real character introduced in this story. With only the police car to be only thing that confronts him. Also while he is walking on his regular night walk he has stated in his story that he has never came across another person on his walks in 8 years. The tone is also quite sad because he has no one to talk to and when the police car asks him if he has a wife he replied "Nobody wants me". Now there you can see that it hurt...

SIMILAR TO THE PEDESTRIAN

It was a cold night just got out practice from the yelling and screaming. I was so tired I wasn’t able to walk, I felt like a newborn deer trying to walk, my arms dangle because they’re to heavy to pick up. As I walked in the cold with the freezing wind blowing in my face, feeling like little needles hitting my face. As I slowly walked down the streets I spotted a cop car in the corner of my eye but I ignored the officer, but once I saw the officer pull out is weapon and yelled “freeze” my heart dropped wondering why he’s stopping me but I noticed that he was looking behind and he admittedly told me to get out of the which I did. Next thing I see is a man with his hands up slowly going to the floor while cop cars rolled in.

THE VALUE OF MY TIME

In the future I would like to stay near sports and become an Athletic Trainer for high school or a college team. The time investment I been doing is finishing my homework and spending time on my PSAT test and avoiding video games. I feel like if I continue this and ask for help from teacher and other people it would be less stressful.

INVESTED IN ME

After school the way I’m gonna invest money is to stay with my parents for a year and get a job.  With the money I have collected I will move out to the university that I will be going to.

YOUNG OLD GOOD BAD Pt.2

He went through the woods for shortcut  midway he found a snake and the snake told him to do bad things.

YOUNG OLD GOOD BAD

I feel like the reason why Hawthorne wrote “Young Goodman Brown” was that he felt everyone’ was guilty for their sins. He had a dream and he was so scared in that dream that he wanted to see if anyone would anyone else would be scared.

SO THIS GUY GOES FOR A WALK

This story the Dr. Preston read to the class was really amazing that brown’s hope was his wife and  natural until he walked trying to find his wife. While he walked with a person who was the devil.
