Kanvanaugh

I think that this situation is disturbing but at the same time I feel like people are being hard on Kanvanaugh because everyone shaming on him. I feel like he is gonna get tired of people accusing him so badly and people hating on him. I feel like if I was being attacked that way I would've felt so alone and depressed. That I would've changed my identity and escape all that mess. But also its wrong that Brett possibly raped Dr. Ford. So if he is guilty he should be punished heavily.

My Story

My name is Alex Ramirez I've always wanted to be a navy seal and help protect my country. Today and for the rest of the month I get to show these sergeants what I can do. The workouts were hard we had to do so many push ups, long swims, and long runs in sand with wet clothes on but i got through it. I was ready to get deployed. I got deployed in Afghanistan. That was were i met my good friend David. David didn't have a real happy life. David's mom had passed away as well with his dad when David was 8 years old. The only thing he had left was his girlfriend and she had just been done with him. But some how he still kept a smile on his face. Our base sergeants had told us that we were going on a rescue mission. The Taliban had kidnapped  one of our fellow soldiers Juan. Our rescue team was at the location where the Taliban were holding Juan captive. We had  2 snipers about half a mile. They took out the 2 guards next to the door. Me and David went next to the door we peeked inside and there we could see Juan on the floor. Me and David broke down down the door. All of a sudden we were getting shot at. It was coming from the back so our snipers wouldn't be able to help us cause they couldn't see the Taliban. We decided to make a run for it. One of the Taliban members had thrown a grenade in the house. I yelled GRENADE!!!!! David looked at me I looked back. I jumped for cover with Juan and David jumped on it. He did that to contain the blast. It went off and we were fine. Our back up arrived and took care of the rest of the Taliban. We went back to our base safe because he gave up his life to save ours.

Literature Analysis

The book Of Mice and Men is about to friends that go around looking for a job because they both had to run away from their old job. They had to run away because Lennie accidentally killed a woman. So they both had to run away from that place. They were coming from weed into Soledad Salinas they were going into a ranch to find a job on a farm.George is always a little grumpy because he always has to bail out Lennie out of trouble. They both got the job and by the end Lennie messed it up again. He accidentally killed a the wife of the ranch owner son. The theme of a mice and men is the dream. Lennie and George wanna save up enough money to buy a farm have their own workers and be retired. Based on the authors tone I feel like he woke up grumpy. I feel that way because George was always getting so frustrated and going of on Lennie and bringing up the past which made Lennie feel sad and feel like he didn't matter. Another one is that there was so many character that were always mad all the time. Curly was always upset with Lennie just because he was so big and curly was so small. I discovered 5 literary characteristics in the book of mice and men. The first one was its seriousness of the book. One of the most serious parts is when they kill candies dog. Candy was peered pressure by the workers to put his dog out of his misery. Candy went to his bed and after he heard the gun shot he turned around and just stared at the wall. The book is also really good book when i got to the end I was a upset because it was such a good book in such a small size like the book is only about a hundred pages long. I also saw that the book had some moments that left you wondering what was gonna happen it was a bit suspenseful. Of Mice and Men also had some foreshadow because in the book there was a part where George told Lennie that he is always getting him and himself in trouble so if anything goes wrong to meet up by the creek. By the end of the book Lennie got himself in trouble. The book was also constant. In this book there was a good amount of Deaths. An example is in the beginning when George was talking about Lennie killing a women in a red Dress.Towards the end of the book Lennie had killed Curly's wife on accident. Another example was Candy's dog being killed.

Poetics

Airstole saw poetry as more than one type of writing form. Airstole saw comedy as an epic poetry. He saw common thins that we see everyday and turned into something that is more complex then what we knew. Like for example we all know dancing as something we do to go with music and to get us to get a good work out in. But for Airstole dancing imitates characteristics, emotion and action.

The weekend Review

This week we learned about a stories plot and how to break down a story. We learned about exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution. Exposition starts from the beginning like the start of the story. Rising action is when problems start to arise. Climax is the raging point of the problems.  Falling action is when they're getting close to solving the problem. Resolution is when the problem in the story is solved.

The Plot Thickens

Do you like action?  Then you'll love stories that are driven by plot.  Here are the key ingredients to a good plot. Exposition is the part of the plot that gives the background information. Rising action is when the action is building. Climax moment of maximum intensity. Falling is action where we start to learn things. Resolution is when everything is solved.

Whats your big question

I wonder if dogs really see black and white like how people say they do. I don't think so because u cant turn into the dog and see what he sees. People say that scientist can prove that they cant see color but dogs cant understand English so how can they know what to do. Sure you can try to talk to them but they could just simply being playing and we wouldn't know that they weren't doing the test.

The Making Of An Essay

Making an essay can be difficult for lots of people for many different reasons. Usually because people have a hard time finding something to write about. The way I like to write my essays is just right off the bat because its easier to add on then to think for a straight hour and have nothing. To make an essay easier you should have something in mind like something that you have been reading and you actually understand and know it then start writing your body paragraphs which is your evidence and to close it out go over it and make it like a 2 sentence review of what you had just wrote. 

I am GSD

I don't feel like i am an independent learner because i need help to write stuff and there is certain things that i don't understand. When it comes to not understanding then i can just ask somebody i don't have to get frustrated. Once i know what to do then i can actually focus on it and get it done. Usually a person can't get something done unless they are shown what to do. I feel like everyone is an Independent learner because u can just learn something that you have never seen done before.

Writing About Life and Death

                          The story Katha Upanishad is an allegory because it turns death is something that isn't a life form or something we can't see and interact with into a character a person. Often times people take life for granite and don't realize it till they have a close encounter with death. That's when people really wake up and start double thinking stuff they do and that they might wanna change their life of living. Like they might want to do certain stuff differently.

                          Nachiketa symbolizes whats best by being a teen by being able to be curios because in the book Nachiketa gets 3 wishes from death and the first to wishes were like whatever too him he wanted them but his last wish was his most important. The last one was that he wanted to know what it was like after death like what happened. Death offers him money, fame, and all the things a person think what make them happy but not Nachiketa didn't want any of that stuff he was curious and stuck with his original wish which impressed death.

                       I think the author wanted to represent Death represent as a genie. A genie is something I'm pretty sure we all know because they can grant wishes and that is exactly what death does in this book. I think the author did that on person so we can have more a feeling and understand it more. If the author wouldn't have made a connection like this book would've been more difficult to understand because nobody has ever met death because its impossible and we just simply can't.

                       Katha upanishad relates to things that we should all know which makes the book easier to understand. Life is something we should all take more advantage of. We should living to the fullest without any hold backs because you only have one life. Death could come out of nowhere and just finish with you not everyday is guaranteed.
