My Essay Esssay

Hawthrone communicates this theme by mentioning to his readers that the whole world around us has sinned.

• He then opens his eyes to see the reality of the world in which we all sin
• Brown then is aware of who is around him
• MAIN THEME: the fight between good and evil

My Thesis Statement

I feel that having an essay without a prompt is easier because having a prompt is like having boundaries when writing. Having no prompt lets you have the advantage of letting your thoughts just flow and letting them puzzle together as they go. That is why writing an essay on "Young Goodman Brown" without a prompt would easier.

do. or do not. there is no essay

• stress, anger, crying, and dropout were on every list
• A teacher thought we were crazy because of the way we reacted to the word 'Essay'
• Essay=hard to understand instructions...?

• Hawthrone Effect???????

• Trust isn't just given it's earned. Our teacher showed us to trust him on the first day of school. he stepped out of the class so we can take freely about how our course show be run throughout the year. 

• You can't win if you don't play!!!

• Every time you try and get someone to understand you--every moment of those is an Essay. So when we write an essay, all we're trying to do is make sure that someone understands us.
• We learn best when we love what we do.
• An essay is our attempt to participate in human conversation, on paragraph at a time.

There is no TRY in an essay. You just WRITE.

Literature Analyisis: [Untraceable]

1. Homicide cop Nathan Deveraux is worried, because if there is no body that means there is no case. Alex went to Melanie's house and when she was there she saw traces f blood on the porch. A trail leading down to the edge of a river not too far from the house. But, once she turns around to look back the house was already on fire. Someone had put it on fire while she was there. A lot of questions and scenes came to her head. She pushes all her thoughts aside and runs off to Nathan's house.

2. The theme of the whole book is crazy. It creates tension, suspense and a lot of rising and really quick dropping points. Overall, the theme is Romance and Crime.

3. She may wake up early and fall asleep late. I'm thinking early in the morning because she can wake up really early in the day and have an idea of what to write next. As her day goes by, she's probably busy the rest of the day. Night comes and she is still working. She might sleep late due to the thought of her arranging her thoughts/notes she had written throughout the day.
She probably drinks coffee and tea, mostly tea.
Meditation would be my guess for her.
No, she is very productive with her work and knows her drinking boundaries. She probably wishes she can be hungover and go stumbling to the toilet.
Breakfast... Maybe a good healthy breakfast sometimes. Other times are really fast, quick, easy, nonhealthy breakfasts.

Melanie was desperate to escape her abusive husband, a cop, was one of her clients. Melanie then vanishes for real, Alex is scared of what might have happened, so she goes out herself to look for her. Well a bit back... When Alex had dropped the radar for Melanie she and given her a new identity and sent her off. Melanie or any other client that was cut from the radar never had to give up their true identity. Melanie did, she worked in a hospital just like she did back home, she ordered pizza with the same toppings every other day.

I Care About Your Understanding

When someones doing really good in their life people always tend to throw shade at you, when you're in bad terms they usually like to laugh and feel good about you failing. But when it's them in the situation they don't like it. They get mad, butthurt, and in some circumstances violent... People in the world like seeing others fail.

Why do we get our dreams shut down? Some of our parents shut our dreams down because what may be our dream isn't a professional. Or if may not be a 'career' to them. For example, a singer, a rapper, a hip-hop artist, etc. It may not be secure that we'll get there. But, if we don't chase our dreams are we really ever going to know what it feels like having a dream and going after it. No. We won't because we might be afraid to do so. Yes, it's scary not saying that it can be easy but, if we try then we'll be able to realize a lot about the world.

"If someone tries to crush your dreams, that means they've already gave up on their dreams and want you to give up on yours." 

The Making Of An Essay

Essay in french means TO TRY

!!!! to try to make ur self-understood!!!!

if you write to make ur self-understood it's putting care into something... if someone would read it they'd know if you cared or not.

Montaigne: French philosopher that popularized the essay into

As a tribe, we do better than being on ourselves!




For me, essays were always overwhelming and still are up to this day. Just hearing the word 'essay' makes me anxious. Today in class, I learned that even though I feel how i feel I should still try. Essay means to ‘try’ and thats what I'm willing to do. Essays maybe not be anyone’s thing but puttin some effort and a bit of dedication its secure that we get it done.

Everything Is A Remix

remix: to combine or edit existing materials to produce something new.

• early example; Sugarhill gang and chics....same sample line has been played several times

Everything is a remix!!

• Remix means that you took something that was already existing and you combined it to something new....arrangement and transformation of samples
• Myths of creativity.... literature wasn't about romance 
• a light bulb: represents the moment of insights, nothing, blackness and then you flip the switch and you got light

how do we create?

          3 basic elements...

                       Domain knowledge... speak like everyone else... Copying.... flat out mimic what others have done or do... race, sex,

                       Transformation... taking existing stuff and producing 

                       Combination

Thomas Edison didn't create the light bulb! The light bulb was already created

       

Implications...loss aversion.... two distorting...ideas of property...ideas are property... ideas contain ideas... 

"By idolizing those whom we honor we do a disservice both to them and to ourselves... we fail to recognize that we could go and do likewise." 

                                                               -Charles V. Willie

Train Like A Memory Champion

I learned that we're all different. We each have our own way/s of memorizing things. We either remember by standing in front of a mirror, grouping, writing it down, rhymes, reading back and forth, and using pictures. Each of us learns differently, whether we learn different or not, at the end of the day we all learn the same thing. The more we learn to do something, the easier it'll be. For example, memorizing short/long passages.

Getting To Know You

In class today we did all participated in an activity, to where we had written an important/interesting/private fact about ourselves. Once we had done that the teacher had picked several that he thought were interesting and playful to the mind. We then had to guess what fact belonged with what classmate. This activity made each and every one of us come closer. We learned more about those who were surrounded by. This game also brought a lot of discussion into the classroom. We were shocked at who did what, who knows how, who can, etc. An activity/game really brings everyone together whether we know each other or not.
