MY MAD DREAM OF AN ESSAY

Remember that time you ate that spicy [Jalapeno] just before you went to bed on the night before the big [Wrestling tournament]?  Oh, that weird dream you had about the 2016 presidential election.  When you woke up you couldn't quite remember the [absurd] 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 a [rally] waiting to be sent to [prison].  Everywhere you looked there were posters of president-elect [Jolly Geter], looking like a crazy [monkey] who could eat a whole [earthworm].   

Suddenly, there was Ralph Waldo Emerson telling you, "[Their mind being whole, their eye is as yet unconquered, and when we look in their faces, we are disconcerted]."  You realized that you have something to contribute to the world so you decided to [be hear].  But it wasn't easy.  First you had to put on a fancy [suit] and [fireworks] and then you had make a [portable time machine] to go back in time to the [rally] so you could convince people to learn about the candidates and the [racism that never seems to stop or end].

But right there in the [rally] there was a giant [crowd] and it started [shouting] at everyone.  People started to [shout].  You grabbed a [bomb] from a nearby [7-11] and yelled [Order in the world].  Everyone stopped and listened, so you kept going.

Listen everybody the choices that you make will impact the future so think about what you say and do, so you don't mess up the future for me and others future generations there will be a point where I would be in your shoes and others too will be face with the same thing handling it different though. However it will still have an impact on the future, so we shouldn't use violence and why fight fire with fire it won't get you anywhere just be in the same stop and not make any progress. Show the youth the good things and not the bad things that the world has to offer. The youth learns at a young age by watching us and seeing how we act and  the choices we make so make good decision. Kids don't grow up to be a certain way they grow up with what they have learn over the years so let think what would be good for us and future generations let make the right choices.

EMERSON'S CHILD

The election was getting pretty heat from both sides to winning votes. Both candidates weren't liked that much or the best fit for the president seat. Emerson would see that Trump was himself and that he actually was being himself through out the whole thing even though what he said wasn't that all good. He was staying true to himself and showed everyone who he was as a person even though many people do not like him. However this cause him to win the election now he will be the new president.

Yes Trump has won it happening it really is it the end of the world that what most people have been saying also R.I.P. America why do people say this because they know what kind of a person Trump is and all his comments that he has said. He plans to run America the way he wants to he is following what Emerson said about being yourself. If Emerson saw this he would been good job trump being yourself and to us he would say bad job. He would say this because all what we have been doing is complaining and nothing about it following the crowd. Starting violence that is unnecessary but shows that we really are afraid of who is running the USA.

We should move as a community together to help out each other with the problem going on and being hear to what we have to say. Letting our voice being hear on what we have been holding onto for so long and now being relieve by saying what we have to. Use what Emerson has said that we should follow so the community can find peace and not use violence. Actions speak louder than words so the violence would be worst and the consequence would be worst so we should use our words there more meaning in them. There are communities that have come together cause of Trump elect for president to protest because they have a voice that may change things they are believe on what they say.

As a country other countries may not take us serious anymore meaning it bad for us, because we have a "powerful" army that will be taken lightly. However we can make it so that we are taken serious. Like show that having Trump as president won't affect us, because he doesn't represent us we are own person who stand for different things. To making this country seem good again the youth are the ones who can change it learn from them. They made not seem like they do, but they do, because they have there own voice and are allow to think what they want and not really care if it follows the crowd or not, because it to benefit them not other to make themselves happy not to do it for others.

We should handle the situation differently from what we have been doing and not follow the crowd but do something that will have the same outcome. Apply what Emerson has said to be our self and not follow the crowd, because there would be consequences to following the crowd. Don't be afraid to be yourself and don't stop you weren't afraid as a kid. Look at the youth they aren't afraid to be them self they are happy because they don't have to worry about fitting in the crowd. It okay to be yourself don't be afraid it a great accomplish to stay true to yourself in a world that is constantly trying to change you so be proud to be yourself it a good thing not a bad thing. Emerson view on the 2016 presidential election would be somethings have change and somethings haven't change from his time and now.

vignette

It was second period and I came into class with my breakfast and listen to music and sat down just listen to my music so I could block out all the noise and also thinking about what was going on that day and what to worry about. Then class start and Dr. Preston was talking that we could come up with the ideas or he could. Then we had a physics lesson and talking about atoms and how we picture them is different from what we have been believing and then class ended it was shock that we could learn something from a different subject and how they are connect in a way.

Literature Analysis #3

The book I chose to read is Lord of the Flies by William Golding 

It takes place in a Island during a war there is a plane full of kids and it crushes and landed on the island which they survive the crash and a kid name Ralph picks up a conch and blows on it to call all the kids together and chose him as the leader. However Jack isn't happy with that choice but still follows. There main focus is to find a way to sign for help, but Jack thinks something else and separates with the group and forms his own group and they do there own things and accidents happen that end up getting kids kill, because of a so call "beast" that they imagine and so more kids end up dying also Jack has some involvements with that. Ralph focus on a fire but it goes out because of Jacks boys and they lose there chance for help. Jack is now trying to kill Ralph but a man from a naval ship arrivals because of the signal fire and prevents Ralph from dying and are taken onto the ship but Ralph is scared now because he has seen what the boys are capable.  

The theme of this story is the conflict between the human impulse towards savagery showed between Ralph and Jack, who respectively represent civilization and savagery.

I saw the cover of the book and read the title and summary and it interested me into reading the book

I hope or except from reading this was the battle between the boys for the strive to survive and how would they plan and see there different point of view.

What keep me reading was how the boys were on a plane and crash and them being confused on what to do, because they didn't have an adult to tell them what to do, so I want to see what they would do.

My reading habit is that if I don't like the book I get bored and my eyes close but if i still have to read it I end up reading it fast and don't really catch everything. However if I like the boy I keep in reading and read slow or reread something so I can fully understand what is going on.

AN EARTH-SHATTERING FART

The story is pretty crazy of what going on and the outcome of the story and how one small little thing can change the future hugely. Also how the author use his description to describe how the character feel and not really tell us the exact mood the character is feeling. The theme is be care how you try the small things cause they can lead to a huge outcome. Also the story was intersecting and caught my attention.

EMERSON FOR THE YOUNG BUCK

BE YOURSELF be strong in the world don't change for anyone, because why would they want you to change just for them where you won't be true to yourself or something that your not. You will just make the other person happy, but yourself not. The essay is called self reliance where you focus on yourself to not be scared to be yourself, because your scared of the other kids making fun of you. However staying true to yourself is more of a challenge in this world where people constantly try changing you. Instead where you try to fit in and losing yourself and maybe not being able to find yourself. So being true to yourself is something to be glad about it, it's a good thing not a bad thing. There will be people thinking bad about you, but also people thinking good things about you.

EMERSON SAID IT

1.) Do not think the youth has no force, I think that people assume babies can't really do anything, people assume that they can't anything that of a regular person, however they are the only free ones who aren't afraid to be themselves

2.)Their mind being whole, there eye is a yet unconquered. Babies when they are born are pure and innocent, because society hasn't change them yet. They think and say whatever they want, they wouldn't care if they says something wrong as compare to us who are too afraid to speak up. Babies are true to  themselves yet to experience to cruel world that awaits them.

3.)Ne te quaesiveris extra, that we should not go out of our way looking for things that aren't us or don't represent us staying true to our self and not letting anyone change us from being our self and not go looking for things outside to change us into something that we aren't not to change for society.

4.) Nothing can bring you peace but the triumph of principles, so nothing can bring you happiness but yourself yeah other people can help you but you yourself can make it happen like some people see the outside of you and see you laugh and smile and think they brought happiness to you but in the deep inside you hide the suffering and the hiding that you kept from others. However the ideas that you can do things changes the mid set that you have changes something inside you which makes you feel like you have accomplish an amazing thing.

5.) Trust thyself : every heart vibrates to that iron string, for me this tells me that trust yourself because you know yourself better than anyone and know what the best thing for yourself and that when you do that you would become strong and that it vibrates with an iron string which mean that it doesn't break or bend and that a strong bond that wouldn't break.

Author In PROGRESS

 Writing today about Emerson's short paragraph I think I did kinda good, because I just like ramble on and on and didn't really get to really answer it I somewhat answer them, I could get straight to the point and spend less time that I did today, because they took me for a while, because I just ramble on. I need to answer the question right away and not get off topic
