In Character

1. Barbie has had a huge impact on our culture. Until the last couple of years Barbie was one of the only toys that young girls played with. I remember when I was younger I would beg my mom to buy me the new and coolest Barbie. I thought that she was the best thing it was something that girls could dream of becoming like a doctor of even a princess it was so much fun to think that you could actually be this someday. But Barbie also had a bad impact on culture many women’s rights group said that Barbie should not just be a nurse or a flight attendant because it was showing that women were second in the work force and men were always the main part. Well the creator of Barbie reacted to that and made Barbie into doctors and pilots. The character is so fascinating because there is so much to her, she could do anything and be anything you wanted her to be. All you had to do is dream.

2. The Cookie Monster was the best he brought so much to young kid’s minds that you didn’t need the fancy cars or clothes all you needed was a cookie and you could keep on living your life just as happy as anyone else. He wanted kids to know that they didn’t need to be like the rest to fit in, come on he was blue and only wanted cookies I think that says enough about who he is and what he stands for. When words spread that the Cookie Monster was going to be replaced with a Veggie fans when crazy they wanted their Cookie Monster back.

3. Kris Furillo from Wildfire I think she is important to our culture because she rides horses!!!! She brings awareness to our country about horseback riding and how it is such an amazing sport but there are many downfalls to it; a horse may get hurt and you can’t run the race or the horse may just quit on you and you have to find a new one. Well first of all she starts out being in jail and ever since she left she has been trying to make her life better and trying to get back on track.

Poetry Critique

i carry your heart with me by E. E. Cummings

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go,my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)
i fear
no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)


1. I decided to read this poem because I thought that the name was really cute and I thought that it was going to be a love poem.

2. The title was the main point of the poem that he or she thinks that their significant other is the way that they live their life, they live it for them and do everything for them because they help them grow into a new person and they will always be together as one.

3. I really don’t know what I would like to learn about I enjoyed poetry and wish I could have been in class everyday to absorb everything.

4. The author used a lot of image in their poem they mentioned on how the heart was like the sun helping a tree grows, which it is also a root of the tree to keep it strong. I think the reader’s tension is on the image that the author is trying to portray.

5. The tone is trying to be more of the love and happy area saying that this person is everything to them and they will always be with them because their heart is always with them and always will.

Writing Territories

I really hate to say this but I have never enjoyed writing and reading I just feel that it is a hassle and for the first month in this class I didn’t know what I getting my self into but once you were our teacher again. You made it a fun class to be in and very relax. So as of now I kind of like anything and everything that we are doing in class, as far as reading I really enjoy reading short stories but they have to interesting like something to do with people that are my age and what they are going through or anything with horses, I could read anything like that forever. I enjoy writing the same thing because I feel like I could go on and on about it because I am that age and I do ride horses and love being around them. I do not write when I am out of school these days, I use to when I was younger but it would just be a lot of random stuff. But now I just don’t have the time. I’m sure I could make time but I never seem to put the effort into trying to make any.

The teenage years are the hardest time in a young girls life. Maddy and Lauren are in the middle of their senior year. Hey Lauren what should we do tonight? Well I don’t I think Mitch is having some people over if you want to go there. Yeah that would be fun. I’m so stressed right now. Why what is going on? I have applied to all of these schools and still have not heard anything and I have no idea what I am going to do next year. I am sure you are going to get in don’t worry about you are so smart and did well on your ACT’s. I just hope that I found out soon you know. Yeah I know what you’re talking about.

#7

1. I have really enjoyed writing about the daily prompts, it makes me think back to when I was younger, and it helps me remember things that I have forgotten or that are just to far back in my memory. Its fun to think of my younger days, I think that it is crazy that I am already 18 and heading off to college. This class has made me realize everything that has happened throughout the years.

2. I really enjoy writing short stories about things that have actually happened and switching it up a little bit. I don’t know if that is my strongest area of writing, but it is the one that I enjoy the most.

3. I feel that I need a lot of structure to get me going. But I only think that because I feel otherwise I will be doing it totally wrong and get a bad grade on it. Also I am not very good at grammar and never no how to do thing correctly.

4. I really don’t know what I would like to learn about I enjoyed poetry and wish I could have been in class everyday to absorb everything.
