Looking Back, Looking Forward

Looking Back, Looking Forward

While you are doing something you often fail to pay attention to what is happening to you or around you. I would say that very few people would consider school the most fun part of their day or even a fun part of their day, but as I look back over the past four years I can confirm that it isn’t near as bad as some people made it out to be and that there were even parts that I would consider enjoyable. I would like to think…

Fahrenheit 451 Reaction Post

Fahrenheit 451 Reaction Post

The way that a hero reacts to a problem depends on what that problem is. In Fahrenheit 451 the problem is the people in the society and how they interact or don’t interact with each other.

Whether or not Montag had just…

Slash Reflective Essay

I would say that on the surface this book further pushes the idea that all Indians are drunks and druggies. Of course, this is not the intended purpose of the song, but it portrays the main character in a perpetual cycle of being addicted to drugs and then going to rehab. If you were just reading at the surface level of this book you could probably make the case that that is the story of the book. Once you get…

Semester Reflection

Reading I have challenged myself in reading this semester by reading a book that is more difficult and requires more attention than the books that I have read in the past. The main example of this was reading A Game of Thrones which was a different style of writing for me to read as well as a more complex type of book to read. I have also improved in being able to pick up details or make points out of some…
