Christmas is here!

Here is a picture of my boyfriend and I at the Sabta Claus parade. We had the pleasure of being in it!!!! The business my uncle works for has a float every year and I've been on the float for probably the past five years. I love it and it's a great way to kick off the holiday season.

Eavesdropping


We went downstairs into the halls and found a group of friends (2 guys and a girl) talking outside a locker. We were there for around 5 minutes listening to there conversation. It was mostly one of the guys and the girl talking to each other.  It was hard because people talk really fast, I also think they kind of knew that we were listening to them. I don't think people speak in full sentences and they cut each other off. The girl talked really quietly and I think it was because the girl was with 2 guys. People also jump all over in the conversation. You can kind of make it broken and have people cutting other people off. As well as having topics change quickly. I think that personality comes through in dialogue through the word  choice a person uses and there tone of voice shows how they are. I also think depending who controls the conversations shows if they are more controlling or not. When to or more people participate in a conversation I think that two people talk more then the rest of the people involved so it is controlled by the more dominant people in the group. I think that people converse differently with there girls friends then they do with their boyfriends and some peoples conversations have absolutely no meaning and are just to hear the sound of their own voice talking. Think in spoken conversation it is a lot easier to get the tone of voice a person has and you can learn a lot more about there personality and how they act around people. I think in written you don't get that one and it is a little harder to understand the tone.

Imagery Paragraph

Perks of Being a Wallflower
1)I chose this passage because of all the descriptive word choices. These words paint a picture in your mind, making you feel the same as Charlie did. This imagery helps tell the story more in depth making you visualize the way the character did. 
2)the author uses both senses visual and kinesthetic quite equally. The author wanted to put you in the shoes of the character. Make you feel and think the same way as him while reading it. 
3) The best snippet of imagery within this passage is "or how everything was a deafening whisper". This snippet helped me feel the way Charlie felt in the situation. How everything was a whisper but it was so loud. Everything someone would say you be pounding in his head (at this time Charlie was having physiological problems). 
4)I believe that this imagery is negative. Charlie is in a doctors office being told he  needed to see a psychiatrist again. He's going crazy, but he notices every single detail in the room, things normal people would see but not really look into as Charlie did. The author jumps from topic to topic, from him being in the room with his parents when they were told to a white coat to the character being tired. 
5)The emotion I feel is being created by this passage is dillusion. The way the author skips back and for between topics. How author wrote about how every little detail I felt like I was sitting in the doctors office going crazy. 
6)It's important that the reader is able to be put in the characters shoes. To know now how the character feels so the reader has a better understanding of the character.

Imagery


I'm at the lowest part of the earth, and it's dragging me down.  My core is hollow, with grief and sorrow for my departed wife. I stand alone in this grave with people around, saying goodbye to the women I've found. My body is numb and my eyes weep, my heart pounds so bitter sweet. I look out to see the darkest dim floor, to rest my wife who is no more. I'm done with life I cannot live, I grasp my last breath and then I give. 

Quick Write

If I had to choose between being a carnivore, or a herbivore for the rest of my life it would be a herbivore. Meat is nasty in my books, being a herbivore would be easy. Fruits, veggies, and grains all the time. You have a huge variety to choose from compared to what meat you could eat. Wouldn't you get sick and bored of eating dead animals all the time? Let along all the pollution animal factories and farms make, from all the toxic run off to all the gas emissions the farms give off. For the earths sake aswell choosing to only eat plants would be the best way to save it. 

Quick Write

If you haven't tasted McDonalds, but would like an idea of what it tastes like, do this- make your way to the closest rendering plant. Be careful you may want to wear some sort of hazard suit (incase any pig pieces fly at you). Take a look at the tub of disgusting pig fat (you may know this as lard) and scoop up some of it and eat it. You now know what McDonalds tastes like, also add in a side of animal cruelty, GMOs and some chemicals for flavour and you've got it bang on !
