(My best friend). “Yeah, yeah, yeah. But it’s really hard to look cute AND aterrador Lily.” I replied. She rolled her eyes and we continued to get ready to leave. Maybe an hour later me and her hopped into my black 1967 Chevy Impala, and headed to la fiesta. By the time we got there la fiesta had already started. I got out of the car and looked at my “broken doll” el disfraz, and thought it didn’t look as good as anyone else’s. Especially with my batted up black and white chuck taylor high top converse. The house that was dead smack in the center of the cemetery stood at three stories tall and was absolutely terrifying. Lily ran up to a group of people who were dressed as a fantasma, momia, bruja, hombre lobo, and a vampiro. I didn’t exactly know anyone there, so I just decided to walk around the cemetery and admire the stars in the sky… and eat some of los caramelos. I also got to admire the cemetery, I noted how every tumba and every lápida was not touched or harmed....

Suddenly they heard the door behind them screech, then shut and lock. Snoop dog got out his phone and tried to call his mom, “Dang, my call failed.” Snoop dog said while sweat was dripping down his dark skin and his braided hair. “Are you kidding me?” The other two said. But what they didn’t know it that they would never forget what they experienced that night. It was early in the morning, I was wide awake, ”Yes! Today’s Halloween,” I shouted.

I told Maddy “my family and I planned on having a star wars themed costume, and we also planned on taking really cute pictures!” “Who from Star Wars are you going to dress up as, Lydia?” Maddy wondered. “I'm choosing to be Princess Leia.” I responded. “Thats adorable!” exclaimed Maddy. “I still have no idea who I am going to… “ Maddy was interrupted by my mom and dad when they called us downstairs to talk to us about something they heard on the news. “Lydia, Maddy, I don't think it's the greatest idea for us to go trick or treating this Year.” “But Mom! Dad!” Lydia cried, “WHY!...

...of Intro to Expository Writing, my academic writing has greatly improved. My writing started as “Elementary school was like a fairytale; there was a pretty princess and a handsome prince, but I was an evil villain.” And has grown to “Through her diction, Walls creates various tones in order to convey to her audience that despite obstacles, it is possible to escape from a dysfunctional family in hopes of a brighter future.” Using How to Say Nothing in 500 Words, I will be evaluating my own writing by discussing my strengths, weaknesses, and how I have grown as a writer. Writing narratives have always been a personal struggle for me. Unless I passionately come up with a story, and immediately write it on paper, my narratives are bland. It is hard to write personal life-changing stories when I have a deadline. One weakness of mine is using colorful words. For example, a sentence from my personal narrative was written as “It was magnificent with its stained green carpet and plenty of wooden bookshelves stocked with colorful books.” In retrospect, this is how it could have been written, “The spacious library had wooden bookshelves stuffed with leather-bound books, which rested on gritty emerald carpet.”...

In business it is important for companies to conduct market research in order to find out more about their costumer and to make their strategic decision. For this ask I will be exploring some of the strategies in conducting market research and conducting my own market research for a chosen product. Stages in the Market research Process: This diagram shows the stages of conducting market research. When companies conduct market research a brief is set out to the market research team so that they know what they are doing .the brief tend to be set out in broad term and will consist of clear instruction and what they company want the market researcher to do for example, how many people are eating ice cream and what is their favourite flavours.

...Mrs. Sen’s The process of assimilation if very difficult for Mrs. Sen. Unlike the narrator of The Third and Final Continent or even Lilia’s parents, Mrs. Sen finds it impossible to integrate into her new country. Her refusal to learn how to drive is the culmination of her distress. Her frustration is voiced loudly only to Eliot, who is dealing with his own distress. There is a childish, tantrum-like angle to Mrs. Sen’s complaints. She even remarks to Eliot that he is much wise than she was at that age; she never thought for a moment that she would be separated from her family. While the reader sympathizes with her plight, her stubbornness seems greater than it need be. Her husband tries to accommodate her, the policeman does not arrest or fine her for the accident, and the workers at the fishmarket put product on hold for her. In the end, it is Mrs. Sen’s responsibility to make an effort. Unlike Mala in The Third and Final Continent – who was equally distraught about leaving her family – Mrs. Sen does not try to adjust. She is trapped in a cage of her own making. As in Sexy, the main characters have mirror images within the story. Here, Eliot and Mrs. Sen are quite similar. He is trapped in his life as well. The loneliness and distress that Mrs. Sen expresses are familiar emotions. He has front row seats for his mother’s sadness. Unlike Mrs. Sen, Eliot is unable to tell anyone about his plight because, again unlike Mrs. Sen, he is truly powerless. The sympathy one has for Eliot...

...arguments usually question or celebrate the transgressive potentials of the book (Giroux; Mendieta), or address issues of masculinity brought into the fore by their literary and cinematic representations emergent in the same decade (Tuss; Friday). However, few, if any, have addressed the literary aspirations of the text and its author. Although none of the approaches to the thematic concerns of Fight Club are unjustified, in the argument that follows I will suggest that conclusions drawn and critical judgments passed have been hasty, and not only failed to take into account the formal aspects of story-telling, but that the narrative features of Palahniuk’s text have largely went unexplored, and constitute a blind spot of the reception. Critics condemning or acclaiming the novel, and, indeed, many a cultic reader of Palahniuk ignored Fight Club as a literary narrative, and have inadvertently been repeating the catchphrases of the text, either reinforcing or trying to undermine what they have understood as their meaning. I see the significance of Palahniuk’s fiction and the literary event of Fight Club’s publication in somewhat different terms. Palahniuk’s emphasis and continued insistence on minimalism suggest that his fiction is properly understood as belonging to a literary tradition whose evaluation remains troubled and, for a large part, unsettled. Nevertheless,...

...peculiar with the influence of modernism and psychologism. However, it was characterized by its attention to details, as well as its attempt to recreate reality as it was, without any decorative language. It tried to reproduce the most detail and objective life of Great Britain before and after World Wars. Realism represented the social life and paid much attention to domestic problems. Its representatives showed tragic vision of life using satire and dark humour, but still their vision of life is much more optimistic than the modernistic one. Talking about their characters, they were social types depicted in their everyday life dealing with their virtues, morals, profession, relationships, worldview etc. Narrative form used by realists is characterized by several narrative characters in order to create an objective vision of life. The most prominent among the writers who continued the traditions of realism were: J. Galsworthy, A. Bennett, H. Wells, B. Shaw; and their followers R. Aldington, G. Orwell, J. Priestley, and E. Waugh. The Novel is certainly the most important literary form of the period. The realistic novel is represented by such novelistic forms as: the social and social-psychological novel (J. Galsworthy, E. Waugh, R. Aldington) the social-domestic novel (A. Bennett, H. Wells) the comic or satirical novel (E. Waugh) family chronicle or epic cycle (J. Galsworthy) science fiction (H. Wells). Despite all this, realism and his representatives suffered...

...T/R 9:00-10:50 Rolfe 3134 Office Hours: W 12:00 - 2:00 pm Mailbox Location: Humanities 149 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ COURSE DESCRIPTION English 4W aims to expose students to the three major forms of literature (poetry, prose fiction, and drama) through the art of close reading, which literary scholars broadly define as the practice of scrutinizing a text carefully in order to discern complex patterns of meaning. It is impossible to spend sufficient time on the works we will be exploring within the bounds of class-time, so you will be required to spend time reading and writing on your own; this is a practice that will enable you to bring your personal experiences with these works to our discussions in class and participate in an engaged way as part of our community of learning. But our community of learning is broader than the classroom—it also includes the community organizations you will be partnering with for your service-learning. We will be investigating and interrogating a versatile metaphor—cultivation—and how it impacts the cultures and communities in which we live. “Cultivation” leaves its trace on culture both linguistically in the morphology of the word and symbolically by informing the figures we use to talk about the establishment, maintenance and the dissolution of a culture -- as when a character in Shakespeare’s play Richard II refers to England as a “sea-walled garden”...
