Act I Scene I
Christmas decorations fill the house as the gray clouds cover the sky on Christmas morning. The Christmas tree, lit with worn out lights, some broken, flickering, or using its last bit of life, light up the dark and gloomy living room along with the dated fireplace on the wall. Unwrapped Amazon boxes sit under the Christmas tree as last minute orders were made and delivered. The walls of the living room are brown from old age and the carpet is covered with dust. Jenn, the daughter of 14, still in her pajamas, stumbles into the living room, groggy from the interrupted sleep from the thunder and lightning the previous night. She looks at the dimly lit tree and walks up to peruse at the gifts underneath. She picks up the Amazon box that has her name on it. At first, she’s elated to see that it’s from her father, and quickly, has a tear fall from her eye as she misses him dearly. Enters the Mom.
Mom: Is everything ok?
Jenn: Yes Mom, I just miss Dad…. And John. It’s not fair that Dad’s company always makes him travel and he’s never home. We barely get to see him more than three weeks out of the year.
Mom: I know honey (she walks over to Jenn and places her hand on her shoulder). You’ll see him today, once your Dad picks up your brother from College.
Jenn: But he’s going to have to leave again tomorrow, or the following day. Why is work more important than the family?
Mom: You know that’s not the case. He works hard to provide for us. I want to
“Mother,” he starts, “I have something important to tell you.” He pulls up a chair next to her bed and rests his hand on the blanket covering her leg.

The sweet aroma of a freshly baked cake circulates through every room of the small house as the cake sits on the stove top to cool. Colorful balloons are decoratively and strategically placed all over the living room and the kitchen as Kaitlyn prepares for her best friend, Sarah’s, birthday celebration. Strolling through each room, Kaitlyn scans the product of her tireless preparation. Filled with a sense of satisfaction and approval of her work, Kaitlyn sits down on the comfortable black couch listening to the crackle of the fireplace beside her, relaxing for a few minutes before a swarm of guests begin to arrive. However, just as Kaitlyn sinks into the cushions, an anxious knock at the front door interrupts her peace. Making her way to the front door, Kaitlyn
Jane Austen by a rustic fireplace under a snow-filled window, sitting on a rocking chair knitting a sweater.
When the sky was bright and the cold mississippi wind blew, I trudged out of the shack in the snow and went up to the back door, thinking I should go say Merry Christmas or Good Morin’. I got to the door and it opened up very slow like it was some kind of sloth not wanting’ to move. When I got to the Logan’s, Cassie, Christopher John and Little Man ran up to me.
“I do. Now, let me tell you and Percy all about your aunt and grandparents. We have plenty of time until Craid, Lee, and your mother
In this scene, the interpreter is no longer afraid of Kichul and his associates after discovering that they are just a bunch of fools who are incapable of defending themselves properly; in addition, she witnessed that Aryoung is not an inoffensive person but a skillful martial arts practitioner who was able to defeat an entire gang group with ease. Once she knows this, she loses the respect and obedience toward Kichul and his associates and regards herself in equal footing with them. Furthermore, due to the gangster’s inability to understand Aryoung, the interpreter acts more boldly as she will not only alter Aryoung’s speeches but also get things for her own interest. This is more evident in the following scene:
Sam: You never heard of the story where a guy got his hand chopped of by headless horsemen. It was all over the news and newspaper too.
Act 2 Scene 5 For this scene I chose the song “What Goes Around…Comes Around” by Justin Timberlake. I chose the song because it talks about a woman breaking up with a man and the man saying that she’s going to deserve whatever comes at her because she did something bad which means that something bad is going to happen to her. A quotation from the song that proves this is:”What goes around, goes around, goes around Comes all the way back around.” This is basically a song about karma and it talks about how a person always gets what they deserve.
In What Way Does The Final Scene of Act 1 Demonstrate Dramatically The Tensions Between The Characters Which Will Lead to Tragedy? The final scene of Act 1 in Arthur Miller's 'A View From The Bridge' demonstrates dramatic tension in a variety of different ways. It is made fairly clear from the final moments of the act when Alfieri returns to the stage that the play will end in tragedy. Miller shows this through dialogue between the characters and in the plentiful stage directions with which he liberally sprinkles the text. There is a range of conflict present in the scene.
Act I begins with Tiki, a 10-year-old girl, exploring the Queensland farm she lives on with her mother, Jane, in the present day. Tiki investigates some of the mysterious objects her recently passed farther had erected around the farm. While trying to clamber up one of the objects near the farm’s water source, Tiki stumbles and falls. She gets ups and dusts herself off and then notices that the farm’s water source is drying up. Tiki returns to the house, finding her Mum on the porch, sad, as she looks out at their dwindling crops. Jane explains to Tiki that if it does not rain soon, they must leave the farm. Tiki, dismayed about the thought of abandoning her father’s work, sneaks out after dark and uses the box to enter Obbeother, hoping to
Today I was wondering about the story Mrs Brinker read to us yesterday. I started envisioning on how and what my life would be like in their shoes. Imagining waking up in a stick house that could barely keep up but be happy about having a loving family. One thing about Jose is that his living quality of life may not be the best but time he enjoys with his family is better than most. My dad works all the way in Regina and comes every 3 weeks to visit. So I can understand about having you dad work away from you.
