Analysis Of ' Noah ' And ' Pay Attention '

I’m sure many have shared stories of their high school experiences and can relate when I say those four years have taught me many lessons. During this time, I’d come face to face with the fraudulent friendships, temporary romances, and other high school dramas that my parents once warned me about—those of which I simply brushed off as myths. It wasn’t the 90’s anymore— times have changed and people are different—or at least, that’s what I thought.

Scott was super judgemental to people he didn’t even know, or talk to. He didn’t want to be friends with Wesley because he took people's lunch money. Scott considered him to be a “bully”. Scott stood up to Wesley about bullying. He saw that after he stopped taking people’s money he wasn’t a bad person. Scott didn’t like Mouth because he talked way too much. He judged Lee on the way she looks, and the things she wears. Then he realized she is a really nice person once you get to know her. “I tried not to let her catch me staring. But I couldn’t help myself. I mean, safety pins? There were some kids in school who looked kind of like that, but nobody anywhere near as extreme” (Lubar 93). At the end of the book Scott realizes all of these people are great people once you get to know them. Scott changed the most in Sleeping Freshman Never Lie because he let go of

She is one of the most polite, friendly, and pretty girls in the sorority. She is a static, flat, and a direct character.

Over these past few weeks, I have been reading the book, Unfriended by Rachel Vail. In the novel, the main character Truly gets put into a situation just like every other 8th grade teenage girl may deal with. She gets invited to the popular table. She was already friends with one of the girls, Natasha. However, once Natasha dumped Truly, the only one that was there for her was Hazel. Hazel gets a little odd when it comes to popularity, so when Natasha asked Truly to sit with them, Hazel got very defensive. Truly had to make a decision between the populars and the “losers” who turn out to be her ex-best friends. However, does Truly know what it takes to be one of the populars? Are they really trying to be her friend, or is Natasha just messing with Truly to humiliate her? Truly starts to find out the real story on why she was invited with the populars, and she quickly realizes she doesn’t need to pretend to be someone she is not.

She said she can be a bit sassy sometimes and at other times a bit awkward, but everyone at Palo Verde High School knows her to be the smartest thing in the classroom.

Speaking of school, a new transfer student popped out of nowhere and came to the school. Her name is Rachel. She is in a lot of the same classes as me, so naturally we have to be acquainted. Since she is in many classes as me, she assumes that we are friends. I, on the other hand, do not believe so and I see her as a nuisance. She is always with me and I see many of her thoughts. “I wonder what Kyle’s doing. Why is he always on his tablet? I never see him with any

Nodding in reply we start walking out of the house, quickly picking up Crookshanks. "We're taking my truck. Mom and Dad left, Matt took Yogi, and I'm left with you, Kyle, and Alex."

Hannah Hardiman is a friend of many. She stays involved with her community and enjoys the the company of others. She is a talented soccer player and was a captain of Fairfax girls junior varsity team last year. She is always very bubbly and tries to look on the positive side of life. Her comfortable style shows that she is pretty relaxed and approachable. She doesn’t like talking about herself which shows that she’s a humble person who cares more about others than herself. She’s hilarious when she’s not trying and her joyous laughter

Another important key factor about Scott is his ability to be open to change. He develops this trait throughout the novel, not right away. The major example I found in the book that represents this, is his relationship with Wesley Cobble during the school year. At first, Scott fears Wesley, because he asks to “borrow” his lunch money, and looks very tough from the outside. “I’m not a complete wimp, and it’s not like I’ll never stand up for myself, but Wesley is flat out scary.” (Page 96.) As the story goes on, Scott continues to encounter Wesley who regularly approaches him for “donations.” But at one point, Scott and Wesley have a friendly chat in the office and Wesley ends up sitting next to Scott at lunch. Their “friendship” grows when Scott is told to “Hop in” Wesley’s Mustang. Wesley ends up taking Scott to school every day, and they become good friends. Wesley helped open Scott to accept that change is good, and it becomes an important value to him. Scott makes new friends, and realizes that he won’t always have the same friends from middle school.

In the movie, they’ve asked her and her friends a few questions and there were a lot of things that I have observed personally. Through careful observation, I noticed only a few things. One of the things that I have noticed is that she seemed to be very quiet when among her friends which can be assumed that she could be very shy when it comes to speaking in public. When it comes to boys liking her, she has a hard time keeping track of all the boys liking her.

Also i think she would not survive in a normal highschool because everybody would be making fun of her no matter what she does because that is how high school goes and especially the way she acts and all the names and how she was on the air radio and how she dresses and how she has a rat that walks with her in the hall way and how she is just not like any other person

Surviving high school is no easy task. From the very first day of class, students are forced to find comradery in various social circles. These cliques can range from sports jocks, to math and band geeks, to school club members, and to the social outcasts who could care less about school. While there are more various types of groups, the most common are the jocks and the nerds. As far as everybody in the school in concerned, the popular athletes and the “wimpy” nerds are from two very different planets. However, while there are a lot of differences between the two as far as physical appearance goes, I had the honor of being part of both worlds, and I know for a fact that they have more in common than either would care to admit.

Serena smiles for a picture. She walks to the end of the hallway. JESSICA is next on line.

For my essay I will be analyzing the similarities  and differences between the interpretations of  Noah the film: Noah (Paramount Pictures and Regency Enterprises, 2014) and the bible story. Writer-director Darren Aronofsky, was brought up with a Jewish education and a deep fascination in the story of Noah 's ark it took him over 15 years to get the film afloat. But with all biblical movies there is always some type of controversy and unfortunately it even comes from people who have never even seen the movie. The intended audience of the film is unclear, which I find a little weird because I expected the audience to Christians and people of the Jewish faith who know the story of Noah.

There are two groups of people here at Hoofer Middle School. The populars and the unpopulars. Stephanie Blake was the queen of the populars. She had everything. Her 16-year old brother, Alec, is the captain of the high school soccer team, her dad is the CEO of ESPN, her mother is an award winning actress, and her 18 year old sister is married to Liam Sharden, the best actor ever! She is five foot six, smooth blonde hair with natural hazel-brown highlights and sea-blue eyes. Her family is the ultimate millionaire! Even Bruno Mars doesn’t have that much money! Ok...maybe he has way more than
