Bad Day Comparison

Starting off with how both songs begin, they both have an alarm sound which symbolizes awareness to the listener. They both have a similar meaning and both revolve around inequality and the injustices that goes on within the the country and the world. The people we have trust and faith in to run our American country are the ones who fail us the most. We are told and promised that there is equality within the nation but in reality there is no such thing. For example, both rappers talk about racism and how because of it there is racial profiling, stereotypes and most importantly discrimination. That is all because they are not part of the superior race which in this case would be considered the white people or in other terms Caucasians. We’re given false hope because the politicians and police have our trust and faith but fail us as a society due to the corruption that goes on within the world. People believe that racism and discrimination issues are getting better when in fact it’s the other way around. These problems are counting to grow no only is it focusing on one race but instead its targeted towards everyone who isn’t white. The violence as well is becoming a problem of its own. People are being accused of crimes they didn’t do because of their skin color or religion. The justice system that we depend so much on fails to

After viewing both Sixteen Candles and Ferris Bueller’s Day Off I would have to choose Sixteen Candles to be my favorite of the two. My reasoning is because I feel the storyline and characters were developed better, allowing the audience to feel a greater connection with the film. When comparing the two films, Sixteen Candles comes across as more angst driven, with a strong female lead. Ferris Bueller’s Day Off has an obvious strong male lead character, with more humor obvious throughout the film. The overall tone of Sixteen Candles is less upbeat than Ferris Bueller. As the main character Samantha is struggling throughout the film with the acceptance of her family forgetting her birthday, Ferris Bueller has no care in the world and refuses to be defeated. The relationships in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off are mainly friend to friend and student to authority. Sixteen Candles depicts a more romantic aspect, with a love story being the main focus throughout.

Some similarities in the book are, Mason had to sell his horse and also tex’s horse because they needed the money for groceries.

Tex had to go to the hospital because he got shot when he went to Lem’s friends house. Lem’s friend shot Tex in the hand because Tex was trying to leave. One more similarity was that Mason and Tex were on t.v. They were on t.v because they picked up a hitchhiker, and the hitchhiker had a gun and was trying to shoot mason.

This article discusses the scandal Justin Bieber was involved in with Mariah Yeater back in 2011. She had been said to be the main focus of the song due to her accusations of being impregnated by music artist, Justin Bieber. The theme of this song also highly resembles Michael Jackson’s “Billie Jean,” not just by the way it sounds, but from the outlook of the situation. Each song incorporates a problem with a girl who is in search of their attention. Some think it’s for the money or fame but Justin later states in the song how she might not even be after any of that. Maybe all this time she just wanted him to like her.

Problem solving is an immense part of our daily lives. It shows the creativity in all of us, and can help get anyone out of a sticky situation. In the short story, “The Difficult Path,” written by Grace Lin, and in the short film “Partly Cloudy,” created by Michael Bidinger and Michelle Kwon, unexpected solutions play a huge role in the character’s development and how they get past tough sections in their lives. In “Partly Cloudy,” Peck, a stork, is forced to deliver all the “dangerous” babies. Carrying alligators, sharks, and porcupines, he struggles to complete these journeys, not wanting to let Gus down.

Halloween is praised on October 31 in a few nations. It has its roots in agnostic festivals for the end of the harvest season, different celebrations of the dead.

It is on November 1.The Latin American festival Día de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, is praised amid the same time period as Halloween. Both occasions are focused on conventions established in recognizing the perished.

Bravery is not inherent, it is rather acquired from the circumstances or situation faced in the life. People face lot of problems in their lives and to cope with those situations and move in with one's life is the sheer example of being brave.  The same has been depicted by both the authors in their respective books. First by Kaye Gibbons in her very famous book "Ellen Foster" where in the protagonist is shown as homeless girl with no one to take care of, yet she finds a way to live her life and find herself a house worth living. Second, by Mark twain in his

Sometimes you have to fight your own battles, and it's not easy.

After reading the stories “Waiting For Dan” and “A Letter Home” I realized that there is some similarities and differences between the protesters in each story. One way they are similar is because in both stories they both have a problem that they don’t agree with nor like so they revolt against this problem and start to protest. Another thing they have in similar is that in each story the people wanted to get something out of these problems. For example in the story “A Letter Home” Kara the girl who wrote the letter to her Mother and Dad wanted to know what was going on before she left. I know this because in the first paragraph Kara stated, “ but we are staying together so we can try to understand what happen before we leave campus and go

The protagonists of both “The Story of an Hour” by Kate Chopin and “Everything that Rises Must Converge” by Flannery O’Connor, perceive independence and freedom as happiness; unfortunately, neither protagonist is able to achieve this happiness, due to the ties that bind them to the people he or she loves most. Ultimately, these relationships hold them back from joy and fulfillment. In “The Story of an Hour,” Louise finds that she is confined by her husband. In “Everything that Rises Must Converge,” Julian is unable to separate from his mother, and so he is unable to achieve either freedom or happiness.

In today’s society the majority of the crimes are still being committed by people who have possessed a firearm that has been obtained illegally or without proper permits. That being said there has been a strong push for gun control because of the rise of shootings involving a large group of people such as the Columbine massacre, Virginia Tech shooting and latest Aurora movie theater shooting involving people who have purchased firearms legally. Gun control laws in the United States have been established for many years but to maintain a civilized society with limited crime stronger control laws need to be enforced in which will help reduce crime in our country. Establishing stronger gun control laws will educate

Throughout your life your going to experience breakups that make you feel like you have some weight off your shoulders and you’ll feel very relieved, but then you’ll have breakups that you regret and wish you didn’t break up with that person. Ed Sheeran obviously had a breakup that he regretted afterwards and was heartbroken about. Which he made a song about called “Happier” which you’d think by the title it’d be a more uplifting song, but its not its about a breakup.
