Blossoms: A Short Story

Edwin’s overall need or desire throughout his life is to be certain Pinky is happy and safe at all times.

I run. ”(pg:12 192 - 200). This connects to the claim, because Squeaky is being herself because she is a runner and doesn’t dance and is not a strawberry. Later in the story, it says “. . .

In “Raymond’s Run”, it is clear to see that Squeaky walks through life with heavy weights and worries on her shoulders. Not only does she have to take care of Raymond, but she also has to deal with her mother, who does not accept Squeaky for who she is. Squeaky’s mother brings her down by not supporting her and expecting her to be a typical girly girl. When her mother brings her down, Squeaky develops insecurities about herself. She may not realize it, but the sassy and rude way she treats others is just an act to cover up her insecurities. When she acts like she is better than everyone else, she is just trying to hide the fact that she has so many obstacles that she needs to overcome. Just like Squeaky in “Raymond’s Run”, “She Used to Be Mine”, uncovers the act that Sara Bareilles puts on, and reveals her true self. Both Squeaky and Sara Bareilles have different dimensions and layers to themselves. Squeaky is also similar to a flower bud that blooms into something beautiful. By the end of the story, Squeaky learns to respect Gretchen, and by doing that she is gaining a new perspective on life. When a flower bud opens up, it grows layers of petals. Each petal on the flower is like each of Squeaky’s different personalities. Squeaky is still figuring out her life, and she is constantly learning from her mistakes and growing from them. While the flower grows new petals, the bud in in the center remains the same, like the heart of the flower. This goes to show that even when Squeaky is changing, she still has the same, loving heart. A heart that loves her family. A heart that loves Raymond. A heart that loves

As Squeaky got older she had found another puzzle piece, it was the moment of when she was given the job of protecting her brother that caused her to become caring/protective and

By mid-morning the next day, Tizbeth stood on the edge of the very unimpressive field. The grass was green. The well was there. Had she been walking with Ovalles she wouldn’t have given

When she is shown to his room, she starts flipping out saying, “He grinned when he saw me and suddenly it occurred to me, Frankie, the Voice, the Crooner, was grinning at me!” (Simon). However, in the next sentence, all of that excitement starts to fade away. She says, “I stood rooted to the spot, expecting to faint dead away like the shrieking, swooning girls outside…I waited to feel light-headed, for my knees to grow weak, but nothing happened.” (Simon). This is important, because it shows that no matter how much she wants to be like all of the other girls; she will never be like

Judy Hops, the main character, is a young and determined bunny that sets out to become Zootopia’s first bunny cop. Her parents try to talk her out of it and instead want her to follow the family business of being a carrot farmer. No one believes that Judy can become a cop due to her being a bunny. However, Judy believes that “Anyone can be anything”.

Kat loved her sassy rose and her forgetful goldfish named Fred. She’d always had a brown thumb, but when the plants reminded her to feed them, she was able to keep them alive. Plus, even if she forgot, she could just give them a little TLC and they’d be back to good health in no time. Just as she was feeding Fred, there was a knock at the door. Kat finished feeding Fred and walked to the door. She opened it to see Seb holding a gorgeous blue rose.

Lilia does not need the candy anymore because he is back home safe with his family. This proves that if two people try and care for each other they can do anything and build a strong relationship. This shows that even if people are not from the same race or cultural background that they can still get along and build a strong

She then told her that she had visitors, and her aunt and uncle came through the door. They interrupted her thoughts, because their faces were red, most likely from crying. They brought her flowers, and set them next to her bed. None of them knew what was going to happen next.

Beau woke up to the beautiful singing of the house sparrows, and soon notice that none of the other squirrels were playing. He then went downstairs to ask his mother. His mother had told him to, NOT GO OUTSIDE! That hunters were out there. Beau had never listened to his parents, and he went outside anyway.

Fluffy acts different than the other flowers in the garden. When she was four years old Doctor Frank told Mr. and Mrs. Flower that their daughter had autism. That's why she acts differently.

In the film, Hopps endures extensive, superfluous obstacles to prove herself worthy and capable of working as a police officer in the big city. She is surrounded by characters and circumstances that subtly (and not so subtly) underscore antiquated traditions and ideologies on women participating in the workforce, and employ belittling nicknames and phrases that stereotype and ridicule females. When Hopps enters Zootopia for the first time as an officer, she is frequently told by her male colleagues to “go back to the carrot farm,” a gleaming reference to the antiquated, but still existing notion of “go back to the kitchen(39:25).” In addition, Judy is also asked by her male counterpart, “So, are all bunnies bad drivers?”, directly alluding to the stereotype that all females are incapable of properly operating a car (13:16). Further illuminating the direct connection between “bunny” references and female stereotypes, a male in the film comments, “Oh you bunnies. You’re so emotional (27:04).” These not-so-subtle allusions sprinkled throughout the

A bird’s call shook me awake. A rustling behind the bushes peaked my curiosity. “Hello? Little bunnies? It’s ok. I won’t hurt you.” I look closer at the bushes and realise that there are no bunnies in The Garden...But there were thieves.
