One word to describe Griffith is.. Eccentric. She is quite abnormal compared to her kin. Griffith is a proud Lythari, an elf that has the ability to take the form of a wolf, one of very few who exist. As a beast she stands at 4', has a length of 5'7”, and weighs in at 160 lbs. The base color of her coat is the same stark white as her hair with silver marbled in. A few identifying physical traits are that she is missing 25% of the top of her left ear, while the right has been accented with an assortment of 22 stone, wood, and bone hoops along the outer lobe/cartilage. While in her elven form she stands at 6'4” and weighs in at 220 lbs. Additionally, she has seen 22 namedays, which makes her one of the younger of her kind. Due to the strength …show more content…
Her hair is thick, yet fine and is a stunning white that flashes and gleams with silver when caught in the moonlight. Alas, that is where the normalcy ends. If one were to describe how they believed she cared for her hair, they would claim she had used rusted and dulled shears to hack and slash at it erratically as she stared into a tumultuous rapid in place of a mirror. They would not be far off. To the left side of her face it is roughly jaw length. The word roughly is used in a very literal sense due to the inconsistency in the length, some pieces barely reached mid-ear while others are far closer to …show more content…
Because of this they are renowned for their desire to maintain a status of nonexistence to the rest of the races, which is why they dwell deep within the forests and mountains, far from the rest of humanity. This is where Griffith's oddity begins to show. Her curiosity and desire to learn about all that she sees is deeply shunned. That's not to say that her people are not wise, but they seek knowledge of the land, animal, and flora of their territories while Griffith thirsts for the knowledge of other races. That being said, it does not seem as thought she was cast out from her pack, she seems to suggest that she left of her own free will. Beyond that she doesn't elaborate on her travels as she often becomes distracted or bored, but it is clear she has seen much in her young

Fenton chose green paper for his bingo marker art and when finished he said"All done ."
Dillard's purpose in this narrative is to encourage adults to be more tolerant of children who get into trouble. Dillard wants adults to look back and remember all the fun they had as kids and to remember how much trouble they got into also. Dillard uses the man who chased her as an example. The man chased them, for what seemed forever, but he didn't get mad at them or lecture them, he just caught them and said "You stupid kids" and let them go.
Assuming the office of chief Superintendent of Education in Upper Canada, Egerton immediately swung into action as he continued to make countless creative, as well as, extensive changes targeted to remodelling the Upper Canada school system whose general control of the school was within his jurisdiction- the Chief Superintendent. Egerton had the prerogative to “set standards for the curriculum; supervised the training, inspection and examination of teachers; and oversaw the selection and distribution of textbooks, through a central depository and press plant which encouraged the publication of works by home-grown authors. Libraries were organized in every school”. (Claude W.D, 2002, para 7)
Erik Larson uses repetition to tell his readers how much it would take for Olmsted to complete his task on time and how stressful it was. Larson uses the would “if” to communicate to his readers that there is a chance that everything could work out but “if” one of these does not, then they fail. By repeating “if” repeatedly Larson’s readers understand that there are many different things that, in order for the fair to be complete on time, need to go right. So by using this repetition Larson communicates to his readers how stressed they were about the fair. Therefore, this repetition that Erik Larson uses allows his readers to understand how stressed they all were about all the factors that needed to go right in order for the fair to be completed

This section employs narrative analysis to the story A League of Their Own in order to highlight the moral of the film that women have a choice over their future and do not have to be stay-at-home mothers. Once again, “a story needs a plot with a beginning, middle, and end” (Sellnow, 2014, p. 60). Dottie and Kit’s story begins in the small farm town where they work at the dairy and play ball for fun. During a game, a recruiter takes notice of Dottie, then from there, Dottie and Kit’s baseball career takes off. Their upward progression proves that anything is possible. Tensions run high between sisters Dottie and Kit. Kit hates how good Dottie is at baseball and does not believe that Dottie wants to even be on the team. All the while, Dottie does not understand Kit’s frustration. Dottie tells Mr. Lowenstein she is leaving if she is not put on another team. Instead, Kit gets put on another team.
Being born in Jackson, TN life was different for me than those that grew up in the integrated societies in California or the yanks up north. My momma was always having me help around the house and cook, clean, and tend after my five younger siblings. My daddy ran a small farm that provided for our family. It wasn’t a lavish life by any means but we got by and had each other. Our family mainly grew corn on our farm but we had a couple of cows and chickens to keep the family fed throughout the year. Being the oldest child and a girl I mostly focused on helping momma around the house when I was at home, but my parents instilled a great faith in all of us children
Casablanca, to me, is a very unique artifact to study. I think that studying this artifact, is very creative and engaging. One thing that sticks out to me relating Casablanca, is the lighting, as mentioned in a group’s project. When watching film, I tend to overlook the lighting, but when seeing the project, it made me think differently. Every movie filmed has a purpose for every scene, there are no accidents. One scene that stuck out to me was the scene with Ilsa and Rick. In the scene Ilsa looks as if she is glowing , she lights up her area of the room, and lights up the front of Rick, while behind him is dark. In my opinion this scene is symbolizing how Rick is in a dark place, hence the dark lighting behind him. When Ilsa walks into the room, it's like a new Rick appears, which is more brighter. I think it is safe to say that this is no accident at all as far as coming from the producers. In my opinion I think this scene would not be as effective if the lighting was not like this, the message may be completely different. This scene makes me think of a part of my favorite tv show Pretty Little Liars. In Pretty Little Liars, the main antagonist of the show “-A” is revealed. When -A is revealed, the lighting becomes very dark, and there is a sense of darkness, or horror. This lightning fits the scene very well. When this character, who is terrible to the other characters anonymously, is finally revealed, it would not be beneficial to have bright lighting, or a sense of light. Just like the scene from Casablanca, both of these scenes would affect the viewer differently and make them think of these scenes as something different.
1. I wrote arguments in my persuasive and literary analysis to fulfill standard one. I used my research as evidence and combined that with my prior knowledge to make educated arguments to support my claims. I spent time going through information and analyzing the information to find sufficient evidence.
I failed AP English. I had missed the second quarter of the school year, almost completely, due to… technical difficulties. I got discharged from the hospital mid-February, and for the remainder of junior year, the majority of my waking thoughts revolved around passing 11th grade. With motivational speeches coming at me from my parents, friends, and teachers, I began to believe I had a chance of passing the year. I did my best, which apparently was not enough. My teacher had picked up on my tremendous amount of effort, and on the last day of school, bumped my grade up to a low D — just enough to pass. I was not exactly about to put my grade on display or anything, but I passed! Technically. This is not one of the underdog-who-succeeded stories. The real success for me was (look away, it’s cliché) realizing my best was enough. I sound disgusting.
