Loloe Devo Character Analysis

“Everyone needs a stretch class,” Mr. Brett Bowers, Homestead High School principal exclaimed. When mid-January comes around at Homestead, Mr. Bowers says this to every student as they are preparing to register for class for the following year. I took my high school principal's advice to heart when I started my college search; Northwestern is my school, a school that will challenge me to be not only the best student possible but also the best person. The Medill School of Journalism has been one of my dreams ever since I started my journalism adventure three years ago, and my desire to be a student at Medill has only grown since I started my quest to find my place in the high education world. One particular aspect of Medill that peaks my interest

Lennie Small is a character that readers are drawn to right from the beginning of the book. His innocence stands out from the grimey coverings of loneliness and hopelessness that the other characters wear. The reason Lennie is so innocent is because he has a mental handicap, one that prevents him from understanding complex human emotions such as guilt, or concepts such as death. In addition Lennie has trouble remembering things, “" I tried and tried [to remember]...but it didn't do not good." Consequently, Lennie has trouble fitting in with society. Ultimately his mental disability is what leads to Lennie's demise at the end of the book. Another trait that is an essential part of Lennie's innocent character is his devotion to his closest friend George. In fact, the only times Lennie is shown to be angry is when George is insulted or threatened. When Crooks, the crippled, black, stable hand, implies bad things about George, this devotion is clearly shown. “Suddenly Lennie's eyes centered and grew quiet, and mad. He walked dangerously toward Crooks. 'Who hurt George?' he demanded" When it comes to George, Lennie would deviate from the normal passive motives of his persona. More support can be found when George is the only one who can convince Lennie to “get him[Curly]” when Curly attacks him, as well as being the only one to stop him. Perhaps the most prominent support for Lennie's childlike innocence is in his utter belief of George and his dream. No matter how

My favorite part of the book is when JD found out that he did not have AIDs because it was the most interesting thing in the book and it had me on the edge of my seat. My favorite character is JD because he is very persistent with everything he does , he is honest ,and he was one of the smartest characters in the book.The book was about a guy name JD dawson who is from the ghetto part of oakland, California who try to make a better life for himself by going to college.

In today’s society the world is extensively connected, linked together through the vast expanse of the internet. This incredible feat allows for the ability to discover, exchange, and relay information in an instant, with millions of people around the planet and yet this can come at a price. In Will Ferguson’s novel 419, the crime that is internet scamming unfolds before the characters as a man’s life is taken and the dangers of 419 come to life. The desperate lies from Nigerian criminals and selfish exploitations represented in the novel, however, are responsible for much of the human development throughout. The crime against the innocent that exists here is providing a reason for people to unite and become stronger.

Throughout the novel, Kingsolver was able to make all her characters appealing to the reader. Lou Ann is full of southern charm and her overbearing parenting is comical. Kingsolver describes Turtle in such a way that makes her lovable without her saying any words. Her mannerisms are described with impeccable imagery. Taylor, the protagonist, seems to be the girl next door that is everyone's friend. She also provides comedic relief in the tense times.

The literature character that I have selected to analyze is George from “The Veldt”. I will be making an in-depth look at both physical and psychological traits that George might posses. I picked George, since in the story he went through some major changes that seemed interesting to analyze. Also, I like how George is willing to go through those changes in his family. However, I dislike how George is easily convinced into doing things that he knows he should not do. I identify with this trait that George has because I dislike saying no to a person; thus, I am easily convinced to do things I know is wrong. George reminds me of my older sister, because they share many traits and habits. An example, both of them are obsessed with getting the newest technology, and they always have to have some sort of technology with them at all times.

To whom it may concern, Georgia Beckmann is one of the most intelligent, thoughtful and witty students I have seen in my counselling career. These qualities are impossible to miss through how she approaches her assignments, the quality of her insight into topics at hand, discussions in class and extracurricular activities. Georgia’s hard work has consistently earned her some of the highest grades of her class since freshman year, and she has continuously challenged herself each year to improve the quality of her work and analyses across academic disciplines. Georgia has earned straight A’s throughout her entire high school career, which is no surprise based on the hard-working spirit she exudes every day in all of her classes. This has carried

Mr. Davit Shanto and I have worked closely together for the past year and a half. During that timespan, Davit has been a self-starter and an industrious contributor to the team endeavors. In addition to having an extraordinary degree of integrity and that type of person that brings out the best in those around him; he is one of those unique character who can both follow directions and take the leadership role, as appropriate. He is one of those individuals where I depended on him if I asked him or put him on projects, that either the task or project will be done by a certain deadline. He is strong in time management and his competence extends above and beyond the skills for which he was initially hired.

My friend Chloe Pelot is a hard worker and dedicated to what she loves. Everyday she goes to the barn and takes care of horses, she never complains and enjoys what she does. Chloe is a great example of when you find something you love to do it does not feel like a job. She found something she loves to do and made it her job, that is not something most people can do. It is amazing and I strive to do that one day as well.

I think Longoria’s character shows a lot of discipline for doing what is enforced to do. We see how violence has affected his life and other people’s perspective of him. He started out in the Army at a very young age and carried out the harsh tasks that he was given, no matter how cruel they were. Longoria is a strong-minded person. For him to carry out some of the assignments he was given, it takes a different kind of person. For example, the incident with the people in the village. He murdered a whole village of innocent people. To me, this shows that Longoria is ruthless. In a sense, I would almost say that he has lost his mind. After years of killing like he did, how does he not have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder? Most people that must go through and witness the things like Longoria are scarred for the rest of their life. For example, my grandfather was in the military during Vietnam. He would wake up screaming in the middle of the night, fireworks and loud noises bothered him, among other little things that would trigger his PTSD. Violence eventually takes its toll and I think it got the best of Longoria.
