As i a still learning i am/did have trouble with this. This time I am going to connect it into one section(I will try and split them up but they may run together) 1. & 2. I think we really get to see what the mood is when she goes to the room and has her epiphany(which I believe was that she was going to be able to have freedom and not be controlled by anyone and life has a lot of opportunity, even though it would be tough she was looking forward to her new found self and freedom.So she be came new and seemed to be more confident “she carried herself unwittingly like a goddess of Victory” ) as we put it. I say this because the details they give and the setting they scene. Words Like "Comfortable" "roomy armchair" those word give me a sense/mood of comfort and the armchair make me think you someone holding and comforting you and making you feel a little more safe and secure. Some of the details also displace how she if thinking of her new life and opportunity "There was something coming" "waiting" "fearfully" It was "reaching towards her through the sounds" the smell and colors. These word make us get the feelings of opportunity coming for you and you don't know what to expect. Now there is also a freedom aspect that we see. The things that represent freedom are well of course when she talks about being "free" and "live for herself" "self-assertion" "Free!Body and soul free" and it said she kept repeating it like you could not believe how she was now free. I would say
However, when she went to her room alone to compose herself, she felt a bit have happiness as she realized she could be free. She had great hope for her new future where she would not be held back by someone and could do anything she wanted. Before her husband had supposedly died, she did not want to live a long life, but with this new freedom, she wanted to live for a long time to
After she observes the events from outside, an epiphany had come to her and starts to build up. First she tries to avoid the new idea ’this thing was approaching to possess her, and she was striving to beat it back’ because she perhaps felt hopeless in her marriage ‘there would be no one to live for’ explaining that she lived for her husband and not for herself. The climax of the story hits when she repeats whispering ‘free, free, free’ in addition to the change of feelings in her body ‘Her pulses beat fast, and the coursing blood warmed and relaxed every inch of her
Frederick Douglass, an African-American writer that I look up to, once said,"We have to do with the past, only as we can make it useful to the present and the future.” This quote was meaningful to me during my 8th-grade-year. In my early years of school, When I was born, I had my tongue attach to the bottom of my mouth. My parents did not fix the problem until I was three years old. Because they waited so long, I developed a speech impediment that hinders my ability to pronounce certain words. Central York School District made me take a Reading test that determines where I would be placed in English. The tests were against me every time I take the test. I hate being in the remediation course, because of the course I was restricted to have the freedoms that my other classmates had. My 8th-grade-year change how I see English today.
Inside, she feels terrified finally realizing that it's her freedom. Although, she and her husband loved each other very much, and is truly saddened by his death, she feels free for the first time. Instead, she looks forward to the days ahead of her, instead of dreading them.
As life becomes hectic and challenging, being able to manage my time is increasingly difficult. Additionally, being involved in online education adds a layer that requires time, that can be hard to find. Personally, through the use of a planner, eliminating distractions and studying at a coffee shop, has helped me find a way to balance my life.
With the death of her husband came her ultimate freedom. This marks a very important and surprising shift in the tone. The dismal and gloomy tone shifts to this sense of liberation. Louise continuously mutters the words “free, free, free!” and her pulse quickens.
It is still so surreal to reflect back on my first semester as an incoming college student in the ENC1101 course, analyzing at my progression as a reader and writer in literacy. Since the first day of class I set in stone my goals for this class: receive a 4.0 GPA, develop my connecting theories skills in writing, and become more aware of objectives for each Unit throughout the course. All of these goals became achievements that not only make others proud but most importantly give me self pride. In order to earn the grades and achieve these goals, I went after every opportunity that I was given as an incoming college student, such as office hours and extra credit. By taking this course I have gained confidence with the utilization of literacy, and made an addition to my group of impactful literacy sponsors. Once students are finished with high school they assume that there is nothing else to learn beyond the stereotypical five paragraph essay, but they are so wrong. I was able to obtain so much knowledge about numerous course concepts from Writing about Writing, articles, and my professor. These concepts will carry on with me throughout a bright future of writing courses, job interviews, and any other skills that require literacy. The four outcomes listed below will help illuminate how I improved as a writer, by being a driven college student and going out of the way to earn my achievements in this course. In the first outcome I improved comprehending scholar texts,
Before getting to the main epiphany, we will have to talk about the events that led up to that point. Things start looking up for the girl after she was “dead”, as she states, “Now that I was dead, I was freer” (264). After being dead, she indeed does have more freedom.
Although she may be considered insane at the end of the story, I believe the narrator's freedom is a development of the sense of self-identity and a chance for her to begin to recreate a life of her own.
For the first time, she felt free again. She felt love. It was a different kind of love, a love that could keep her
Every person on this earth has a past that shapes them and makes them into a unique individual. I am a 19-year-old student who has a life that may seem to have little flaws from the view of an outsider, but in all honesty been a journey of difficult ups and downs. I have found that many of the readings we are required to do in university will not personally touch us or make us reflect deeply on our own lives. This certainly was not the cas e when I read the personal essay titled Ghosts and Voices: Writing from Obsession by Sarah Cisneros’, because I found that I connected on a deeply personal level to three principal aspects of this piece of writing. First of all, I was also ostracised as a younger child, but in a school setting not at home. In those difficult years when I felt like I had no one, I escaped into the worlds created in books and through trying to write my own stories. Secondly, like Cisneros’, I found myself deeply connecting with some of the books I was reading and in them found the girl that I wanted to become. Lastly, this entire piece was how Cisneros’ discovered her voice as a writer. She found that the best way was to write what you know best, basically using your own experiences to draw your readers/audience in, which is also something I am well versed in not only as a writer but also a performing musician. I truly connected with this piece by Cisneros and was able to find many key parallels between our personal lives that really struck a chord with me.
When I first thought about where I would serve back in the spring, my initial idea was at a soup kitchen. I had worked at one during the Sophomore Retreat Experience, and while I found the three hours we were there exhausting, they were also really fulfilling. However, at the time I was also learning more about myself through the enneagram and was really coming to terms with my particular manifestation of social anxiety. I knew that in a impersonal environment like the one I had experienced at the soup kitchen sophomore year I would not motivate myself to independently form interpersonal relationships. If I went to serve without connecting with people, I would have felt, "that i had no real intention of meeting, even learning about, [the] needs," of those I was serving. I needed an environment that was deliberately structured to create those relationships, like GiGi’s Playhouse. At GiGi’s I feel challenged to live in solidarity with these kids and their parents, and to move past the anxiety that holds me back from connecting with new people.
Gosh, some people have all the luck and some also can make everything look easy, effortless. Some people take all Advance Placement classes, the tough ones, and still manage to be “ All State,” or “All New England's” athletes. How do I know this? One of them sleeps in the room right next to mine. Everytime I walk by my brother, Chase’s, room and I peek in, I am immediately reminded of his achievements and glory. The ribbons are endless, the trophies undusted ( he has had them a long time), and the academic diplomas and plaques shine bright.
Upon further review of my past papers, I found some small grammatical errors that needed to be edited. In my unit one paper, there were a few errors that you had marked. I fixed those oversights then continued on with my revisions. In the second paragraph, I moved a comment to after a citation section in order to back up the information with my own thoughts as I had learned a little further in the semester. Another change I had made was to change a word that was repeated multiple times in a sentence. I also revised unit twos paper. I had received a perfect score on my paper, but upon rereading, I noticed a few things that I felt should be changed. They were not big changes, but I believe the modifications helped the information flow
As a Junior at Downtown Magnets High School I took two AP courses that were AP Spanish Language & AP U.S History along with my regular courses like Mathematics, Science, English, and etc. It was not until I entered my AP U.S. History class that I really learned about All nighters and the use energy drinks and Coffee. I don’t like to Fail but to succeed one must learn what failure feels like to better their understanding of how to Succeed. I “technically” passed the first semester of the Course with a Solid “D” but that did not satisfy me since I knew that I deserved better after all the Time and work I put in to studying two days before each quiz and test. I did not understand that time and effort did not lead to success.
