LITERATURE ANALYSIS #2

FICTION ANALYSIS
This is a book about a man called Equality 7-2521. This man is in a post appocolyptic time where people are living in colonies and each person are not a single individual. they have to address themselves as we because they find individuality a sin. you can be punished for being yourself and for being different. Equality is different. because of this. he is given a job that doesnt require thinking. he is assigned to be a streetsweeper. he actually wants to become a scholor for his community. he is actually really smart compared to others but because being different is bad, he has to be punished. like having to be a street sweeper. and the story goes on like this.

It is very saddening. you feel kind of sad that the world would turn out like this. also it is very cult like. making everyone do what you want all because of a religion.

"there is evil in your bones, Equality 7-2521, for your body has grown beyond the bodies of your brothers." The tone is kind of depressing that he gets treated like that. " all men are good and wise. it is only we, Equality 7-2521, we alone who were born with a curse. for we are not like our brothers." He doesnt quite belong with his community and gets treated differently. "we are one in all and all in one. there are no men but only the great WE, One, indivisable and forever." it has a very cult like feel to it.

CHARACTERIZATION
He describes the protagonist as being six feet tall. this is direct characterization. union 5-3992 as being half brained. this is an example of direct characterization. The golden one is the name of a character. she was given this name by equality. because she has golden hair. this is a form of indirect characterzation.

She doesnt really focus to much on characters. its more of what they do or did then what they say. this book kind of has a poetic feel to it also. because all the characters speak in a manner of we instead of i. so it kind of makes me feel like i am reading shakespeare.

the character is dynamic. the whole story is about his actions. it is kind of like an autobiography. it is a book in the style of a journel. so it describes everything about him.

I came out of this book feeling like i have met someone. It kind of makes me sad to be done with this book. I would have liked for there to have been more to the story.

MASTERPIECE ESSAY #1

To me, there are numerous reasons i want to become a veterinarian. From my love of animals, to me feeling it is the right thing to do.  animals are very precious to me and will always be precious to me. I hope that through my passion, i can make it a reality.

since i was at a young age i have always been close to animals. I moved around a lot so i felt more at ease with animals than with kids my own age. animals were kind of my outlet in tough times. if i ever felt in the dumps, i would just go play with our dog or cat. depending on what animals i had at the time. I personally have had a few animals. each one i cared for a lot. and i think that this was a major factor for me becoming a veterinarian.

When i grew up, i would watch quite a bit of animal planet and it would usually play the shows like animals cops and stuff like that. i would see these animals all mistreated and abused and i would just think how could someone do something like that. to me it didnt make sense. I wanted to do something about it so i decided that i would help those poor animals and become a veterinarian. so that i can help them recover and eventually become like they once were. this was one of the really big reasons why i want to become a veterianarian.

I also grew up admiring doctors and all that. saving lives sounded really cool when i was little. kind of sounded like a hero. So i decided that it would be cool to be a doctor for the animals. so when i told my mom she had told me that an animal doctor is a veterinarian and since that day i had aspired to be a veterinarian. To me, it felt like it was fate for me to become a veterinarian.

 Those are just some of the reason that i want to become a veterinarian. It all started from way back when i was a kid and it never really went away, the dream that is. Being a kid i didnt know that i would eventually be able to pursue this dream. Just because you feel like you will be a kid for ever, and then one day you jsut have to grow up and you will have to pick something you are passionate about and just pursue it.

WELCOME TO THE INTERDISCIPLINARITY


  • I believe that something i will have to discipline will be always studying and researching to learn new medical discoveries in my field of study. medical anything will constantly be changing so i will have to be caught up on all that. 
  •  I will also have to discipline social skills and not letting people get under my skin. so i will probably have to work on holding my tongue.
  • and something i will have to work on will probably be being able to punture a living thing and not feel squimish about it. i cant hook a worm let alone use a needle on a living thing. hopefully i will be able to do that. 
  • I am also gonna have to work on working late nights cause i may have to go back to work if there is an emergency.
  • also working without much sleep. i will have to be alert the whole time, even when i didnt get too much sleep.

LAUNCH

I want nothing more than to become a veterinarian. I have always been passionate about animals and i would like to help them anyways that i can. I also find it interesting to go into that type of medical field. I will be extremely happy if this pursuit becomes reality and i am going to do my best to accomplish that goal.

I can use all the resource finding skill that i have learned over the fall semester of highschool. and all the orginizational skill that i learned. like the blog that everyone has done. we have to be able to organize our thoughts which can help us later on. also bringing technology into our studies has helped us use computers for something other than social media. instead using it as an information highway to help us further our pursuit in our future career.

I believe that if i try to do my best and participate as much as possible then i will not have any regrets about all the work we do in the class this semester. I can probably start by doing all of the work that is assigned to us this semester and just keep it up in general.

I believe just putting out all my thoughts and feelings will be enough to impress people and it willl also help them to understand how i think. It would be really great if people truly liked everything that i wrote and got an understanding of what i feel. and hopefully will help them in their personal lives.

If i can take the steps one at a time and try my hardest i believe i will be able to push past a what if and make it a reality. When this happens i hopefully will have accomplished my goal of being a veterinarian and will go off into my career.

hopefully my peers will be my friends and people that support me. and the public will hopefully be people that support my ideas about my future college goals. and my experts would hopefully be some veterniarians that have already accomplished their dream and will be able to carry on some knowledge so that i can know what to expect.
