Missy was a toy Pomeranian, and was given to us when she was about six. When we got her, she was very overweight. Our grandparents had been feeding her full plates of their dinner. We got her into shape, mainly by feeding her actual dog food. She slept through most of the day, and didn’t do much. When she got exited, she started snorting, like a pig. She was afraid of flies, and would hide under the bed when they got into the house. She passed away sometime in November of 2013, due to congestive heart

    Summary Of Christina Garcia's Monkey Hunting

    Latin America is distinguished by its incredible supply of natural resources as well as an immensely rich and extensive geography, and as a result of rapid economic growth around the world, the continent was invaluable to investors in the nineteenth century. However, production of goods required immense labour, so as would be expected of the time, slaves were put to work. Working alongside slaves, as had happened similarly in other regions of the Americas, South America also employed thousands of Asian indentured workers, whose status was on par with that of the African slaves. Latin American novelist Christina García’s deals with this period of history in her 2003 novel Monkey Hunting, which exposes the Chinese immigration experience and their…

    Reflection On Llama And The Bully Goat

    During family literacy night I was able to practice my DLTA lesson and my storytelling lesson. A variety of students asked to hear a story first and others asked to be read to. The book I read was Llama Llama and the Bully Goat, and the story I told was The Gingerbread Man with a different ending from the traditional story. Family Literacy Night was a great opportunity to practice my storytelling skills, and practice what questions allow them to think deeper. Although I enjoyed it there were moments that I thought about changing some questions and even changing my book.…

On September 26th 2015, I interviewed Shari Olges, my mother, in her living room. We conducted the interview on two separate couches, which was clever of her due to the small size of these couches, in which I sat on the couch closest to a window bursting with light. Mrs. Olges sat on a couch that was slightly longer and enveloped some space used to enter her vast kitchen.…

    Animal Abuse In Mary Jo Frazier's Case

    When I started researching this topic, I believed that I would only be able to find a few old topics on animal abuse, but as I researched and researched, the stories continuously got grimmer. One particular story that wasn’t as grim but still got to me was one of a former Boulder City Animal Control supervisor named Mary Jo Frazier. So I tried my best to get as many images that weren’t to gruesome and use it on our groups collage in order to reflect Mary Jo Frazier’s case. So what was Mary Jo Frazier, the supervisor of an animal shelter accused of exactly?…

    Elizabeth Costello And Animal Cruelty

    The main point of Mrs. Costello’s argument is that humans deny that animals have a concept of life and death, thus, humans are needlessly cruel to animals and show no sign of ending the cruelty due to the fact that crimes toward animals remain unpunished. Poets, like herself, are able to have “‘ a feel for’ an animal’s experience. That leads them to recognize the crime of killing any animal that can experience the sensation of being alive to the world” (Introduction, 5). After the speech at the university, Elizabeth Costello argues with colleagues that “unlike some animals, human beings do not need to eat meat” (Introduction, 4).…

    Personal Narrative: Smokey Bean

    I remember my first love like it was yesterday, which is not a surprise considering the fact that she was such a big part of my life. Just about every Sunday, I went to my grandmother's house for family dinners, and there I was consistently given the opportunity to see my best friend, Smokey Bean. Bean was a large (but skinny), beautiful female labrador with black fur. If I was lucky, I would be able to get to see her more than once a week, for instance, during school vacations when I could sleepover at my grandma’s house. Overall, seeing Bean became a part of the routine.…

    The Jumping Frog Of Calaveras County Essay

    The Jumping Frog of Calaveras County by Mark Twain has definitely been one of my favorite short stories that I’ve read. The story was well put-together, let alone the humor that was added provided a great role in the plot. The play on the other hand really sealed the deal for me. I loved how the actors developed the story to an attention-keeping performance that had me giggling inside. Although the play and the story were very similar, there are some very distinct differences.…

    David Bacon's Illegal People

    David Bacon has three primary arguments in his book, Illegal People. The first point is that illegal immigrants’ are exploited on their vulnerability from lack of legal status. Particularly when they try to form unions, both employers and government use the threat of deportation to discourage organized labor. The second argument suggests that the economy and previous policies have created illegal immigration and made countries dependent on this workforce. The third argument ties illegal immigration in with globalization.…

    Summary Of Michael Pollan's 'An Animal Place'

    An Animal's Place All beings are aware of animal slaughter for food purposes. One may either look away with guilt and still consume meat knowing in fact the process within animal slaughter, or on the crontary, not consume meat at all. Michael Pollan makes several points throughout his journal from “ The New York Times Magazine”, in which he advocates the idea of equality, factory farming, and humane farming. Within his several points, he arrives to a conclusion in which he proclaims that animals’ rights may still be honored during the preparation of the slaughtering of an animal. Equality is one point Pollan shares with his readers, stating that there is not much equality among animals themselves.…
