    character describes, “we sat there for an hour, maybe two, I don’t know, because it was then that time measured in the ordinary way stopped” (pg.6). Fink begins to use the scenery around the characters as an extension of this non-numerical sense of time as is seen in Behind The Hedge. Recalling a past memory the character does not recall the date or the exact time. She recalls the changing color of her room and the position of the flowers in her garden. For before the main character finds out that the little girl whom she found in her garden has recently been killed she describes the color of the room she is sitting in as “the color of heavy red wine” (pg. 16). Upon hearing the news however the heavy red wine colored walls darken into a deeper shade of red- “of blood” (pg. 20). As she painfully grabs her cane she goes out to her garden. For “it was right here” on that day “among the flowers that were once laid out in formal beds but now grow in a tangled mass that” she “saw that girl” (pg. 21). However, now when the character goes back to this specific spot in her garden “the flowers” now “grow straight, untouched”, there is this sense of progression of time passing. For the flowers are no longer tangled, they are straight and untouched as the girl who once was the cause of their entanglement is now dead. Fink as her book progresses begins to delve further into the role that time plays in these people’s lives. Not only does this time reflect the character, but it is also in…

    fantastic public speaker. I was acclaimed for my acting abilities around the school. I thought for once, we’d get over our differences, but things still remained the same. When Joe graduated, he decided to follow in his father’s footsteps and joined the Navy. Unfortunately, due to a medical mix up, he was dishonorably discharged from basic training. This was the beginning of Joe’s even deeper descent into depression. Like history repeating itself, my brother began taking out all of his issues…

    Rory to stay at his place with him. This is the type of behavior that we see in stage two. Both Logan and Rory are receiving something out of the exchange and thus it is fine for them to have an affair. Kohlberg states that in these stages, higher levels of reasoning also contain the understanding of the lower reasoning stages. This “hierarchical integration” is due to the fact that these stages always move forward (Kohlberg & Hersh, 1977). Regression is only possible in cases of extreme…

    I have made an abundant amount of change since I’ve reached level two. I have had to make many changes to my behavior before being able to reach this level. One of my main problems was lying which I have had trouble with before I came to Eckerd and stealing as well which I’ve worked on also. When I leveled up I was faced with problems within the group and problems I faced before I leveled up like arguing with my staff and peers. Since leveling up I learned to deal with these situations and…

    Dickinson uses two forms of figurative language; personification and irony. She ironically portrays Death as a gentleman by giving him human characteristics and allowing him to “stop” his carriage for both her and Immortality. In addition, in her poem “Much Madness is Divinest Sense,” she writes “Much Madness is divinest Sense- / Much Sense-the starkest Madness-” (Lines 1&3) Dickinson uses a paradox in this passage describing madness as making good sense. She does this because sanity is…

    could overcome and be successful. When I read this story, I was sucked into the scene, and truly felt like I was among the men. It struck a chord with me personally, because I’ve seen far too many friends believe they could not win and accept defeat. I think if only someone could have stepped up and given a speech as epic as Henry V maybe they too could have been victorious. Even looking past my feelings about the emotional impact the story had on me, I still loved the way I was immersed into…

    We are talking about the days when Myspace was the cool social network site. I had been out with a bunch of friends walking around the town, as I often did, and came home to what I thought was a random friend request on Myspace accompanied by a message. I did not know who it was at first until I dug a little deeper, saw a couple of photos and mutual friends. Then it struck me – it was Jimi D! In the message he wrote about how he had noticed me walking around town. At this time, he was already…
