    Rainy Days and Mondee “It’s raining again!? When will it stop?!” I imagine my dog saying this line every time it’s raining. You see, Mondee hates rainy days! He would sit by the windowsill, look at the rain, grumble and sigh loudly. Poor Mondee! Well, staying indoors three days straight can do that to you. You see, Mondee is an outdoor type of dog. The moment he wakes up, he would go outside to do his business and play! Chasing cats is the favorite exercise of Mondee. (Thank goodness the cat…

    something new can be tricky. It can be seeing something new that you wanted to try but your first look at it causes confusion. That's why having someone to help show you is very beneficial. For EXAMPLE, at my job IHOP I trained others on how to use the register. IHOP has difficult register codes that they call "key-ins". But as a result of proper training, it's easy to become accustomed to using them. Every time I learn something new it's often complicated. It may take me a minute to catch on…

    to persuade people to believe in the things that the authors do. Catch-22 is propaganda against war, and Fahrenheit 451 is propaganda for standing up for what you believe in. Catch-22 is all about the chaos of wartime. The story is told in the very hard-to-understand way that it is to show how chaotic and messy war is. The characters are all very quirky and strange in their own ways, but I think that is meant to show what wars can do to the people involved. Joseph Heller seems to be very…

This implies that the author felt the notion to pause, meaning a significant impact waiting to happen further in the story. He and the child stimulate a vast amount of dialogue. From the moment the child called to him until the end when the boy says, “Someday I’m gonna catch a sailfish and a blue marlin and a giant tuna and all…
