second primate I saw was the White-Faced Sakis are known as (Cebus capucinus) they are shy in the wild, opposite of the Orangutan.They are diurnal (active during the day) and arboreal (tree living). I saw three White-Faced Sakis when I went to the Como Zoo. It was hard for me to tell how old or young they were, beside being small you can tell if they were babies but it was hard because their face looks swallowing. They have a great leaping ability and that’s how they got the nickname “flying…

Quickwrite (Tannen Quote) Yes, I agree with Tannen’s quote because it speaks the truth. We have the tendency to treat people the way they look: “como te ven, te tratan.” These are also known as first impressions. Also, we label people in order to help organize and process what groups are similar or different. The benefit of seeing the world in patterns is that we organize society. Also, it’s great because some people actually do want to be a part of a group. They feel pride about actually…

maracas, and murals of homes and people in Mexico on the walls on the restaurant. There was also traditional Mexican music being played in the restaurant. Our waiter us gave our greeting in Spanish and then translated it into English. He said “Hola, como estas?” I also noticed that most of the workers seemed to be of Spanish or Mexican descent.

The last two lines of the poem we see the poet reflect on the above mentioned and her loneliness, and she uses these lines to show her disapproval of Péman during the civil war. This is why I translated, “y quiero comprarme a plazos una flor natural como las que le dan a Pemán algunas veces.” As "and I want to buy myself a natural flower in installments like the ones sometimes given to Pemán." If she were a supporter of Franco regime she would have bought the flower without payments, but she…

doing despite being a dreamer. She always talks about how she gets invited to go do talks at city hall and other events, and I am proud of her, I truly am., but the language that bothers me is when she says “Mi hija anqué no tenía papeles triunfo no como estos bagos que no hacen nada y tienen papeles.” I feel that this is always an attack on people like my brother who have been robbed of opportunities due to the circumstances that out community and society has created. I do not mind celebrating…

For the majority of people around the world, our imagination is something we use as a tool to escape daily life. A way to rejuvenate our souls, a quick passage to a world away from any problems we may have, yet most importantly it is a way to remind us that what is real, is in fact real. In Miguel de Cervantes’ novel ‘El ingenioso hidalgo don Quijote de la Mancha’, the main protagonist Don Quijote has trouble separating what is real to what is only in his imagination. Throughout the novel, Don…

Driving through the town on a damp morning, breathing in the crisp air as I think about how lucky I am to be able to I’ve in this town. Many put the town down about being small and such. But it’s a small town, so there isn’t much to do unless you're an outdoorsy person. If you love the outdoors, then many outdoor activities are easy to do. We are blessed to have the mountains surrounding us with white snow caps, the Bitterroot River flowing close, and forests to explore. The pleasure of…
