mission, the team would encounter various obstacles such as hurdles or having to slide across a skinny railing. Instead of using physical objects, any complications were shown using dance. I really enjoyed the way they gave the impression of jumping or crawling over something with a specific dance move. Each teammate would repeat the move made by the one before them, and sometimes a new sequence would start before the previous…

As Dennet mentions in the text, deception is done so by animals in their nature to distract their predator away from their territories or families, and he provides the example of the ground-nesting bird luring away it’s predator by acting that it’s wing is broken (pg. 91). Dennet believes that as humans, we engage in “intentional” activities as it is habitual for not only us humans, but for animals as well. Referring back to the ground-nesting bird, Dennet also mentions that deception feels more…

She described the wallpaper as “repellent, almost revolting; a smouldering unclean yellow, strangely faded by the slow-turning sunlight” (Gilman 3). The hatred for the…

tiny crawls that sound like the scratching of skin. Porcelain white termites crawl from the minuscule hole in her wooded floors, march from under her bed up the bed frame, from the length of her loose hair to the inside of her head. They once tried crawling through her mouth but they vowed never to make that mistake again.…

whether I’d admit it to my mom or not. What she doesn’t know is that it was a turning point in my life that I am actually grateful for taking place. This past summer, a ladybug was crawling beside me and I had decided to test the waters. I reached over allowing it to lift itself onto my finger.

In the book “The Metamorphosis” by Franz Kafka, there are two ways to view the main character, Gregor. Kafka portrays Gregor as a bug. Theorists believe that the bug is a symbol for something else.When symbolically viewing Gregor as a bug, one may come across the idea of annihilation or believing that Gregor has a mental illness.

kept in long and narrow beds or cradles because the puritans believed if the baby would stretch their legs they would walk faster.
