Left-wing politics

Methods I learned in this course have helped achieve these steps forward. Proof reading out loud is a technique that I feel has helped. I wouldn’t proof read out loud at the start of this course, which left me with errors throughout my essay, I would being missing words or read it how I thought it should sound rather than what I actually wrote, when I was reading in my head. My rough draft of essay one was a perfect example of this. “Sal doesn’t have…

paved with tile floors, and the lights above flicker in a way that reminds me of a school hallway. The path is seemingly endless, constantly branching, and is a mystery. Whenever it splits I am always presented with two choices: to go left, or to go right. The left path is always bright with sparkling floors and fresh air. The right path is much more foreboding. Most of the time, I can’t see more than a few feet in front of me and the air is heavy. I always try to go down the bright, comforting…

7:50: This morning I’m back at the nursing home! I’m sitting on the opposite wall that I sat on yesterday, so a different perspective. I’m facing the nursing station which is very nice. There is a wall of cabinets on the left and the desk with computers on the right. 7:53: Someone is watching the news to my right, and has the sound really loud. I’m probably 100 feet away and I can hear it clearly. There is a nurse doing a check up on At least I think that’s what the magazines are. My eyesight…

The main section of the house is of a rectangular shape with a small rectangular ell on its northern side. The summation of these parts creates a shape similar to an L. The primary facade of the house is the south facing side. The house is of a six-by-two bay construction. There is a large covered porch with five Tuscan style columns, which dominates the facade. The house is a total of…

I walk out of my hotel and look to my right and left. I’m trying to orient my street map in the dark. Les Jardins d’Eiffel is on a side street, Rue Amélie, in the seventh arrondissement in Paris. Emily walks out behind me, giddy with excitement. She’s 17, and I’m the only adult student on the trip, having just turned 18, so her mom has allowed her to go with me to see the Eiffel Tower at midnight. “Are you sure you can find it?,” shes asks nervously. “Yes, just let me focus,” I reply The truth…

entrance, in the middle of which stood a standing metal statue of who I assume to be St. Pius, but it is especially hard to tell seeing how the oddly literate graffiti artists covered poor Pius too. I have two hallways I can go down, so I decide to go left. I see a worn sign on the wall in front of a room that says “Main Office”. I walk in, and see that this was the place the graffiti people intended to go the entire time. All across the walls read: “MURDERER”, “ROT IN PRISON”, “PSYCHO”, and “GO…

In James Baldwin’s story “Sonny’s Blues”, one can automatically identify that the two brother’s personalities are polar opposites right from the start. Sonny, one of the main characters, is more musically inclined, social and takes risks while his brother is more logical, academically successful, and reserved (Joseph). Readers may relate to this with their own family because they are genetically similar but seem to be totally different from each other. Baldwin could be trying to show that…

Mixing Fantasy and History in El Laberinto del Fuano “El Laberinto del Fuano” is a film by Guillermo Del Toro that combines fantasy with reality. Set in post-civil war Spain, the film follows the story of Ofelia, a young girl obsessed with fairy stories, who is told by a faun that she is in reality the Princess Moana of the underworld, and must complete three tasks in order to return to her kingdom. The use of fantasy in the film does not trivialise the historical standpoint, but rather…

He painted “Forest Fire” with an oil panel canvas, similar to most of his paintings at the time. Starting in the left hand corner, I see a bundle of cream, beige, and black birds flying away in a frantic. Then a multi-colored bird sits on the far end branch, almost peacefully, unbothered by the chaos surrounding it. A little below the colorful bird is an ash hawk, with its wings sprung out, kind of looks as if he is controlling the situation. Below him is two small golden deer, one of them is…
