His lunch is also quite simple; a tupperware container of soup, an apple juice box, and a peanut butter and jelly sandwich with the crusts cut off.

Entropy and Meaning in Thomas Pynchon’s The Crying of Lot 49 In modernity, the narrative of scientific progress operates under the assumption of order and linear progress. But with the rise of postmodern theory, these assumptions begin to be called into question to provoke new scientific discourses based on indeterminacies and discontinuities. The Crying of Lot 49 poses the same questions of the possibility of scientific knowledge and the search for intrinsic meaning. Pynchon follows the…

martial. There was no snot on my Ensign nose that morning. After glaring at me for a couple of seconds, he backed off, apologized, and said it wouldn’t happen again. Then, at my no-compromise direction, he apologized to the young sailor in front of my entire division of enlisted men. But I had his number and he had mine. He was always an asshole, and while I watched my back, I couldn’t wait to get rid of him. But at least I never saw him step across that particular line again, and I was blessed…

Sartre would say, “man is condemned to be free” , he means that we are thrown in this world in our own and be responsible for everything we do. Instead of realizing our identity as free beings we often pretend as determined objects. Refusing to take the responsibility of making fully out of ourselves on what we are, we impersonate as if we are pre-determined objects of the society we are born in. People tend to uphold on the outside circumscription rather making fully out of themselves. This…

I completed my observation on Friday October 14th between the hours of 9:15am - 11:30am participating with the class and completing my room observation. When I entered the preschool, the children were mingling with each other waiting for their day to start. At exactly 9:30am the teacher lightly jingled a bell to notify the children very casually that class time was beginning. All the children began to filter over to the group area each seat contained a photo of a child in the class and the…

Through the blinds, I saw a tree. Its leaves looked almost translucent in the afternoon sun as they whipped back and forth in the breeze. The fall was colder than it should be at at time of year, but I didn’t mind, I loved the cold weather. From what little I could see through my blinds, it was a beautiful day.
