here are two reflections on my work the first on is a letter to the boys as a little summary. Dear boys of america
As a young man of 19 i just got out of the bs of high school. I can tell you that the real world sucks about the same as school. Like school only certain people care about anything you are going through. From me who never let emotion out it's time to let more than just anger out. If your sad and need to shed some tears then do it don’t hold it in. crying isn't for everyone so turn it into something productive. this is how to see the counter argument in a different way unless u missed it in the paper Bill, boys have gone soft on us. Logan, depends on what you mean by soft. Boys aren't going out to pick fights with other people for no reason they try to talk it out. Is that soft or progress. Boys don’t just go around and objectify women they want to get to know them. Is that soft or progress. Boys don't work in construction or an auto shop making nothing now. They build computers and make millions to support their families. Is that soft or progress. Beginning

we talked about the assignment and what we needed for it. here is a link to see if it met all the criteria for my research project
This course has challenged a lot of my writing ideas. Every literature class before this teaches the same thing with the same over all theme that there is only one way. This course has shown me different ways to understand writing. The biggest one for me was about symbolism. Other classes always said that the door meant something in writing. This course taught me that it is really just a door but what it represents. There is always hidden meaning if they didn't mean to put it there. I plan on after this course to study up more on this style of writing of many ways to get a point a cross with not just facts but personal stories. The new modern writing that is stepping away from the MLA format of writing we all grew up hating.
this week in class we made posters for the films The Mask You Live In and Miss Representation. we used the transcript. this is what the class created
In only a 7 day span my emotions get shaken like a blender as my grandmother lay there dying with no help. She was gone there was no getting her back just letting her go easy. The heavy zombie like breathing of a so far four day long sleep. She has been acting weird for months weirder than normal. That final month of us just thinking she is crazy we find out that she has Glioblastoma the same thing John Mccain had. My family never heard of any of this before. The rush to the hospital to see her. The doctors say that this can’t be cured just slowed. The surgery was good but the recovery was when it went down. She had a stroke which made about a year left to a month. I saw the down fall from the joyful breaths down to that zombie breath. It was hard on everyone that ever knew her. That last week was the hard one. Started out she was talking then the one night we went home came back and she was just asleep. It was about 5 days of her just sleeping with that breathing. Days and time was an illusion. There was times i woke up in the lobby of the hospital or the waiting room or her room. We stayed all day in shifts so people could go home and shower and change. That 6th day her son that lives in california came to see say his goodbye. She was still breathing at that point. He came in around 1 am and we all sat and talked until around 3 am. We all went home beside him he wanted alone time to sit and talk. I had a feeling i don't know from where but as i left i knew it was over. As a group my family all got up around 8:30 am to get ready to start again. Middle of me getting ready i hear my mom call me and my sister in a whimper voice and say she is gone. It took me a second as we are almost ready why not in 10 more minutes and we could have been together. She waited for her son and left us as we already said the goodbyes.
this is what i think of my paper. Wizard of Oz: If I Only Had The Brain, Heart, Nerve Wizard of Oz: Meeting the Wizard Wizard of Oz: You've Always Had the Power these videos show that you always had what it took you just needed to

In the https://wolfweb.unr.edu/homepage/calabj/298/Hillslikeelephants.pdf my emtion i felt was the same tough decision I had to make that would change my futtur for the next couple year. I enjoy the drive from point A to B. just the control of speed and maybe where point will B but its all up to you. I enjoyed getting to point B fast. Not because i do not enjoy the wind from the window or the loud music from the spechers but because the thrill of seeing the mph reaching past 80 to 90. It was time to get rid of my first car it got me through high school but needed to be an adult. Asking my parents “i want something to be proud of” Parents answering “how about this little 4 door” “No to much i want this specific car to be flasher not in the shadows like high school” “This one is fast isn't it” “Yes but it isn’t the car you go to a car show to see” It was a long battle to get my dream car that I wanted from a young age. Months of back and forth for the car i would enjoy for the drive. The it showed up as if it was sent with my name on it. Perfect price, milage, color and year. I get to the dealer get about to sign and then parents can’t cosign. The decision to keep going or just give up and get what my parents said from the beginning. 2 days past from the failure to get it the first time and i get a call from my girlfriends dad. I thought “oh god what happened to my girlfriend he never calls me.” we go through the hellos and how are yous and he says “sorry to hear about the car but are you still interested in it.” “Of course i am it my dream car” “Well what are you doing saturday morning the day of you birthday party.” “Nothing why what do you got for me” “I got accepted for the loan and we can go get your dream.” The decision was there i had a dream in my hands and time to show my girlfriends dad i can be a man for her. So we get my dream and it's not like many peoples dream but mine i get to see everyday. My dream can go 0-60 in 6 seconds is a nice bright red with white stripe and is a 2010 Camaro. I went through at 19 that in one decision that changed my life to make my dream come true This is The Proust Questionnaire and these are my answers to it
