Hero or stooge? Hmmmm

Is John proctor a Hero or a stooge? Well, in the story, his actions say he's a little bit of both. But generally, I think he's a good man, because even though he made mistakes like ADULTERY.... and seems kinda selfish at times. He's a good man :] No one is perfect. So reading a story that consists of a character(s) that's perfect is just plain BORING!

Sinners in the hands of Angry god

In class the other day, we read a story called "Sinners in the the hands of Angry God". The story is about how people used to think that god would have a Bow and Arrow pointing to your heart, ready to release it any moment. Because of this fear, the people prayed and wasn't allowed/ too scared to "have fun". So my opinion about this is that.....THEY'RE CRAZY! Who in the world would believe that? they had to live in fear for their whole life! However, I understand that there's a difference between the beliefs now and before. The people grew up believing this myth. So they didn't know any better. 

There goes the neighborhood...

One of my earliest and fondest memories was when my family and I lived in an apartment that 2 other uncles and my dad owned. We lived on the first floor, my 2 other uncles in lived in the second and third. Life was great, especially since i have so many cousins that are my age. I remember playing hide and seek, it was the best when you were allowed to hind anywhere within the 3 floors. But then everyone started to grow older, so it was about time to find our own houses and continue our own journeys. My uncles and their families were the first to move out. I was too young to really understand what was happening. However, I did understand that we didn't live that far apart from one another.

The neighborhood that my family moved in was really close to my old house, so it wasn't too big of a change... Or so i thought. I remember having the nicest neighbor. It was pretty cool how we both moved in around the same time. Even though they weren't kids my age, we spent plenty of time talking and joining the neighborhood events. Events like spring cleaning, cook outs, and block parties. But over time, the man's wife died because of old age. He eventually moved back to Mexico.

This is relevant to the very first peoples of our earth during the paleolithic times because they too moved to different place. They had to adapt to new environments, and if there's people that already occupy the land. They had to communicate with one another. I experienced the same thing. The only difference is that I didn't move, the others who "already occupy the land" moved because of death. But back then, people moved in search for food. One thing that both of us share is that over time, things started to change.

Introduction

    Hi! My name is Amy. I'm a Sophomore. This year, I have many goals to achieve. One of my goals are to write better compositions. Also, I want to enjoy the class. I want to feel like I've earned that A in the class. I plan to ask questions and participate in class as much as possible. Most importantly, I would like to apply the concepts I've learned in the class to all of my other classes. By the end of the year, the other goal that I plan to fulfill is have more confidence in my writing. Because of all the years of holding back and under estimating myself, I want to know that my work is good enough for others to admire.
   My meaning of American Literature is How American writes. I think this class consist of learning and reading different ways writers portray their own kind of American writing.
