Jake Reinvented
Jake, Reinvented Artwork
I chose to do the Artwork assessment that captures Jake’s disillusionment. Everyone thinks Jake is this awesome person, but in the end everyone gave up on him because he turned out to be something he’s not.
Starting in the top left hand corner of my drawing, there is a picture of Rick and Jennifer. Throughout the whole story it is blatantly obvious that Rick is head over heels in love with Jennifer, but since the beginning of the story Rick has been telling us this story of how Jennifer ditched him on their first date and how he knew she would never fall for him again. But in the end it turns out that he was wrong, and Jennifer ends up being in love with him just as much as he is with her. In my picture, Rick has his arm around Jennifer and an apple in the other hand. The apple represents Jennifer and Jake’s first date when he took her to a nearby apple orchard.
In the upper right hand corner there is a picture of Jake’s mansion. There are a couple balloons in the front yard that represents all of the parties that Jake throws to gain his popularity. The smoke coming out of the chimney on the roof represents the night when the party went wrong and the motorcycle started a fire.
In the middle of my drawing is the most important part of the whole story of Jake, Reinvented. It is a picture of Jake and Didi being “in love.” This is the main disillusionment of the whole story because Jake is pretending to be something he is not just so that he can finally be with the girl that he has loved since middle school. He finally gets to be with her, but the catch is that she has a boyfriend that is the star football player, Todd. Didi ends up falling for Jake just because he is becoming so popular and she thinks it will make her look better, but the truth is, she will never leave Todd no matter what. IN the picture, Jake is wearing a football jersey that represents his role on the school’s football team. Jake and Didi are both thinking of things

    Jake Cullen Quotes

    Although Coach Jessup had helped him an awful lot with having faith in himself, his buddy Nate had also helped a ton. No matter how down Jake got on himself, Nate was always there to pick him up. While Jake and Nate were hanging out in town one night, Nate had said with confidence, “You will be the first string this season.” This seems like a normal thing to say because they are best friends, but it was the confidence that Nate said this with that really helped Jake actually think he had a chance to be the first string. This book had made me think about believing in myself because it showed the change in not only Jake’s attitude when he believed in himself, but it showed in his game also. In the end, I have realized from the book QB1 that anything is achievable as long as you have faith…

    Analysis of Jake Helpern's Articles

    In person, Jake appeared to be just one of the guys. Nothing fancy about himself, very humble and charismatic. After listening to Jake speak briefly about his life, family and his pursuit of his innate being, you can tell he’s sincere and dedicated to his craft and family. Jake was also instrumental in terms of being relative due to his Western New York origins. He can relate to Buffalonians and our struggle as a city in a financial crisis, where one side of the city’s future is in question while another side of the city’s future looks lucrative.…

    Summary of Bread and Roses Too

    A character in this story that was one of my favorites is Jake. Jake is also a young child, but has so true family to go home to everyday. He barely provided with enough clothes, food, and shelter to live his own everyday life. Jake is a self-reliant kid who finds himself stealing many things for his own good. In my opinion, for the situation Jake is in, and the reason for why he steals, I don’t see him as a bad kid for stealing. In my eyes, he is a bad…

    I believe that the sunlight represents the virtue and goodness in each person. I am not quite sure about the windblown trees, but maybe it could symbolize the tormenting that Hester and Pearl have gone through, especially Hester in the town square, when she was forced to wear her Scarlet letter, and Pearl being ostracized for “being the product of a sin”.…

    Confessions Of A Sociopath Analysis

    Since the beginning of time, people have been creating art not just for aesthetic purposes, but as a way to express opinion, communicate with others, and explain the unknown or misunderstood. Often times, artists have contrasting views on the same topic and show this through their illustrations. Portrait of a Psychopath by Krista Gibbard and Confessions of a Sociopath by Jonathan Rosen are both illustrations showing vastly different interpretations of what a sociopath is. And while both images employ the artistic use of color, space, and style to characterize the sociopath, each can be interpreted to have its own unique opinion and attitude.…

    Miles is a seventeen year old boy with a smaller built body. On his head lays a scruffy brownish, black hair cut. Miles’s hair isn’t long; it falls just above the middle of his forehead. Miles’s face is dappled with acne, probably from all the sweat plopping down his face during football. He wears the casual, athletic shorts, shirt, and sneakers. On a special occasion he throws…

    Avatar Technology Analysis

    In the beginning, Jake appears to be totally disconnected and alienated from the natural environment. He can't relax because he is afraid of it and views it as something dangerous that needs to be tamed by humans. When he starts living with the Na'vi and is taught their ways, he has difficulty assimilating. As Neytiri points out in their first encounter, Jake's alienation from nature makes him "ignorant like a child" (Avatar) and unable to appreciate and live in the natural environment. However, he slowly changes and finally becomes part of nature's network. The change starts from the outside and slowly moves to the inside. He first changes on the surface, that is a change of the body, but soon Jake feels an internal confusion. He is not sure in which world he belongs and who he really is. He admits that he can barely remember his old life and that the Na'vi's world seems more authentic. He finally realizes the energy that exists in nature and learns to appreciate every living organism. He admits that he has fallen in love with the forest and with the Na'vi's way of living. He even reaches to the point of fighting against humans to protect Pandora's natural environment and the Na'vi's way of life. Jake is transformed from a contemporary individual…

    Requiem for a Beast Essay

    The image on page twenty-one depicts the scene of the boys’ father and friends driving when an Aboriginal boy jumps put at them in hopes to scare them. The use of dull colours makes the reader focus on the Aboriginal boy who has a spotlight on him from the headlights. The photo of the blurry Aboriginal child at the bottom of the page could symbolise that the Aboriginal child was slowly being forgotten or that he was in the back of the boys mind and was a constant memory. It could also tie to the theme of the Stolen Generation as children went missing and became nothing but a blurry memory for their families to remember. Next to the boy is an empty packet of tablets and this could be the illustrator’s way of telling the reader that the boy was depressed and since the background is black that could symbolise nothingness or darkness that the boy feels is engulfing him. The series of images at the top of the page could portray scattered memories that the boy is using the tablets to escape from. An excerpt from page sixty-five “them finding me on my bed, almost gone” gives evidence of the boy wanting an ‘escape’ from the grief he feels and possibly making a suicide attempt to permanently escape the dark places in the depths of his mind.…

    Theme of Casablanca

    Ilsa, a woman in the movie, has to choose between two men: Rick, whom she once loved in Paris, and Laszlo, her current husband. At the end of the story, Ilsa wants to stay with Rick, but only out of selfishness. "I don't think anymore. You have to think for the both of us." She says. This shows how she depends on Rick, and does not necessarily love him as she thinks. She uses this trust when listening to his advice about not staying with him in the end. He suggests that she is better off getting on the plane with her husband and she agrees to do so. His suggestion was hard to do, but Rick was smart about his decision.…

    Hard To Find Symbolism

    Symbolism was found many times throughout the story. The first time I came around symbolism was when the family was talking about Toomsboro. Toomsboro sounds a lot like tomb so that symbolizes the eventual fate the family will soon meet. The next symbolism I found was when The Misfit’s car was going down the road towards the disoriented family. The car was described as “big black battered hearse-like automobile (145).” The reason that this is symbolism is because a hearse is what carries coffins to funerals. The Misfit’s car represents the intimate death that the family will soon meet. Lastly, the final symbolism is the cloudless, sunless sky. Most people would think that a day with no clouds would be a beautiful, happy day filled with fun; however, this family in the story thought that but it turned out to be their worst day. Usually when a murder takes place it happens at night when it is dark and no one is around. This murder happened on a beautiful day, but the main reason I brought up this is because when The Misfit shot the Grandmother, she feel back looking up towards the beautiful sky with a smile on her face. This symbol represents that the Grandmother found inner peace with herself.…

    Fahrenheit 451: Symbolism

    <br>The Hearth and the Salamander, the title of part one, is the first example of symbolism. The title suggests two things having to do with fire, the hearth is a source of warmth and goodness, showing the positive, non-destructive side of fire. Whereas a salamander is a small lizard-like amphibian, and also in mythology, is known to endure fire without getting burnt by it. Perhaps the salamander is symbolic of Guy Montag, who is being described as a salamander because he works with fire, and endures it, but believes that he can escape the fire and survive, much like a salamander does. On the other hand, it is ironic that Guy, and the other firemen believe themselves to be salamanders because both Capt. Beatty's and Montag's destruction comes from the all mighty flame, from which they thought they were invincible.…
