    As Laurell K. Hamilton, a famous American fantasy writer, once said, “There are wounds that never show on the body that are deeper and more hurtful than anything that bleeds.” This quote directly applies to the little-dark-puppy-kicked-too-many-times character named Johnny Cade from S.E. Hinton’s timeless novel The Outsiders, who has both mental and physical scars from his horrific beating at the hands of the Socs -which not only linger upon his skin, but also penetrate his heart. In chapter two of this engaging and teen-centered novel, we dig deeper into the past of Johnny Cade’s life, thanks in part to a captivating first-person flashback from Johnny’s fellow Greaser, Ponyboy Curtis. While Ponyboy and his fresh friend Cherry Valance, a Soc…

    When watching Hallmark network films, it is quite common to see certain actors featured regularly, and sometimes we don't even think about learning their names or looking up their other works, especially if they are in supporting roles. However, I have discovered that if I delve a little bit deeper, I often find that I come across incredible talent, and I understand why Hallmark chooses to highlight these gifted actors again and again. Matt Hamilton is one such actor. No matter what role he tackles, his presence on screen cannot be ignored, and he is one of those memorable personages. Recently, I had the opportunity to chat with Matt about his nontraditional journey into acting as well as his upcoming works, including Death Al Dente: A Gourmet…

    For this assignment, the movie I decided to watch was called ‘Avatar’. This movie is about humans, or “sky people”, travelling to the planet Pandora to conduct studies over the natives that live on the planet, and to gain resources that the planet provides. The natives on Pandora are called the Na’vi, and they are blue creatures who are much different than humans. One of the humans that travelled to Pandora to study the Na’vi is named Jake Sully. Jake is a paralyzed ex-marine who decided to travel to the planet after his twin brother passed away. He came to be in the program where he takes the body of an avatar, so that he can learn more about the people on the planet. The air on Pandora is poisonous to the sky people, so they have to use the…

    Pandora. Within James Cameron’s Avatar, it is a world filled with wildly exotic plants and animals, often with little resemblance to our own world of Earth. It, like Earth, harbors it’s own sentient species, called the Na’vi. However, the Na’vi are a much more primitive race than humans, and do not react well to human technology and disregard to nature. The movie follow Jake Sully, an unfortunately disabled marine who’s twin brother was a leader in the Avatar program, which consisted of transferring human minds into Na’vi bodies, intended to help improve relations with the native Na’vi. However, Jake’s brother is unfortunately murdered in a mugging, but their identical DNA allows Jake to take his place. Jake, while totally untrained for such a task, accepts the job and, in a fit of irony, ends up being the one ‘human’ Na’vi accepted amongst the natives. Through a long series of events that will be reviewed here, he eventually switches sides and leads the Na’vi in driving the humans from Pandora, and transfers into his Avatar body so he can be with his lover. There are two hero’s journeys within Avatar, the first being Jake’s goal of being accepted into the Na’vi’s society, the second with pushing the humans from Pandora.…

    The China Coin

    Individual who possesses a strong and unique personal or cultural identity will intensify their sense of belonging or not belonging. In the novel, the China Coin, by Allan Baillie, explores how personal and cultural identity of the protagonist, Leah Waters, could be changed from alienation of not belonging to acceptance of belonging by experiencing physical and inner journeys. In the beginning of the novel, Leah senses alienation and distanced toward China as she identify herself as an Australian instead of a Chinese. The monologue from Leah’s mind, ‘Couldn’t the woman see? She was not Chinese, not even an ABC – Australian born Chinese. Joan was Chinese, but Dad, David Waters, had been English. Didn’t it show?’ suggested that Leah identify herself that she does not belong as a Chinese. A similar situation is also described in the film Avatar, directed by James Cameron, when the…

    Everyone in the world always has something that they can’t control. Most people (mainly kids) can’t control lots of things that happen in their lives. If they work hard and strive for what they want, they can overcome their obstacles and have more control in life than before. I know that people of all ages can agree with me there. This concept is apparent with lots of characters in books, articles and all forms of literature.…

    The most prevalent theme in the film is globalization. This connection between AVATAR and anthropology can be found from the very beginning. The humans in the movie leave earth and travel to Pandora to mine the planet just as the pilgrims and other settlers left Europe to go to the Americas in search of new homes and other matter. Humans bring to Pandora their traditions and values and to them the natives are different and demure. In our somewhat similar history; globalization led European ideals, and later US ideals, to be imposed on the native cultures with little regard for the local people and their customs. You see this in Avatar with the humans trying to force their will on the Na'vi and how they don't care about the existence of a real Mother Nature, the power of their magical forest, and how what they are doing is going to destroy the Na’vi…

    Unpredicted events can change a person. This is what happened to Larry from The Razor’s Edge by W. Somerset Maugham. The decisions that Larry has made might seem a bit selfish to some readers but the word selfish involves a lack of consideration for others, therefore, Larry does not fit in that category. He may be a bit troubled, hence, the decision to “loaf” and travel to Paris for some type of enlightenment. (32)…
