Karen Kingsbury's The Bridge And The Bridge
Not sure if it’s because of the rain or because it’s Friday night, but there are some crazy drivers out there tonight. Soooo glad that I am off the road and home to enjoy the rest of my evening. With the rainy cold weather it is the perfect evening to do a little homework and relax and enjoy watching a movie after a busy week. Luckily for me Hallmark has on a double feature of Karen Kingsbury’s The Bridge and The Bridge Part 2. I saw the preview for this before and never got a chance to watch it. Luckily for me it is on tonight. I’m looking forward to a relaxing evening.

Anthony and Elizabeth Stanton are the famed founders of the women’s movement.

    Point Of View In Chains By Laurie Halse Anderson

    Chains by Laurie Halse Anderson is written from Isabel’s point of view in first person, which gives many advantages and several disadvantages to the story. An advantage of using this point of view is the reader sees what Isabel is thinking and feeling. “Madam will beat you bloody, he’s not your concern, it’s not your place. Go back, go back before it’s too late” (216) With this point of view, the reader is aware of what Isabel is thinking, something that would not be possible with another point of view. Knowing what the character is thinking gives the reader a better sense of presence, and in this case furthers the tension and creates a layer of uncertainty about the other characters. Another advantage of this point of view is it makes it more…

    Anne Bradstreet's The Burning Of Our House

    Anne Bradstreet-in “The Burning of Our House,” Anne was the narrator of this poem in which she expressed how she felt when her home caught fire. The Entire poem was based on Anne’s emotional state during her time of despair and how her faith helped her through.

In order to understand and relate to this poem the reader must have some form of religious belief. Anne spoke on how God took away her material items, but her faith helped her comprehend and understand that they never belonged to her in the beginning. “I blest His name that gave and took,” (14).

    Around five, I drive to meet Mark at a restaurant in San Francisco. I chose to go across the Golden Gate Bridge despite a third phobia of mine – a fear of heights. This fear I discovered the hard way when I walked with Mark and some friends across this same bridge for a charity event. I had walked barely a third of the way when I looked down at the water. A dizzying fear took hold. I grabbed the railing and didn’t budge for fear of falling, or as crazy as it sounds, jumping to my death.…

    Ray Bradbury's 'The Women'

    In the story “The Women” by Ray Bradbury, the central theme is that ‘Death is inevitable’ even if you are warned. The story consists of a man and his wife enjoying a vacation on the beach, but the man does not realize that this vacation will lead to his death. Bradbury intentionally mentions that the man is on the beach with “…a woman in a black bathing suit…” (Bradbury 104). Furthermore, since Bradbury utilizes the color black to describe the woman’s bathing suit, this foreshadows the death of her husband because the color black symbolizes death. Additionally, the story takes place in autumn since “It was the end of the season. September. Things were shutting down…” (Bradbury 104). In other words, Bradbury uses fall because that season symbolizes…
