Tangible Characters In The Things They Carried
In the story, “The Things They Carried” the author describes the many tangible and intangible things the Lieutenant and soldiers carried in war. As a highschooler, I too, carry tangible and intangible things with me. Just like the characters in the story, these things weigh me down, either physically or mentally, distracting me from the pressures from school, but I learn to deal with them and keep moving forward.
Some of the tangible things I carry in my backpack on a daily basis are my notebooks, chromebook, pencil bag, math book, binder, water bottle, snacks, money, phone, and earphones. In total, my backpack weighs about 16 pounds. These items in a physical manner, weigh me down, especially when climbing up the stairs at school.
