    I would describe Hazel as probably being a lower class uneducated female. I would have to take a guess that she is uneducated because of the way that she talks and the fact that she is cleaning out a Howard Johnsons restroom. I also think that she may come from the south from the way she runs words together to form other words. As far as Hazel’s personality goes, there is not a whole lot of information to give me a proper idea as to what kind of person she may be. I would have to say that Hazel is rather sassy with her attitude. I think that the idea of a frog coming out of a toilet and proposing that if she kisses him she will become a princess, in all reality, is quite terrifying. And I find it quite funny of Hazel…

    From the very beginning the author shows how confident Hazel is. Hazel sticks up for her brother. In the story it says, “... and the next word out of anyone and i'll be their mother to.” This line shows that Hazel, is confident, because to speak up to someone like that you have to have courage and confidence to show people who is boss. Hazel is great at that.…

    When he is in the city he runs into a so called “blind” preacher on the streets. The blind man was preaching that there is a God and that people need to give to the church through him. Hazel was very upset about this and started attempting to preach that there is no God and they need to follow him when he starts a new church without a God. When Hazel goes to the place where he is staying, he finds out the “blind” preacher is staying there too. This really makes the situation worse for Hazel. One night Hazel went into the “blind” man’s room and lit a match to see if he was really blind. He had been lying about it. He was just a crook after people’s money. He was using God to make people feel sorry for him and that would in turn make them give him…

    The Outsiders

    ‘The Outsiders’ written by S.E Hinton demonstrates that violence can cause much change to a person on the inside as well as outside. This book became an immediate success when it was written during the 1960’s and was based around the reputation and the stereotypes of that current decade. If you were a kid growing up in Tulsa, Oklahoma you either belonged to one of two groups, a “Soc” or a “Greaser”. In this book, there are many differences between the two groups, which tends to cause much violence. S.E Hinton has much authority to write about this violence because she has seen it happen firsthand. In The Outsiders violence occurs at its very best. It affects people in different ways, changes people – physically and emotionally but also causes very positive outcomes which turns into a lifelong lesson for both the Socs and the Greasers.…

    One of Green’s strengths is creating believable characters – people we could recognize in our own real worlds. They are loveable or despicable, but we adore them all for the very fact that they are “right” – they fit the world he has created and they serve a purpose in the grand scheme of things. The Fault in Our Stars is no exception to this Green-rule. From our main character, Hazel, who is sick but refuses to let that define her, to her parents – who are strong and weak, open and secretive; from Augustus, who is so consciously self-absorbed that he – and we- are actually able to enjoy…

    Background does not matter when you are a hero. In the book The Outsiders by S.E Hinton, the author argues that heroism defines a person by their actions not by their background, history, or looks. The events at the church, the incidents that happened before the church and the aftermath all show the changes that happened over time that would eventually negate Ponyboy’s history and background and regard him as a hero. There are different points of heroism in the story and different forms of heroism in the story but for now we are going to look at the most important three, Cherry acting as a spy, Ponyboy rescuing the kids and what he was defined by before he was a hero.…

    The Fault in Our Stars relates to Laura Fermi’s idea. This book is about a teenager, Hazel Grace, whom has cancer. She attends a support group because her mother felt she needed to learn to socialize. It is a great thing she did because at this support group she met the love of her life, Augustus Waters. Both Hazel and Augusta’s fall into a magical romantic trance. Neither would have expected anything to go wrong. An example of ignorance in this book is when Augustus tries to ignore the fact the cancer has come back. He would not tell Hazel or anyone. He kept it to himself and pretended everything was perfectly fine. Augustus was ignorant because he didn’t acknowledge the fact he was sick and couldn’t do as much as he used to do when he was well. Pushing himself and ignoring the facts made his condition worse. Another example of ignorance in this novel is when Hazel tries to ignore the fact Augustus was sick. This was ignorant of her because if she accepted it maybe she could of helped him through this tough time in a better way. This is represented though conflict.…

    It’s almost been two months since Augustus died. I feel pain everytime I think of him, like I’ve taken out my cannula and have no oxygen, I can’t breath, like I’m slowly slipping away into nothingness. My need to see him is growing, with every tear stained moment, my want to hear his sexy tone of voice, or to see his crooked smile one last time is worsening. Oh, what I wouldn’t do to see my star crossed lover one last time. He gave me a forever within the numbered days, and for that, I will love him always.…

    The Outsiders, by S.E. Hinton was written in 1967. This novel tells the story of the conflict between two different social groups, the greasers and the socs.

    Sociology is everywhere we look, its everything thing we are, and can be described within everything we do. The traditional focuses of sociology have included social stratification, social class, culture, social mobility, religion, secularization, law, and deviance. As all spheres of human activity are affected by the interplay between social structure and individual agency, sociology has gradually expanded its focus to further subjects, such as health, medical, military and penal institutions, the Internet, and the role of social activity in the development of scientific knowledge. Looking through films you can see many sociological themes. I chose to look at “Mean Girls” and pull the sociological themes out.…
