Personal Response A man had been standing at the blank intersection for a while now wearing a brown worn-out shirt and baggy pants‚ not quite appealing to anyone but yet caught the attention of many. He was not moving‚ not even an inch‚ like something had grabbed on to him purposely making him immobile and blankly staring across the distance.

British Literature Hinkley 8 Dec. 2012 Personal Response Jane Austen’s novel‚ Pride and Prejudice‚ is a great representation of how life in the 1800s would have been.

The women in this novel‚ searched

Lesson 1-Personal Response Agamemnon I believe that Agamemnon is a protagonist character with selfish intentions in the play‚ Agamemnon. Although‚ he does make a few errors in his period of ruling.

Taylor Swift has written so many songs‚ but I chose “invisible” because I can relate to this song a lot. She started singing when she was really young. All of her songs have some sort of story to tell‚ and I really enjoy listening to her music. Taylor Swifts music has a lot of meaning to it‚ mostly about how it was for her growing up. But this

Personal Response to Dear Daddy The short story Dear Daddy by Lee Maracle brought me back the tears that I‚ too‚ had as a child. I felt pitiful for the main character’s experience and deeply impressed by the thirteen-year-old girl’s courage of getting over her negative feelings for the past and going on with her life. The story‚ written in the form of a letter‚ shows the process of a thirteen-year-old girl becoming more mature as she expresses her grievances from her tragic childhood. At the beginning
