Immigrants in our land

 Theme:Expectations vs reality
Tone:sad,lonely
Devices: Imagery, symbolism
Free verse because it doesn't go together like a normal poem
My Impression: I thought it was serious and very calm.I liked how he used immigrants as prisoners and his land as jail.Also on how immigrants they have exceptions and later on those exceptions become nothing to them they are worthless dreams they had.

A sound of thunder

From this story i understood that Eckel is hunter who went out to the safari , but not just any safari but the one of the pass where no man was alive yet to hunt a dinosaurs.He get strict rulers where he can't step out of the pass and he was only allowed to shoot when he was told to.If he didn't follow the rules he would be charged an extra 10,000 and also he would mess up the future.

NOTES

Now in days you ask others for advise ask but you really just need to ask your self

Emerson for the young buck

Emersonis trying to tell us to follow our  individual will instead of conforming to social expectation.Where you should do what you want and makes you happy not what others want.

Emerson said it

1."What i must do,is all that concerns me, not what the people think"
-indepent spirit behind yourself
2."To believe your own thought, to believe that what is true for you in your private heart, is true for all men that is genius"
-each person can achieve his greatest genius by listening to him self.
3."Not for nothing one face,one character,one fact,makes much impression on him,and another one
-something express him alot.
4."The serect of fortune is joy in our hands"
-joy in our work.
5."The gods love him because men hated him"
-people aren't going to like you if dont do stuff that they like .

American voice

I speak up when i think someone is in danger or if something doesn’t seem right.For example if someone is getting bullied.Without speaking up people won’t know whats going on and if no one stops a bully he/she would think its okay to bully someone.Always use your words if not you just showed them how low you can fall.

Team vocb

The presidential debate was aggravating the American people. Donald Trumps supporters are hypnotized by the things he says. He also accused Hilary for being a liar and he would put her in jail if he becomes president. His ideas will transform America to chaos. I think Donald Trump should be suspended from from the debate for not acting professional. The future with trump will be melancholy for the citizens. Meanwhile others are anticipating Hillary Clinton plans will be good for the country.

Big Question

Why are people afraid to show the real person inside of them to the world?Why do people judge them for who they are?

The right to your opinion

Knowing your rights can always be useful in this world full of injustices.Its true sometimes you don't have the right of your opinion because sometimes others might disagree.

Richard Cory

This poem can be taken in many ways but in the way i see it i see it as if its talking of a men who in the outside looks very happy, descent and a very good person, but in the inside is emotionally hurt and tries to be a stronger person on the outside. So never judge a person without knowing what really is going on with him or her.

Earth on turtle's back🐢

There was one important message in this story and it was to never give up even when everyone else doubts you. Also this short story made me realize that there is more on this world than just what we see,hear,or smell.
