RESPECT MY AUTHORITY

An authority figure could be a priest from church. They can make you feel good and bad. Priest threaten you if you do something bad. "You won't go to heaven" or " You're going to hell" and other stuff cause of your "sins". You can't be your self. You always/have to be a good perfect person. I'm not trying to say that you have to be a bad person. Sometimes you could do something bad and regret it but in church,  it will always be a problem against them.

Presidential Debate

The debate was one of a kind. Both Hillary and Trump sounded like a joke. They both aimed at the each other's problems are taxes and Emails. Trump couldn't back up his argument , he would interrupt Hillary whole she was speaking. It's funny that many people think is fucked with these two running as president.

My AERIES

I got a B- on my essay. I wasn't really ready to write the essay , the graded wasn't what I expected. I didn't really put much information like I should. A B- is good enough because I added some things on the essay.

Literature Analysis Questions #1

1. The book I'm reading is called Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs.  The beginning of the chapter the plot is in New York City. A young teenager named Jacob had a weird experience with his Grandfather stories. His grandfather had a crazy childhood back in the 1940s during world War 2. The story goes when Jacob's grandfather tells him about men following him and trying to kill him . Before  Jacob's grandfather died he told Jacob to visit an island near England.  Jacob soon finds out that his Grandfather's stories were real.
2. The theme is the story is dark, it has a strange feeling when it comes to the stories from the grandfather. Also when he gets killed.
3. Based on the author's tone , he seems to be very creative and descriptive. To describe Ransom Riggs morning routine , he could be drinking his coffee and eating breakfast. He could be on his laptop ,looking for ideas to creative fictional stories with dark history.
4. The author does a good job in the tone, he describes how the character feels. He puts a picture in my mind , knowing how the setting is.  The author also puts me in the point of view of the Jacob , the way he sees things.
