So even though I feel behind an still kinda lost it has definitely gotten easier I'm surprisingly caught up with everything an I'm extremely happy

Young Goodman Brown Q&A

1) I think Hawthons purpose was to show that no matter how much you think you know a person or how much you think or are told that a person is "good" or "holy" you can't always believe it/them
2) Yes faith fits Faith very well an yes Brown does have full faith in Faith until he sees her in the forest with all the sinners
3) The link ribbons signify Faiths innocince
4) Everything Brown witnessed was a figment of his imagination conjured by the devil while he was dreaming the fact that he just slumps out of the first to hit life again an everything just be back to the way they were before an his wife prance up to him as if nothing happened shows that it was a dream but the fact that it got so intensely graphic an when ever he went to praise the lord saitnest melodies clouded his attempt
5) The old man was probably the devil the cane that sliters like a serpant the way he hissed at Brown for arguing with him the 1st time an then when he was pulling off the leaves from the maple branch an they were all dying off
6)  The staff if the represintation of Browns way there an it is all on him
7) Browns life would be different because he probably wouldn't of had that dream an he would still have faith in Faith an his towns people

I never learned to read

Young Goodman Brown review

I'm confused/.\ the "language" is so different and the names are strange so it doesn't help I like know how to pronouce what I'm reading an to me the story just kinda feels all over the place

The right to our own opinion

I don't necessarily agree with the article because I've been in an argument with people or have been being picked on an I personally look at them an say fine that's Your opinion thank you for it...like my grandfather once said opinions are like assholes all of us have one some just smell worse than others the same goes for opinions all of have one an I believe we are intiteled to it because its our freedom of speech an our freedom of speech really is just our way of learning if we don't have opinions an defiantly opinions that not everyone agrees with then we wouldn't have anything to talk about witch mean we wouldnt be learning from each other but just like the smellier assholes that we "accept" opinions that we don't agree on/with an arent changed easily we just have to accept because people are people an not everyone is going to agree with you 

Notes from Tuesday august 19

Myth-  is a story that explains things that we don't understand all myths are the same they have a super figure that reaches down an teaches an lesson promising to come back if things return to how they were
Diction- the words an author choices
Syntax- the way the author puts the words together

Reflections on week 1

1. With the exception of my slow learning(processing) skills I don't think there will be to much problem my phone only works on WiFi so I wouldn't be able to use it at school but at home im using it right now an I have a desktop as well
2. Ummm I had my grandpa come in with my dad my third grade an sixth grade year an give a presantation because he is a rock hound an has spent his entire life locating big beautiful chunks of rock mining them an then collecting them or shaping them into things an selling them
 3.I'm excited that there's an actual teacher that cares about his students opinion an wants to hear their questions but it also concerns me because I got massive social anxcity problems an don't do well talking in groups but I'm hoping that this year will help me work threw that witch will help me later in life with jobs an college 

Ancient Stories

•its more formal an descriptive the words actually have meaning an thought behind them theyrnt just the first things that come to your mind that fit the subject your talking about
•it doesn't have to be recited word for word exactly but it has to be close enough so that the story still has the use meaning an parts aren't left out having the full story is very important because if pieces are left out than the story might be interpited wrong

I'm really lost well I'm not really lost cause once I figured out how to find Yur blog everything just became easier but I'm not use to having to turn in all of my assignments on online an so I definitely need to get used to that...

Big Q

My big question is what is the purpose of life...we are told that we are free and that it is up to us to make the best out of life yet we are controlled by a piece of paper which is beyond a pain in the ass to come across an have it actually be worth something, we are at war with each other and live to impress people that we do not like we can't eat sleep blink breath walk or speak without being judged  

Your reason for taking this class

  Well honestly I'm taking this course because it is required, I am however kinda happy that it is because it seems like it will be something new an interesting to learn witch should hopefully be fun. I'm excited for the fact that you seem like a nice teacher an understanding because most of my past English teachers an I didn't get along to well due to the fact they weren't very understanding or weren't very kind. I have a lot of social anxiety problems and so I'm kinda nervous over the fact that everything is over the net an can be seem by anyone I am an atrocious speller...auto correct is one of my closets friends. But despite my terrible grammar witch I am expecting to get called out on a lot I expect that my knowledge will also go up in the aspect that I will be able to think more out of the box an possibly be able to see things in a different perspective that i wasn't able to before.
   Richard Cory wouldn't surprise an Open Source Learning network because they are in there expecting things like that. they are an open thinking class an deal with a bunch of "random" topics to be prepared for everything. Richard Cory is a perfect example because just when you think everything is fine an dandy "life" smacks you upside the head with a surprise an some times those surprises are great an helpful others well are fetal an depressing.
