Free Write

Im apprehensive about sharing my writing because its not really the worlds best writing so its not that amazing to share and plus im just got the sharing kind of guy so i dont really believe in this kind of stuff. My fear about sharing my writing is that i fear that people wouldnt like the stuff i have typed and thats just a bit of a let down but its all good. The best case scenario is that i might be able to get some positive feedback for my essay and thats always good and my worst case scenario is that i will get no feedback towards my essay and thats no good now is it haha

The Dreadful Coldness

The cold makes me want to just lock my room and sleep and play Black Ops all day and i do that all the time because i always keep my windows open in my room 24/7 so my room stays a warm 50-60 degrees or so and i like the coldness in my room because it gives me a excuse to keep my pajamas on all day which is really comfy and i will sleep like half the day and all the stuff and I'm trying to play xbox and sleep at the same time I'm getting there but right now its not happening and the cold also makes me want to drink alot of hot tea, coffee, and hot chocolate

Strengths and Weaknesses stuff...

I believe my strengths and weaknesses are that my strengths first are that i can make good stories and stuff like that and thats pretty much it at the time and my weaknesses are that i dont make good paragraphs and just horrible general english which is a bad thing i guess if your typing a essay haha and i guess i have bad punctuation and all that good stuff. Now i have to try and to have no weaknesses and just have strengths! Which will be hard..

The Awakening

The first few chapters of The Awakening were very random and didn't make much sense to me so i kept reading a few chapters until i realized what they were doing... Well not really this whole book was very confusing and i don't like confusing books because it bores me a lot and then i just totally forgot about the book and didn't read past chapter 7 so i didn't finish the book and i guess that's a bad thing. Hopefully i will finish it, just when i have the chance or free time to read it again. But what i heard from reviews is that its a really good book and I think i should of read it but i didn't so i think i missed out but other then that, that is pretty much my whole response because i didnt read at all.. Maybe next time..

Chapter 31 - yo..yo..

The beginning of the chapter is that marija is stil laddicted to morphine and she remains a prostitute and wants to still be one for the resto f her life whihc is really sad because i dont think anyone has ot go through that buti guess if you have to do it or die thats acceptable but still... Jurgis is with a magazine editor and agrees to listen to his proponents of movement and Jurgis discusses the unsanitary conditons the workers are in and the meat packing. Nicolas, a fierce socialist explains that the movement wishes to enact public ownership of the means of production and that no worker should be working countless hours to just survive in the jungle and he should work 2 hours a day and devote the rest to personal interest.

Chapter 27 and twinty eight

Chapter 27:

Well to start off Jurgis is a begger again which is very sad and not cool D: and he dosent have a job and its very hard to get one again. What is sad is that he should of just stayed in his old job it was alot better then begging on the streets. I also liked the part when the lady kicked him haha it kept me from falling asleep i guess haha. Whats sad is that he wants to go see his family but the police take him and he can only talk to them for a little bit and that was sad to me :( and jurgis goes back to jail

Chapter 28:

I thought it was dandy when Jurgis gets a false identity and no one knows that he beat up conner. Its sad to see Jurgis on the streets again because he once had a wonderful place to stay and be but now he lost it all and he lives in the cold streets. Its cool to see jurgis talkign about the horrible capitalists and teaching people their bad and to shut them down!

My summary of all the chapters:

I thought that these two chapters wereh eartbreaking for me because just the fact that Jurgis is on the streets again when he had a wonderful place to stay and be and he blew it by going back to jail and how he can talk to his family for only a few minutes
