Sucess in College

High school grads ask what am I going to be when I grow up. When you are done with high school and you don't know what you want to be, take responsibility by going to college to take basic classes so when you are ready to peruse a degree you have some classes out of your way. The teachers in college do not force you or make you turn in your work or even come to class it is your money and your life. Turn in your work and show up to class to make yourself feel good and so you are not wasting your money. Most classes they base have their grade on attendance and participation, so if you don't do any of that you are liable to fail that class. Instead of spending your money on something you don't like go into a career that fits your personality. When registering for classes don't take a work load that will stress you out, know your stress level and how much you can handle and your college life will be a fun and enjoy time. If you follow these simple rules that I found easy while in college you will be an A student and have an easier life.

The case of torture

In the work “The Case of Torture” by Michael Levin, Torture is a good thing. when we are on trial and not telling anybody where anybody is they torture them to us. Levin also says that torture is a unconstitutional, barbaric. Once we know that torture is ok then we save twice as many people. Torture is not to be characterized as punishment. When we break through peoples past that is more than torture, what if they had a past of abuse and now they have to relive that just to tell. Assassination is just like torture because they have to torture the person just to get the killer. There are many differences between terrorist and the victims. The victims are the ones at risk. Have you ever seen the TV show Without a trace, they have to almost beat their killers or kidnappers just so they will tell them where they are.

Literary Elements


     In the Linda Hogan poem “ Workday” she tells you how her day goes from the time she leaves to the time gets home. Linda has visual imagery throughout the poem like describing what people look like to what their body functions are when they are on the bus. The workday poem is tight so the reader senses that she has a lot of emotions bottled up inside that has not let go. Linda talks about how “her sisters are chained to a prison bed”(224)and how “her family is grieving over a lost child”. (224) The poem really has a hidden meaning that she dryads going to work because it reminds her of what it used to be like when she was young. That is in means of allegory.
     In Tom Waymans Poem “Did I Miss Anything” they go on telling the person who missed class what they talked about and how the class went. In “take as many days off as you like”(226) is a form of metaphor, some people could take that seriously and some take it as a joke and come to class when they are the only ones there. One of the students is using diction to get the point across on what they had to do. The reading of the book and a quiz over it and took an exam that was only worth 40%. You can also tell when the student was talking to when the teacher was talking, when the student was talking it would be indented and when the teacher was talking it would not be indented.
