O' Brother, Where Art Thou?

My favorite part of the movie, O' Brother Where Art Thou? was when they were singing a song at the radio station. It was great how most of the movie had music in it. Out of all songs, I just liked the song that they sang in the radio station and the stage in front of people. The facial expressions of Everett, Delmar, and Pete were quite funny too. This movie was the best movie we have seen in class so far.

Epic Simile

When I woke up this morning, my heavy eyelids felt like a giganitic 300lb sumo wrestler was sitting on them as if he was to stay there for the rest of his life and as I tried my best to open them, they were closing so helplessely like the way the World Trade Center building was collapsing after the attack of the terrorists.

Of Mice and Men Project

For this project, I decided have a research on the Wall Street in the 1930's. Since I have been interested in the 1920's to the early 40's, I thought the Wall Street in the 30's would be quite interesting too. The Wall Street in the 30's was possibly the worst moment of its history. Because of the Great Depression, majority of people, especially the enterprisers of Wall Street suffered severely. Even though this topic seems quite easy, there could be some challenges that I might have to face.
I researched about the Great Depression and other events relating to it. The topic of Wall Street in the 30's was sort of vague, but I thought it'd be just fine to do a research about the economy of that time since it was mostly related Wall Street. However there wasn't any severe problems that I had to face during the research. The only problem for me was to decide which part of the Wall Street (history, economy, etc.) was I going to find out about. Obviously I decided to research about the economy, since that was the most important thing during the 30's.

Romeo and Juliet Glog

Video: Romeo and Juliet

The love between Romeo and Juliet was severe, and by the time they were seperated, they probably were feeling mad and severely anxious, as much as the video's German child was. As soon as the couple was seperated, Juliet started crying, not because of Tybalt, but because of Romeo's banishment. Her attitude towards her father also changed: she was not an obedient little girl anymore. The German child in the video was calm and possibly excited for whatever he was going to do with his computer, which could be compared to the moment when Romeo and Juliet were together. Then, whatever the child was doing started to go wrong and wasn't really working out for him, which could be compared to the part where Romeo and Juliet had to be seperated. Then, the child started screaming and destroying his computer, which could be compared to the part where Juliet was all depressed, sad, and disobedient towards her father.
