My Pillow Book Report
1. When the book first starts off the book talked about mr. Peabody and how he catches the baseball teem.
This reminds me of when I was a little girl and played t-ball and soft ball. I could remember being Luton the field waiting for the ball. However, I wasn't as expected about playing as Billy is in the book. I like to play the game to a point but standing out in the field I got bored and would play with my glove or in the dirt.

2. There is one part in the book were mr. Peabody teaches Tommy a lesson about spreading rumors. He uses a pillow to make his point. He tells Tommy to cut the pillow in half and let all the fathers out.
The only thing I can think when reading this part is how mad my mom would have been if I did that to my pillow.

    The imaginary invention I like the most is “Dreamaker Pillow”. The purpose of Dreamaker Pillow is to help people with insomnia by creating dreams. All you have to do to make a dream is downloading your favorite scenes from movies onto cell phone, taking selfies and sleeping with Dreamaker Pillow. This will make it easier to sleep. One thing I like about this pillow is that I can create my own dreams. Though it takes time to create dreams without given plots. But this pillow is definitely going to help me with my sleep problem.…

    After reading this brief section of “The Pillow Book,” I believe that the things, events or situations she considers not good or proper are those that differ from the unique cultural value and concept of Miyabi. Miyabi is a refined courtly taste and a perfection of form and color. Many of the things, events and situations described directly differs from this concept and in ancient Japanese societies, this concept was very much valued and important. This is especially shown in the 5th example of hateful things in which Sei Shonagon describes “the sight of men in their cups who shout, poke fingers in their mouths, stroke their beards, and pass on the wine to their neighbors with cries…” This example shows how Sei Shonagon has seen well-bred people behaving like this and violating the concept of Miyabi which has caused it to be distasteful. In my opinion, the concept of Miyabi and the reasoning of her evaluation is based on social aspects as Miyabi was formed upon a concept of how to behave socially.a.…

    Since I own a muscle car (Dodge charger R/T), It was easier for me to explain to him why I was siding on the side of muscle cars. I was very confident that I was going to win this argument and quite frankly I think I did (self-imposed prophesy). The text Looking out Looking in explains in chapter two that “self-imposed prophecies occur when your own expectations influence your behavior. I also knew that for me to present my case properly I had to use Identity management. The text Looking out Looking in defines Identity management in chapter 2 as “ the…

    “GET HOME!!! GET HOME!!!” Those were the words my dad would yell from the third base coach’s box as I passed him rounding third! Baseball to me is more than just a game! Baseball is a passion, fueled by the desire to succeed, the passion to overcome, and the dedication to be great. A baseball field to me is like a stage is to a dancer or an open road for a biker; I just love every aspect of this amazing sport. It’s the field with its seemingly unfair depth, its soft green grass and the infamous red dirt, that make me have the passion for the game like my father did as a child. My life seemed to be limitless when I was in between that fence. Taking cuts on the tee, putting together a pickup game that didn’t matter who won or lost, or even on those days that practice seemed to never end, I still had the love for the game.…

    The Pillow Method

    The day after the Presidential Election, my girlfriend Amanda and I discussed how we felt the next four years might go for our country. Due to our slightly opposing views (I say that very lightly), the discussion quickly turned heated. One issue that was brought up in the conversation was abortion. I am very Pro- Life, whereas Amanda is wishy-washy when it comes to the subject. Whilst beginning our excruciatingly draining chat about a touchy subject, I naturally went on my “defense mode” and used Position #1: “I’m right you’re wrong”. I started a rant of how abortion should be abolished in this country, and how inhumane it is. I was raised in a Catholic family that has always viewed abortion as murder, so in my mind, how could there be any other side? As the conversation progressed, I calmed my speech a little bit and let her take center stage. Amanda brought up, “What about the cases with rape and incest? Also, if the government makes abortion illegal, they are going to go back to old-school methods of termination. Think about how dangerous that is. People will find a way to do it, whether it is legal or not” I started using Position #2 of “You’re right, I’m wrong”. I said, “You’re right, people have been having abortions for thousands of years. Making a law that would abolish it would do nothing.” This is where we came to Position #3 together. “Both right, both wrong.” She agreed that I had good points to my side, and I agreed that she did as well. Also, we agreed that some of our own views were a little bit extreme due to past experiences that we both had during our lives, thus making each of our arguments biased. This led me to Position #4 that “the issue isn’t important”. Although this issue is still extremely important to me, I decided that I was not going to get so heated to the point that I was going to let opposing views ruin my closest friendship. Lastly was Position #5, “There…
