    In this passage, Larson officially introduces the character of H. H. Holmes as he roams around a Chicago train station. Larson’s purpose in this passage is to characterize H. H. Holmes’s persona as well as his tendencies around women in order to foreshadow his behaviors later in the book. According to Larson, Holmes possessed a sense of confidence that- in addition to his good looks- naturally attracted many women. He had, “dark hair and striking blue eyes,” and with his confidence as well as his sense of fashion, Holmes often created the impression, “of wealth and achievement.” Larson then employs a metaphor, connecting great murderers to having, “blue eyes,”- alluding that since Holmes has “striking blue eyes,” he is possibly a great murderer; he also uses a metaphor to compare Holmes’s eyes to those of a “Mesmerist,” connotating that he possesses a powerful sense of control over people- particularly over women.…

    The contrast between the idea of being silent and being vocal is evident in the interviews. For example, Joanna decided to skip the question requesting her opinion on same-sex marriage, yet she was vocal about the discrimination that LGBTQ community has faced and continues to face, albeit to a lesser extent: “…I think they’re gaining access to a lot of rights that were denied to them in the past. They’re not being discriminated against them as much as before.” This pattern of silence and vocality is also evident in Cool Cat’s narratives. Cool Cat decided to pass the question that asked her opinion on same-sex marriage, thus reinforcing her silence. However, she was rabidly vocal on the barriers and discrimination that the LGBTQ community faces.…

    It was a warm sunny day, like the ones you would expect in a summer camp; laughter was the melody that filled the air. Everybody was cheerful and enthusiastic, well everybody except one of our counselors. He was very worried, because his sister had been extremely sick, and nobody had been able to heal her. Everybody in my group had told him how sorry we felt for her, but really nobody connected with his situation, so we were not thinking about it. Instead we were immerging our souls into the contentment that was surrounding us. That day while we were acting, everybody was relaxed, focused and happy on what we were doing. We were living in our own little summer bubble. We decided to take a small break, in between the laughs I remember a friend saying “Isn’t it surprisingly amazing how beautiful life can be?”. That was the last sentence said before a cell phone rang and changed the course of the day.…

    In exploring the themes of identity and belonging, individuals (are the individuals exploring the themes? That’s how it reads.) will make sacrifices against certain things in order to belong in society, this usually results in the loss of identity. In life, many people will have to make very difficult decisions, which lead them to make sacrifices or compromise. The most common sacrifices and compromises are usually personal, such as against family which may lead certain people to take up another culture, against sexual orientation which may lead the person to quit something they love doing and against education which may result in the loss of family tradition.…

    A person's identity is the essence of who they really are. However, the way an individual is viewed can shape their identity but only slightly. Identity usually comes through from an individual’s beliefs, opinions and experiences nevertheless; appearance and social status can also play a role. In today’s society, perception and the way someone is seen tends to be more important instead of an individual’s ego and self-worth. This is because every one of us has a tendency to try and fit in society and follow its expectations and standards. We believe that the ‘ideals’ society has set up, is what we must follow and fulfil in order to be accepted. The image of a person can be deceiving as it reveals only the exterior of an individual, but not their true character. This is not always the case however. Identity can be determined by various factors such as relationship and particular people they choose to surround themselves with. Identity is not always influenced by the perception of others, it can be displayed though ones beliefs, feelings, attitudes and so on.…

    My writing for essays’ isn't all that perfect, and there are some things I really need to work on. One of the first things I should attempt to work on is my vocabulary. I feel that my writing is sometimes boring and words can get extremely repetitive. Working on vocab words and their definitions in class have strengthened my word use a bit. To solve this problem, when I read over my essays, I could try and find words that seem really common, and express my creative writing by using a more complex word. For example, I can look up synonyms to different words, so I have a more intriguing prompt. Vocabulary is one of the most important parts to having an essay that people would be excited to read.…
