Blog 4 Street car named desire
Stanley and Stella are madly in love with each other. In this book the marriage between Stanley and Stella is shown on many occasions they love each other no matter what anyone says. Blanche didn't see a reason for Stella to be with him. As she ask why she don't leave him, she replies "I'm not in anything i want to get out"(45). This quote means, she doesn't feel that she wants to leave him. Another part in the book that shows their down for each other is even at Stanley worse, being drunk and enraged, Stella took it upon herself to come and settle him down, although he hit her. The people around her see they love each other a lot. Mitch tells Blanche "There's nothing to be scared of. They're crazy about each other."(42). This just show their love is unique and different in the way they show it.
I believe Mitch and Blanche has a thing for each other. As I read this play, it was clear Mitch had interest in Blanche because during the poker party Mitch attention was more toward Blanche. He left the poker game to talk to her, and as they was talking he complimented her. Mitch say's you may teach school but you're certainly not an old maid."(38). They both discover something they had in common which was on the cigarette case ,an inscription they both knew. Blanche actually was attracted to Mitch because as she seen everyone at the table she told her sister Mitch had a "sensitive look"(34). She was finding out if he was married. I just think they are going to hook up in this book.

What is art
What is Art?
Art is one's feeling and imagination put where people can admire it. Art is a way to express yourself. Art tells story and has a meaning.
What makes a work of art a work of art ?
The things that make a work of art a work of art is the usage of colors and details. The different cultures ,religion and different perspectives.
In which ways is a work of art different from any other object?
With art you can see the emotion someone put in their art work. You can see what he was thinking about when he was drawing this.
group project
artist is marc Chagall. We chose this painting because it caught our
attention and it looked really different. In the painting marc seems
to be the main object facing a sheep. He and the sheep are made up of
other little objects like goats, an olive tree, a church, scythe,
houses, and a woman milking a cow. It’s nice because it looks like its
night in towards the back and its day towards the front. The painting
is actually telling his story when he went back to pairs and was
remembering his past from his village. Looking at his other painting
like “Calvary” we saw that he has a different way of painting. He uses
different shapes and it looks like a whole bunch of cut outs pastes
together and it just happens to look like something.
final
Have
you ever had a goal ? Of course you have and my goal is to be a better
writer by the end of this semester. I want to be able to write better
than I ever wrote before. What I mean by this I want to improve my grammatically
mistakes, sentence structure and my transitional sentences needs to flow
better. To show my improvements I will receive an A in my writing class.
Another thing I will notice is my fear of writing will decrease and I will
write with more confidence. These tasks must be achieved in order for me to
become a better writer.
I need to improve in all categories of
writing. First my grammar
has to get better by me showing more effort into reading, instead of me doing
other things. While I’m on the computer doing non productive things I can be
studying or reading. Also when I’m texting I will stop abbreviating my words. Next I need to improve my sentence structure.
My comma usage needs to improve so my sentences could be more sophisticated. I
do not make a lot of run on sentences but I want to lower it to none. The last
thing I need to improve is my organization of
my writing and I plan to improve it by getting extra help. One way is
getting help from the school, which means going to the writing center instead of
the gym. The writing center has tutors there to assist me with the writing ofmy papers, and may even
teach me a few new techniques in writing
that may improve my upcoming papers.
Another way is getting help from my fellow classmates. Thanks to my teachers we
have ways to contact anyone if we need help, for instance through texting, emailing and on their individual bloging.
Those are all substantial changes needed to be done if I want to improve my
writing.
In order to show my improvement I must
receive a good grade from my writing class. As I look forward to improving my writing during this
class, I must give it my all. I know its not going to be a easy road, but I am
fully capable of making this change. Right now I am struggling to write this
paper because I am easily distracted and not giving it my best effort. This
class is testing my dedication to become better at writing. I must communicate
with my teacher so she can guide me on the right path of becoming a better
writer. As this class progress, if my grades increase steadily. Then my writing
is improving, but if it decreases that means this paper means nothing and I
lied to myself. I know that I am going to get a high grade in this class.
Writing
my written assignments without anxiety is
a sign of my improvement. When I was in
elementary school, I was the worst writer in most of my classes. I would try my
best to avoid participating in written work by acting out in class. I was the
class clown to hide my problem, which
was I couldn't write appropriately. I was not a bad student, I just was not
disciplined enough to keep trying to improve instead of giving up. My mother
tried to get me extra help, for example a private tutors and learning centers such
as Scores. It helped me improve a little but not as much as I would had liked,
so I gave up on myself. In math, I was a 90 student most my life. Math was my
favorite subject because I was confident and good at it. Because I was so bad
at writing, it became more of a fear for me. As I got to junior high
school nothing changed for me. I still was barely passing my writing classes
but in math and other subjects I was doing well. My confidence in writing was
real low. Being a competitive type of child, I was not happy that the other
students in class were better than me when I was great in every other subject.
My family is very competitive with each other. I was compared to my cousin in
school every year. He had better grades than me mostly every year. I want to become
more secure in my writing, so I will gain my confidence.
In conclusion my goal is to improve as a writer. Some ways I can do that is to read more, increase my
vocabulary hence my sentence structures
and my transitional sentences will flow better. One pay off for all my hard work, I should receive a
good grade in this writing class. Another way I would know if I accomplish this goal if my fear of writing
diminishes. and I will feel new confidence within myself. All this will show I
have achieved my goal.

My goal is to become a better writer ,after finishing this English 101
class this semester. I want to write better than I ever had
before. What I mean by this is I want to improve my sentence
structures, decrease my grammar mistakes, improve the organization of
my ideas, I want to write better than my mother and I want to write a
essay without help from anyone. I believe this can be done by the end of
this semester with a lot of hard work. I need my ability to write to
improve
because it holds me back in life. Without good penmanship your
opportunity of job will decrease substantially. The instant benefits I
would receive for becoming a better writer are excelling in school ,
improve my methods of expressing myself and improve my communicating
skills.

I also needed some grammar improvement. She just told me i do not right a good first page, but if when i write a rough first. While rewriting my rough draft, I end up seeing all my mistakes. Rewriting it actually helped me improve it and catch all my mistakes. She really helped by giving me that idea to always write a rough draft first then when rewriting it correct it.
