    In this year, the main idea of what we have read and watch is life will constantly changing. Both of The Metamorphosis and The Time You Have In Jellybeans want to give us an advise that is we need to using time to do what we want to do. Because you will never know what will happen in your life. As same as universe, we can not control and forecast what will happen. So we need using rational time that we have. Than I can avoid the trap in my life.

    My favorite work is Gimpel the Fool. Because I think there has some people just like Gimpel in our life. They are really good person and have forgiving heart. I think these kind of people are what we need in our society. For me, the most meaningful assignment defiantly is Poetry Out Loud. Poetry Out Loud is not only an assignment for me, but also is an opportunity for me to show my courage for english. Also I learn from Poetry Out Loud and "Where I AM From" a lot. Thorough these two assignment let me know I need to my confident and do not be fear. During this year, I kept to try new things that let me know what I still need to work on. So I tried to be a sparker in my class. Fortunately, I think I am a speaker now. Because Poetry Out Loud and "Where I am From" gave me a lot of changes to stand in front of my classmate to read my poem. For me, I think I still need to work on my writing skill and grammar.

    Gogol used an unimpressive person to be master in the Overcoat that really satire gap between poor and rich and government's incapable. In The overcoat, Gogol used the new coat criticizing during Tsarist Russia, government's incapable. When Akakiy wanted to ask the high official's help, the high official asked Akakiy a question "How dare you?" , than did not really answer Akakiy. These official not only look a person's status, and also contempt poor people . The significance of the Overcoat is want to change Russia society, reduce gap between poor and rich and want to people realized spirit is more important than martial. Akakiy's ghost always haunt the people of St.Petersburg because the new coat symbolize Akakiy's faith that he wanted to have a glaring life. He could not give up his faith, so he chosen to haunt the people of St.Petersburg.

    Hang Zhao is my Lennie. He always does some silly things in front of me. And we always share stories what happened when we were kids and talk about our feelings in different conditions. He is not only my boyfriend, but also he is a very good friend to me. Sometimes, he did not know some famous things. So I always need to explain to him. He is a strong Lennie. I always have better idea than him.( Hahahaha :)

    "Hell is other people" that is definitely true as same as in the " No Exit". For Inez, Cradeau and Estelle are dead and they did some wrong things. In the no exit room, they told each other what happened in their life. So they are very knowing each other. But their relationship are very complex because Inez loves Estelle and Estelle wants to staying with Cradeau. Since they know each other, they try to using each other's weakness to control each other for what they want. They lost their heart for obtain what they want. So Sartre believes that "Hell is other people".

    Crane's worldview is that no matter how we are close to success, some unexpected things will happen. Then we will fail. The oiler is strong than other people in this boat. But he was only one person to died. Meanwhile, Crane's worldview is that the world is unfair.

    The significance of the Montressor of family coat of arms means if someone hit or bully members of Montressor of family, Montressor of family will revenge this person. And " human foot d'or, in a field of azure; the foot crushes a serpent rampant whose fangs are imbedded in the heel". "a filed of azure" that means Montressor of family always have good future. "serpent" means they do not fear other people and hurt others. Also it means their family have power and huge property.

    For the make of Sammy' action, i hold that is normal teenage will have impulse of act when them were mud or angry. Probably they will do same action just like Sammy. Sammy quit his job that is really stupid and unthinking. His motive, I think he just be tired of his job and want to stir up these girls notice. Also, he though that is unfair to these girls why they can not shopping in the A&P. So that he decided to quit his job. Whatever, I interpret after he leave the A&P, he regret about that. Because he can not have a stable job. And he quid this job for three strange girls. Maybe he is proud of himself about that.

    First time I saw him in the hallway. I could not move until my friends called my name. He is older than me. He is not look like normal Chinese. He has a special hair that is blond hair in the sunshine and good skin. Also he has an attractive eyes. I liked his smile that made me feeling warm and kind. I wanted to see him everyday. Fortunately, my classroom is near to his classroom. I stood in front of window to see him in the break time. Every time he has eyes contact with me. I always was shy and can not look his eyes. I told my friends I like him. they said 'why you did not talk with him. if you can try to talk with him, maybe you can be a friend with him.' I was afraid and nervous. A worst thing was happened that is my all classmates know i like him. I did not have ideas who told them. So one of classmate bet I could not talk with him. My friends abet me to talk him. I did not. But I wrote a letter to him and when he rest and sat under the basketball stands, I gave the letter to him. That is first time i speak to him. I was nervous and fear. However, I was near to him a step and I was happy about a week. I have his phone number. Every night I sent messages to him and he replied. One day, I knew he loves others that made me sad. I gave up because he has a girlfriend, is not me. Since he got a girlfriend, I did not never talk with him again.
