Self-Reliance essay

Emerson's title is Self-Reliance. It's called Self-Reliance because you're the only person who can tell yourself what to do and be who you want to be. In the essay, he pointed out the main idea about tone, diction, and syntax. This essay didn't help me because I already have my own mindset to how I want it to be. I put my foot down when people try to run my left. I don't let that happen because I do what I want and I become who I want to become.
     In the essay self-reliance written by Emerson, his main idea for tone was inspirational. It's inspirational because in the essay Emerson said " the soul always hears an admonition in such lines, let the subject be what it may" in other words this to me means to stop listening to others, and start being who you want to be, rather than someone your not. This is inspirational because so many people expect everyone to be the same. everyone is different but not many are truly themselves. They just let people tell them who to become and how to live their lives, rather than living their life just the way they want to.
     Diction in Emerson's essay would be allusions and analogies of historical figures. Emerson believes that people follow the head leader so they can protect themselves and their wealth. "self-reliance is its aversion". This shows the audience that they must be willing to speak the truth without being afraid to say it.
    In self-reliance Emerson's syntax is philosophy because he has long paragraphs, run on sentences and uses big words. "there is a time in every man's education when he arrives at the conviction that envy is ignorance... given to high to till" this is a long sentence.
    All in all in this essay on Self-Reliance by Emerson. He is basically saying to be your own person. You are who you are, not to be someone else. His words have a strong meaning.

Emerson for the young buck

If I would have to explain " on Self-Reliance" to a ten-year-old I would say don't let someone control your life. If you feel someone is trying to control your life then step up and tell them " this is my life and I do what I want and become who I want to become". This is your life and not someone else to control, you're your own person so be yourself.

young girls grabbing older guys attention by what they wear

When girls walk down a street wearing shorts, why do older guys have to turn around and look? like i don't understand why older guys have to look at a girl that way! Its very disgusting. Not only has it happened to me but it happens all the time to a lot of girls. Honestly the guys that look at the girls wearing shorts or tank tops happen to more Mexican people. Now I'm not trying to be rude but if you pay attention to the guys out in the streets, stores and party's it happens to be more of the Mexican people. Like I don't get why they do this. Speaking from a personal experience I feel uncomfortable when guys as old as thirty years old look at me when I have shorts. Is it my fault i want to wear shorts when its hot? Like should i not wear shorts because it grabs the older guys attention? Like that's what my dad would tell me " don't wear shorts if you don't want them to look at you" like is it really my fault?  I think people just need to learn what respect is and stop starting at these young girls wearing shorts and tank tops.

Something interesting about the book im reading

Something interesting in the book " the summer I turned pretty" is how Belly leaves every summer to go to her mom's ( Laural) friends beach house. Susannah has three sons. One of her sons named Conrad asked Belly if she wanted to go to the boardwalk with him. When they get there he buys her a Carmel apple and himself a coke. Then after Belly finshed her Carmel apple,they head to the ringtoss. Belly thought he wanted to win her a stuff animal. When they arrived he was just looking at the girl working there as if he likes her. Belly asked him if he wasnted to get to know her. He said yes. So Belly went up to the girl and starts a conversation as ses talking Conrad hopped in the conversation. Belly ran off to the Ferris wheel to leave Conred. Later that night he comes to get Belly , he has a stuffed animal in his hand. Belly later found out the girls name. But at the end of the noght Belly was heartbroken because she liked Conrad. She thought Conrad wanted to go to the boardwalk to spend time with her but he only went to see the girl that worked at ringtoss.

I find my 8th weebly from Avid , there isn't much on it but its a start. I wish I could log on but I cant so this sucks.

prom

The picture to the left was prom day!It was a wonderful day!It was even better because I got to go with my best friend (the white girl).When she and I found out that we were going to prom together we were so happy!Well the guy I went to prom was my best friend and I later found out he liked me. and well he texted my ex.I just got so mad so I almost didn't go to prom with him (the one on the far right)

This is my best friend, she's always has been there for me.She can be a bitch, I sometimes want to kick her ass.Well, anyways we found something interesting about the guy she went to prom with!He is going to be getting married less than 8 months!It's a shock because he only has been with this girl for 2 months.The guy's name is Luis, he was with my friend for 4 months but yet he's getting married to someone he has only been with for 2 months.I find that very funny because I texted him and was like " so I heard your getting married". He texted back saying "yes I am, I've always wanted to get married". so you're telling me that he's the only reason he's getting married to someone has been with for 2 months is because he just wants to get married.

This is the guy I went to prom with.We don't talk but honestly, I wish I still do because I miss talking to him. Last time I talk to him was when I texted him about his jackets and his shirts I have of his. The last time he said he was in L.A. watch is sad because honestly, I do miss him. I honestly did like him but I told some people I didn't because I was still head over heels for my ex. Well, he texts my ex about me one night.I found out because my ex-message me saying " Steve texted me saying your talking to him" and I said the truth that I was. Well, i cut Steve off because I thought he was being immature because why did he have to text my ex? Like there was more said but that was just the basics.
