Blog Assignment 4

Chapter 16 Pg.122
"Corn for a hog" he said. "Corn for a hog?" "A hog, Jefferson. You ain't no hog." Th'ow something," he said. I'll never th'ow you nothing, Jefferson?" "You th'ow a bone to a dog. Slop to a hog. You ain't no hog." That's all I'm is,"he said. He turned away" I didn't ask to be born.
This quotation indicates the conflict of  character vs  character because Jefferson has lost all self confidence and has gotten so low that he would call himself a hog. A hog is considered the dirtiest animal and to call himself that signifies that he doesn't care anymore and whatever happens just happens.
This quotation relates to the theme  imprisonment because knowing he is on death row could've manipulated him and now he sees himself as a hog, and feels there is nothing else to live for. I'm already treated like a caged animal why not accept the title as well.
Chapter 17 Pg.129
"You can talk like that; you know you go'n walk out here in a hour. I bet you wouldn't talk like that if you knowed you was go'n stay in here." "In here or out of here, Jefferson, what doesn't benefit you to hurt someone you love someone you love someone who has done so much for you?" I never asked to be born."
This quotation relates to the theme freedom as a state of mind because Jefferson has accepted the fact that he is never getting out of jail and has developed the mindset that he is eventually going to die in jail.
This quotation indicates the conflict of character vs society because Jefferson is taking his frustrations out on the ones who are trying to help him. He also envious of them because they can get up  whenever they want and just move on with their lives. While he waits to spend the rest of life, up to his execution date, in prison.

"I know you believe,"she said "You don't want to, but I know you do."
. This quotation characterizes Grant as a man who lost his faith in God.

This quotation does indicate the conflict of lost of faith. If you have faith in God, everything you want you will get with your faith; however, now that he has lost that faith things that the want will not happen, and everything else would get rougher on him.

Favorite Place

The place I would love to visit is Disney World. I think Disney World is the best amusement park on earth to go. Disney World is full amazing things to participate in. For instance, Disney World is a amusement park and a water park, so I could either get on roller coasters; however, I could just hit the pool and swim. Disney World is also filled with many characters that I grew up watching. In all, I would like to visit Disney World because I feel it would be the most amazing place to ever visit.

Blog Post Assignment 2

Individuals need to find themselves a temporary escape to let their minds drift from reality. They need to do this to escape problems in their everyday lives. They also can go their to feel free from society. My temporary escape is the darkest places I can be in. I cut off all the lights in my room, close my blinds, and shut my door. I do this to recap my day, listen to music and give myself a self analysis.
