Frankenstein

I believe that the supernatural element in a Gothic piece of literature is the most effective element. I believe that the supernatural aspect of Gothic literature is the most effective because it adds a mysterious feeling to the story. The supernatural world has, and I do believe will always, captivate and entertain the bounds of the human imagination. This captivation and entrapment of the human imagination is the exact reason it is the most effective element for a piece of Gothic literature. In the case of Mary Wollstonecraft-Shelley's Frankenstein, the supernatural idea of a monster pieced together from previously deceased pieces of tissue and then reanimated with electricity is no exception to the boundless wonders of mankind. This monster learns to speak and to read and at one point even plots the murder of Victor Frankenstein's younger brother William. This idea that a man can be made from deceased body parts and be a fully functioning person who thinks and can even have the drive to murder is something that could entice even the least interested reader to think twice before passing up a novel of such caliber. This is why the supernatural world is the most important factor in any piece of Gothic writing.

OGT style essay paragraph

Some say life full of disappointment, I disagree. Life is not only full of disappointment but also full of achievements and dreams. It is these dreams that carry us forward. In my tenth grade year I have had many difficulties, achievements, and aspirations.

What OGT test I am the most worried by

The Ohio Graduation Test that I am the most worried by would be the math. I am most worried about the math test just because I know that on the math ACT there were questions ranging from algebra 2 all the way back to pre-algebra. This worries me because the OGT will more than likely have a question range the same as the ACT and I do not remember much from seventh and eighth grade math. The way that I can prepare myself for the math OGT is by asking Mr. Vasi for practice pre-algebra and algebra questions. The only way to be successful on the Ohio Graduation test is by recognized my trouble areas and correcting the issue. I know that if I receive the assistance of teachers that i request that I can, and will, be successful on the Ohio Graduation Test.

Jim's Journey

"The Alaskan Bull-worm!" yelled Jim as his friends and him had crossed the Canadian-American border into Alaska. Jim then knew in that moment that the only way for his friends and him to make it to the Dave and Busters in Alaska, and complete their life long goal of visiting every Dave and Busters in America, was to use the boxes of paper clips he had and fashion a rope out of them to wrangle the beast and tame it. Jim stressed to his friend Bill that if he did not get over his fear of driving semi-trucks, and just take the wheel ,there was no way that any of the friends would make it out of there and to the Dave and Busters in Eagle River, Alaska. As Bill took control of the massive vehicle Jim interlocked the paper clips and formed a noose to get around the bull-worm's throat. As Jim lassoed the beast he realized that the normal paper clips would not work, but that he would have to use a lasso of paper clips blessed by Morgan Freeman himself. Luckily in that moment Jim's friend Terrence remembered that he had invited Morgan Freeman as a surprise for his buddies once they reached the Dave and Busters in Alaska and he was inside the trailer of the semi-truck. Terrence quickly climbed out of the truck's cab and into the trailer attached to the big rig. He called out to Morgan to only find out that nobody was there. Terrence thought to himself, " No! We hooked up to the wrong trailer." He began to think of what the friends could now do to survive and he realized that the bull-worm should not be attacking them for they were Americans and the bull-worm was supposed to stop Canadians illegally crossing the border. Terrence ecstatically exclaimed to his friends, " Stop attacking the bull-worm and it will leave us alone, it is here to stop Canadians!" Sadly for some reason Terrence's theory did not pan out as the bull-worm relentlessly continued it's onslaught.  The bull-worm attacked the truck cab and tore the roof off and in one swift bite swallowed Jim and his friends. The second the bull-worm scooped the men into it's mouth he spit them out because he realized they were American when he tasted narcissism and arrogance. The men confusingly stumbled and were attempting to ask the bull-worm why he spared them when suddenly he shot into the ground and disappeared. The men decided it was best to not question what had just happened, but to continue on their trip to complete the Dave and Busters challenge.

If I ran Thanksgiving Dinner

If I were to be in charge of Thanksgiving dinner I would have my grandmother and mother help me prepare the dinner. The dinner would consist of sweet potato casserole, rolls, mashed potatoes, turkey, and for desert pumpkin pie and pumpkin role. I would only invite my family to this dinner. With my family being my Grandma, two Grandpas, Mother, Father, Sister, and my uncle. I would keep it at just family to keep it simple. With inviting family it is much simpler than inviting other people. If I invite family I know what they like and dislike therefore I will be able to prepare and accommodate to these certain preferences. Unlike most people I would not want to invite any celebrities or anyone of that nature due to the fact that I do not really know them therefore I could not accommodate them appropriately. I would not want to invite someone over if I did not know what they prefer. This is how my Thanksgiving dinner would go.

If I could go anywhere in the world.

I would go to Costa Rica. I would want to go to Costa Rica because I have never been there and want to visit a place that is a warm island environment. I prefer it there because I would do Eco-help I would help clean beaches and restore the pristine environment and help make a safe environment for the wildlife that habitats the beaches. While I was there I would finish building schools and homes for the benefits of the villagers. I want to swim with dolphins while I am there and go zip-lining also.

Why Technology is Important

Technology is important in life for any generation that is alive. It is important to have technology because it advances life and improves our life longevity and standard of living. Technology also opens millions of jobs and has a prospect of billions of dollars for anyone to take a slice of. Technology can help in everyday tasks but also in medical treatments. If we as a society went back one hundred years to 1913, the longevity of life and standard of living would be drastically lower. one hundred years ago dishes and clothes were washed by hand, entertainment was not available on demand, planes and cars had just been recently invented. While technology is helpful and important becoming dependent on it is something to be wary of.
