I'm The Person I've Been Waiting For

The distinguishes of the person who acts up is brave enough to speak up from their opinion and their own truth of what they believe in. Others merely think about it of this is a positive, or negative results. I have the advantage as a student and a member of our community is speak out what I think it right and what I have believe throughout my life because on one can tell me what I want to say, or do because I am the only one who I control from what I want to do, or say.

Essayito

I believe that we are heading towards the Brave New World. Adolous Huxley made a point about everyone's freedom which cause us going to the direction of less and less freedom which this cause to push away from freedom and more importantly, people want to focus more on overpopulation. This was an extraordinary thing because this never happen in history before. In the past, Hitler has used high advanced technology during battle. Technology cause the change of social condition and it makes people that didn't want feel like doing something. Television, cellphones, and other technology cause too much distraction for us up to this day. This also cause people have bad eyesight like me. Drugs are very popular because it can change us from the way we are. While people have depression, they use the drugs t make themselves feel better, but in the inside, your lungs are in dangerous which cause you to slowly die like my grandpa did.

What’s So Great About Gatsby

In my opinion, Gatsby is not great. I don’t think he’s good because he has secrets to other people and he keeps it to himself instead of other. I think Nick is honest with himself. Nick constantly hang out with dishonest people because he knows what each of those people are going through and sees what will happen to them in their life. He respects them and seek out relationships with them because he knows how they way they act because that’s hows they are and you can’t change them who they are. I think it means that Tom and Daisy can’t control themselves of what they want to do. I agree with the quote how Fitzgerald describes Daisy and Tom. I don’t understand how Daisy’s behave. I also don’t agree with her choices. I would not let Daisy date someone that I know. The quote means that you mean to be yourself. The quote is related to the theme of the “Great Gatsby”. In the book, most of the time, they always talk about the past with rumors, and stories of what each person which through their life. Most of the time they don’t think about the persent time of what they are doing.
