We all know that tragedy is not a good thing for us to happen. Do we really know the real meaning of tragedy? this word might made you think only on dead. Tragedy not only consist on blood but on the consequences this always brings. now this heappen very often in our world.
The news, not long time ago showed us the catastrophe of the huracane catrine and the collapse of the twin towers. they were called a tragedy not only because the USA losted a lot money. they were called a tragedy because many families passed through difficult times. this caused them to sufere constantly. This unfortunate events changed many people's lifes.
The story of Romeo and juliet was an excellent explanation of a true meaning of tragedy. a very strong feeling made this characters to be together even in their graves. For them to loose their own lifes was a symbol for their love. They only whished to be together. Their families were responsable to suferethe agony of tragedy.
So that you can see, tragedy is n0t only dead. Tragedyis also agony, sadnes and sufering. The meaning of tragedy could only be known to those who bhave love. If you do not love you will not have to deal with tragedy. I think we all know this word and the meaning already.

Edgar Allan Poe was a great poet who lived around the late 19th century. Many people have debated over his cause of death. Some say he died of rabies and others alcoholism. There is lots of evidence against and with both of these causes of death.The evidence of Edgar Allan Poe dying of rabies is very strong. He had a cat that he left back in the Bronx. Some say that’s a little suspicious. The evidence of him dying of alcoholism is strong to. Some of his relatives say that he was a very heavy drinker.
Booth of the causes of death is strong. But I think that the best cause of death for hem is rabies. Rabies because he had a cat and I guess he was scarred so he left him in the Bronx.

Romeo And Juliet

I will be writing about the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet.

First of all there is a lot of tragedy that happend in this, book but its worth reading because its a pretty good book even though its long.

First tragedy is that the Montigues and the Capulets hate each other and a lot of people die because of this hatred between the family.

Another tragedy is that Romeo meets Juliet and i think thats a tragedy because their family hates each other but they dont know that and that sucks for them.

Another tragedy is that theres a lot of people that are going to diefor example Romeo and Juliet and Lady Capulet

But before that Romeo and Juliet wants to get marred but Lady Capulet and Capulet wants Juliet to marry Paris but juliet doesnt want to cause she loves romeo.

Rochelle Solonia - Final Exam Essay

There are a lot of theories about Edgar Allan Poe's death. The people studying about him are still unsure of how he died. Some say he died from alcohol poisoning ans some say it was rabies.

Dr. R. Michael Benitez thinks that Poe was slandered and was not drunk. From the way Poe was hallucinating and shouting out imaginery friends, he thought that it could have been rabies. After all that he seemed better, but the fourth dayafter he was found, Poe got angry and confused, then he calmed down and died.

the other other author Burton R. Pollin disagrees with Benitez. He says Benitez is wrong about Poe's death. He says that Benitez admitted he had no evidence of a scratch or bite for Poe's rabies theory. Another man, Dr. Joseph Snodgrass, aslso disagrees with Benitez. There was no proof that Poe wasn't drunk.

Benitez says he didn't admit of any scratches or bites on Poe. He said that it didn't really matter even if there was or wasn't proof because it isn't inconsistent with the diagnosis.

I would have to agree with Snodgrass and Pollin, but then again Benitez's theory could be possible. I think Poe probably didn't die from either drinking or rabies. He couldn've died from something else.

I think Poe died from an Alcohol overdose because in the article of Poe final days Joseph walker said that he saw Poe drinking to much and that he became very ill and that he needed Imediate Assistance and that he had a look on his face of Vacant Stupidity. I think this because maybe his family in Boston kicked him out becuse of his drinking promblem It also said that Poe lived in a bar maybe thats were his promblem started or the reason of his drug overdose. The title says it all ''If only Poe Had Succeeded Whgen He Said Never MOre To Drinking'' Plus when you drink you get frustrated and Poe was like that and he wanted to fight this guy.

Initiation has 3 too an dthose are abyss, mentor and transformation and the last one is the return and the return just has one and is the creation.
I think the hero's journey works like a summary becuase the heros contain the main ideas from the literature text
I choose for these essay "the odyssey" becuase I think is th e most easy to talk about it
the separation, calling I think is when ody starts the journey when he try to go back to homethe treshold when ody have to pay pledges rights to the god's for be unrespectful with them. the descent is when ody starts to see what is gonna happen to hin and his men's in the journey.
the initiation, the abyss is when ody visit the land of the dead becuase he meets with his mom on that place and is the most difficult time for ody.
The tranformation is when ody is in home and is gonna kill teh men's who wants his wife. And the creation is whne ody learns his future but he didn't tell his men's.
So that's what I think aboutthe hero's journey I think the hero'sjourney is an importatn tool for understand more better a text.
In the films I think works in the same way like inteh texts becuase is not much the differences becuase in sometimes we do first the heor's journey to get an idea to what we are gonna read and watch.
The hero's journey I think help me a lot becuase when we start to read a book the hero's journey help me o get an idea an dwhat is happen inteh section to we are reading.

Victor Reyes Final Exam Essay

The Hero's Journe is divided into three stages, they are the return, separation, and initiation. All these three stages are divided too. For return has the creation, the separation has the calling, threshold, the descent, and the initiation, has the transformation, the mentor, and the abyss.
The Hero's Journey works so well to summarize a story, movie, movie, and stuff like that. You can get the small ideas, and convert them into the main ideas of the story. In the Hero's Journey we can organize everything in a simple way that we can understand it. Because sometimes the teachers give us papers within the informationand sometimes we don't understand that information in the way that its organized.
For my Hero's Journey i chose "The Odyssey". Because that was one of the stories that i really i pay attention to . So that means that its way easy for me to explain it.
Everithing started on troy when ody trys to back home. But when he finally finds the way to go back home, and he finally leaves troy he never thank the gods for helping him to leave troy withouy many problems on his way. But while he's going through his journey he gets in lots of trouble. Thats when the Hero's Journey comes in.
The initiation and the abyss is when ody goes to the land of the dead and he sees his mom and his mom encourages him to get back to his kingdom. The threshold is when he leaves troy to his way back home. The mentor is when he saw his mom in the land of the dead and she tells him to not give up because his wife and son were waiting for him. The transformation was when he wanted to kill all the guys that wanted to take over his wife and his kingdom. The return is when he gets home and the dog recnizes him and dies and also the lady that was washing ody's feet. And when his son finally meets him. The creation was when he decides to turn him self to an old guy and wait to see what was going on and then make his move to recuperate his kingdom.

Brandon Hinojosa Final Exam Essay

In the article "Poes Death is Rewritten as case of rabies,not telltale alcohol" the writer tells us about what rabies does, like when someone or somthing has rabies they would not want water and poe didnt. then in the article of "poes Final Days" by kenneth silverman he stats that poe is in a chair semiconcious and dressed in clothes that look like they havent been washed in a long time and he doesnt know how he got where he is now.In the article "if only poe had succeeded when he said nevermore to drink"this writer tells us the effects of rabies like it makes you itchy and gives you other symptoms like when it makes you itchy it can effect a whole limb or one side of the body.in this article "rabies death theory the writer tells us about poes fiances cat that had rabies and died and how it taked a year for symptoms to show for rabies.

I think that all of the people who think poe died from rabies is wrong.He didnt have any symptoms of rabies like itchinh or any other sensations.They didnt have any proof that he got bitten by anyone or anything that had rabies.

Then the people who believe poe died from alcohol could be wrongto because they didnt have any proof that poe drank any type of acoholic drink because they didnt run any test on him.to tell us that he was drinking at any time.

But i believe poe died from alcohol because he had alot of symptoms of some one wha has been drinking like when he was sitting in the chair he didnt know where he was or how he got there and he was falling in and out of concousnous.then when he was in the hospitol hes was talking to imaginary people and stuff on the wall.so there for i believe that Edgar Alan Poe was killed by to much alcohol.

Aubery Markham edgar allan poe

Edgar Allan Poe died by an animal infection,rabies rather than to the traditionally maintained cause of alcoholism. Dr. Benitiz admits the primary weakness of his theory-lack of evidence of a bite or scratch. In those days, rabies was well known as to cause and symptoms, including itching and other sensations that could affects an entire limb or side of the body. he also may have died of rabies encephalitis.

They say that Poe's cat gave him rabies. Poe started to dress weird that's how they knew that something was wrong with him. He had a look on his face that was a vacant stupidity. Poe was abusive and ungrateful. He was admitted to a private room for his drunkenness.

Poe arrived at the hospital in a stupor, unaware of who or what had brought him there. He went unconscious until 3 o'clock the next morning. His face became pale and was drenching in sweat. Poe started to doze. he started to go crazy.

He resisted the efforts of two nurses to keep him in bed. He was like an alcoholic.

Claudia Nava-Poe-Extra Credit

The Rabies death Theory could have been the reason why Poe died. His cat could've had the rabies and transmitted them to Poe. Poe could've also possibly had contact with a bat and he could've gotten rabies from the bat. Even though they don't have the proof that the rabies were transmitted by Caterina (Poes cat), it is possible because there were no vaccines to cure animals of the rabies.

Poe could've also died from alcohol because they said that just a little bit of alcohol could've made him violently ill for days. So I dont think that they can be very sure that alcohol is not the reason of poes death. They also cannot be sure that Poe always avoided alcohol beacuse they weren't always watching him around the clock. I also think it could've been just an alcohol problem that he had when he was younger.

After reading this article, I dont think that Poe died from rabies. This article indicates that Poe got really drunk and he exposed himself to the rain and the wind. I personally think that Poe overused alcohol and that is the reason of his death.

Based on all these articles, I think that Poe died from alcohol overuse. I think this because I think they have more evidence to support his drinking theory than they do of Poe getting rabies. Also, they can't be sure that Caterina died from rabies because they also say that she died of starvation. If Poes death was caused by rabies, I think they should've at least noticed some symptoms. So until now, I think the cause of Poes death is alcohol.

Poe died from alcohol

I think Poe died from alcohol because it was Election Day for members of congress, and like other local watering holes the tavern served as a polling place. Poe seemed to walker " rather the worse for wear" and " in great distress." Apparently flooded with drink, he may also have been ill f4rom exposure.

also according to moran and his wife poe reached the hospital in a stupor, unware of w ho brought him there. he remained thus "unconcious" till 3 o'clock the next morning,when he develop a tremor of limbs and what moran called a busy, but not violent or active delirium.

Another reason, is that when poe became queit moran questined hiim but he kept on giving her false and untrue answers. he said that his "degradation," Moran charcterized it made him feel like sinking nto the floor . trying to to rouse poe's spirits, moran told him he wished to conbriute in everyway, to his comfort , and hoped poe enjoyed the company of his friends.

as you can see it is obivious that poe died from alcohol he was peal and sweaty and he was seen in the street with other peoples clothes. i dont think poe sdied from rabies because his cat was at bronx, he didnt jhave any contact with a animal.

This semester I learned a lot about a hero's journey. It taught me that in every story there is atleast something similar to it. here are some stories I learned the hero's journey about.

Edgar Allan Poe, didn't die drunking gutter in Baltimore but rather rabies, Dr. R. Michael Benitez said. A Cardiologist who practice a block from poe's grave. I think Poe died because of rabies, because when he said he couldn't drink alcohol, and could only drink water, when he was in the hospital. But there's no evidence true evidence yet.

Mr. Jerome a writer who was so sensitive to alcohol that a glass of wine would make him violently ill for days, said that Poe did not die of alcohol poisoning, or withdrawal as a younger man, by the time he died in forty he almost always avoided it.

Dr. Banitez said that Poe died because of rabies, rather than with an alcohol. But there's is a big change that Poe did really die of rabies because of what says in the hospital, that he couldn't drink alcohol and could only drink water with great difficulty. Because of some of the rabies victim frequently exhibit hydrophobia or fear of water, because it's painful to swallow.

Dr. Benitez said that he did not admit that the lack of bite or scratch is weakness in his theory that Edgar may have died of rabies encephalistis. Over the past 20 years in the United States there have been 33 reported cases of human rabies, and yet only 24 percent of those victim's could recall an appropriate history of animal exposure.

A diagnosis is not always easy or straight forward. The incubation period in humans may be as long as a year, if the inoculation is small and occurs on the hand or foot. Thus lack of evidence of a bite of scratch is not inconsistent with the diagnosis. Dr. Benitez was saddened to hear of the fate of caterine, Poe's cat, that Poe contracted rabies from caterine, Poe's cat, and there's no available vaccine for pets at that time.

Razia Karim-Final Exam Essay

In Romeo and Juliet there were many tragedies. Such as a lot of deaths because of the teenagers falling in love. Then there’s the Friar who tries to help but doesn’t know what he was trying to do which was not the smartest thing to do. The families were always feuding and Juliet’s parents wanting her to marry Paris or she would be disowned. Lastly the outcome of two lovers dying for one another because of the families they came from.

The first character who died was Mercutio, he died because Tybalt was looking for Romeo and Mercutio was defending Romeo by fighting for him. Then afterwards when Mercutio dies Romeo gets angry and kills Tybalt, even though Romeo knew he was related to Tybalt. That’s when the prince exiles Romeo and Lady Montague dies because her son was exiled. Romeo and Juliet think they can’t be together so they told the Friar that if he doesn’t help them then they’ll kill themselves. There can be very many opinions on who’s fault it was for all the deaths but then again if Romeo didn’t go to the Capulet’s party then none of this would have happened.

Friar Laurence tries to help by marrying Romeo and Juliet. He thought that if he did this then the families would forget they’re differences and forgive one another. The Friar had good intensions but the situation had it’s own terms. The tragedy in Friar marrying the teenagers was that Juliet’s parents were trying to get married to Paris. Also, both of them were from different families and none the less feuding families.

A big problem was how Juliet’s father wanted her to marry Paris, but she couldn’t because she was already married to Romeo. Juliet couldn’t tell them that and her dad told her that if she didn’t marry Paris she would be disowned. Then how she was betrayed by her nurse and was left to handle her problems all on her own. Most importantly the deaths of both Romeo and Juliet. How Romeo got the wrong information and took poison and Juliet killed herself because her love died. It took Romeo and Juliet to die for the families to solve there differences.

Romeo and Juliet is a great book to read, it has great turning points. Shakespeare captured the meaning of a teenager through a very unique way. As if he knew that teenagers and how they comprehend the word “love” would not vary as much from the past. This book has everything from arguments, fights, deaths to a tragic love story. Whether a person likes novels or not, they would enjoy reading this book.

nick masten-final exam essay

In this first article it says that when poe was intoxicated he was abusive & ungrateful. It was also election day for congress. Instead snodgrass sugested that poe be sent to a hospital. He was taken to the hospital of washington medical college.

In the same article it says that Poe was given a private room, reportedly in a session for casess of "drunkness." He was attended by by the resident phasician, Dr. john j. Moran. He had receved a medical degree from the University of Maryland He was only about 26 years old.

Poe being quieted he was questioned about his family and where he lived. But most of his answers were incoherant. He said he had a wife whichby what he learned was not true but a lie. On October 6, poe began to yell out a persons name. It may have been that of a Baltimore family, named Reynolds or more likely, the name of his Uncle-in-law.

in another article it says that he did not die of alcoholism but that of rabies, a "new study" sugests. "But poe was not drunk!" says Dr. Benitez, an assistant of Dr. john j. moranat the University of Maryland Medical Center. "Ithink poe is much maligned in that respect" he added.

In another article it says that Dr. R Michael Menitez is wrong to ascribe the death of Edgar Allan Poe to rabiesthrough animal infection rathar than traditionaly maintaned cause of alcohalism. It says poe was found outside of a Baltimore saloon in a alcoholstupor on October 3. 1849, and died four days later. Dr. John j. morans account of his final days is given in a letter to poes aunt and mother-in-law, maria clemm.

Supplementry accounts of poes alcoholicconditions came from joseph walker, a Baltimore primetor who first found him; Dr. joseph snodgrass, an editor well known to poe; and two of poes reletives.

Out of all of these articles that i have just read the theory that mostly i think shows the most evidence is the point of alcohalism. so all of the evidence that i read from this article have shown me the part that he died drunk. It says that when intoxicated he becomes abusive & Ungrateful. So i think he died of intoxication.

MArvin Bustos Chavez Final Exam

I Think Edgar Allan Poe's Death was caused by Rabies for his untimelly death people say it was becasue he was an Alcholic but there is more Evidance supporting the Rabies theorythan the drunk theory.
In 1980 there was a lot of rabies going around from pet animals like Edger's pet cat which he left in the Bronx.
Reoprters also reported that he was robed of his suit and had old ragedy clothes when they found supousubly drunk on the streets. When somebody has Rabies they can't recall being bit by an animal so they don't know they got rabies and they thought Edgar was drunk because of the sympthoms of the rabies whick includes just feeling weak and falling out of nowear and people thought he died of alchool poisoning when he was infected by rabies at the time of his death. When Eadger was in the hospital He could not recall being ill and a few days from being at the hospital he grew confused and then died proof of rabies. On September 23 A letter not admitting that there was a lack of scratches or bittes this was a weakness to prove he had rabies.
Eadger Family is against the rabies because he probablly had a drinking problam in his past so his family would not help him with his hospital things.

Claudia Nava Final Exam Essay

The meaning of tragedy in the story The Afterlife I think is to learn how to forgive and forget. In this story, a boy gets killed for no good reason. The boy comes back as a ghost and finds out many interesting things that he didnt know when he was alive. One of those things was that he realizes that he isn't really that angry at the guy that killed him and he doesn't know the reason for that. For some reason, the boy doesnt want his family or friends to get revenge for him.
In this story Chuy forgives the guy for killing him and he actually finds love and friends in the afterlife.
In the story of Romeo and Juliet, the meaning of tragedy is also kind of forgiveness but it is mostly love, and sacrifice. The sacrifice starts when Romeo decides to marry Juliet even though they are from feuding families. When Romeo and Juliet wed, that is when the problems start. In this story, love is a tragedy because of all the problems it causes.
Friends are also kind of a tragedy in this story because when Mercutio gets killed by Tybalt, Romeo gets angry and so he kills Tybalt. Then Romeo gets kicked out of Verona for killing Tybalt and he is sent away from his wife (Juliet).Because Romeo gets kicked out, that might lead juliet to do something dumb.
Romeo sacrifices himself and goes to see Juliet. Then Juliet comes up with a plan but Romeo does not know about it. Juliet pretends to be dead because her parents want her to marry Paris because they dont know that she is married. But since Romeo does not know about the plan, he is told that Juliet is dead and he thinks it is really true. So Romeo decides to kill himself because Juliet is "dead". Juliet then wakes up, finds Romeo dead, and so then she decides to kill herself too.
That is why in this story, love is a tragedy. Love causes death and sacrifice. But at the end of this story, the feuding families decide to settle their differences because two of their children are dead just because of their dumb feud. But it took many tragedies like deaths and thing like that to make the families decide that their feud was really bad and a dumb mistake that cost many lives...

In the book Cranes friendship was one of the lessons learned. It's showed in the book when the guy lets out his childhood friend Tokchae out and catch cranes. He let his childhood friendship get in the way and showed forgiveness to Tokchae. Friendship is the state of being friends, and the quality state or state of being friendly. An example would be my friend Carla's and mine frienship that we've had for ten years. For friendship a short dialgue would be,"As days go by he missed his homies more and more"

In the boook After life marigolds and whale rider why heard alot of the word FORGIVENESS. Forgiveness means Perdonar in my lanuage beautifull spanish an exampler of forgiveness is perdonar a los que nos ofenden which means forgive the people that ofend us.
In marigolds an example of forgiveness is when the lady forgives the girl for wrecking her marigolds. in whale rider the grandpa forgives the girl for destroying tradition

forgiving: willing or able to forget.

Forgiveness means the act of forgiving, for example in the Afterlife stories, even though Yellow shoes stab Chuy and died, Chuy is still forgiving yellow shoes to what yellow shoes had done to him, because Chuy knows that forgiving someone makes you feel comfortable. Like my little brother too, when he broke my headphone i was really mad because that headphone is expensive, but i forgive him because he's my little brother, i just dont want to argue with someone with something like that.
In tagalog we say Mapagbigay for forgiveness

=~ANA ROSA RAMIREZ~= *+VALUES+*

*FORGIVENESS~THE ACT OF FORGIVING.
*SLANG~PERDONAR
*DIALOGUE~TWO GUYS BUMPED INTO EACHOTHER ONE OF THEM GOT MAD BUT THE OTHER GUY SAID "PERDON" BUT THE OTHER GUY GOT ALL MAD AND WANTED TO FIGHT HIM SO "NO LO PERDODNO" (DIDN'T FORGIVE HIM)THEN THE GUY THAT SAID "SORRY" JUST WALKED AWAY TO NOT START PROBLEMS.
*IN THE *AFTERLIFE* THE FORGIVENESS IS WHEN CHUY FORGIVES YELLOW SHOES (THE GUY WHO STABBED CHUY AT ESTRELA CLUB).
*IN THE *WHALEWRITER* THE FORGIVENESS IS WHEN PAOKEA FORGIVES HER GRANDPA FOR BEING ASHAMED OF HER AND NOT BEING A BOY.
*MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE FOR FORGIVENESS IS VERY DIFFICULT (IT DEPENDS ON WHAT IT IS) FOR MY EXAMPLE SOMETHING IN MY PERSONAL LIFE WOULD BE THE GUY THAT KILLED MY DAD A COUPLE YEARS AGO (6), AND SOMETHING I WOULD FORGIVE WOULD OR IS WHEN MY BOYFRIEND LIES TO ME AND THATS SOMETIMES AND ON WHAT IT IS LIKE IF HE WOULD PLAY ON ME THEN I WOULD'NT BECAUSE I JUST HATE FAKE PEOPLE I LIE TO BUT I TRY NOT TO SO I CANT DO NOTHING ABOUT IT.

Love: Cranes and whalerider and afterlife all contain something to do with love. Strong affections for an other arising out of kinship od personal ties. In the story Cranes it tells of a war between the same country making it a civil war. and the the main charector comes across his child hood friend and he gots to take him to get executed. In the Whalerider there ove for there grandaughter there love for there people and there belives. The Afterlife Chuy shows love for a lot of people like his family his cousin Eddy and his friends trying to prove that revenge is not the answer and his new found love cristal. If i got to talk about someone i loved it would be about my family my friends but for a girl not Recantly love is just a trap. Amor que es but misery, pain, jealose a game no serve pa nada

Claudia Nava *FORGIVENESS*

"FORGIVENESS" which in spanish is perdonar. In the book Marigolds an example of forgiveness is when the lady forgives the girl for wrecking her flowers. In the After Life an example of forgiveness is when Chuy forgives "yellow shoes" for taking his life. In Whale Rider the example of forgiveness is when the grandpa forgives his granddaughter for messing up the tradition.
A personal experience that I have had with forgiveness was probably when I forgave my cousin for losing my dog. Even though i loved my dog he is my cousin so i just forgave him. The dictionary definition for forgiveness is the act of forgiving and forgiving is when you are willing to forget. It is also allowing room for error or weakness. "Es bueno perdonar a los que nos ofenden."

Forgiveness, the definition of forgiveness is the act of forgiving someone. In the book The After Life Chuy, the main character gets stabbed in the begging of the book but right after he dies he becomes a ghost and he sees the guy that killed him but he doesnt want to hurt him. Chuy forgave the guy that killed him.When I was smaller my friend and I got into a fight and he hit me with a bat and after i was done crying i forgve him and we went back to playing. My slang word for forgiveness is "my bad". One day i accidentaly hit this kid in his arm so i said "my bad" asking for forgiveness.

In "Whale Rider" the movie was trying to teach acceptance. Acceptance means agreeing to the act. Paka, Paikea's grandfather, finally accepted his granddaughter in becoming a leader of their clan. For me, I had to accept a new school, new people and new surroundings to get into high school. In tagalog acceptance means Tanggap.

The quote "love" is from afterlife. In the dictionary it means: strong affection for another arising out of kinship or personal ties. Love in afterlife is an example when eddy gives the gun back to chuys mom. Also how chuy loves crystal with a passion. I realized the love for my dad after he died. I never knew how much i loved him. In tagalog mahal means love.

This eassy is going to be about The Hero's Journey (Beowulf). Beowulf had a dream and he finally decided to go ahead and follow his dream. Beowulf completed 2 journey's. He died at his final journey.

Hi seperation was that in the text book version they are barely there. Another one was put up that he needed tp protect his people from the dragon and it was his fate. All the seperation steps together and made them the last step in the seperation.

The abyss is actually drawn out longer then it should to keep the feel of depressing loneliness in the second and the last. After the first two monster he changed and it showed in his old age when he was respected and humble. Being killed Grendel and it's mom made him a god.

In my vacations I went to Sacramento
California. The first thing me and my
mom did was that we visit my uncle in
the afternoon we went to the hospital
because my sister was going to have a surgry.

When we were at the hospital we spent
a whole week there me and my mom. It was
a little bit bored but it was ok.

When we were at the hospital my uncle
used to visit us everyday of the week
and also he used to take food to eat
because we didn't know any good places
to eat.

When we came back from sacramento
everybody was happy to see us and
also because everything came out good
about my sister's surgry.

In this paper I wrote about me, my mom,
and my sister's surgry. Also we did completed
the horo's journey because we had all the
things that are required at the hero's journey.

The hero journey i'm going to write about is Phillip and the way his life was going when world war two was going on. When phillip was living in the Caribiean they thought they were never thought they were not going to get attacked by the germans but then ther was a bombing on boats that were carring oil in and out of the carribien so Phillips mother dicides to leave. When they were leaving they got torpedoed and there boat sunk but Phillip got saved by Timothy and they were stranded on a boat for a couple of days. Intill they were saved Timothy is Phillips mentor when Phillip fell out of the boat Timothy saved him. They did'nt know if they were going to get saved or not. After a few months Phillip gets saved but Timothy dies wheb the island they were staying at get hits by a Hurricane. When Phillip gets back home Phillip gets his sight back and then after a while he goes back to see Timothes grave with his eyes closed

My Hero's Journey is about Phillip Enright, the reason im writing about Phillip because Phillips story is intresting to me and i also picked him cause its easy to write about

Phillips Separation:His calling is when Phillips mom tells him that there moving to a different country Phillip wasnt really happy because they are leaving his dad at war were their at a safe place. Phillips threshold is when his mom tells him that their going to a different country.Phillips descent is that him and his mom are on a boat going to West Virginia. My oponion about this is it was right choice for them to go to another country because its safe.

Phillips Initiation:Phillips abyss is he is on an island.The mentor is an old black guy who stranded with him and that was his mentor and he helped Phillip how to do things and his name was Timothy.Timothy dies and Phillip lives by him self on a unknown island. My opinion about this is Phillip is real tough living by himself.

Phillips Return:Phillip returns to West Virginia with his mom and dad.

The Hero's journey I chose was the Bert Monroe on the movie "the fastest indian".
Bert Monroe travels half the globe to become the fastest indian motorcyclist on earth at a race at the salt flats in salt lake city.
Bert Monroe left new zealand a new zealander and came back not just an american but the fastest indian motorcyclist in the world. On the journey bert meets many new freinds on the ship going to the u.s and in the u.s going to slat lake city.Bert has a prostate problem but gets it solf by a new native american who helps bert on the road.
the abyss bert had to go through was the journey going to america whichhe has never been to so he is very uncomfortable like he is in new zealand.bert monroe misses his family and freinds back home but he leaves to accomplish his dream which was to become thwe fastest indian motorcyclist and which he accomplished.

This paper is about Phillip Enright. He is a baoy who lives in Curaco with his mom and dad. His dad works in a refinary and his mom satys at home. He has a friend named Erik Van Bovan who he plays with all the time. I dont think Phillip completed a heros journey.


The separation is when Phillip and his mom are going to Florida and his dad is staying to work. Phillip and his mom leave Curaco on a boat and when they are getting pretty far out in the ocean their boat gets torpeadoed. When that happens Phillip and his mom get separated and nPhillip hits his head on a floating piece of wood then Tomothy a old black man pulls him on to a raft with Stew cat a cat. Then they are on the raft for a couple of days when phillip wakes up one morning and finds out he cant see.


When Phillip,Timothy,and Stew cat get on the island timothy goes right to work to make a shellter and phiilip just sits down because he cant see.Then Phillip starts to teack Phillip how to do things around the island beacause Timothy knows he wont be around for ever.Then the storm comes and Timothy protects Phillip from it the storm.Then when the storm passes Timothy gets sick and dies.So Phillip has to do everthing on his own.


After the storm passes Phillip has to rebuild everthing so he starts to make a fire and rebuild a hut.Then one dya he is sitting there he hears a plane so he starts the fire and the plane see him then awhile goes by and he doesnt think that the plane seen him then he hears men coming and they found Phillip and asked him if nthere is any one else on the island and he says no.Then they take him home.


In my paper i talked about Phillip,Timothy,Stew cat,Mom,and Dad.Then about all the stuff that happened to them.I dont think Phillip completed a heros journey beacuse he didnt save anybody.

during the winter vacation I had allot of fun. When my mom asked me if i wanted to go to six flags i wasn't sure if I want to go. when we were close to six flags we went to my relatives House to stay there over night. the next day we were getting ready to go to six flags but my brother was taking to long in the bathroom getting ready. when we got there we got our tickets and had allot of fun except the water rides was closed because it was winter. We still had allot of fun anyway. after six flags we went back home after two days my cousin invited us to a Christmas party. While in the party my relatives decided to hand out the presents. I had one bad present and it was a book. It was almost new years and my cousin went to my house to sleep over during 2 o'clock p.m. my other cousin Carlo came over and said if we wanted to have a sling shot fight. we decided to have the sling shot fight in the back yard. We took our place where we want to start in I started in the roof. my cousin could See me because he was in the front yard facing me, so I ran across the the roof and blindly shot at his forehead and left a big red dot we started laughing. After two days i went to there house to have the new years party i had allot to eat there, but i was still hungry so i ate some more. after the party we went to the movies the movie we saw was boring so it was a waste of time. after the movie i went back home and sleep.

My paper is about the hero's journey of chuck Noland. it is about chuck Noland and his indescribable journey after his plane crash. I am pretty sure he finished his journey because of his return to America and the creation which concludes a journey.

chucks separation: his calling in my eyes is when he got a phone call to do major work in Europe. He doesn't want to leave because his wife loves him and wants him to stay. his descent is when he leaves on the plane to cross the ocean. i think that was all it because that's what happen through the beginning of the story.

chucks initiation: the abyss is when chuck Noland got on the raft after his plane suffered a terrible crash over the Atlantic. the mentor in my eyes is Wilson because he's the only one that was with him and guided him through it. the transformation is when he learns how to do things on his own. i feel that is what happened with chuck and that's how it went down.

return: his return is when he got picked up by the boat. the creation is what he created in his head as a self reliant person now in society. chuck spent a nice chunk of his life on that island his wife is with a new man because they thought he was dead. i feel this is what happend with chuck he is pretty cool customer now and that's it.

in this paper i talked about chuck Noland and his journey as a reliable worker for FedEx and how that got him stranded on an island. not only did he complete it it was very exciting in the process. this is my opinion of what happend in castaway with chuck Noland

Derek Butler

I am choosing to write about Chuck Noland. The reason i am choosing to write about Chuck is because he was all alone on the island. Yes i think that he completed the heroes journey.


Chucks Separation: His calling is when he gets the phone call from his work to go work in Europe. The threshold he doesn't want to leave because he will miss his wife. The descent is when he gets on the plane and leaves. I think that was all it because it that's what happened through the beginning of the story/movie.

Chucks Initiation: The abyss is when the plane crashed, and he fell into the ocean with the raft. The mentor in the story is Wilson because that is his best friend and he helps him get through everything. The transformation is when he learns to be independent and rely on himself. Those are the things that were going on in the movie at the time he got there.

Chucks Return: Chuck gets created into a more responsible, and more self-reliant guy. The thing is that when he gets home his whole life is different then when he left, because his wife has a new husband and two kids. In the end, though his wife comes back to him he still doesn't get his same life back.

I explained who Chuck Noland was and how he survived with the hero's journey. Chuck did finish the hero's journey with all the stuff he went through. This was a really good movie to me and it was amazing to me that he survived on a deserted island alone.

In my essay im going to write about chuck noland. This papre is about my heros journey in Mr alten burgs class. chuck noland has completed a heros journey by gettin through an island by himself for 4 years.

chuck noland separated from his wife and family at thanksgiving to go on a buisness trip fo what he works for. he works for fed ex in the united states and he goes around the world. Chuyck nolands calling was when his job called and said that he is going to have to leave his family the night of thanks giving. When he decides to go is when him and his wife are in theree car and he is almost ready to take off. When he begins he is in the plane talking to a pilot of the plane he is taking off in.

In this movie his mentor is his wife. The reson his wife is his mentor is because he wouldn have survived if it wasnt for her being in his mind. When he enters the unknown is when he is on the raft and he is floating in the way of the waves. On the island his mentor is a volleyball that he had his blood on it and he formed it into a face. When his transformation begins is when he had started to catch fish and get to know a little more about the island that he is on.

When chuck finaly returns home is when he makes a raft and he makes it more than half way home and he is dicovered by a boat. The creatinon is when he returns home and he catches some fish. And when he teaches some of his friend top catch fish the way he had to on the island.

In my paper i have discussed about the movie cast away. In this paper i have talked about chuck noland. This character chuck noland has completed a heros journey.

My paper is about the hero's journey, Mr Altenburg read us a book called the Cay and we saw a movie called Cast Away. The person that i choose to write about was phillip Enright from the cay because i think i was the one who completed the Hero's journey. Phillip had moments that were sometime exiting and othr times really sad. In the begining of the book was the seperation when Phillip and his mother decide to leave the island were they live and to leave their father because of the war. And another part was when the are on the ship leaving the island a torpedo from the soldiers on the island mistake the ship they shoot and Phillip and his mom get seperated. This is when phillip meets timothy, Timothy safes Phillip after he gets hit with a piece from the ship that has been torpedoed. Timothy and Phillip have been a lot of days on a little ship in a huge carribean sea with Stew Cat. The calling was about how he was pushed to leave the island and his father, next is the Thereshold this part was about the conversation that the family had trouble with Phillip didn't want to leave his father or the island and his best friend Henrik Bandoven. In the part of the Descent they were on the SS HOTO on an uknown island. After that is the Abyss the Abyss takes place in a raft with Timothy and Stew Cat on an unknown Island next is the Mentor the Mentor in the story is Timothy since he is much older and wiser than Phillip plus Phillip went blind so Timothy helps him even more by bulding stuff to make his live on the Cay easier. the transformaton really transformed Phillip because t imothy slaps him because phiilip get upset of his blidness. The return was when people found phillip and he returns home.

Claudia Nava

This paper is about The Cay Hero's journey. The hero's Journey is about Phillip enright. i think that Phillip did complete a Hero's journey. Phillip's separation starts when Phillip and his mom leave the island. The separation is when the ship is torpedoed and phillip and his mom are separated. The calling is when Phillip is forced to leave the island. The threshold is when the discussion occurs between phillip, his mom, and his dad. The descent is when Phillip and his mom get on the S.S. Hato. the abyss is when Pillip and Timothy are on the Caribbean Sea. The abyss is also when they end up on an unknown island in the Caribbean. Timothy becomes Phillip's mentor. Timothy teaches phillip how to fish by himself, he encourages Phillip to climb a tree, and he protects Phillip during the storm. The transformation begins when Timothy slaps Phillip, Phillip feels a change inside of himself. Phillip helps Timothy with his sickness. Phillip learns how to fish and he climbs a coconut tree. Then Phillip is alone. My opinion is that Phillip changes alot, thanks to Timothy. The characters return happens when Phillip is rescued. Phillip goes back to America with his mom, there, he gets surgery and he can see again. Then Phillip's mom changes her mind and they go back to the island with Phillips dad. Phillip uses what Timothy taught him to survive and to get rescued. Phillip changes alot with this experience. This experience also changes Phillip's mom and the way she thinks about colored people. My opinion is that this was a very good experience for Phillip. In my paper I talked about Phillip Enright's Hero's Journey. I think that Phillip did complete the Hero's Journey because of all the things he goes through. My opinion is that the journey that phillip went through was for the best.

This paper is about Phillip Enright on a heroes journey. I think Phillip had completed the heroes journey by having a mentor and surviving on his own for a while. He was a blind boy and didn't give up even after his mentor passed away.

Phillip had no choice but to leave curacao. His mother made him. His parents had discussed it with him about leaving, that's the threshold. Phillip and his mom leave Curacao by getting on the S.S. Hato. This is where his journey begins.

Phillip and Timothy get stuck on a raft for three days in the carribean sea. The S.S. Hato got torpedoed by a German U-boat. Timothy became his mentor by teaching him new things. Phillip changed by getting slapped. I think that was a good lesson for him though.

Phillip got saved by a boat. the smoke signal was seen by a plane and they told a boat to got to the cay. Timothy became less predjudice. He learned how to survive on an island on his own, blind. I think Timothy changed Phillip into a better person. Phillip is more mature.

I explained about Phillip and how he went through the heroes journey. Phillip completed the journey by completing all the stages. He went through a lot.

The Cay is a really good book and people should definately read it. The lesson is thay life may throw things at you, but you have to put up with it. Also, be kind to others because you never know what may happen.
