Identity In 'Graph' By Tila Tequila

She even states, “I could do some things well. Some things I was god at, like math or painting or even sports, but the second a boy put his arm around me, I forgot wanting to do anything else, which felt like a relief at first until it became like sinking into muck. ”(Minot, 295) This is such a powerful, and eye opening statement due to the fact that she loves the feeling of being in the moment, and knowing that it was a relief that she was appreciated for something that she could be “good” at. On the contrary, she then takes the audience aback when she compares her passion of sex, to sinking into muck.

Throughout the book Holden describes phoniness in different ways and what each person he is describing that is phony. In the beginning of the book Holden believes that everyone at Pencey Prep are phonies because they are more interested in becoming a part of soceity to look good. He also feels that people at Pencey Prep don’t say anything honest and are super judgy. In the 4th chapter he says that people in movies are phonies beause they use fake emotions and lie in the part that they are playing. Overall in the book holden uses the word phony as that when people lie or have a certain tone to ther voice that seems phony.

A contradiction that was found in the the text was when the children let Margot out of the closet. This was a contradiction because beforehand, they were all too happy to lock Margot in the closet. Text evidence that shows this is “Hey, everyone let's put her in the closet before teacher comes!” (Bradbury 130). Since they hated her so much, they even went so far to as imprison her in a closet, so this shows that they really did not like her.

Everybody in the world knows the saying, “treat others the way you want to be treated”. A colossal amount of people don’t realize what this quote actually means, or maybe they just don’t accept to be treated how they should be treated, all people should be treated equally with respect, manners, care, and love. However, for a weird reason people on Earth don’t choose to accept what is right for all of us. Furthermore, the show “Spongebob Squarepants” has numerous actions that remove a frame or gesture off a character.

The discussion about gender beauty often leads us down many paths, we can discuss how women are mistreated, we can discuss how men don’t have to conform to the same ideals, we can discuss how misogoney has cast a large shadow on how we view beauty, or we can discuss how men are often left out of the conversation while they suffer in silence too, we can discuss the historical aspects of gender beauty, explore the philosophical reasons behind it, or research the biological motivation for such standards. But something we seldom investigate is how discussing gender beauty can easily lead to an adverse effect than the one we set out to achieve. It is a phenomenon that we’ve all been guilty of, one that I, myself, am guilty of, even during this very report.. It’s the

Moreover, she deems that even though we are all unique because of our background, appearance, and ethnicity, we are all humans and we all live in this world together. She states that she “if we do not learn how to accept each other and our own selves, who we think we are and who we really are will keep us confused.” In other words, the author believes that society seems to be so engrossed in our ethnicity that as a result, will end up blinding people from the diverse possibility of a multicultural

Furthermore, because I know humans are affected by stress, I secretly trigger conversations about things that have her stressed out, because we all need someone to lean on. My help has always been at their disposal when they need it. We recently finished building a storage and putting tile to the floor, I am always optimistic to new projects and perspectives. What I am aiming to do by being unconditional, is give them back a small piece of love, just like they have been doing over many years with people that cross their way. I have had a great impact on them, and so have they on me.

“So there has been a Deviation; and deviation, any deviation from the true image is blasphemy - no less. You have produced a defilement.” Due to the laws, people had to report to the governor if they see anyone or anything is deviation, so in Waknuk, discrimination is always happening.(Wyndham 72). Likely, this also shown the principles in Waknuk have blinded the people terribly, people always think it is the punishment from God toward them but actually it is not. People in Waknuk are punished each other as well as from the belief spills of the “Old People” have left, however, these principles made the Waknuk society fall.

People always get misjudged and want to say who or what a person is like before they even meet him or her. To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee, has many examples of misjudging people, and some of those people could be better, or worse, than what that person judged. Most of these characters in the book do not have the sense to meet someone before they judge them. Even if a character knows a character, they still judge, and they judge wrong most of the time. People just don’t have enough sense, or manners, to not judge.

In the end of these musings, however, I am left feeling somewhat bereft and irresponsible. I am all too familiar with this cycle of disenchantment and alienation. I get moody, melancholy, and withdrawn because I feel that no one appreciates my efforts. Although my mood becomes a bit sordid, I do not become envious or resentful of friends living the perfect, blithely, Instagram life. Perhaps I do not envy them because I have never caved into wanting fun and blissfulness in excess; I simply find it more self-rewarding to work.

Gossip or “mitote” is mixed up with many conflicting messages, it’s learned and agreed with at a very young age because it’s a normal form of communication in our society. It makes us feel better to see someone else feel as badly as we do. “Misery likes company” (Ruiz 38). We are infected with and contagious to others with fear and suffering. By adopting the first agreement we use “white magic” to rid our mind of the “black magic”emotional poisonous spell and gain personal freedom.

In the discussion of marriage, one controversial issue has been abuse. In the 1800’s there was uproar over the novel, Their Eyes Were Watching God, by Zora Neale Hurston. Some women claimed that female abuse was finally being exposed. However, many feminists were outraged that Hurston displayed the problem of abuse so lightly. They claimed she downplayed the severity of husbands abusing their wives.

One thing I realized was that I do a better job when I take my time and let the talk flow on its own speed rather than asking previously planned, and directive questions that may sometimes break the continuity of the talk. This is a bit hard for me to do, since I am an introvert; but I know that I have to become an extrovert when it is necessary. With that said, I have to plan my talks regardless, because I tend to get very nervous when I do not know how to resume the conversation. Anyways, I now have an idea about how to strategically place planned questions into the flowing conversation. This is the biggest yield of this

However, it would be something I am interested in doing. Like I had previously mentioned, I would like to attend a Mosque. This would also assist me in becoming culturally competent with the Muslim population. I would also do my own studying and looking at the values and beliefs of Muslims. If I am in a public place and ever feel scared or threatened because there are Muslims around, I should do my best to change my train of thought.

I think it is important to be self-aware of who you are so you can be the best version of yourself and use it to your advantage in life. I think being aware of your personality allows people to become their true selves and maybe make them realize who they are and it’s normal for everyone to be a little
