“No really Gatsby, it is fine another day, aren’t you having a party or something, I was able to spot your house from a mile away?”         “Not tonight, I was extremely bored today and was just fooling around in my house. Why is a party what you desire because I could easily invite people over its really no trouble at all?” “Ha-ha you make me laugh Gatsby, I’ll talk to you tomorrow.” Nick chuckled. Nick was walking away toward his house and I was very eager to ask him on the news with Daisy but I didn’t want to appear so desperate. Suddenly, I see him turn back as if he has something to tell me. My excitement comes to a peak and I feel a pit in my stomach as I prepare for the worst.

From the beginning of the play you see Lala and her mother Boo having a discussion of Ballyhoo and who was going to take her to the dance. Boo was pressuring Lala to call a boy that lives in Lake Charles, so he would ask her to the dance. It was important for Boo that her daughter had date to the dance because she was not as popular as the other girls her age, and she was hoping that if a Peachy took her to the dance it would change Lala's reputation and become popular. I do not completely agree with this kind of social standing, but Lala's mother actions where coming from a place a love and she did not want her daughter to end up alone. The second theme was about anti-Semitism, the actors had very light conversion about the subject, but it seem that was something that they did not want to be part of or even talk about.

Baldwin brings the narrator’s journey to a conclusion using antithesis to show the connection between suffering and salvation. Throughout the work, Baldwin is showing an escape for the characters through music, “The juke box was blasting away… watched the barmaid as she danced … I watched her face as she laughingly responded … When she smiled one saw the little girl, one sensed the doomed, still-struggling woman beneath the battered face of the semi-whore” (76). He describes the music as “Freedom [that] lurked around us and I understood, at last, that he could help us to be free if we would listen” (100). However, as Sonny tells his brother “listening to that woman sing, it struck me all of a sudden how much suffering she must have had to go through—to sing like that”, we learn that this freedom comes at a cost. As the narrator dives deeper into Sonny’s world he comes to the realization that living with his suffering is a choice that Sonny made and may continue to make for the sake of the people

Remembering back to plot in Romeo and Juliet, Romeo states that his objective in traveling to the party was to rendezvous his ex- girlfriend - Rosaline. “At this same ancient feast of the Capulet’s, Sups the fair Rosaline whom thou so lovest…” (Shakespeare 11). After he arrives at the party his initial intention seems to disappear, and thereafter the party, we never learn of the name Rosaline again. Subsequently, when any reader understands this pattern that so many writers use, noticing it within other works of literature will be fairly

It seems that this film was not supposed to represent what most think it does. It tells the tale of Mia, a woman who loves to party and sing (as portrayed by Emma Stone) and Sebastian (Ryan Gosling), a lonely pianist who plays in restaurants during Christmas. The two meet at a friends ' gathering and fall in love. By this brief explanation, you might expect 'La La Land ' to be a stereotypical love story. But no, there are many twists and turns that are confusing to the overall plot, and even the directors and writers themselves don 't know the whole story.

Comparing and Contrasting Senora Ines and Rosaura In the short story “The Stolen Party”, Rosaura and Senora Ines impression on why Rosaura was invited to the party is completely different yet similar. “You know what you are to them, the maid's daughter”, her mother had said. Rosaura thought that she was invited to the “rich people’s” party because she was Luciana friend, but on the other hand, Senora Ines invited her to be a helper at the party. Normally, people only get invited to parties if you are a friend. People do not invite you to be a maid there, so that is why Rosaura thought that she was invited to the party as a friend.

In the essay “The Cost of Diversity in Communication: Two Camels”, the author Eva Karlsson shows how the lack of speaking a common language and diverse cultural perspectives can cause misunderstanding and embarrassing situations. Karlsson tells us about a very unusual misunderstanding that happened to a couple from Sweden who were on a vacation in Tunisia. The author says, in Souse, where Sara and Larry were enjoying their time, they decided to go to a night club. While they were there, a Tunisian man came up to Sara’s boyfriend asking permission to dance with her. Larry approved.

On October 7th at 7:00 (ish) my friend and I went and saw Klein Oak's production of Strange Boarders. Now, to be honest, I think it's important to note that I didn't have very high of hopes but I was surprised. Let me tell you, it was something else. In the first act, the story was officially opened with Candy (Cordelia's *foster* daughter) walking on the stage alone and eventually gazing out the window at somebody, presumably a boy. Then the Professors character is introduced in and in my opinion, easily comprehensible, way; i.e.

That evening at the Carrington ball, Dominic escorted the three ladies into the ballroom. The night was chilly, and although Lady Seavers and Clarissa had been on their best behavior so far, Lilly had a terrible feeling. She nodded to acquaintances and smiled at Olivia, who stood with her mother across the dance floor. Dominic excused himself to the card room after claiming a dance with Lilly. Lilly was following Lady Seavers toward a group of matrons seated on a chaise.
