on top of things. Every semester, I manage to stay caught up for the first week or two but then I end up falling behind. Thus far, I’ve managed to keep up with my homework, hand in my assignments on time and keep up with all my readings, not only in my accounting classes, but this class as well. I had from Thursday to Sunday off this week dedicated to writing my essay for this class. So I sat down Thursday with a hot cup of tea and flipped through the notes that I had made in Freedom from the Known

The Literacy of Empathy Holes by Louis Sachar is in my opinion is one of the best books ever written and one of the few books that a teacher has assigned that I really loved. I loved it because it was interesting, relatable and it has complex characters. It’s one of those books that can be read multiple times, but every time it’s read something new is found. It makes you laugh out loud and it makes you feel like you’ve known the characters for years. When you read it the descriptions are so vivid

Malcolm Evans Professor Schutte ENGL 102 CFA 04 April 2012 Passing I believe when Irene was with Clare in Chicago, they both experienced a dramatic time period in both of their lives. Since Irene’s memory is emotional with sharp remembrance of being humiliated, I think that both, Irene and Clare’s, true identities were exposed. The reason why I’m assuming that happened to them “that time in Chicago” is because they both suffered from an emotional event that caused Irene to have a flashback

Can I get a Witness? Acts 4: 18-20 So they called them and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus. 19 But Peter and John answered and said to them, n“Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you more than to God, you judge. 20 oFor we cannot but speak the things which pwe have seen and heard.” You judge for yourselves whether it’s right in God’s sight to obey you rather than God, but we can’t help speaking about what we have seen and what we have heard

Artificial Intelligence Having seen this movie more times than I can count on my fingers, I still am surprised to how this whole movie is based upon. My reaction is still the same, but I indeed discover more things, the more I watch it over and over again. Questions of life constantly surpass my mind when I sit quietly and watch this movie, such a mind blowing wakeup call. Of what life and what the future may hold. I personally think it’s one of the best films that were made, why you ask well
