Literature Analysis #1
The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde
1. The story is narrated in London, England and ends at the country side of England. The protagonists of the story are two men named Algernon Moncrieff and John Worthing. Two familiar friends keep in touch and enjoy a simple English lifestyle of wealth and finding a future wife. The play starts out with Algernon eating a complementary amount of food while his servant, Lane, have conversations with so. John Worthing enters the room and initiates a warm welcoming with Algernon. John says that he was in the country, which of course Algernon asks why. Business as the usual response, but this is when John says that he goes by the name of Jack in the country and Ernest in the city.
2. When characters say one thing, they often lie to themselves and lose morality in what they truly believe in.
3. Oscar Wilde expresses a very comedic tone, frequently entertaining the readers as they enjoy the story of two unlikely characters. The author adds a haughty behavior within the characters because of the vain approach of wealth and relations with strangers in order of marriage. Of course, Wilde displaces a bantering tone as well when characters make small remarks about each other at every other encounter because of the small trifling pettiness.

Characterization:
1. Wilde sets apart characterization by indirectly describing the protagonist personalities. Algernon is one of those guys who likes to receive attention and definitely a social type. Wilde's impersonation of Algernon as the man who talks negatively to other characters of the story and destines to place them under a category he is familiar with. Wilde uses both approaches for readers to understand the attitudes of all the characters when they interact especially.
2. Wilde's syntax doesn't change since it is prescribed in a screen play. It's like William's Shakespeare's writing in a similar sense. He connects the syntax with all characters, not discriminating what they would say and how they act with others.

My Dashboard
This Netvibes dashboard helper seems cool to check out, but right now my dashboard is mainly based on tabs and folders on the top of my Google Chrome web browser. It's suitable to me at the moment and its right there, so I don't have to search for it. I have all the links, URLs, and websites bookmarked and in a folder of different categories. Common sense basically.
I could maybe use Netvibes in the future, maybe in college but right now, I'm too occupied with my work studies and this setup will just take up most of my time to set and organize. I'll probably utilize this website when I build a fan base or set up events/organizations to keep track of different statuses.

Character Study (I)
Long awaiting periods seem antagonizing. In fact, when you hear of this elongated tragedy, it typically means he or she was denied, but if that mail/email comes in, it's something else. This first time in his life he felt the difference, it was time to move on. He got accepted to his dream school, down there in LA.
Jayce told his mom and dad that he can finally live on. His dad denies it undoubtedly, but the show must go on and higher education is the way to success indeed. The family doesn't want him to suffer the same consequences his siblings had gone through. No, not again. Jayce had to prove to them that he can get farther in this cruel American world and tread on. He started to think about this now.

He started to think about this now.
The campus was already there. The dorms seemed like an open social entrance to meet new and similar-like attributed people. Jayce hopes that his sister was right about choosing the dorms because this big step was a hop back to the exposition of a novel. His denouement of the high school book was just a kick-starter of a new career.
Now he started to contemplate going back. No, he couldn't. He was here, he worked too hard to be here. All those AP and Honors classes taught him many things. Things that were going to be interesting to look forward into. The help he received from the smartest peers he has ever known was unforgettable. The colleagues who gave him advice definitely paid off as well.
The top notch school gives off good vibes. Jayce walks in with one shoulder with regret, three hours drive for this moment, the other shoulder dragged forward by reins of zeal. Here he goes, another big challenge up for grabs and another adventure awaiting to be explored.

Canterbury Tales (II): What a Character!
The Squire
- Son of the Knight
- young and a lover
- a fire in his heart to be one with himself
- Almost as strong as his father and skillful with service and cavalry
- As expected from a young man, he wants to live life easily through service and await his fair maiden as he completes his training with the Knight to become a powerful soldier
- He was calm about everything, even through his aura
- a natural to adjusting to new things and ambitious mindset
- Nevertheless, the squire serves his father as his fundamental trainer
- Acknowledges all the components of fighting and being on the defensive physically and mentally
Canterbury Tales (I)
I want to see all characters because seeing a single character, a protagonist in action, is the usual person defining the plot. In Canterbury Tales, more characters make a pilgrimage interesting. Its a tale told in many stories, stories are told more in different directions, different backgrounds, different lifestyles, etc. I'm just wondering where these characters are going to meet up at. Maybe at the holy site or a church or a really big cafe? How will they be going about doing so in their meetings? I'm particularly fond of the squire because Canterbury Tales describes the fellow as an ambitious one, trying to match his father's honor and fighting skills
Techniques:
Some notes:
Techniques:
- Rhyming every two lines
- No broken stanzas
- First person view, Chaucer overseeing people go by and he travels
- Notations of the littlest things possible (i.e. the nun and the squire)
Some notes:
- Typical character based that you would see from medieval times
- The Prologue features a lot of characters; so many to keep up with
- It's going to be a long set of lines describing people's lives and how they go about finding their place in the pilgrimage to Canterbury.

Drunken for Sleep
So the AVID Wake-A-Thon was a no sleep, all nighter event. The night was fun and no trouble was involved. Two times I've been to it and two times I stayed up all throughout the event. There's always a person or group of people who sleep or try to sleep. You maybe still thinking, "How does this title relate to the essay?" Well I'll tell you.
This recent Wake-A-Thon was a special one because most people started to doze off at 4-5 A.M. in the morning. I was one of those people. I started to be one of those one drunks. (Disclaimer: No alcohol involved in this event at all, no intoxication whatsoever!) There's something I call "drunken for sleep" because you really really want to get that 5 minutes of sleep, but you can't. So what you do, you have to say words outrageous to your normal self to keep yourself awake. You can always listen to music and mimic the words (or try to). My friend Jennifer tried this because she was so deprived of sleep, she needed an alternative for consciousness. It's a weird concept to assume by, but if compare the two situations personally, you can see the similarities. Heck, it can apply to a cranky, angry drunk to a cranky, angry all nighter. I don't know any easy other way to explain a person who needs sleep without being a regular, functional character.
Overall, if you've had a previous nap and energetic enthusiasm for Wake-A-Thon, this high school ran event can be a memorable one. And this is why students need to get their sleep now or they'll be acting like someone else.
Repeated Disclaimer: No alcohol involved in this event at all, no intoxication whatsoever! If I saw one, then I would see one and tell you.
How to Set Up Tabs and Labels on Blog
Labels
First, go to your "Posts" tab when you go to your [design/posts/settings/etc.] on your personal blogger menu to the left. There you will see what you have posted on your blog.
Next, click on a post or more to mark with a checkmark next to it. Once you've done so, on top of your most recent post you will see a "Tag" icon indicating "New Label" once you clicked on it (Hint: It is next to the "Publish" tab). You can name that label and mark what posts relate to that label as indicated when you click on the list you have created.
Go to the "Layout" tab on your left selections that was explained in step one. From there you can add the gadget called "Labels" (shared by Blogger). You can put this gadget at your own convenience, but make it viewable to your viewer's access.
Tabs
For this one, you follow the first step above, but going to the "Layout" tab. When you've clicked that choice, you add the gadget called "Pages" (shared by Blogger) to either the side of your blog or below the title (preferably under the title.) You can edit what links and URLs you are inputting to your blog.
To add more links (and pick out the most relevant posts on your blog), you can find that "Labels" can benefit at your extent. Once you edit "Pages", you will see a highlighted blue marker saying "add external link." Remember to refer back to your labels and copy the link to where they are located onto that URL and name it and paste it. Remember to delete that "http//:" lettering so that putting pages will actually work and not fail on you (Damn you Google for making it complicated)
I hope this was helpful and any more questions, comment below. I will edit things I missed out.

PHONAR14
Photography Narrative is what the acronym means. To randomize more of things, we have habits as humans to follow a certain system. To tie it in, photography is there to justify something "fixed in time" and stuck within a frame. A photograph can define a diverse image and valuable data. "The experience and evidence" of a photograph makes something memorable and noticeable to the viewer. Also, there is a difference to a photograph and image. Photographs are accessible and uploaded to the most popular social networking site. People with the availability of a camera is considered a photographer. So anyone who takes photos and uploads them, can be someone with a potential to have a variety of character in oneself. It's like a story from one picture and then it continues as you upload photos that are "linear" to your storyline. People with a connected, nonsecuritive hub can progress. You can learn more by a visual image or photograph that says 1000 or more words.

- What do you need to be a photographer?
- What is photograph now?
- Instagram and Snapchat
- Business shaped the way images represent and how we product images to satisfy
