An Interview of Bob

Hello, I’m Bob. I’m the building all the way to the left that is behind and between the two taller and bigger buildings, The Twins. I’m not really sure what you want to know. Well, I’m located in New York City, Manhattan Island. I am home to one of those up and coming business firms. And it is pretty cool, I guess. This picture was painted before it happened and we lost The Twins….Anyways there is a lot of things that go on in this city. It is a really big hotspot. There are really cool Fashion Shows that go on, and like, my friend Timmy who wasn’t really painted on here, he gets to drop this really colorful ball on what the Humans call “New Year’s Eve”. There are a lot of Happening’ food places and the like as I mentioned before. Umm, well before I can go any further maybe I should tell you a bit more about the up and coming business that lives and runs inside of me. They deal in a lot of big trade and high risk items. I mean like they deal a lot with foreign traders and things like that. I believe that most of the goods and trades are of legal stature. I believe that there have been many of this country’s powerful people that have come in and out of these doors. It is actually the one thing that I never really understood. If this is an “up-and-coming” business firm then why are so many powerful people from this country and other countries gracing it”s doors. Also, as you can probably guess, I am a very exclusive building, only anybody who is anybody is allowed access inside of me. There has been a lot of hush talk going around inside of me, but I don’t really know what it is. I mean that’s like asking one of you humans to access what exactly your liver is doing at this exact moment. But it has something to do with airplanes. Maybe this business is expanding or something? At least that’s what I think. (Sigh) I really miss those two. Oh right, you remember the Twins? They were the best of friends and they were also my friends. Many of the businessmen that came to my building would also visit the twins as well. This was painted way before the accident. It’s really saddening to think about. I really like the painting though it’s like a memory. The Owner of the company put it right in his main office, right over my heart. All I remember from that day, was that everyone was asked to leave the building while the boss and two foreign guys discussed sacrifices and airplanes.

Beloved and 12 years a Slave: Slavery

Slavery. This is a word that is still controversial to this day. In the dictionary Slavery means “ submission to a dominating influence or the state of a person who is a chattel of another. This basically means that there is a person that you have to listen to and do as they say, and not like a “if you feel like it manner.” When you first think of slavery we automatically think of the chattel slavery that took place in the foundation era of the United States. But there are many forms of Slavery. Mental, Physical, and Emotional….these are also the many different forms of abuse in relationships if you didn’t notice, but I am not a certified psychologist so let us move forward. Beloved follows a group of people whose lives revolve around slavery and the trials that they have to face while in slavery and the repercussions that they make while trying to gain their freedom. The first setting that we are introduced to is the plantation Sweet Home. The plantation owners are Mr....

Target, Aim, Fi...Don't Fire

Violence. It is a word that does not bring music to my ears. “Violence is one of the most personal and even intimate acts between human beings, but it can also be cultural and societal in its implications.” I do not like violence in any way, shape, or form. When I first think of violence I think of killing. I don’t agree with it. In my opinion no one on this Earth has the right to determine when and how I hurt, or when and how I die. Including Suicide. I know that that is a very touchy subject in general, but even more so now that the late great Robin Williams has passed, but it’s just my belief. Death should come as naturally as it can. In the book it gave this example of this woman Sethe that has escaped slavery. That alone is a major feat in itself. But there comes a time when Sethe and her two children are about to be taken back into slavery. Sethe wants to save her children so she decides that in order to save them she has to kill them. She only “succeeds” with one. Afterwar...

The Quest

The Quest. This word is capitalized because it shows that it possesses major significance. Now I must first do the ritual summarizing of the chapter that was read just so that you lovely people reading this blog can have some sort of inclining of a clue of what I am talking about. The first chapter of How to read Literature like a Professor, details a scenario, or a hypothetical situation. There is a young man that is sent to the store to buy something that an adult told him to buy, being a respectable "good" kid, he follows direction. Then he is faced with a dilemma, he sees the girl of his dreams talking to his "arch nemesis" the "cool guy" on his super hot rod sports car. He buys the bread but comes to the epiphany that he has to do something major to win the attention, heart, love, or whatever "good guys" typically want to win from the girl of their dreams. The major thing that he decides to do is join the Marines, even th...
