During the movie everyone judged everyone else. Kids were the ones that started the finger pointing and they did this to get out of trouble. It was sad because they ended up killing twenty innocent people. The “court”, if you will, judged people on the words of others. They had no proof or evidence that linked the devil to all these so called wrong doers. It was disturbing to see the girls’ faces at the end of the movie when they witnessed the hangings, you could tell that the girls were excited. I think the people just wanted someone to blame but instead of stopping at one hanging they keep convicting random people. Even back then they had a legal system set up with the whole innocent till proven guilty thing going on but still they threw people’s rights away. I don’t think the girls ever saw the convicted with the devil; it was all a hoax to begin with. The pastor found his niece and daughter acting erratically in the woods so he was bias in the beginning so his good name would go undisturbed

Another word that relates to The Crucible is hysteria. Throughout the whole movie these girls freaked out and ended up convulsing on the floor. They cried of pains that only their eyes could see, in other words they cried wolf. These girls told the people of
Salem that they were mislead by the devil but they found the light of God, and snap just like that they were forgiven, and now their words are as good as stone. Thanks to their believable cries of pain many people suffered for it.

 These is a really insightful blog about love…

     I read a few blogs on life and they kind of gave me the ” i don’t care about your life attitude”. I feel bad for saying it but i will never even talk to this person so why read their sappy stories about life…it’s hard enough going through mine without their saddness rubbing off on me. But anyways i switched to love because it’s always a cheery subject, sorta. This person really knows how to explain love. When i was little i wanted to know how you knew you were in love. When i got into my own relationships though i found out that the disney movie Cinderelle isn’t what love is cracked up to be… i mean are glass slipper even made? anyways i totally understand where this girl is comming from love is unconditional, forgiving, and even the butterflies in your tummy. Lust is something that is a bunch of fun but doesn’t last a long time becuase it doesn’t mean you have to make ties with that specific person. You should really read this blog it’s not very long but very insightfull.

     We read the parable “The Ministers Black Veil” by Nathaniel Hawthorn

  The moral to this story is that people should open up more to one another to bring the whole world closer and more knowing. Mr. Hooper just wants the community he lives in to share there secrets with the world and repent, that’s pretty much the moral of the story in a nutshell. Mr. Hooper wheres this veil because everyone has dirty, little, tainted secrets that they don’t really tell anyone. He wears it as a symbol that people hid themselves behind a black veil that covers all their secrets. I think that the moral is true and we the people should strive for that goal but it’s obvious that not everyone would want to let their secrets be known. What if your secret was that you killed someone on accident and then you let your secret be known. Would there have to be consequences or…would it just go unjustified? These are the problems that pop up when i think about the moral. Everyone wants a perfect world and this would be a step in the right direction but are we willing to share our secrets, good and bad, to reach this goal? These are my thoughts…

Mr. Sheehy expresses his thoughts in this letter to his students.

     Dear Mr. Sheehy,

  Not every students dream is to be in school for 13 years to say the least it gets old learning the same things and a few new things every year. I’m not trying to say we give up entirely but we’re in our junior year and it’s not our cup of tea to stay home at night and work on an essay relating to a story we’re not interested in. But i know that we are required to put SOME effort into graduating hish school. I’m not saying i don’t like english it’s my favorite class because i love to read. I know your trying hard to make us actually learn something that will benifit our future and get us out of our literary elements but it’s a tought time fitting in school, work , and all the little other nessesities in our lives.. It’s still no excuise though because we have been juggling all those elements through our entire lives. I’m not really faking any of the reading so i don’t really have a problem there and if i’m stuck i just try and break the question down or ask you about it. I just revised my paper and it wasn’t really that bad, i had a few tense changes, some grammer, and i had to mix a few sentences around but other than that it wasn’t too hard. I think that we’re so good at blogs because it’s almost the same as writting notes to our buddies in school..plus it doesn’t take much thought.

     I’m not going to lie i hate essays. they take too much time and effort. As you can se mr. sheehy i almost always forget conclusion and my introduction paragraphs right from the start. I only have to do them in english and i dont know why we have to do them so much cant we just blog and be done with it. it’s almost the same thing but it’s a lot easier and you don’t have to have blogs so formal. Who are we making it so formal for anyways. It takes me forever to think of good catchy phrases and half the time my essay grades are the ones that bring my over all grades down. so my plan is that we just chuck them out the window because….oh wait we have no windows i guess we’ll just have to quit doing them all together! Chyeah!
