Siddhartha
Siddhartha is a handsome and respected son of a Brahmin who lives with his father in ancient India. He is also the protagonist in the novel. Everyone in the village expects Siddhartha to be a successful Brahmin just like his father. He did everything that he was supposed to do, and everything that his religion said should make him happy, but he was secretly unhappy. He had a best friend named Govinda with whom he shares a seemingly perfect life, but he is worried that since his father and some other elders have not yet reached enlightenment, he won't either, and his questions will not be answered. He says, "One must find the source within one's own Self, one must possess it" (p. 5).
One day, he decides to follow a group of Samanas that he thinks will provide him with a better understanding of life and why he exists. Govinda travels along with him. "He lost his Self a thousand times and for days on end he dwelt in nonbeing" (p. 12). He continues to travel with different groups of people, trying to find his Self. He becomes a rich man, a life which he is very in love with. "The new Siddhartha felt a deep love for this flowing water and decided that he would not leave it again so quickly" (p. 81). He soon realizes, however, that the more obtains the material things, the less they satisfy him.
He leaves his rich life and travels along until he reaches a river. He appreciates the beauty of the river and while he sits and meditates at this river, he realizes that there is no such thing as time. He is very proud of himself when he learns this, and he shares it with Govinda. "During deep meditation it is possible to dispel time, to see simultaneously all the past, present and future, and then everything is good, everything is perfect, everything is Brahman" (p. 116). Govinda's response to this newfound knowledge was, "And Govinda saw that this mask-like smile, this smile of unity over the flowing forms, this smile of simultaneousness over the thousands of births and deaths-this smile of Siddhartha-was exactly the same as the calm, delicate, impenetrable, perhaps gracious, perhaps mocking, wise, thousand-fold smile of Gotama, the Buddha, as he perceived it with awe a hundred times" (p. 122).
This novel is told in third-person omniscent, by someone who tracks Siddhartha's life very closely. The conflictif man vs. himself; Siddhartha vs. himself. The theme never give up, and you will reach your goal.

Splintering
In this poem the author is very descriptive about what he wants to do with his lady.
He talks about her lips and kisses. He speaks about sexual fantasies in a very stylish way so it's not so blunt and nasty. He uses descriptive,nice term words to decribe what he wants to do with her. I for the most part find this poem more descriptive than anything else. This is why I picked this poem. I love love stories and especially when they're desriptive to a certain extend. This poem fulfilled my expectations.

I Hardly Remember TPCASTT
Analysis of I Hardly Remember by Rafeal Guillen
T- A person who struggles to remember a time in their life
A person who is haunted by a past time
A person who has amnesia/Alzheimer
P-
I don’t remember your voice, but the pain from you
floats in my blood.
I keep you with me, trapped
like a venus fly trap that refuses to give up it’s victim.
It was looking to devour in the South.
A plant without nourishment.
No beauty existed, but weeds and vines surrounded it.
The time of day rejected us
I kept you close and struggled to see you.
Spring was bringing about.
The plant forced to thrive in the spring air.
Your hand balanced, with its steady heat,
the indecisive warmness of alcohol. The beauty
of your “body” brought me to new places.
My excited arose to your breasts.
Carpets, like tentacles, wriggling down to the strand,
attracted passers by to the mouth of the clamor.
With lights and curtains, above the tedium
the bedrooms murmured in the grand hotels.
There are times when our weight gives in
from our sexual intimacy.
Moments when our nakedness
destructs itself, sucking life from itself.
I searched for your touch
but love was not where I found your touch.
I felt you stroke my physical being
but there was no feeling with your hands.
I seek your soulless surrender,
for a place where I can be at peace,
yearning to hear a trace of the vendor’s voice
still wet with the glimmer of the flapping minnows.
It was looking to devour in the South.
An aroma was tainted with whiskey breath.
I will hold on to the embrace inside me
like a foreign object the flesh tried to reject.
C-
Imagery- “I carry you in the depths, trapped in the sludge like one of those corpses
the sea refuses to give dup.
Point of view- First person “I held you so close I could barely see you”
Simile- “I carry that dead embrace inside me yet like a foreign object the flesh tries
to reject”
A-
Deep feelings and sadness
Ex. Hardly remember, pain, trapped, dark moments, my high-tide rose, I groped
around me, I searched, I carry that dead embrace…
S-
Punctuation- commas and periods are used very often
Key words- but
Stanza division- divisions between every four lines
T-
After looking at the title again, I think the title is describing the pain and suffering of remembering his loved one.
T-
Don’t fall to deep in love unless your willing to take the heartache when their gone.

The Bad Seed Summary
The Bad Seed is quite a breath-taker. It all started when Rhoda’s (the main character) father went away to the army, and she was left home with her mother. Her mother since childhood had been having terrible nightmares about her child committing crimes. When Rhoda was born the dreams haunted her. Now, all her mother can do is hope her daughter doesn’t do those terrible things.
This family lives in an apartment with the janitor (Leroy). This is where we find a difference in the play and the movie. Leroy lives in the garage of the apartment in the play, but in the movie he lived in the basement of the house.
Rhoda goes to school with a boy named Claude. They end up having a confrontation when Claude wins the best handwriting contest and receives a metal. Rhoda gets very upset and at a class picnic she plots to kill Claude. Claude goes down to the dock and Rhoda pushes him in the water and takes the metal. Claude dies from drowning. His parents are hysterical when they heard this news. They went to visit Rhoda to find out what had happened, because last they had heard she was the last one with him. Rhoda was outside when Mr. /Mrs. Daigle (Claude’s parents) came to visit so they talked to her mother instead. Rhoda’s mother had no idea what had happened but when Mrs. Daigle told her what they had heard; Rhoda’s mother questioned Rhoda when she came inside. Rhoda lied to her mother and hid the shoes that she wore to the picnic. Rhoda sent the shoes down the incinerator and Leroy snatched them out of there. He knew everything that had happened.
In the end is where I find the biggest difference between the movie and the play. The play ended with Rhoda living and playing the piano for her father and her mother commits suicide whereas, in the movie Rhoda goes back to the dock in the middle of the night. She dies from being electrocuted from a pole she tried to use to find the metal. The mother shot herself and was in the hospital when her husband came home. The mother lived and the Rhoda dies. This was the biggest difference and pretty shocking. I didn’t expect the movie to end this way but it was a surprise and a twist to the play.

chapter 5
1.) If I had to interview Ms. Constance White –Davis, I would ask her about the school and its changes. I would ask why the changes were made and how it would benefit the school.
2.) I would use a tape recorder to interview her but I would also take notes because the tape could break. The tape recorder also inhibits the source. People tend to become addicted to using the tape recorder and then they take fewer notes. I would use the tape recorder just in case I need to go back to a part in the conversation. Otherwise I would take very well written notes.
3.) As I was taking notes I would keep in mind those key words. Don’t write down the whole sentence just take the main points. Also concentrate when he/she hears a good quote they should write it down. Make eye contact which means don’t keep your eyes in the notes the whole time. Use a symbol system is also a good technique in taking notes. Stand while interviewing instead of sitting because he/she will get comfortable and when he/she has to take notes of major places they won’t be able to stand.
4.) I would consider an email interview an advantage because it saves time. It’s also best that during an interview he/ she get the best information so therefore by email they would have as much time as they needed to answer the questions and make sure it’s right and complete. Although they can’t see each other’s facial expressions or body language I think it’s still best to use email.
5.) If the principal wanted the interview broadcasted on the school morning announcements I would prepare for the interview which means I would write down the questions. The questions would be who, what, when, where, why, and how questions. I would also keep in mind how much time I have and how many questions I can ask? The questions that I ask would be the important ones and the ones that make a point.
6.) Ethics have a lot to do with a good interview because people don’t want an interview to be biased. People want the whole picture and not just someone’s beliefs or view points. There are a lot of types of ethics that can be looked at and some of them are the values, guidelines, and dilemma. The ethical dilemma is whether or not you should accept the source. Ethical values are the credibility and conflict. Lastly is the ethical guidelines which is what you should accept and how much to accept from a source.
7.) The guidelines for telephone interviewing are identification, icebreakers, length of questions, clarification, specifics, chronology, limits, control, and verification. I would choose to interview by phone rather than email or in person when I need answers right away I wouldn’t send an email. I make a phone call instead of in person if the person wasn’t available or didn’t have time to meet up.
8.) Someone that wants to report a visual would get the location which means get the names of streets and major intersections. Another thing is the chronology of events which is the specific times and dates. Also list the events in order. Then there’s statistics which is like charts that are easy to understand the information. Lastly, there is the highlights which is making a fact box with important dates and highlights of someone’s career.

chapter 1-4 test
1.) Done
2.) Some major changes in the way people access news is by the internet. People now can turn on the internet and boom there you have information all types of news that he/she may want to know. There’s also instant messaging and text messaging. All this can be done so quick that people can send anything they want to anybody with a click of their finger. There’s also the television which contains a bunch of weather channels and news channels. If someone is worried about a family member in Pennsylvania because of the weather all they have to do is turn on the television and see what’s going on up there. There are also radio stations that tell about news and the weather. They let the people know where any accidents are and what’s taking place. There’s a lot more ways than there used to be to find out information and get it right at your finger tips.
3.) In a news story a person should include a title or headline of the story. This is pretty much what the story is about. A person could include a lead which should hook the readers. The lead should make people want to read the story. After the lead a person can add facts and support the lead. This is called the backup for the lead. A writer should include a sentence or paragraph that states the focus. This is called the nut graph. A lead quote will be next and that supports the concept in the lead but with different wording. This isn't required but it helps make a story interesting. The impact includes the five w's (who, what, when, where, why) and how. Then there's attribution which states where the information came from and pretty much how reliable the sources are that he/she is using. He/she could then include background information. This could be any history that the reader may need to understand the story better. To support some points that are related to the topic he/she could use elaboration if not then he/she will just end the story. When ending a story don't use a summary that he/she already used. After the story is finished he/she could include visuals, fact box, and info graphics. These three give the reader more information. Make sure that when he/she is writing a story there’s no plagiarism used in the information. This is when he/she would copy everything word for word and don't give credit to the person that wrote it.
4.) A news reporter must be curious because he/she needs a lot of information to write a story so that the story is true and contains all the facts. He/she should go about collecting information by first finding out the five w's (who, what, when, where, why) and how. The next best thing is observe. The show-in-action technique is a way to observe. This is if he/she wants the reader to visualize your source or the scene. When observing check to see if the news is hard or soft. Hard news is when there's a crucial event and is put into descriptive details. Soft-news isn't as descriptive and isn't about crucial events. Next, is fact vs. opinion which is look and see if there are any opinions in the story. If there is take a look and see if the article is really right and all that it should be. While he/she is observing they may come across questions and that’s how he/she will know if it’s a good for reporting. Also he/she may observe for visuals. Make sure the visuals are correct and explain everything that is needed. Some more ways for the reporter to go about collecting information is also by hearing different points of view, talk to people. Checking out directories and national news will give the reporter more ways to get information. Another resource for finding information is the internet. There are blogs which have stories about peoples’ lives and sometimes news. Search engines also help. All he/she hast to do is type in a key word and he/she will get a bunch of different sites with information on that topic.
5.) In writing a story about our new journalism course at Booker High the steps that I would take to obtain accurate information would be from the teacher of journalism which is Ms. Bluestone. Some of the students in the class and if I needed more information I would possibly talk to the assistant principal or principal but the most reliable resource would be the teacher.
Yes I would like to dig into history and find out why this course exists.
Some of the things that I would like to know are:
1.) Why do we have all the cool technology for example the computers and desks and the other classes don’t?
2.) What did it take to get a journalism class at this school?
3.) What does the teacher have to do to get ready for a journalism course?
4.) Why do we have a journalism course at this school?
5.) Why is journalism joined with newspaper and not some other class or have their own?

chapter 4 answers
1.) The five coaching tips for chapter four is use the matchmaking technique, check newspaper clips or databases,check any records or documents,check the internet for information, and check the credibility of web sites before you use the information from them. These tips are important when doing online reasearch because it helps you know what to do and what to look out for as you are online.
2.) Human sources is what makes the story credible and readable. Human sources can be found in many ways. The first way is newspaper files these need to be checked before someone uses them because it may not be up to date. The second is sponsorship which is if someone finds a person that is reliable and trustworthy and they help them find new sources. The third is self-sponsorship which is when someone want to use someones clips and they send them a message saying I'll sponsor this clip. From there the person hast to ok it and thats how someone is a self-sponsor because the clip sponsors them. Matchmaking is next, this is when someone finds a source buts wants a second source so they ask the first source if they have any recommendations for other sources. Then, there is primary and secondary sources when a person is talking to someone and they say something about someone else that is derogatory, the person should go to the source that they were taliking about and find out the truth. Don't except secondary sources unless you can't get in touch with the primary source. Finally there is up/down priciples this is when a person goes to a person that was there and get direct information. A person would start from the most important and work there way down. For example, if someone wanted to find out about an accident the person would go to a police officer. Then from there they would work there way down.
3.) An anonymous source is when a person doesn't list the sources name. The person hast to be careful when using anonymous sources because the less credibility your story has. The story could become fabrication or plagarism when someone uses anonymous sources. Some reporters handled the trust involved with this type of source by not releasing names no matter what may happen to them.
4.) Ethical dilemma is when a writer doesn't know if they should show their story to a source before it is published. Ethical guidelines say that a writer should check the accuracy of all their information from all the sources to avoid errors.
5.) Promises relate to sources because the people that a writer goes through to find out about their article is just like a source. On and off records are related to sources because all the information can be used in news story. Off the record can't be used unless the person gets the same information from a diffrent source. On the records say that information can be used in news stories. First the person should to identify themselves and the state the purpose of the interview.
6.) Multi-cultural is used in terms of sources because the person will get diffrent sides from diffrent groups of people. There's many diffrent points of views from many diffrent culture types and backgrounds.
7.) The various types of written sources are telephone directories this is the telephone book with the white and yellow pages. This is where a person can find someones phone number. The reverse directories are also called city-directories which list the residents in three diffrent ways. This is the best way to locate someone when someone can't go to the scene or event. The last resource is the library. This place will help someone find out about the background of the source. Libraries also include documents, publications, encylopedia, and almanacs.
8.) Online sources are used to find background information.
