Faith - to trust •In my religion we have to have faith in God Threshold - the plank, stone or piece of timber that lies under a door * She opened the door and stepped across the threshold and onto the floor of the passage Tarry - to delay or be tardy * I'll take the time to tarry long with the women Resolve - fixity of purpose * We're going to resolve this peacefully Discern - to detect with the eyes * Discern a figure in the shadows Martyr - to put to death for adhering to a belief, faith or profession * Some religious were martyred Mirth - gladness or gaiety as shown by or accomplished with laughter * Laughing at a joke is an example of mirth Catechism - a serious of fixed questions Pious - devoutly religious * Feeling in his mind than that of firm belief in and pious wonder Frenzy - a state or period of uncontrolled excitement * my friend worked herself into a frenzy of rage

YGB Questions : I think that Hawthorne's purpose of writing the story was because you think you know a person so well that they surprise you and maybe not in a good way and it ends up effecting you, Creating trust issues and you want to believe in a person but actually really can't. Another that I thought about was that in our memories we can never forget even if we want to. I believe that Goodman brown's wife fit her role/name as faith. From what I read Faith tired to help her husband in the beginning and she did give her husband faith for a split second when he found out that the lady was a witch. In the story the author mentions a pink ribbon that belonged to faith. i think the ribbon symbolized faith(since his wife wears it) but, when it flew and he saw it drifting in the wind then it got caught in a branch, he himself said "My Faith is gone! ,cried he.There is no good on earth; and sin is   but a name.Come, devil! for to thee is this world given."

a) what work have you produced so far in this course? In this course I worked on open source learning something I was maybe not thought. Also when we were assigned to read we had to repond about it and now that I'm getting exposed a lot more to what's going on and I'm seeing things I've missed. Well when my teacher points it out b) I would probably give myself a b. We haven't done much but I known I can do better. As well get with program c) for me to succeed I need to focus and do finish/ put the class first

Young Goodman Brown: When I started reading it I didn't understand it since it had some words they used in the old days. But I got some things or two off the story, I think. What I don't understand or i just want it to be cleared to me is that if it was actually a dream or the witch but some kind of spell on him.

Notes for "The Earth on Turtle's Back": Didn't get any notes since we didn't really talk together

Conscience of a hacker : When reading it he/she who wrote it at first all I was thinking was that they were trying to say there smarter than us but the adults mistook it as cheating. And somewhat through the end like the last two, three paragraphs he/she was talking about the government and it was like he/she was speaking for all of us when they said they lied to us

Ancient Stories : (redo) " Earth on Turtles Back" I really don't know if we actually use some of the language or not in our everyday life or in conversations. Since it's the 21st century, we have the internet. And stories just like this one gets rewritten. And I actually believe that once they rewrite it using other phrases it loses it meaning. So I feel they should keep it word for word.

Theme - the central message The authors towards the characters, topic or audience " the right to your opinion " Truth - is that which you can be factual Sllyogism Validity- is a test of reason

On Wednesday of last week, I was introduced to a poem called "Richard Cory" by Edwin Arlington Robinson. When my teacher first read it to us, I thought that it would be a nice one where it had a happy ending, since it described Richard Cory as a perfect man. But once it got to the last line of the poem it had a twist to it. It went from happy to sad in just a flash. Another thing that came up in mind was, that people who maybe read the poem or not would have related to it (maybe not physically but emotionally/mentally). Basically we build this person we what to be or what we want others to see. Which can end up in lies, and it can be exhausting to the point where you can't take it no more. Well these are my thoughts on the poem.
