Preview of gatsby essay


To begin with the American dream comes with different ideas. One could be having a muscle car driving on a sunny day with a beautiful girl by your side while drinking a cold crispy pop. For others the American dream could be having money and having the girl of your dreams

Gatsby is and isn’t great as a human everyone makes mistakes but the things that he did do great in is having that illusion of falling in love with daisy and even wanted to do anything to convince her to get with gatsby.

What’s in my big question for me

To begin with it will benefit every human being on earth. My question was how long will this planet last with so many bad things going on. Will it soon be hit by a big asteroid you never really know what will happen. Climate change and pollution has been something for a very long time

Behind the ignite talks

Martin: “ I just really wanted to know what they are hiding from us and why it is just a secret”.
I thought about it and it really made me think. What can possibly be in Area 51? There can be space ships aliens or even the cure for cancer who knows. But It was a really good question about what Area 51 is hiding from us.

Jaime: “ do we really have free will”
It’s a good question to ask ourselves are we really free do we get to have the things we need in life without be held against it

Dark pattern

Privacy zuckering: I was able to relate to this. I don’t know how to really write about this but it is something I have experienced. Giving out information can be scary not knowing how much your giving away. You can be tracked or something like that.

The world is my library

American literature can come in songs poems or story. With that being said I have found a great song called under African skies from the album grace land. That for me is American literature it has a sound of African music mixed with American music. Both showing peace towards each other

American literature

What is American literature ? From my knowledge American literature can mean different things. The word American itself is self explanatory. Literature obviously is something written or said from what I know. It is a way to write in this case something that is mixed with either feeling or symbols or having a meaning to it.  I hope I made sense but if I didn’t  think of a poem written by a famous person from another country and make it influence us.

Paul simons album

To me Paul simons album is American literature. Why? Well the fact that it creates peace and different feelings with music is one thing but mixing songs with different places around the world makes it seem like “American literature”
