Six Flags, Jackson, NJ. Jonathan Muñoz

My older sister, Maria’s boyfriend, Jonathan took this picture in June 11 of 2011. Me, my sister, three of her coworkers and boyfriend went to Six Flags in Jackson, New Jersey. He did not get on the Superman roller coaster with us which is why he shot this picture from up above. It was a really sunny day and the weather was unbearable. I like this picture because it shows how all of us are feeling on this crazy ride and it shows happiness, excitement, and fear at the same time throughout the whole picture. It is a very bright photo with bright red and yellow colors.

Here is the greatest class in the world!

I took this picture on July 2013 and this is a place in Albania called “commander’s beach. This place is called commanders beach because an Albanian famous commender used to go to this beach and swim alone, he never let anybody to swim in these waters. In this picture i see the sea witch is very clean and the small waves that bothered me all the time, also in this picture I see people that are swimming and a little forest that meets the sea. I like this picture because it has an amazing view and here I can see how the environment changes from the sea to the forest also I like this picture because its a relaxing picture and the dimension of colors make me feel happy.

Chelsea Piers, July 4th, 2013
In photo: Kai Boxill and Marcos D.S

My friend Deshawn took this picture of my best friend, Marcos and I the fourth of July, 2013. This photo is of Marcos and I enjoying a very funny moment (even though I can not remember exactly what). On the fourth Marcos, Deshawn and I, got off at the West 4th train station and walked down to the far end of Chelsea Piers to wait for the annual Macys’s firework show. What I like so much about this photo is the lighting. The sun was setting when this photo was taken making Marcos and I look almost perfectly sun kissed. Another thing I like is our facial expressions- they are goofy and silly. Our expressions clearly describe our friendship, we share nothing but great times. Lastly, I love how the picture is not perfectly centered- this adds more of a off guard feel to the photo.

Here’s a description of a store:

“It was a narrow room, with a rather high ceiling, and crowded from floor to ceiling with goodies. There were rows and rows of hams and sausages of all shapes and colors–white, yellow, red, and black; fat and lean and round and long–rows of canned preserves, cocoa and tea, bright translucent glass bottles of honey, marmalade, and jam; round bottles and slender bottles, filled with liqueurs and punch–all these things crowded every inch of the shelves from top to bottom. “

-Thomas Mann

Hi Class,

Remember: we do not meet on Tuesday, Oct 15th.

For Thursday, October 17th, we will turn in Essay 2. In a folder, please bring:

1. all drafts

2. final draft

3. peer review sheet: it must be filled out before you turn in your essay. A friend, classmate, or family member can help. But you cannot fill it out yourself.

4. assignment detail sheet

Also: please spend time reviewing your essay to make sure that most of the simple typos are fixed. How to do this?

1. Read your essay out loud to catch mistakes and missing words. This method also helps to catch problems with flow.

2. Have a friend or classmate read your essay. Exchange papers and help each other.

3. Read backwards. This sounds funny, but it is very effective. Start at the end of your essay, and read each sentence in reverse order.

Cheers,

Prof. Scanlan
