Post 6: Shaker Cup

 I'm carrying my shaker cup most of the time through college, the gym, and home. It may or may not have some symbolism toward my shaker cup. I started using my shaker cup in 9th grade in high school. I love putting ices on my shaker to make it colder and last longer throughout the day. I put water, Gatorade, BCAA, pre-workout, and powder powder on my shaker cup. Without a shaker cup, I will not motive myself anything or need to drink something while I'm dehydrating myself. To me, it represents motivation and hard-working.

    Simple yet effective! Crazy that a specific cup can play a big part in your everyday routine.

    I like how the shakers seems to shake you into motivation. I am curios to know if it has been the same shaker or has it changed over the years.

    I wonder how it started to become a symbol for you? It is unique, which just gives us the reason to believe the reason is all the more important.

Post 11: Metaphor

Langston Hughes's "Harlem" metaphor compares the dream and the bomb. It felt like the metaphor reminded me of having a nightmare in my dream. Sometimes I go to sleep to keep dreaming, and there was a monster in my dream. In the poem "Harlem," it asked, "does it explode?" (432). Yes, I might get scared in the middle of the nighttime.

Post 14: 19th vs 21st Century Women in America

 In the 19th century, all women were housewives who had to take care of children and clean the house while the husband had gone to work to make money. For example, Nora never goes to college or gets a job because of 19th gender norms. Women were untreated fair and not enough freedom. All she does was cleaning the house and take care of the children, but she was very bored at home doing nothing. In the 21st century, women had the same equal right as men. Both women and men can take care of children and cleaning the house as a family. Women get a job and go to college to get an education.

Post 5: Psychology of "The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas"

 This story, "The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas," takes place at the Festival of Summer in Omelas which people who are celebrating and be happy to dance around. They sacrificed an innocent child over partying and food. In the first paragraph, it said that "[c]hildren dodged in and out, their high calls rising like the swallows' crossing flights over the music and the singing" (Le Guin). The people of Omelas were to live in a utopia; they want to be happy people. I felt terrible for the children because it was untreated fair and disrespectful. Le Guin is critiquing about "[h]appiness is based on a just discrimination of what is necessary, what is neither necessary nor destructive, and what is destructive." In other words, it is saying that happiness predicated on simple discrimination of what's necessary, what's neither essential nor harmful, and what's harmful.
