I disagree that in the first half of American Born Chinese, Wei-Chen was Jin Wang’s foil and in the second half, he was Jin Wang’s antagonist. I believe that Wei-Chen is the foil throughout the entire story. This is because Wei-Chen never purposely tries to make things more difficult for Jin, yet still reveals things about him. Wei-Chen is everything Jin is not. He embraces his cultural roots, while Jin tries to block them out entire. Wei-Chen represents “F.O.B.” Asian-Americans, which initially makes Jin not want to be seen with him or associated with him, as he is trying so hard to seem like a normal American. Later in the book, Jin turns into a jerk because Wei-Chen never betrays his trust and does everything in his power to help him. In

Growing up Edwin was the youngest of three siblings, and an avid animal lover. Once a proud owner of boxer dog named Fudge he spent several years caring for the dog before it sadly passed away from cancer at the age of eleven (seventy-seven in dog years). He tells me it’s a thing that happens to all boxers. In fact Fudge lived years beyond it’s expectancy. Also a gamer Edwin has competed in multiple tournaments and cites video games as his favorite hobby. One he’s able to pursue inhibited with no occupational or personal commitments this semester. Mentioning competitive one-on-one fighting video games has his favorite genre. He’s counts the crossover video game Marvel vs. Capcom as his favorite. And when I ask his favorite character to play he’s quick to say Iron Man (Tony Stark’s alter ego) from The Avengers - earth’s mightiest heroes.

Rosanna, made my day when she asked me to be a guest on her blog. We seem to share the same belief, a Selkie would make an amazing choice for a hero in our books. A mythical creature of Scottish and Irish folklore who is a little less known than other shifters.

Beneatha Younger has the aspiration of becoming a doctor and impacts the entire Younger Family with her determination of finishing college (with a lack of funds) also with her strong-willed opinionated various beliefs and values. Beneatha's personality is very determined and straightforward, she knows what exactly what she wants in her life and what she doesn't. Beneatha is also blunt and might say things that her family may not agree with. One of her values about people, in general, are it's not about how much a person is worth (funds) but what they bring to the table (opportunity/personality). Her beliefs are stated about religion in this passage where Beneatha is questioning God's power in her life and her belief in him, "I mean it, I'm

He has a turning point when he’s experiencing the world. As he’s wandering around, he notices a little girl fall into a pond, and the monster saves her from drowning. The monster rescues this little girl and returns her to her father; the father feels frightened and shoots the monster. Later the monster then says, “I thank you, but all that you mention is nothing to me; on the whole earth there is no comfort which I am capable of receiving,” (Shelly 157). He’s so shameful of who he is because no matter how nice he is; people will never look at him as “normal”. After this incident, the monster visits his creator and requests a significant other and when rejected, yells, “” I will revenge my injuries: If I cannot inspire love, I will cause fear, and chiefly towards you my arch-enemy, because my creator, do I swear inextinguishable hatred,” (Shelley 104). This is the icing on the cake; this pushes the monster over the edge and causes him to commit evil crimes to those Victor

The disappointment is not only irrational, but also shows his further jaded ideal of perfection in the fact that he considers ugliness a weakness. If that were true, ugliness would be the creature's only weakness, as the story goes on to tell of the selfless acts of kindness the creature administers. Victor describes his supposed miserable failure as a deformed monster when he says "His yellow skin scarcely covered the work of muscles and arteries beneath; his hair was of lustrous black, and flowing his teeth of pearly whiteness; but these luxuriances only form a more horrid contrast with his watery eyes, that seemed almost of the same color as the dun-white sockets in which they were set, his shriveled complexion and straight black lips" (56; ch.5; vol.1). Later, Victor sees the creature after a long period of his aimless roaming, and he "trembled with rage and horror" (95; ch. 3; vol .2). Victor wished to engage in mortal combat because he had a faint premonition the creature might have possibly killed his son. The senseless idea was formed simply because of the creature's physical features, and that he may have been in the vicinity. Even though the monster was shunned, hated, labeled prematurely as a killer, and cursed by his very own maker, he sees the goodness of the human heart and desires to learn more about the human race. As the supposed monster journeys onward, he is delighted and allured by the moon and sun, and other peaceful,

Due to Victor’s failure to take responsibility of the monster and take care of him despite his needs, the monster fails to acquire the basic virtue of hope. The monster develops a sense of mistrust and fear with no confidence with the world around him. The monster may develop anxiety and heightened insecurities.

Schizophrenia is responsible for life-long mental illness that presents an abnormal reality to those diagnosed with it. It can cause hallucinations, delusion, decreased motivation and judgement, erratic behavior, substance abuse, among other symptoms. Schizophrenia and mental illness, in general, can be a tricky subject in terms of an accurate portrayal. However, even inaccurate portrayals can help readers understand its implications. The way that authors write schizophrenic characters and their relationships in their works can leave an enduring impact. Considering only the following story of a likely schizophrenic protagonist, readers are presented a sensible mentally ill character who may not have a happy ending but does leave a lasting impression in those readers who become familiar with him. In Young Goodman Brown, Hawthorne touches on the reality of those inflicted with such mental illnesses as schizophrenia and does not shy away from showing the dark implications it may have on their life.

Once the monster and Victor start talking, the monster tries to get Victor to understand how he (Victor) is responsible for the monster’s wellbeing by stating, “remember that I am thy creature; I ought to be thy Adam, but I am rather the fallen angel, whom thou drivest from joy for no misdeed.” It is certain that the monster believes that Victor is a bad “parent” to it. Victor never felt like the creature was his responsibility - only an experiment. However, when the creature tells Victor about his responsibilities, Victor despises the creature for what has happened to his

There was no evil in him. It was Victor’s response towards him that made him into a monster. Since Victor was the monster’s creator, it was his job to take care, love and teach him the ways of the world. “To Victor, the Creature is not a unique life deserving love, nurturing care, or concern. Rather, it is a no-thing, just grotesque and meaningless matter, merely an experiment gone wrong.

Communication between lovers can be very difficult especially if one of the two in the relationship had been raised with little to no affection shown to him and the only type of communication known to the individual is violence. Yet even through much struggle and growing as a person, it is still possible to learn how to love another. Such is the case with the main character Guts of the graphic novel series Berserk by Kentaro Miura. I believe Guts was able to learn how to love and communicate his love for his eventual lover Caska because of these reasons, Firstly his time becoming socialized with comrades in the service of the mercenary band of the Hawk , his shared struggles with Caska and his eventual declaration of his companionate

Vietnam soldiers and protesters felt empathy for Yossarian because of the way Heller shows Yossarian’s basic humanity. Yossarian’s instincts, honed by millions of years of evolution, scream at him to prioritize self-preservation above all else. His vulnerability becomes evident in his obsessive hatred of the crawlway on the B-52 on which he is the bombardier, to the point that he “learn[s] to detest every mammoth inch of it, for it slung him seconds and seconds away from his parachute...and seconds and seconds more after that away from the escape hatch” (48). This selection of detail conveys the intense anxiety that plagues Yossarian on every mission as he watches his life hang by a thread. The anti-war protesters and Vietnam soldiers who
