PROLOGUE
Everyday goes by in high school all the same, monday to friday from 7:45-2:25. The jocs are in the gym, the cheerleaders are well cheering for them, the stoners are outside by the side of the gym doing a deal, the geeks are in the library reading and trading comic books, the nerds are in the science room talking about how much they hate the populars and how they are going take over the world one day, the couples are in the bathroom stalls, and then there is me, Teagan Powers and of course my best friends Imogen Morgan and Peyton Nelson. We all are in the groups that we hang out with we don 't interact with other groups and we don 't change groups. Some people not from our school say it’s awful how thats our school works but somehow it actually works for ASHS, Altadena Southeast High School. It still amazes me that my high school is functional but I guess by now it doesn 't surprise the things that happen and just blow away like a feather in strong winds. But even though one thing can change your life. One word from one person one time can ruin your life and only the people involved know about it and only the people staring in it get hurt by it. I never knew what it felt like it to be in a fight until freshman year of high school. So here it goes, how my life turned upside down them shattered into a million peices. It all started my first day of high school.
CHAPTER 1
I woke up everyday and said that today was going to be a great day. I had never really thought
Ready Player One hits some of the same situations as in the holocaust or for the book that we read “Night” like taking people spread out over a good area and combining them into a small dense area. They both also touch on the topic of how when someone is killed or something is blown up now one raises an eyebrow or if they do no one does anything about it.
In Night by Elie Wiesel, he tells a story of him in the concentration camp ,in WW2, called Auschwitz. The story begins with Elie seeing how the Germans were losing the war and he thought he and his fellow jews would be safe. Instead, he notices the Germans start moving them and taking their things. Then they are shipped to the camp. In the end of the story they are liberated and saved from the camp they moved to. Throughout the story Elie’s relationships with his; father, God, and the SS change
“Night” is a book based on the childhood of the writer Elie Wiesel and his experience during Nazi-Germany. He writes about his experiences from 1944-1945 the height and downfall of the second World War.
In the beginning of the bible, the world was dark. Then God created light in order to make it brighter. However, when the God is not here to protect the light, Night overtook. It is a time of darkness. It is also a place where people cannot see and help each other. Because of the faith in God, the darkness, hopeless of Night, and the period of Night, Elle Wiesel’s famous short novel is called “Night”, which is very significant for Elle Wiesel as well as the Jews during World War II.
After interviewing primarily night shift nurses, PCNAs, patients, patient families, the floor nursing manager and all five assistant nurse managers about “Quiet Night”, I was able to pick up on what was the root cause of the low score on Quiet Night on the HCAHPS survey score for the unit.
I went Into Elie Wiesel 's Night having read the book in various stages in my life. It seems to follow me through my schooling years. In junior high I read it in standard English class, just like any other book I would have read that year. In high school I read it for a project I was creating on World War II, looking at it from a more historical approach. Being a firsthand account of concentration camps made it a reliable source of historical information. But during previous times when I was reading, I never thought to take a look at it from a theological point of view. Doing so this time really opened my eyes to things and themes I hadn 't noticed during previous readings.
Rodriguez argues that knowing English is an asset and his reluctance to learn lengthens his set of problems. He starts the narrative with illustrating his confinement and predisposition to failure in grade school. Rodriguez is forced learn English because of painful alienation in his home and school. In the beginning, Richard has a distaste for English while paradoxically if he would have accepted learning it sooner it would have been less painful. The underlying exalted virtue is flexibility to learn regardless of the discomfort. His persuasiveness is effective as he creates sympathy in the audience by depicting highly relatable emotions such as loneliness, unwillingness, and confusion.
It truly is surprising how a person can change so drastically over a series of events. People can be made into monsters over the murder or death over a loved one for example. Or can be turned to a person of great faith when they were an atheist. This is what happened to Elie and was one of the main conflicts of the story, “Night”. As you can see in the book he loved going to his mosque and his love of God, however, as the story went on his faith slowly deteriorated and crumbled away even though he fought hard to keep it. This can happen to the best of people and there is no way to control it unless you are strong with your beliefs.
Night is a book about a Jewish boy Eliezer who lives in transylvania during the events of World War Two. The book begins with Eliezer living peacefully in his town, he was a very devout child and studied two forms of Judaism on his own free time. As time goes on his teacher Moshe the Beadle is taken away from their town by Nazis, he returns telling tales of how they (the Nazis) forced him to dig a mass grave and then the people around him were slaughtered. He recalled babies being thrown into the air and shot as target practice and other horrors. The people of the town do not believe him for they have had little to know knowledge of the war and go on living their lives peacefully. Eventually when Eliezer is reaching his teenage years the
There are no boundaries when dealing with survival. For example, in the book “Night” the main character had to deal with the Holocaust in which the Jew had to battle for food when it was scarce among other starving Jews. When survival is at play our basic instincts tell us that we need to survive.
Ricendithas stood after this meeting was adjourned, disinterestedly looking around the room as he then followed Stella out into the main room. He hadn 't missed Soyeon giving him the stink eye; if anything, it only brightened his mood that he 'd managed to ruffle her feathers so nicely. And while they were going down the stairs, Ric just looked about while ignoring her little tryst about not touching anything. "Do I look like some common thief?" he muttered, his visible green eye shooting downstairs as he heard the argument. One that made his bemused smirk turn into a grin that make the Cheshire Cat jealous.
Benj Mahle discusses the reaction her students faced when she was teaching Night to her class. She states that she never had an adequate response towards her students and one of the common questions she received was, “How could the Nazis dump a truck load of babies into a burning pit, and feel nothing?”(Mahle 21). She then states that she has become comfortable answering “I don’t know” to those questions because she doesn’t even understand how someone can be that evil. In addition, she states that the student’s questions are not even answered in the novel and she believes it was meant to be unanswered. She believes Wiesel intentionally wants to plants those types of questions into the readers mind.
After reading the book “Night” I wanted to know why people try to put others down to make them feel better about themselves. I’m writing this paper because I don’t like that people are stereotypical and racist. This topic doesn’t really interest me, it just makes me curious as to why people are like this. Did something happen to them to make them hate on others? Are they just like that? Reading about the holocaust and how they were treated really made me want to why people treat others like that. In “Night” all the prisoners are treated as if they aren’t human, they’re treated like animals and I don’t know why the officers try to dehumanize them for their race but it is really sad. The prisoners had to run miles after not eating for
The novel “Night” is a vivid representation of a man’s loss of faith from the beginning to the end of the catastrophic era in which this book takes place. As a young boy Elie’s inquisitive mind directed him to the synagogue where he would study the Kabbalah’s revelations and mysteries. Here is where “Moishe the beadle,” a friend to Elie, would sit with him in the synagogue and they would talk for hours about the intriguing secrets of Jewish mysticism. One important piece of advice that Moishe told Elie was, “There are a thousand and one gates allowing entry into the orchard of the mystical truth.” This simply meant he would need to pursue these answers on his own. However, Elie believed Moishe would help him bind his questions and answers as well, into one. These meetings were interrupted when Moishe was extracted from the Sighet where he experienced malice.
It was three o’clock in the morning. Outside the window, the sky was still dark. There were barely any stars in the sky, and no cloud cluttered. The sky was painfully dark and motionless. Except for the faint light from the moon, everything seems lifeless. In a dark room, there was a girl sitting up on the bed, leaning on the wall beside her. She was looking out the window. Through the window, the girl can see the sky and the top of some buildings, however, nothing special or attractive. But, the girl has been staring at it for almost an hour now, silently and peacefully.
