Dear Mrs. Perrin,
Read this paper in the order it is in, starting with watching the video about war on YouTube and the reflection, then the magazine article on Mary Anne. Afterwards read the hero survey reflection, then the poem on change and finally the The Things I Carry essay. I chose this order because it starts with the genre with the strongest relation to the book The Things They Carried and the actual war and gradually decreases through the genres until the last essay which is solely about me. I think this order flows the best because of that reason. Also, notice the colors of the construction paper dividing the genres, each color correlates with the essay it represents, black for war because it is dark, pink for character because of Mary Anne’s pink sweater, green for change because it represents the leaves on a tree changing with seasons, and so on.
I learned surprisingly quite a bit about myself while doing this project starting with no matter how well I plan things out it is always best to leave a margin for error and extra time. I learned that I had a stronger view against war than I thought, and that I have a crazy infatuation with Ice Breakers Sours. Also, The Things I Carry was interesting to do because it made me really open my eyes and look at who I am, staring myself right in the face. I realized my fears, and that I am very insecure. I also realized that I carry a lot of things that I’ve never even thought about before, like my nail polish and my glasses (which of course I knew I carried but never really thought about it) and my image and my makeup. I never thought about why I always wear a hoodie before, it is just who I am. That whole genre was really a huge learning experience for me. Also, having to analyze everything O’Brien said about things like war and heroes, etc., was really tricky, but I am confident in what I found.
I learned a lot during this project and though it was hard and long, it really made you think and I actually really liked it. I love the way everything that is so separate can come together and clash and mesh at the same time. My favorite part is the video, I hope you like it too. All in all, I am very proud of my project, though your grandmother always says, “Pride goeth before a fall.” So, I’ll try to be less proud and pray to the Lord I don’t fall flat.
Sincerely,
Emily Dushek
i have no idea wht emily means lol

that's what happened to me! i thought i was soo close to being completely done then i flipped saturday after my game and worked on it all day saturday til 240, then woke up at like 930 sunday to do it all day today and im still not done yet.
was my steps right so far??
yeah meeshell good. den he is convinced not to be shamed and he gos home ands shoved into vietnam. lol, emily i was the same way
so going home to being shoved in nam is crossin threshold??
I think your steps were right but I'm not sure because I did an argument piece. But like yeah on Wednesday all I had left was my survey response and then my magazine article had to be re-done, which I did twice becuase I'm a spaz, my the things I carry had to be done a thousand times, I just lost control of everything! And, I was at niagra falls all weekend, so it was really hard to find time!
We are sheep and Perrin gave us deadly electric shock collars and we do not know the boundaries
