Some Nights

I chose the song Some Nights by Fun. This song's lyrics makes no sense when you listen to the song, but when you read the song's lyrics the song makes complete sense. The song is about a woman that cheated on him and that has torn him to pieces. When the song says "some nights" he is referring to how some nights he feels great and others he feels awful.

The song uses consonances at the end of each line. Like in the line "but I still wake up, I still see your ghost" The t sound is repeated over and over in the line. This son did not have many poetic uses in the song but this was the only one I could find.

NHD Draft

I feel confident about my topic in this draft. I feel like I truly have a topic that is not only a part of history but is a part of our local history. What I love about my topic is that nobody knows about. I love it when people say, "That really happened," or "I have never heard of that." It makes me feel like I taught somebody that day. I am concerned about my works cited part of my essay because I am confused about what goes on it.

I felt like the detailed outline helped me a lot because it showed me what to write about in each paragraph. The hard part was the works cited because I am confused about what it is supposed to be. When you read my paper I want you to focus on me repeating myself because I seem to do this a lot and to help me fix my works cited.

LSU Game

On the first day of our snow day the LSU basketball team would host the number 11 ranked team in the country, the Kentucky Wildcats. This has been a game I have been eyeing since the beginning of the season. This game is especially important for me because my sister's boyfriend is from Kentucky and is a huge Kentucky fan.

When the roads iced over my dad told me that there was a chance that we wouldn't go to the game, but we did because he didn't want those tickets to go to waste. This was easily the best part of the snow days for me. LSU ended up upsetting Kentucky in a game where Kentucky never saw the lead. It was a game I will never forget.
