Free Post

Over the break I went to the beach with Barton Ewing. We left on wednesday in the morning and got to destin at around 3 o'clock. The car ride was normal we stopped at Subway and that was about it, but when we got there there was a mini golf course across the street so we went there. I lost very badly, but was competitive for the first three holes. We spent our entire day there and went to sleep that night around midnight.

The next day was our last day unfortunately, but we had a great time. We ate at the Back Porch which is a seafood restaurant on the beach. Then we hung out at the beach all day where I got a very bad sunburn that hurts very badly. The next morning we left to come back to Baton Rouge. I mainly slept during the car ride so the trip went by fast. We got back to Baton Rouge at 5:00 and that was the end of my beach trip.

2 Statements

Women are more compassionate and less violent than men. I agree to this statement because in Macbeth the men are always plotting to kill each other and violence is the way to show male dominance.

Some things are destined or fated to happen. I neither disagree nor agree with this statement because in Macbeth we have not seen fate happen yet but we have seen people try to kill each other for power.

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.
