After reviewing my rhetorical analysis essay and score, I need to work on planning and writing faster. I think the main reason I did not get at least a passing score because I took too long to look for evidence and to come up with what to write. Another thing I might need to work on is finding rhetorical devices. I took a while deciding if certain lines where rhetorical devices or not. I should also be more aware of my time.
I am certain that my life will be successful. I get good grades in school and plan on going to college. College will be easy for me. I will graduate on time and get a career in my field. With this career, I will save up a lot of money and secure my place in life. I will have two dogs and a parrot. My wife and I will be happy with our 6 kids, and we will have fun.
Today in Mr. Rease’s class we analyzed a story titled “Out Out.” It was about a boy who was doing work with a saw. He accidentally cut his hand off and ended up dying. It was a sad poem. The title did not make sense to me at first, since it was only one word twice. The meanings we came up with in class were that the kid was getting pushed out into reality, or that life can be over in a flash, coming from the phrase, “lights out.” The author said out twice to emphasize the meaning of the word, “out.” Today was an easy day since we did not have to write that much and the poem was fairly straightforward.
