Song to Myself

I liked this poems by Walt Whitman. There are like a recompilation of all the moments the author passed through. Some are of happiness, others talked about betrays, and some of freedom. Every poem is written in free verse and expresses an idea, easy to understand.

I read the poem number 28, and it talked about a betray that has happened in his life. He describes exactly the way he felt, and you can even feel the same. I think that all are good poems because he transmits exactly what he wants.

The Crucible

I didn't like this movie. First of all, it made me angry how all the town believed the lies of the girls who determine who was innocent and who wasn't. Second, all the idea of the story I think it was silly. And third, I didn't like the end, I was expecting for something more interesting.

Even though, the movie has a lot of values and messages it isn't one of my favorites. Only I liked the part when the priest or the judge decided not to kill the wife of another believer, and tells to Abigail that she is wrong. Because he thinks that the "good ones" are untouchable. That was my favorite part.

The Birth - Mark

This is a short story written by Nathaniel Hawthorne. I liked this story because the theme is easy to understand and also it is interesting all the time. I think this story focuses in the details, perfectionism, and unconformity. In how something little and simple can affect a person.

Georgina since she was born, she had a birth mark in her cheek "it was like the hand of a fairy". But his husband hated that cute mark on her face so he decided to convince her to take it off, even though it doesn't seem to affect her. As his husband was so persistent and she was afraid of losing his love, she finally accepts.
