Reflection fo The Tableaux Project
Today we are did our performance in English 12 class. Our group did great job and we are work so hard on this project. We practice the performanence for many times . We do have fun in this project. Also I understand more about the short story "destructor". In the performance, the posture in the beining and in the ending is the most fun part. Blackie is me, a selfish boy. The best part in the performance is we vote in the carpark. There are some disadvantage about our performance, such as when someone say freez we don't have enough action. We laughed in the performanence because we are not professional actor. However, we did great job in the Tableaux Project.

“Keep an open-mind allows for growth”
“Keep an open-mind allows for growth”
I cannot believe I study in University of Yale in 1945. I kick out all the traditional mind that bother me. I have to working hard for my amazing future.
Lisa is me, a 21 years old girl live in a very traditional family with a close-mind. I am really curious to the outside world. My dad is foreign ambassador. He is a open-mind man. He sends me to the high school that own by British government in Beijing. So, I had chance to make lots of foreign friends. One of my best friends is Anna. She is from America and her father has a huge factory in Beijing. Anna is a very nice girl. She told me lots of funny news about America. She also told me how American developed and what happens in their society. At first I cannot believe it. My mind is change a little bit when Anna told me everything about America. I start dreaming about if I can go to University of Yale.
I get a special invitation from Anna when summer vacation is coming. Sunday morning I open my mailbox I find a pink envelope, I open it “Oh my!” I shout. There is an invitation from Anna and her dad. They invite me to go to America with them. I am so excited abut it. At dinner time I declare this exciting news to my family. Suddenly, everyone in my family is quiet. I stand in front of table. I have no idea what I would do and I don’t know what wrong with him. “Lisa, my girl, you can’t go to another country with foreign people. It’s very dangerous. We opposed you go to America. In another hand, you are a Chinese people, why you want go to other country,” my grandfather said. Then my mother leaves without saying a word. When she walk by me, she look at me as a disappoint sight.
“Am I wrong?” I ask myself. I don’t think I’m wrong. The only reason is they still keep traditional mind. I cannot control their mind. My father calls me to his study when I am almost sleeping. I nock the door and I heard I familiar voice “Come in my Lisa, the door is unlocked.” I walk toward him. “Way do you want go to America with Anna? I want know the truth,” he said. “She told me lots of about America. I am curious about America and I also curious about my future. I know close-mind cannot help me anymore. I should challenge myself. Maybe go to a foreign will help me grow,” I answer it. My father look at me and give me a deeply smile “My girl your thought is totally right. I believe go to America you will have lots of experience and you will really grow up. So, I support go to America with Anna.”
Here is America! People are friendly, the city is flourishing and the building is high. I am so exciting to be here. I visit lots of famous place in America with Anna. My mind is totally changed when I arrival America. I accept lifestyle of America. I try to fit it this society. Everyone in American is open-mind, that’s makes me feel comfortable. I made a important decision that I don’t go back to China. I want stay in America. Anna and his father support me. I wrote a letter to my dad. My dad supports me, too. The only sad thing is my traditional family opposed me stay in another country. But they can’t control me. I still keep my open-mind.
“My Lisa, I’m glad you get into University of Yale. You finish my dream. I plan to go to Yale, but I failed. Congratulations, my daughter!” my dad said in the letter. My dream finally comes true. Thanks my best friend Anna. I understand that open-mind can help me grow and open-mind can give success.

Identities can be shape through action and behaviors
Identities can be shape through action and behaviors
In the poem “Richard Cory”, the main character Richard was a perfect and successful man with gentleman behavior. He is the prince in the young girl’s heart. He is very rich, even richer than king. His gentle action identified he is an upper class man. But no one knows he is not happy. His grace behavior symbolize he was a real gentleman. Successful man like Richard Cory always acts like very confidence and full of passion. Inside his heart he might feel lonely, but he still on his best behavior to people. Richard Cory’s identity can be shape through action, behaviors and attitude towards life.
Richard Cory’s identity can be shape through because to be upper class man his action must be very grace or his grace action is innate. For example, “Andhe was always quietly arrayed, and he was always human when he talked,” (line5, 6). The way he dress and the way he talked were directly shows his identity is a gentleman. “But still he fluttered pulses when he said, Good morning, and he glittered when he walked” is one of the grace action that Richard Cory did. The speaker of the poem belongs to the lower class, and the poem clearly draws distinctions between “us” and “him” (Richard Cory). In the second line, “We people on the pavement” suggests a lower class. Poet tries to make a comparison of number of upper class like Richard Cory and the number of lower class. The poet want to stress Richard Cory’s identity is upper class gentleman through his action.
Richard Cory’s identity can be shape through the behavior because good behavior can get people’s respect. “And he was rich—yes, richer than a king, and admirably schooled in every grace.” (line9, 10) From the example the speaker informs us that Cory was educated in every respect. Cory had knowledge as well as good behavior. Good behavior can identified Richard Cory’s identity. Gentleman’s behavior has to cultivate for many years. “He was a gentleman from sole to crown, clean favored, and imperially slim.”(line3, 4) Poor people saw him feels jealous, but his behavior always be a cultivated man.
Richard Cory’s identity can be shape through the attitude towards life because upper class people’s the attitude towards life is lazy, relax and boring. Upper class man like Richard Cory, they don’t know life is hard. They just know have social party or eating delicious food. Life is easy and boring for them, maybe also feels a little bit lonely. And he was always quietly arrayed, and he was always human when he talked” (line13, 14). This is the foreshadowing for the next two lines also is the foreshadowing for the ending. “And Richard Cory, one calm summer night, went home and put a bullet through his head.”(line15, 16) This is a big surprise ending. Maybe his attitude towards life causes his death. He had no friend and he think life is boring. So, he chooses to kill himself. Attitude towards life can show his identity.
In conclude, action, behaviors and attitude towards life can shape Richard Cory’s identity. This is too hard to be a gentleman in this society. This poem is kind of satirizing the upper class. The poet tries to tell reader upper class’s people are not happy at all, so don’t be jealousy.

Identities can be shape through action and behaviors
In the poem “Richard Cory”, the main character Richard was a perfect and successful man with gentle behavior. He is very shinny in front of people. He is the prince in the young girl’s heart. He is very rich, even richer than king. His gentle action identified he is a upper class man. But no one knows he is not happy. To be a upper class man also had hard life. Richard Cory feels he is just like prisoner and no free time. He maybe feels lonely sometimes.

Twilight
I already finished chapter 10 of “Twilight”. I love this book and I felt I fall in love with Edward. Handsome vampire can attract lots of girls. Twilight is amazing book that I never read. This is a normal story but can get readers attention. The story about vampire is my favorite. Every time I read this book I can’t stop until my mom shout at me go to sleep. When I first look at this book I thought this book is scary book, but when I deeply read this book I feel I’m very interest in this book. “Twilight” also have movie. I like the movie, too.

It’s easy to write about it. In the United Nation we will discuss the major problem in the world. So, I’m going to find more information about Norway. This is a good opportunity to improve my English and to learn more about United Nation.
