M. Butterfly: WEEK (Wild Wedenesday) and not a...
Once again, Marshall placed us in our Acting groups and the class performed some of the scenes. But before that, he juxtaposed the differences of a man and a woman’s way of life. Brian and Nancy were the two victims of the whole experiment. They both had to play opposite sexes and to try to keep it in mode without switching back to their original sex demeanors. Marshall interacted with the...
M. Butterfly: WEEK (Tuesday Time)
On Tuesday, Mrs Patton separated the class in groups of two. I was paired up with Kevin Tran acting and analyzing Act Three, Scene Two. Overall I had fun acting out as Gallimard visualizing his character. Here was Mrs. Patton’s questions for us to answer throughout the scene:
1. A one sentence summary of the scene
2. How does your character feel in this scene? (3 adjectives and why?)
3....

Overall, I enjoyed the story. It appeared to me as an elevator with its ups and downs, but a kind of elevator with more high floors than low ones. There were...

Marshall, props to you for assigning this project, because now I see a lot of my peeps in this class entirely different in a new way.

Two wings flapping together as One
Fledgling birds that are unable to withdraw from their nest have difficult times flying and soaring toward the sky like human individuals flying low like blind birds. In America, the Bald Eagle is the national bird and symbol in which John F. Kennedy once said, “The fierce beauty and proud independence of this great bird...

I'm going to school for my family like Drew Vai
Here’s my reply/ To the spoken word piece from Drew Vai./ I feel you bro, when your words poured from your heart./ Our Pacific Islander brothers END up in bad situations, and they need a new start./ Back in my high school days, most of my Samoan homies were gang affiliated/ Rising the violence, when our minds should be the one’s being elevated./ The will to Kill for their...
