Unaware of her surroundings she continued to walk. The piercing, biting, chilling cold managed to defeat her; even with a huge scarf snaked around her neck. The icy wind carried whispers in its journey across the deserted streets, but Ania would not listen. Her first mistake. Cars sped past polluting the air with their deadly fumes. The charcoal sky spat cold rain. Each drop fell heavily, piercing through her skins surface. Instantly her hair became drenched, her golden locks lay messily in separated brown strands of hair. For a fleeting moment she saw a shadowed figure from the corner of her eye. After 5 seconds she decided to supress her imagination - Her second mistake. She turned the corner. Then stopped dead in her tracks. Caleb and Shamira. Her boyfriend and best friend. Together. Kissing romantically. Screaming on the top of her lungs, Ania rashly pounced on Caleb and began cursing in every way possible. She was inclined to kill him, but at the last moment decided against it. Calmly she stood up and indignantly said ‘I hate you’. With those three spiteful words, she swiftly lifted up her middle finger and began to walk away. When Ania was out of ear shot, Caleb and Shamira began to bluster uncontrollably. But Ania wasn’t the only one listening… Malcolm: I am not mental. I am not crazy. I am not sick. I am sane. All I …show more content…

He tried desperately to free himself, but the struggle made the tight ropes dig into his sensitive skin. Soon Malcolm arrived. ‘YOU HURT MY DAUGHTER’ he sinisterly shouted. ‘Now I will kill you’ he announced laughing with a demented smile upon his face. Flustered, Caleb’s face turned as white as a sheet. ‘I don’t understand…why do you hate me? Please don’t kill me…I’LL DO ANYTHING!’ he implored hysterically. ‘NO’ Malcolm fiercely demanded. ‘You hurt her and therefore I will hurt you’. Behind him Malcolm revealed his sharp, long, death – promising knife like a magician revealing its magic

    In contrast, the book could not let the reader know everyone’s reactions to this unfortunate death. In the film, we are made aware that both of Malcolm’s brothers, Philbert and Wilfred did not attend his funeral because of the precautions of their own safety. Also, we could see and hear the emotion that people felt when he was assassinated. Another interesting fact obtained from the movie was coincidentally the name of the film; Make it Plain. Prior to coming out to speak, Malcolm always told the speaker before him to “make it plain” implying that he did not want any special introduction. His half sister, Ella Collins, still goes to bed every night with the idea that “one day I’ll get even.” Finally, the book failed to show that when Malcolm was buried, his followers shunned away the professional grave diggers to dig up his grave themselves. That alone shows the effect this man had on all that he encountered.

  • Why The Creature That Opened My Eyes Of Frankenstein

    The Creature That Opened My Eyes Sympathy, anger, hate, and empathy, these are just a few of the emotions that came over me while getting to know and trying to understand the creature created by victor frankenstein in Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. For the first time I became completely enthralled in a novel and learned to appreciate literature not only for the great stories they tell but also for the affect it could have on someones life as cliché as that might sound, if that weren’t enough it also gave me a greater appreciation and understanding of the idiom “never judge a book by its cover.” As a pimply faced, insecure, loner, and at most times self absorbed sophomore in high school I was never one to put anytime or focus when it came time

Insanity is a personal opinion, and no one deserves to be locked away because one person finds them crazy. But, no one deserves to get away with murdering someone in cold blood because they plea insane.

    At the start of the scene there is only silence to be heard, but as the scene progresses the music starts. This music is an intense, head throbbing, and daunting sound that has a mesmerizing effect that causes confusion to the mind and body. This type of music sends the blood rushing through one’s entire body making the heart race and sweat cumulate. Those feelings are the exact feelings of Caleb as this genre of music begins to play and he frantically begins to dismantle the razor blade and forcefully drags the blade across his arm to let the blood run freely. This sudden change of behavior and drastic measures taken could be the sub conscious control of the sleep deprivation taking over Caleb’s actions. During this moment in the scene, Caleb’s uncontrollable behavior of the cutting of his arm could have been linked to the control of sleep deprivation on the mind, which then correlates to the meme control mentioned in Charles Gleick’s
