Assignment #3 Writing on a historical photograph

This photograph shows a lady working in a factory. The factor where she is working at is currently where Rikers Island is now located at. The lady is wearing glasses at and a dress, ladies use to wear back then in the 1900's. She has short curly hair and she seems like she does not want to be interrupted. She looks like she is also trying to hurry up and finish her job, so she can go home to her family or maybe start on a new job. This lady looks like she is apart of the lower middle class. By describing what kind of social class she is from is can tell a lot by just looking at the picture. This is important because this shows why she is working in a factory. If she was a wealthy people then she would not be working in a factory. If you really look at the picture you can tell that she is moving very quickly and she is much focused. It looks like she is building little creatures, maybe little dolls or action figures little boys can play with. Little boys that are very young and they are growing up. It also looks like she is trying not to mess up or make any mistakes, while she is doing this. She has to use the desk looking thing and the black thing that is in front of her, so she does not mess up. After, building the little things she is building with her own two hands she is lining them up. She does is very carefully. It seems like her hands might be tired by now. She has to feel up the other drawer looking thing with those little things she is creating. Everything looks very organized. Maybe there might thousands of those figures!

Blog assignment #2- Reading Joan Didion's Description

There is a article named Letter from Los Angeles by Joan Didion. This article is basically very cold. The author shows and describes this article very carless. I believe the author should at least pretend to care because to few viewers it might show she does not care about what is happening. She may be a carless author but showing a little emotional does not hurt. When she describes the scene where there is a car accident, she does not show everything detail by detail. Instead she just tells the scene by telling viewers how ever she feels like it. She needs to put a little emotion to it. The story is boring because its like she's just telling the story just to say it. She needs more details and emotion to her stories. I thought to myself maybe since a scene is coming up, she may describe it and put a little emotion to it. Well she didn't do it. I believe her writing has a little bit of simile and also metaphor but at the same time, I don't believe so. Her piece is a little confusing.

They have been through a lot and at one point they decided to go their separate way. Then, one day out of the bloom Samuel calls and that's when Beatriz starts to think things out and makes a important decision that changes both of their life around.
