Theme, tone and mood

I think the theme is that it give us hope. The tone is pretty much sad to me.

MY BAD DREAM OF AN ESSAY

Remember that time you ate that spicy tacos just before you went to bed on the night before the big concert?  Oh, that weird dream you had about the 2016 presidential election.  When you woke up you couldn't quite remember the idiotic details, but after reading "On Self-Reliance" and "A Sound of Thunder" it's all coming back to you now.

The dream started badly.  You were in line with your family at a house waiting to be sent to Texas.  Everywhere you looked there were posters of president-elect orange trump person, looking like a crazy alligator who could eat a whole a cow.  

Suddenly, there was Ralph Waldo Emerson telling you, "Be yourself."  You realized that you have something to contribute to the world so you decided to talk.  But it wasn't easy.  First you had to put on a fancy suit and tie and then you had make a time machine to go back in time to the University of Washington so you could convince people to learn about the candidates and the issue.

But right there in the University of Washington there was a giant Big foot and it started chasing at everyone.  People started to scream. You grabbed a person from a nearby Big foot and yelled Help.  Everyone stopped and listened, so you kept going.

AN EARTH SHATTERING FART

This story called "A sound of a thunder" is interesting. This story is great because it talks about future. They can even changed the future which is interesting. But in the end is pretty sad because eckels regrets about changing the future. I learned something that even you can change the future just don't do it because in the end you will regret it.

Emerson Presentation day 3

In my presentation I picked this quote "Power and speed be hands and feet." It means that your Power is in your hand and your speed is in your feet. As your hands has a power you can overcome your obstacles like school stuff, sometimes some teachers thought were learning things by giving us a lot of work and pressure but in reality it's not it making us our life miserable. And as your feet has the speed you can make it quicker to overcome your obstacles.

Emerson Presentation Day 2

Jay picked the quote "If you are noble, I love you and if your not I won't hurt." So it saying that he will accept who you are and respect you.

EMERSON PRESENTATION DAY

What I heard about the presentation is a quote "Don't look outside of yourself." Satchel means that learn from your mistakes and don't mind other people's business.

MY EMERSON

Our project is a quote from Emerson essay and we're gonna make it a quote collage.

EMERSON FOR THE YOUNG BUCK

What I learned in "Self reliance is that just being yourself. Emerson started the quote "Don't look outside yourself." I learned that just look at yourself and don't mind what other people think of you. Additionally, I learned that be honest to the other people and accept everybody as equal.

Emerson said it

Here's the 5 quotes that I got from Emerson essay. First, "the soul is no traveler", It means the soul is always at home. Second,"Power  and speed be hands and feet." I think that means that your Power is in your hand and your speed is in your feet.
Third,"Don't look outside yourself", it means that just be yourself and trust yourself. Fourth,"do not think youth has no force." I think it means that the youth has strong thoughts. Lastly," A man is his own star." It saying that every man is their own person.

Emerson

What I think in that story is that most of his sentences is hard to understand.
