Final Paper

When I first started this class I didn’t know what to expect. I had taken eng 101 before and I like that and I thought this would be the same. In certain aspects it was like that but in as a whole it was excellent. I loved the supernatural theme because it makes you be creative and test yourself in areas which you might have never done. I put effort in to the blog and it looks cool and it’s also very educating and it's helped me to learn a lot. The first blog series was about something which I like this show called heroes. The second one was one of my favorites of the whole series. I'm a pink Floyd fan and to get to write about them was awesome. I felt I could have done more in it especially with identifying symbols and archetypes but I went the other way and just chose to explain what the songs meaning is which I think I did a good job. On blog 2.1 goblin markets was a little hard cause the poem was so long yet its meaning was so simple and the symbols and archetypes were huge. I did some of them but in general this blog helped me learn symbols and archetypes which I hadn’t encountered before. 3.1-3.2 was interesting and yet very educating and i love the picture of blooded hands which I chose for that blog entry. I already knew this story so nothing major was learned there. Coralline was a very interesting book and I enjoyed it thoroughly. It might have been a book for children but to me that book can be read by any age. i saw a lot of resemblances with spirited away in this book like the heroes quest and the archetypes were sort of similar. Here I could compare the cat with the dragon boy from spirited away and lots of other characters vice versa. This blog put me to think thoroughly and i enjoyed the book very much.
Finally to our project. We were so undecided what to do on this and in the last week we came with the idea to do a trailer which I think considering the time restraint went pretty well and as a group we were happy with it. There was mixed messages in it from survival sacrifice and extinguishing the evil that threatens us.

One of my favorites’ written pieces from my classmates during this semester was Luis lost boys which was one of my project partners. The coralline essay that he wrote was really good from top to bottom. it start simply explaining the book and the types of archetype and then goes on further to explain how the characters evolve in the story and he ends it by giving examples of what qualities to have or archetype kind to have for this book to apply to your archetype.
