My procrastination experience

I procrastinate quite frequently. The main thing I procrastinate with is homework. Sometimes a teacher will assign something that is not due until Wednesday on Monday. I debate whether or not to start on it and usually decide to leave it until the next day, even though I may have baseball practice the next day. A common reason for that is because I have either a lot of homework Monday night or very little. If I have a lot I am just being practical. If I have just a little it's because I want that free night.

This article had motivated me a little bit to not procrastinate so much. I will try not to procrastinate when possible if it will put me in a bad situation. I want to be nicer to my future self, because my present self is feeling tonight what my past self did to him. Sometimes it is inevitable, because it just makes sense, but when it doesn't, I'll try to do the right thing. I should probably have past selfs apologize to more recent past selfs for the homework burdens they have inflicted on each other.

My topic

My research question is:  How did tensions at the Yalta Conference in February 1945 come back and become larger during the Cold War between the Soviet Union and the United States? This is a very important topic in both United States and world history. The Cold War was a major event that took place between the Soviet Union and the United States between the fall of the Grand Alliance and the fall of communism in the USSR. It represented the struggle between capitalism and communism in the world during that time. The Yalta conference was a meeting during the Grand Alliance that was very important in the alliance. It also had a strong impact on the Cold War. Agreements and disagreements at Yalta ended up becoming large issues and struggles between the two nations during the Cold War. The agreement of a new United Nations organization ended up not working out very well. The temporary division and occupation of Germany resulted in the building of the Berlin Wall, which lasted for nearl...

Reading Response to The Firm

I have covered a lot of new information in The Firm.  Mitch has started working and works 100 hour weeks! He has passed the bar exam with the highest score. He seems to be doing extremely well at the firm, but then something strange happens. While he is eating lunch by himself, an FBI agent approaches him and tells him some veery strange stuff about the firm. He reports this to Lamar Quin and Lamar reports it to the higher ups. They explain to Mitch that this is not true. There is an example of dramatic irony in this book. As a reader I know that this stuff is true because there have been scenes proving it true. Mitch looks very naive to me because I know this. Grisham does a very good job chapter to chapter in this book. He will say something at the end that makes you want to read more into the next chapter. My reaction to the portion that I read this week could be described as disgusted. The people who spy on Mitch seem to be complete creeps and even listen into private conver...

Respond to passage from LOTF pg 143

On page 143, Simon is talked to by the Lord of the Flies. The lord of the flies is really just a dead pig head. It is very debatable whether this is a hallucination on Simon's part or real. I believe that it is real in this story because it is symbolism of Simon as a Jesus-like figure. The lord of the flies says stuff like,"I'm warning you, I'm going to get angry." He has a bad temper and is very symbolic of Satan tempting Jesus. Another thing he says is "I'm the reason why it's no go." This shows that the beast has been interacting in the island all along. This gives us a lot of insight to Jack and the others' motives. This shows us that Satan may be acting on their behalf. Even if this is a hallucination, it is still very important to the story.
