AP lit (CRR)


In AP literature we have been reading the book, The Heart of Darkness. It has been very challenging reading it. One thing that is difficult about it reading it is its vocabulary. Most of the words that are in the book I haven’t seen before like ostentation and despondency. Another thing that is difficult about the book is the text. Sometimes it is kind of hard to understand what the book is saying.

Another thing we been doing is grammar rules on noredink. I like this one better than the old grammar rules we use to do because I remember the things it teaches us. I also like how it incorporates are interest into the questions.

South Park (FC)


For this free choice blog I really don’t know what to write about, so I am just going to talk about comedy. One thing I find funny is comedy that is outrageous and that doesn’t care about the consequences of what they say. Some of my favorite comedy shows are South Park, Tosh.O, The Chappelle show, it’s always sunny in Philadelphia, and blue mountain state.

I decided to write about comedy shows because I was watching some South Park videos on YouTube of the funniest moments and I found it hilarious. One thing that makes South Park funny is the characters. Some of their funniest characters are Carman, Butters, Randy Marsh, Towelie, and Mr. garrison. One thing that I like about South Park is they don’t care about who they offend. They make fun of celebrities, politics, and social issues. One of my favorite episodes is when Butters was a pimp. One thing that made this episode funny is Butters is a little kid and he is really naïve. At first it started off with him hiring girls his age to kiss boys on the playground for money. Then as his business grew he asked real pimps for advice and he stole some of their prostitutes. Another thing that made this episode funny was the words he used and the way he used it. He used words like “bottom bitch” and the pimps were telling butters that he has to hit his prostitutes to earn their respect.

Overall South Park is a funny show. A majority of their episodes are funny and sometimes they start off normal then they get really weird. If you haven’t watched South Park I suggest that you watch it.
