Fun Home (2) | Studies on Empathy
https://christineoberthong.wordpress.com/2016/04/17/fun-home-2/comment-page-1
April 17, 2016. 1 “My numbness, along with all the mealy-mouthed mourning, was making me irritable. What would happen if we spoke the truth? 8230; I didn’t find out” — “Fun Home” by Alison Bechdel (pg. 125). Because he was a manic-depressive, closeted fag. And he couldn’t face living in this small-minded small town one more second. Was she afraid for what others would think of her? 2 “With similar perversity, the sparkling creek that coursed down from the plateau and through our town was crystal cl...

CAPYBARA P4 CRITIQUE BY WOLF | Studies on Empathy
https://christineoberthong.wordpress.com/2016/05/02/capybara-p4-critique-by-wolf
CAPYBARA P4 CRITIQUE BY WOLF. May 2, 2016. ORGANIZATION, WORD CHOICE, CONCISENESS. 1 Unity, Coherence, and Flow — 6. Very coherent essay, flows very smoothly! Also, I was a bit confused when you wrote “reminding myself that any mistakes I make are part of my path will free me,” specifically that end part. 2 Organization and Logical Order — 7. Well organized, could definitely get an idea of where you were going with your essay. 3 Specificity and “Concreteness” — 7. 4 Verbal and Visual Rhetoric — 7. I thin...

World Lit Final Exam | Studies on Empathy
https://christineoberthong.wordpress.com/2016/05/08/world-lit-final-exam
World Lit Final Exam. May 8, 2016. For almost all of recorded history, the majority of humankind has striven towards an existence based on morality and empathy. However, to whom that morality and empathy extends to has constantly fluctuated between including and excluding nonhumans. Two reasons for this change are what Pope Francis called the culture of relativism, and the overarching belief that reason is what puts humans above all other living things. On Another’s Sorrow. The Four Stages of Cruelty.

DEER P4 CRITIQUE BY WOLF. May 14, 2016. CONCISENESS, PUNCTUATION, WORD CHOICE. 1 Unity, Coherence, and Flow 4. You might want to put “as part of my major” after (or somewhere between) “I was required to take several courses in architectural history with professors Speck and Lopez.” It’ll help the sentence flow more. Make sure to cut this sentence up into smaller sentences too! 2 Organization and Logical Order 7. It’s very clear where you’re going in the essay! 3 Specificity and Concreteness 6. Wasn’...

March | 2016 | Studies on Empathy
https://christineoberthong.wordpress.com/2016/03
Monthly Archives: March 2016. Best and Worst (First Week of April). March 30, 2016. For the last few weeks, I’ve been getting pretty poor grades for my Chem lab reports. However, I think that I’ve finally gotten into the groove of “what to put in” and “what not to put in” (something that’s very few and far in-between, unfortunately). I feel. To do well in the next upcoming reports. On another note, I recently made cards for kids in hospitals, and I felt really. A feeling that soon evolved into two things:.

Tawny Gray Wolf | Studies on Empathy
https://christineoberthong.wordpress.com/2015/10/08/tawny-gray-wolf/comment-page-1
October 8, 2015. A single voice flittered through the air, traveling across moonbeams and curling around the tall trees, flowing into my ears. I flicked them forward, now alert as I stopped in my tracks. It sang, Here! A pause. Here…? Soon, another voice joined my brother’s. Stronger and more confident in that strength, my father’s voice broke through the darkness and gave me a better idea of their direction. I picked up my pace, lips pulling back as my excitement grew. Our pace matched that of our paren...

Woman Warrior (2) | Studies on Empathy

April 24, 2016. 1 “Oh, the shame of it–a whole family of skinny children. And your father–he’s so skinny, he’s disappearing… I knew I didn’t have too many years left. Do you know how I got all this fat? Eating your leftovers” — “The Woman Warrior” by Maxine Hong Kingston (pg. 102). 8221; — (pg. 102). I was really curious as to why she said that it’s “a wonderful way to go.” I know I wouldn’t want to die like that. But then again, women in many cultures, specifically Chines...This quote reminded me of the...

April | 2016 | Studies on Empathy
https://christineoberthong.wordpress.com/2016/04
Monthly Archives: April 2016. April 30, 2016. During our time at the garden, I wasn’t entirely sure what to write. After a few minutes of thinking about what I should write, I remembered something from about five years ago. One of my Humanities teachers had taken us to a Japanese Garden, and as we all sat on rocks surrounding two ponds connected by a small waterfall, we wrote haikus. So, that’s what I decided to do:. It looked weird when I tried just typing it into WordPress…. April 24, 2016. 1 “Oh...
