Coheed & Cambria - The Broken
Video Games are Awesome!
Tomorrow, I get my check from Janelle for working in agriculture. With my money I am going to buy two new games for my Xbox 360. I am also going to buy a pack of blank DVDs. Then I am going to play my new games and, of course, enjoy them. I am currently playing a game called Forza Motorsport 2. It is actually a really fun game and I like the fact that it has more than the usual amount of cars to choose from and it is particularly realistic when it comes to physics related parts of the game.

Imagery and Figurative Language
At first I thought that imagery was language that appeals to the five senses, but then I learned that this is right. I also learned about figurative language. I used to think that figurative language was a phrase used to describe something in terms of something else and is not meant to be understood on a literal level, but I learned that it is what I just said it is. The three main types of figurative language are metaphor, simile, and personification.

Irony & Ambiguity
At first I didn't know what irony is, but i learned that this was wrong.Actually, irony is either when someone says one thing but means the opposite or something unexpected. There are three types of irony: verbal irony, situational irony, and dramatic irony.I also learned about ambiguity. I used to not know what ambiguity is, but i learned that ambiguity is a choice of one or more meanings or interpretation. On my irony and ambiguity pretest my score is currently unavailable. On my irony and ambiguity posttest i hope that i will be above grade-level .
