You want a social life, with friends poem anylasis

The connection between the Dead man’s pocket and the poem You want a social life, with friends has a connection. The first connection between the poem and the story Dead man’s pocket is that the story’s both have possession in the story. For example in Dead man’s pocket his possession was his yellow paper instead of spending time with his wife. The possession in the poem was social life and parties. The story and the poem connects to my life in a certain way because my most possession is my little sister’s picture on my wall because I have not seen her in 9 years. When I wake up in the morning I look at the picture and it gives me motivation everyday.

Yellow Paper Paragraph

My most valuable item in my life is my little sister's karate picture. When I look at my wall I always see her picture every morning and night. Sometimes when I wake up I get emotional when I see the picture because I have not seen my little sister in eight to nine years. I notice that when I'm in a happy mood I see my youngest sister picture. I even realize that even though I do not see my sister physically I can still call her every day to see how she is doing. My little sister picture motivates me when I wake up and go to sleep every night to give me good luck in whatever I succeed in.

" Contents of the Dead Man's Pocket" Plot Change

Tom Benecke decision was wrong in the first place. His wife just asked him if he wanted to got to the movies and he chooses to do his work. The result of his choice was his yellow piece of paper flew out the window and he would carry it every where he went and so his paper is lost. The decision I would have made if my husband asked me if I want to go to the movies with him even I had work to do my remark would be yes. Paper work could get finished after you come back from the movies or on your free time. The plot would change by my decision because there would be no cause and effect or any complications.

"Friends or Studying Paragraph"

If I was studying for my science test and my friend wanted to hang out I would tell them I cant because I want to pass the test. I would rather study for my test and get a good grade instead of hanging with friends while I'm studying. Your friends might get upset with you or ignore you the next day but that is okay because your friends think that school is not that important but reality is when you get your education you get far in life. Also education not only gets you places in life but it helps you learn interesting cool facts about life that you never heard of.

" Paralyzed By Fear"

The one time I remember I was paralyzed by fear was when I was four years old. I was living in a two story house with my grandma, uncle and my seven siblings. My oldest brother was watching Chuckie the bride and I had asked him if I can watch the movie with him. Then he said yeah and so I sat down on the couch and started watching the movie. Everybody was asleep already and it was one in the morning and I was the only one in the living room. The t.v cut off by itself and turned back on and so I started to get scared and so I thought it was the electricity going out but it wasn't. I decided to get ready to go to bed but then I thought I was seeing things but Chuckie popped out of the t.v. So I ran to the room and started to go to sleep but then had nightmares and so I never watch scary movies anymore.

My most embarrassing moment of my life is when I was four turning five. I was getting ready for kindergarten and my school had a summer camp in the school. My brother went to the summer camp with me because my grandma wanted my brother to stay with me in summer camp so nothing would happen to me so my brother came with me. One day at summer camp it was really hot and boiling and so there was a swing but my friend was sitting on the swing and so I had to use the bathroom. The staff thought I was lying and so they told me to wait fifteen more minutes. After my friend got off the swing I sat on the swing and everybody started backing away from me. I started to cry because I pooped in my pants because the staff told me to wait twenty minutes and I could not wait twenty minutes. I rushed to the bathroom and I could not hold it and so I pooped on myself some more. My uncle and my brother came and got me and took me home so I can change clothes and I got made fun of after I went back to summer camp because my friends said I was not potty trained right.
