Emerson Presentations Day II

Jacqueline: She made a poster in which she compiled quotes from the essay. Talked about fear and how we shouldn't care about what others think. Also talks about how the life is yours and making it yours and ends presentation from quote found on Instagram. Alejandra and Rosie: "Why be born an original, but end up dying a copy" and they represented this saying with eggs. They had one raw egg and one hard boil in which they show first the raw egg with just a slight pressure added we will crack just like that. On the other hand, with the hard boiled egg you can slowly peal yourself piece by piece and reveal yourself that way rather than cracking under pressure and spilling all that in you. This was different from other presentations I have ever seen and I would give them creative points. Liliana: brought in brussel sprouts and said that farmers are the only ones to believe in them yet several other people hate them. Class left with confusion and DP tells us to write down extended metaphor which we later learn is when comparison of two unlike things such as ideas and concepts that is carried throughout a couple of sentences or phrases. Similar to an allegory which is an extended metaphor throughout the whole story.
