My Review... On The Elephant Man


The Elephant Man is a film of great film full with character and passion.  Obviously great time and detail was placed into the piece, which makes one as a human reflect on the deceiving truths that society hides.  Personally, John Merrick (the elephant man) has more knowledge, compassion, and gratitude that another human being could have.  In despite of his condition he did not show weakness.  He was a pure gentleman one of few who portray the true meaning of sincerity and humbleness.  Those, men who partied and disrespected their women to only have a one night stand were the ones to bully John Merrick.  Through my eyes I view it as if to now seem weak or scared they approached our “elephant man” and create a superior level for him or herself.  The true monster is not the one that has a different physical condition than others but those who have rotten soul for it is possible to change the physical view but not the internal.

Welcome to My Nightmare...


       It all began this semester due to heavy assigned homework and lack of sleep.  One, night, the night before one of my projects was due it took me about till 2 a.m. to finish my assignment.  I, of course do not blame my teacher since I was the one in fault for procrastinating.  Believing that after a long day and night I was about to finally rest for at least three hours I was horribly mistaken.  At the beginning it seemed as if a normal day was being put to rest but in reality it became the contrary my body paralyzed yet, I was completely awake, consciously.  Couldn’t move or talk I was still as a stone. With no one to help me I would be yelling within. Yelling for my mom to move me actually for anyone to come and move me awake me from this nightmare. Finally finding a way to escape I realized I had only been “asleep” for 15 minutes. Now I know this is sleep paralysis, the feeling of being conscious but not being able to move. Never again will i procrastinate.
