1. I don't have any concerns. I plan on working hard and asking questions so I think this year will be good.
2. I need quietness. I sometimes do things at a slower pace to fully comprehend it.
3. I am outgoing but I am very nervous when it comes to public speaking.

1. To look back at history. If you don't know history you are doomed to repeat it.
2. To hear experiences. To see the previous generations and hear things from someone who experienced things first/secondhand.
3. His speech is to inform us about previous generations and native American history. He wants us to see and hear about life back then.

1. Yes, but in a good way. They want equality for Native Americans. The name "redskins" is a stereotype of Natives and is offensive.
2. I think that once things are deemed offensive towards any type of person or group of people that things should be changed and quit being said.

1. Habits people could do to be happier would be eating healthy, exercising, making to-do lists, and taking care of personal hygiene.
2. I learned this stuff when I was going through some of the worst depression and mental anguish during February. I stopped taking care of myself and pretty much rotted in my bed. One day I decided I had to face my problems get help and take care of myself again.

1. The description of the devil in different testaments and books of the bible changed how he was seen by the reader.
2. I believe the puritan style disappeared during the dark romantic period because it was filled with death so looking and reading about bad choices and bad people with heroes in them gave hope that things would get better and that the bad never wins to the good.

1. A figure of speech that compares one thing to another.
2. To make the story/poetry follow along that metaphor and to say it throughout the writing.
3. My depression is like a lost puppy. It follows me around even if I don't acknowledge its presence.

The first painting looks more realistic. It has lots of details and looks natural.
