         <description><![CDATA[<div>3. If I were to respond to George, I would tell him the book is about moths and not butterflies. I would also tell him that the significance of the moth burning is to show that life really has no end. After the moth burned and disappeared, it came back as a second wick and flame that burned for hours. This was to show that even after death there is still light.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>#4 One time I went to rising park in Lancaster and went on top of the mountain. When I was on top of the mountain, I saw and heard many things that were interesting. One thing that I saw that caught my attention&nbsp; was how pretty the sky was and how many different shades of blue the sky was. When I look at the sky, I can see the reflections on my life and the the emotions that come with the colors. When I look down from the mountain I can see many cars and buildings of all different shapes and sizes. The mountain felt rocky when I went climbing up the mountain. Everything about going up on the mountain is beautiful and God's gift to the world.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>4.) Every year I go hunting I see nature at its true form I see the leaves falling, the animals pouncing around, interacting with each other. I watch time go by, the seasons change, the leaves fall. The&nbsp; trees swaying back and forth, I smell the fresh air away. What I hear is so amazing, I hear silence.</div>]]></description>

Also, the butterfly symbolizes the beauty and growth of her writing.</li></ul>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>5. I went to Mt. Pleasant with friends, there were many trees and rocks on the mountain. I had heard people talking and cicadas chirping in the grass. We came across a few other people with dogs, some guys running with a guitar that ended up hitting my friend's dog in the face.</div><div>At one point, we came across graffiti on the mountainside, chronicling the dates of relationships and various images and words that someone might've found funny. I remember the rough texture of trees and rocks when I slipped and fell multiple times. There was glass off trail, the shards sparkled in the fading sun and boasted jagged edges.</div><div>We looked out over the buildings, pointing out the bright pink umbrella in someone's backyard, and the in-ground pools. Some of the pine needles brushed my hair. By the time we were done, two of us were covered in sweat.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>4.&nbsp; About a month ago, my family and I took a family vacation to Mexico. When we were in Mexico we spent most of our time on the beach. When I was on the beach I felt exceptionally close to the natural environment. The days that I spent on the beach were wonderful. The sights and smells were bursting with excitement every time I stepped on the beach. The sand between my toes, with the warmth of the sun on my back felt tremendous. You could taste the salt from the ocean after coming up for some air, while snorkeling. The fish were shining with amazing color and out of the water the smell of a beach buffet filled the air. When I was on the beaches of Mexico, I felt exceptionally close to the natural environment. That was an experience that I will never forget.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<ul><li>5.) For the longest time I felt like I never really fit in any where, felt like there was a place that was meant for me that I just have not discovered yet. Until my parents took me to Chicago, right when I got there I no longer felt out of place I felt like I belong there. I was amazed with all people and I wanted to explore every part of the city. All the outside art work blew me away, the tiny coffee shops that were probably the best coffee I have ever had, and old town Chicago which was unbelievably beautiful. Being in Chicago just made me feel so much closer to myself and that I finally belong there.&nbsp;</li></ul><div><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>#2&nbsp;</div><ul><li>I think Anne gives this advice because when you are writing something, you may think faster than you write which can cause sentences to not make sense and typos. Also if you do not have a cold eye when looking at essays, you can get off on a tangent very fast and next think you know, you are not even close to the actual theme or story you are writing about. When you are writing you tend to make things more personal than they need to be. When you look at the writing with a analytical view, it allows you to be open for suggestion and make sure it's not just based on personal experiences. &nbsp;</li></ul>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>4.&nbsp; A visit that remember being especially close to nature is when I went to Maui a couple years ago. As soon as I got off the airplane I am hit with overwhelming smell of salt water, and the overwhelming heat.&nbsp; In the mornings, being able to watch the sunrise because the time difference has me so messed up I&nbsp; cannot sleep right. Hearing the ocean waves break at the shore ,and just feel the sand and water between my toes makes me feel whole. The taste of the salt water when are snorkeling and the amazement of all the beautiful fish. I feeling having salt water in my hair is something I love and the feeling of being kissed by the sun is something I never want to forget.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>In 2010, we visited the Smokey Mountains.&nbsp; We were in a cabin that sat about three quarters up the side of a mountain.&nbsp; When I first stepped on the deck, the smoke that looked like all the pictures I had seen was great.&nbsp; The sunrise in my bare feet the next day, the fresh cool air that kept me comfortable was all new to me.&nbsp; I am usually too hot in the sun, but it was the prefect temperature with a breeze that was cold but not too hot.&nbsp; The sounds of the birds was not ridiculous like normal, but very peaceful and calming. It was my first experience horseback riding.&nbsp; The smells were not so great, but the ride was phenomenal.&nbsp; My brother had a horse they nicknamed "moron" because he often stopped mid trail and just didn't move.&nbsp; He looked as if he had never been there before and did not know where to go.&nbsp; The tour guides accents, I didn't pick up on but imitated the names just as they had said them.&nbsp; My parents were laughing about it, and I had no clue. &nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<ul><li>Question #1: I think in paragraph ten Annie Dillard is trying to say that she knows there are moth carcasses laying on her bathroom floor. She knows she needs to pick it up but she never actually does. Every morning she goes in the bathroom and stares at the moths that have been eating and never does anything about it.&nbsp; She thinks more and more about how you do not get to choose your own fate, fate chooses you. The moths did not get to decide whether or not they were going to be eaten, it just happened because that was what was supposed to happen to them. No matter what happens in life, you can never decide where you end up.</li></ul><div><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. Annie Dillard is opposed to writing personally, because she believes that it can lead to dreadful writing. In particular, she thinks that a writer of a personal narrative should try to avoid getting caught up in contemplation of yourself. That can lead to the writer adding things that do not need to be in the writing. Another thing that she is afraid a writer of a personal narrative could do is express their opinion. It is important as a writer to not express your opinion and keep everything open for the audience.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>4. A place that I can recall being very close to nature was in Costa Rica. When I was here, we went zip lining through the treetops.&nbsp; I saw lots of wildlife habitats and peaceful nature noises.&nbsp; This experience drew me closer to the smells of fresh bark and dewy leaves.&nbsp; Along with the vivid smell, I listened as the wind blew though my hair, all while the sound of cable from the zip line burst in a one-way motion so fast I couldn't yell, all I could do was smile and take in everything as quick as I could before I reached the other side.&nbsp; This experience was one to remember and a memory that will last a life time.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>#1&nbsp;</div><ul><li>Annie Dillard opposes writing personally, because she believes it is captivating and can cause more harm to your writing than&nbsp; good. She states, "It can lead to dreadful writing. The danger is that you'll get lost in the contemplation of your wonderful self." (Page 15, stanza 24) Dillard believes you should avoid writing personally, some pitfalls to writing personally are: you will include information for lousy reasons, you will forget about the reader's perspective, babble more often and you will forget your attributes, style and sometimes even the mode of your writing.&nbsp;</li></ul>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Recall a visit you made to a place where you felt especially close to the natural environment--the wilderness, a city park, or the beach, for example. Make a list of the physical details--objects, sounds, smells, tastes, colors, textures--that you remember most vividly from that experience. </div><div>A place I feel closest to the natural environment is West Virginia. My grandparents own a campsite in the middle of Smoke Hole. When we go we fish, hike, take long drives, and explore. It smells so fresh and crisp. We are surrounded by trees, streams, rivers and wildlife. Everything you see is green, the grass, the trees, weeds and plants. I love the way the stream water runs over your feet, it is so cold and refreshing, and the way the rocks feel on your bare feet as your walking upstream.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>5. The kind of writer I am may vary depending on what is being written. In day-to-day life, I am a snappy writer who includes small jokes in what I write to show that I can have a sense of humor while still expressing&nbsp; myself through writing. When I am writing, I normally work best while I'm at school with nothing to do; I also work better with a deadline so it will force me to crank essays out faster than it would without any given date. Basically, I work best while under pressure so I have no choice in when and where I can write and a time limit is given. I prefer typing over writing because I am fast when typing and a sloppy writer, using an odd mixture of cursive and print and maybe a weird symbol to replace the word "of". I do not go through much of a process when it comes to writing, if it appears in my mind I'll sit back and try to flesh out the idea as much as I can.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div> According to Dillard a writer needs an idea or story to write a narrative. The moth essay illustrates what she meant. Dillard was writing about everything to try and get something to come to mind. The moths she saw on her bathroom floor reminded her about the moth she watched fly into the candle. She wanted to write about that, but did not quite remember all the details about the moth and the candle. That is when she looked in her journals to see if she ever wrote about the moth and the candle and she did. The is an example of how pieces of text are made, they are first just written in a journal as an idea then later become essays or stories like The Moth Essay. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<ul><li>Question #1: I think in paragraph ten Annie Dillard is trying to say that she knows there are moth carcasses laying on her bathroom floor. She knows she needs to pick it up but she never actually does. Every morning she goes in the bathroom and stares at the moths that have been eating and never does anything about it.&nbsp; She thinks more and more about how you do not get to choose your own fate, fate chooses you. The moths did not get to decide whether or not they were going to be eaten, it just happened because that was what was supposed to happen to them. No matter what happens in life, you can never decide where you end up.</li></ul><div><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. Annie Dillard is generally opposed to "writing personally" because you could potentially get lost in the contemplation of you, and your thoughts. If you write personally, you might write about things that happened in your life (which is boring for the reader) or even things you feel strongly about (which will come across the same way). Annie Dillard also states that if you "babble uncontrollably," writing becomes risky to the reader only because it may lose its pzazz and spark in the writing. &nbsp;</div><div><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<ul><li>Question #1: Annie Dillard is generally opposed to "writing personally" because she believes that people will get too caught up talking about themselves. She fears that one will get lost in thought and go into too much detail about themselves. She feels that a writer of a personal narrative should not go off topic when trying to write about them self. Revision is also key, she advises to reread their readings several times and continue to add or take out certain areas. These areas should either be too&nbsp; boring and off topic, needing to be taken out; or entertaining enough to add in to keep readers reading and leave them wondering what happens next.</li></ul><div><br></div>]]></description>

The dangers she feels are that the writer will hold a popular opinion of yourself, and include things for a lousy reason.

         <description><![CDATA[<div>2. Dillard uses an analogy between the burning moth and the writer to explain her feelings toward writing.

Dillard explains that writing has this attraction that pulls people in but requires devotion and sacrifice. </div><div><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>A place I felt especially close to nature was when I went canoeing on the Hocking River, while on the water with my best friend I felt calm and at ease by the sound of the water rushing and the birds chirping. We went on the beginner course and would get out to swim or just lay on some of the pieces of land sticking through the water. Just laying there with the water touching my skin and all the sounds of nature in my ears made me feel as if I was not dwelling over things in my life, I was just apart of nature and all of its beauties.</div><div>Not only did the sound and the feel of the water and sand make me feel as if I was apart of it, being able to see all that it had to offer and the different lives around me made it all surreal.  As I swam I could see and feel the fish swimming around me. The experience was amazing and helped me to get away for a little while.</div>]]></description>

Whenever I am around things from my childhood it brings back memories that I've stored in the back of my mind. The familiar smell of my house also helps with remembering.

Now when I smell that I think of all the things that happened when the vanilla was filling the air inside. &nbsp;</div><div><br></div>]]></description>
