Everything is altered from the ordinary. There is a new smell, sound and sight around me now. I did not want to move here. I want my familiar smell, sounds and sight. I'm sickened by the new idea of my future, especially from the fact that my parents made me move here. I want my friends back home, I hate being alone. I feel as if I am a bird lost in the sky, not knowing where to go. I want to go back to my old life. I want the life I know and not this unfamiliar one. I am done with this place already, bring me back home.

Love and Hate
I have to get used to the new smell roaming around me. The new sounds off in the distance while I stand on my front porch. The new sight I see from my house. Everything is unfamiliar and untouched in the house. This is a new start to the beginning of my future and it is an unbelievable feeling. I'm in love with the idea of not knowing anyone and being able to become a new person. I am blown away that my parents chose this location as own new house. Who knew this is where my future would end up. I get to walk the beach everyday and smell the ocean breeze as it blows through my screen door. I could get used to living here everyday.

Distallation
In the passage read today during class the author explains in detail the grotesque conditions that scientists go through in order to help find a better way for the future of people which also helps to show signs of imagery, striking hyperbole and powerful word choice. Imagery is laid out in the passage when the authors states how the scientists “stick pins through the miserable wretches, or cut them up, without a pang of remorse, into little pieces”, or how the vivid hyperbole is over exaggerated when “poring over one of the spider’s insides with a magnifying glass”, along with the word choice of adjectives the author uses. The authors purpose is to show the disgust some people have about scientists using animals are research. The passage gives a brief look into the scientific world and what types of animals they use to better their findings for the future.
