Persuasion Essay
So in this place we now call Animal Farm there used to be an evil presence. Man used to rule over the animals here, until one day, they rebelled. After they chased the men out of the farms they set up a different government where the pigs are in charge because they are the smartest. However there is a small catch, in the almost utopian society two pigs who are in charge are competing to be the top dog. These two pigs are Napoleon and Snowball, in my opinion Snowball is the pig for the job. To convince you I’m going to give you three reasons. Reason One! Snowball is smarter! Everyone wants a smart leader, don’t they? I mean isn’t it smart that he is coming up with the windmill idea? Also, if you want more reasons he is smarter you can take the fact that he made up the 7 commandments. It takes a real smart bucket to make those. Reason Two! Snowball is an animal pig! By that I mean that he works with the animals and wants what is best for them. Seriously though, just think of what electricity can do! Anybody else want a leader that can do what's best for them? He even put his life at risk to help keep the farm out of human hands! Reason three! Snowball wants to try to convince the farms to rebel against their humans. Whereas Napoleon wants to try to kill the humans. I would wholeheartedly agree with this idea, except that it would take many animal’s lives. What Snowball is planning will take many less lives, if each farm individually revolts when the farmers aren't expecting it the animals will be safer. Even if they aren't part of this farm aren't they animals too? So in conclusion i believe that Snowball is the better choice for three reasons. One, he is smarter and if the leader is smart everyone follows him and he will know what's best for all his followers. Two, he cares about the animals more, he doesn't want them to work as much, and he will work for a farm without humans. Three, he wants rebellion, however he wants to rebel smartly. He doesn't want to just charge in full speed and lose lives, he wants to sit back and let everyone share the load.

In this vicious campaign for the head of Animal Farm there is only really one true answer. The head should be Snowball. The reason I'm saying this is that he has better ideas, i mean, we can do what Snowball says and make a windmill to work less, or we can do what Napoleon says and we have to slave like we did under the humans. Another reason is that Snowball works with the all the animals and fought himself to keep Animal Farm safe, no one really knows where Napoleon was during the battle of Cowshed. For a final reason(only because time won't permit more) Napoleon would have us try to kill the humans, which would undoubtedly end in many animal deaths, however, Snowball wants to send out more pigeons to convince the other farms to rebel, which would still get rid of the humans, but in a much less bloody way.
1(Can a DREAM change the world?) Well if you want to change the world you'll need a dream. So you CAN change the world but it would take a lot of people to believe in your dream and it would take time. If you want an example of a dream that changed the world you won't have to look far. For us in America we can just look in our history. Our founding fathers had a dream of freedom and equality, now everyone in the world wants to claim they are close to America in equality. 2(How would YOU change the world?) Honestly, I haven't thought about it. If I would change the world I would try to get American football around the world. I know its different from most people, but I love the game. Absolutely love it, right now I am in an offseason program. It is hard but I want to give the world my determination and love of something that is more than me. 3(Free Write) Last week I wrote about not knowing what to write about. Today I am going to start a weekly update. So this week was a little bit of a shock at the beginning. My grandparents are visiting right now and everything was fine but then Sunday night grandma had a small stroke and was in the hospital until Wednesday. Luckily she is getting better everyday. She keeps being able to walk better and better, plus she is even getting her grip strength back in her left hand.
If you've read my earlier blogs you'll know that I play football. Also you'll know that we are doing an offseason workout program. It is definitely the hardest physical thing that I've ever been in. It has noticeably made me stronger and bigger and faster since football season. Even though football only ended in the beginning of November. Alright, I have no idea what to write. So I'm going to write about having no idea what I want to write about. Sometimes, which for me means mostly, I have no clue what I want to write about. Isn't it hard for you too? I mean there is so much to choose from that it can be overwhelming. I've decided that from now on I'll write about an experience I've had or probably football. Because where can you go wrong with weird things and football?
One of my greatest blessings is my family. I feel like it is a huge blessing to have a big family that loves me. Not too many people have a big family anymore. I don't have the biggest family, but it isn't small either. I have about...34 cousins on my mom's side, and just over 20 on my dad's side.
The biggest difference is that on my dad's side i am the youngest cousin. My dad is the youngest child in his family and I am his youngest. So I'm quite a bit younger than most of them, which also means that they are old enough to be married. So I am starting to have a lot more cousins on that side. All of them combined have close to 10 or 11 kids, so family reunions are really funny. They are also full of little cute kids running around causing havoc. My magic cleaner would be lit. It would look like a magic eraser, except it would always stay freshy white, and it wouldn't only clean counter tops. My Magic Cleaner would clean out smells too. So for example I play football, and for anyone who has ever been in a locker room it really doesn't smell good. So if i brought my Degreaser Desmeller(that's the long name for my magic cleaner) I could get it wet and then wipe it across whatever smells bad...and Voila! The smell goes bye bye! Along with the gross looking spots! It works on cloth too!
See, I have this problem. I seem to have this problem of not caring about school. I mean, I feel like I should care about school and try to learn. Also, shouldn't a good student try to apply everything to something? Except that I don't have to for good grades so I don't. I sort of want to be a better student, but I still can't figure out what I have to do. I'm guessing that I have to listen more and try harder. I might even give it a try.
I am thankful for many things. One thing I am grateful for is that I live in a great town! I have a great school that has good test scores. I may not have the best scores but I'm not bad. I'm very grateful for a healthy body for sports. I'm thankful for weird friends that I find things in common with.
I prefer sunsets. For multiple reasons actually. First and foremost would have to be that if it is sunrise I have to run from church to football. The second would have to be that I could go to sleep after seeing it...well actually I stay up 'til much later.My third would have to be that I think it is the most beautiful time of the day. My fourth and final reason is that I can always talk to my family at night, since they all get off work around 6 or 7 and sunset is about that time. |
