What makes Harry Potter addictive are the characters, the props, and the plot Hogwarts is an actual castle composed of

several locations: Oxford University of England, the “Bodleian Library” and

commons; “Alnwick Castle”, the outer grounds such as traveling to Hagrids

cottage; and finally Christ Church used for the “Great Hall” (Destinations UK).

USSRInterpretation of Fidelity

I never loved nobody fully- cannot completely love one person.Always one foot on the ground- Not allowing to be overcome by blissful ignorance of love

that does allow some people see truths. Reality versus dream world.And by protecting my heart truly-By not falling in love, keeps the heart from hurt.I got lost in the sounds-Conversations between us and them

I hear…- Love is everywhere; in songs, on signs, in text, and in person. It clings to the mind much like a disease and infiltrates all thoughts.…breaks my heart- Love has been let in through the protected barriers.

Suppose I…- The possibilities of forever not finding love. The truth is love was recognized and acted upon.

Just to break my own fall- In order to keep from low. Love songs have a way to decrease the desire for another person. By exploiting yourself on paper, all fears and hopes, reveals the truths and thus allows freedom of the mind to be satisfied. Therefore no person necessary.

All my friends say that of courseIt’s gonna get better- The heartache will pass.

Fidelity is related to Moonlight for the

Misbegotten. Josie is afraid of Jim Tyrone’s indiscretions more so than her own lies. She can never “never love nobody fully”. Josie “got lost in the sounds” of her father’s scheme and Tyrone’s love puppy eyes.

Fleas?

My father is use to taking his blood pressure medicine every morning. One morning, my mother laid the dogs’ oral flea tablet on the counter. My father saw the white elongated pill and popped it into his mouth. When my mother went to mix it into the dog food she turned to my father questioning its disappearance. He responded, “I took it, you set it out for me, didn’t you?”

“Take Yourself out of The

Context”

Good news, my father no longer has fleas!

Fleas?

Humor is healthy. It releases endorphins into the brain to give the sensation of happiness. Humor extinguishes anger and sadness. Humor is also productive. It enables people to look at something from another perspective.

In the classroom humor allows one to “break the ice” with other classmates. Providing a comic relief from the serious discussions. Comic relief is just that, allowing a person release from the daunting reality, through humor. This can be just as valuable outside of the classroom.

Dig Deeper Watson

• Christie likes a reoccurrence in the majority of her novels, which is Hercule Poirot. Hercule is the lead crime investigator. He does his method of work alone, but has help from his friends. Poirot is much older than most main detective characters, at least near late sixties. A grumpy old man, but witty nonetheless.

• Agatha Christie is worth showcasing due to her talent to think ahead of the audience. The reader is unable to guess the outcome of the murder because of all the turn of events. Christie provides all the details of the murder, however, it is hard to decipher who, when, where, why and how. – First a crime is to be committed, which needs to be mapped out. – Next a detective is to unravel the crime in a life-like fashion. The author nor

characters can foreshadow the plot. – The amount of elements that are in procession are more complex than

other genres, • Several films were produced based on the titles above.• Her love of crime gave more to others than she could have possibly imagined.• Mystery is what enticed me to begin reading.
