Essay about “They’re Made out of Meat”
Daniel Trotier
You are in space, in the vastness of nowhere, right between what is known to man and the edge of the universe. Then on your radio, you hear what sounds like soup bubbling in a pot. Somehow, you can understand them. They give you coordinates to their planet, you get there and realize they’re made out of meat. The short sci-fi story, “They’re Made out of Meat” by Terry Bisson, combines fantasy and imagination to make the reader visualize the conversation of the two space explorers.
Sci-fi is one of my favorite genres of books. It’s a good type of book to read when the reader wants an escape to a world of flying cars and aliens and what not. For me that is escapism. I also like it as well as others because it makes you wonder, what would the world look like if it was futuristic and all that stuff. Also others like it for some of the same reasons as me. Some people like it because it is interesting. Other’s because it’s exciting. One thing for sure, the author’s main intent was probably to get the reader to imagine.
The author’s main purpose is to get the reader to imagining and visualizing the conversation about the mysterious encounter with these so called aliens. The imagination plays a key role in the story. In order to visualize the story you have to imagine. In my opinion, visualization is the important thing when someone reads because it sets the setting which is vital to the story. The story “They’re Made out of Meat” also involves some fantasy because talking meat is somewhat like Narnia. Instead of talking animals, there’s talking meat and other talking food, orbiting blob of mushy, possibly raw meat floating through space.
So to sum this up, “They’re Made out of Meat” is a very interesting sci-fi story. There isn’t a particular theme to the story. It isn’t a comedy, tragedy, irony, and definitely not a romance. The short story by Terry Bisson “They’re Made out of Meat” is a great story even though there is no recognizable mode within this four page story.

Patriotism Essay

Daniel Trotier
Patriotism
Patriotism, that is what sets America apart from all the other countries in the world. Our country has some of the most patriotic citizens. We’re one of the most blessed countries in the world because of our nation’s residents and their citizenship.

Our country is in the state is in because of the brave people who sacrificed their lives and everything they had for our country. For example, the soldiers who fought in the American Revolution. Enduring the hard, cold winter at Valley Forge. Low on supplies and ammo, but they managed to win the war. These people, some of them with only a musket and the clothes on their backs won against one of the most powerful countries in the world at the time. That is why America is what it is today. In the national anthem it says, “And the home of the brave”, that’s what our country is.
Our citizenship has helped our country progress. It has grown from 12 tiny colonies to one huge land mass. Citizenship is important because without it, there would be no one who did any nice things for other people and that would leave the world in chaos. If we never did anything like pick up litter and work with non-profit companies and so on, our world would be a stingy, old dumpster of a country. Mean people around every corner and no one to say, “How was your day?” or, “How can I help you?” The U.S. would be a living hell
To me patriotism means to be with your country and for it. Making it a better place and more welcoming than it already is. Patriotism is one of those things no matter how hard you try, you can’t get rid of it. That is why Patriotism is very important.

Soccer Acrostic Poem

Sportsmanship, an important component in soccer.

Organized, being able to schedule  and play multiple games at once.

Crowds, millions of people watching.

Colliding, likes for different teams and players fighting for the ball.

Entertaining, exciting and fun to watch.

Running, up down and around the field.

Sound Paragraph

Twenty years ago, a man and woman were standing at the train station, waiting for someone. When that person came, the man quickly hopped in the passenger seat and the woman jumped in back. The black car sped off. Its loud exhaust system pierced the mid-night quiet. The car pulled up in front of an empty warehouse and the three people got out. There they met five other people inside. Each carrying a brief case. Just as the brief cases were about to be opened, police sirens whaled outside. Everyone ran and hid. Pretty soon police were in the building searching in every single crack and crevice for the 8 people. They found one of the briefcases and as soon as they opened it, it blew up and destroyed the warehouse. It made the pitch black night look like day.
