I haven't been having any fun recently. I work, go to school, and do chores so my free time has been limited. I work 5 days of the week, out of these two are weekend days. On my two off days I go to school, and do chores once I get home. I finally realized this when all of my friends were at the homecoming game while I was at work. I feel the pressure of wanting to be successful is deterring me from not quitting my job. Even if I quit my job I wouldn’t be able to do anything because I wouldn't have the money.
Today in class we learned about rhetorical devices. The first one we discussed was hyperbole, which is an exaggeration. The second was understatement. An understatement is the force of a descriptive statement that is less than what one would normally expect. Third we went over litotes, which are an emphasis on a point by using a word opposite to the condition. Fourth we learned antithesis, this makes use of a contrast in language to bring out a contrast in ideals. Lastly we were introduced to hypophora which is asking a question then proceeding to answer it.
