Napoleon Complex


I believe that Napoleon Complex is a small person acting tough to make up for something. Most of the times for his lack of size.
     I actually did know someone like this and he did the same things to me that Curley does or tries to do to Lennie. He would hit me, but of course, it wouldn’t hurt me. At one point I did get mad and hit him and from then on he became a little more feisty. Now I haven’t even seen him around.
     This Complex relates to Curley in EVERY aspect it shows and tells you. Curley is trying to make up for his lack of size. I think it also is because people have a lack of confidence in their bodys and they want good, cool, nice things to make up for things that they think is bad.

The great depression was when Economics changed, big loss of jobs, or wall street crashed.

According to the website Wiki Answers, “The causes of the Great Depression are a matter of active debate among
economists, and are part of the larger debate about economic crises, although the popular belief is that the Great
Depression was caused by the 1929 crash of the stock market” (Wiki Answers).

Who were the migrant workers and how were they affected by the Great Depression? 
According to the website Wiki Answers “The migrant workers were Gorge and Lennie and they were affected by it because there were a lot of job losses.” (Wiki Answers)

Do migrant workers exist today? Where? what kinds of jobs do they have? 
According to the website Wiki Answers “Migrant or seasonal workers usually are found in the agricultural industry, picking crops as they become ripe and moving on to other farms and orchards as they are needed.” (Wiki answers)


American Dream


I think the American Dream is that when people think or predict that there going to come to the United States and be very successful. I think American dream today is to live a better life. I think the negative parts about the Untied states is that if you want to come the United States you have to come with permission you cant just come with out permission. And the positive parts about the United States are that there more freedom and more jobs and somewhere to go out everyday, which would be very fun.

My American dream is to go to college and become a rich person something I would want to be or study for is a Medical Assistant or Engineer. But I also have another American dream is to become a professional soccer player. I’ve been playing soccer at the age of 5 years old.  I think my strengths out of all are in soccer in my opinion I think I’m good.  In my future I see me with great family and a big house with a lot of money. I Think something that could really stop me from being a pro soccer player is that if some hurts my leg and I could never walk or me having to quit because my mom is sick or my dad is sick but other than that I don’t think nothing else would stop me from soccer. And going to college I think maybe my grades could stop me cause there just times when I slack off in school.

I Would Define an American dream by explaining that the people who come in America have a dream. People who come to America want to be successful in there life, and there wife and kids or maybe just themselves. America’s dream have kinda changed in sorts of ways, Because Some people still go for there dreams. And some of them just don’t. The portative about America is that we have good people that work very hard, and try to make there dream’s become true. And then for the negative  there are some people who do bad stuff.  And don’t really care.     My America Dream is to become a teacher a special ed teacher to help special needs kids out. Because I like the way there are they are fun to be around and I could take my sister with me because she is special need herself.

I hope for my future the I will  be successful  Because I want to have a good life for me and my sister and family. To make them proud of me and so I can take care of my sister. Because it will be me and her, What I Think that will prevent me for my dreams are the negative stuff in my life. Boyfriend problems, Or going out  and partying or being lazy and just not do anything, But if  I keep my mind off of those things I will have no struggle in it. So I plan to just try to stay good for awhile and then go party and do whatever when I have reached my goal .

American Dream



 MICE OF MEN

Every one that comes in to America has a dream. I think the American dream is, based on what we read, is to be successful, and have freedom. A lot of people used to come to America to escape the horrers of their country. I think the American dream today is to live a better live. To be able to find a job, a good job. The negative things about America is that if you want to come to America you have to have permission from someone in the united states not just come without permission. The positive part is that you have the freedom to choose a job, go out when you want and live where you choose.

            My American dream is to be successful and have a good life.  I hope in the future it is easier to become an American citizen. I also hope that I get in to collage or find a really good job. The things that can stop me from living this dream is the fact that i am not an American citizen. My strengths for this is that I am a hard working person and I will try to do my best and be my best. I am a good student and have good grades.

I would define an American dream by explaining, that all the people who come in America has a dream. People who come to America want to be successful in life, for them and their families. An American dream has not really changed over years, because the people who still come to America still wants to successful for their families. Also In some ways it had changed because some people who come in America don’t have dreams. They just come here to work. Also before people came for freedom and religion. Some negatives are that some people work really hard every day and they would get really tired. They would get tired because they would work in farms under the really hot sun. Some positives are that they were successful in life.





My American dream would be to be successful in life with my family. I hope that for my future that my future job would be something I like do. For my future I want to be a good person. My strengths for the future would be that I am a good person and I will do anything to reach my goal for the future. I want to be someone important in the future for my family and me. Some things that wont make accomplish my goal is that if my family are not with me in the future. I want to follow my dreams in the future.
