Nocturnal Animals (30.11.2017)
Yesterday was a very stressing day at work; I had many cases to finish, a big crime to investigate and an angry supervisor to deal with. I returned back home and decided not to sleep until doing something to relive such stress. After thinking for some time, I decided to watch a movie. Currently, I am at work and I am thinking why can’t I stop thinking about this movie?

Dogs have always proved themselves to be man’s best friend, they are loyal to their father who raises them, fed them and took care of them. When I was twelve years old, I got my first dog, she was a two months old Rottweiler, it was the best moment of my life. I started taking care of her and deal with her as if she is my second sister; spent much time with her and took her out every day. I even used to sit with her for hours talking with her. Although I couldn’t understand her language, I always had that feeling deep inside me telling me that she understands. I used to talk to her about this guy who used to bully me in class, that girl in the judo class I had a crush on, my parents’ fights which I couldn’t handle anymore. She used to look at me with curiosity with her eyes fully opened and her head moving right and left with every new sentence I say as if she enjoys what I am saying. I and Donna had a strong bond, stronger than her bond with my brother and my little sister. Moreover, when we had a family gathering she used to come sit by my side or on my lap, which used to drive my family jealous. They used to ask me about the secret of her love to me, they were feeding her maybe more than me, they used to take her out and take care of her, I used to believe that she loves me because I was talking to her, I was doubtless that she can understand and feel everything I was telling her. …show more content…

As I love Africa and I have never traveled out of Egypt I decided to go to Tanzania. The idea of Tanzania got in my head as one of my best friends asked me to join her in spring but I couldn’t. After she returned she told me about how beautiful Tanzania is and how she spent the best vacation of her life there. I called the embassy and asked for some information about the visa, two days later I went to it, it is located in Mohandeseen district, the people working there are very friendly and welcoming, I paid the fees and two days after the called me to receive my passport with the visa. I confirmed my flight booking at this day, packed and traveled to Tanzania. I took me five hours to reach Dar El Salam airport, once I got there I felt so happy that I took this decision. To go to Zanzibar from Dar El Salam you should take a ferry for one hour then you reach Stone Town the capital of Zanzibar, I booked this ferry trip before traveling as my friend recommended I should do because the port is usually very crowded as it is the only mean of transportation one can use to go to Zanzibar.

In the autobiographical Holocaust novel, Night by Elie Wiesel, the motif of Jewish people being animals illustrates how genocide makes people resort to animalistic senses. When Soviet forces were approaching the concentration camp where Elie Wiesel was enslaved, Buna, the Nazis forced the Jews to walk for hours to another camp in Germany. While on the march Wiesel describes how “if one of us [Jews] stopped for just a second, a quick shot would eliminate the filthy dog”(Wiesel, 85). Wiesel is referring to his own community as a “filthy dog”, the connotations of this phrase imply submission and inferiority. The non-human connotations of this phrase demonstrate how torture and harrassment from the Nazis is making him see himself as less than

One of Wiesel 's strengths in Night is to show the full face of dehumanization. It is something that the Nazis perpetrated against the people they imprisoned. The tattooing of numbers on the prisoners, something that Eleizer notes, is of extreme importance. A- 7713 is by definition an example of dehumanization because it robs the humanity of the individual. The abuses that the Nazis perpetrate on their prisoners is another example of dehumanization.

After a few of David Sedaris’ humorous essays, I had thought that I had finally grasped his tone as a writer, but after only a page or two of “You Can’t Kill the Rooster,” I had found myself not only wrong, but also in the midst of complete hysterics. The way Sedaris describes his brother, Paul, plastered a smirk on my face that would later transition into a full-body convulsive fit of laughter. Because of Paul’s vulgarity in his choice of words, at first I was hesitant from writing about it, but honestly it was just too darn funny not to. Sedaris’ tone while recalling his brother’s most vulgar comments was in my opinion, pure comedic gold. One of my personal favorite of Paul’s sayings is “if she’s old enough to bleed, she’s old enough to breed,” which might I add, is true.
