Film Analysis

OW: Harry Potter lives among Muggles because he doesn’t know that he belongs in the Wizarding world yet. Living with his Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon Dursley is very difficult for Harry because he doesn’t get along with his relatives. Their home is not necessarily his “safe haven,” but it is his living quarters to where he lives for quite some time.

Call: Hagrid unexpectedly pops by to welcome Harry into Hogwarts; the wizaring world. This is where his adventure begins.

Refusal: Harry’s aunt and uncle make it very hard for him to leave his home. They lock him in a closet and try all that they can to make him stay put.

Mentor: Harry’s mentor is Dumbledore. Since his parents died he tends to confide in him for everything because he trusts him.

Threshold: Voldemort is fully committed to killing Harry Potter. Once this is established Harry is fully committed to protecting himself and Hogwarts.

Tests, allies, enemies: He is confronted by Voldemort, death eaters, betrayal of friends, and dark forces against him.

Approach: Harry is able to see a map that shows where everyone is walking within the castle.

Ordeal: One of the professors is carrying Voldemort on the back of his head. Harry becomes trapped by him and has to fight his way free. He almost dies.

Reward: Harry survives death but Voldemort still lives.

The Road Back: For summer, Harry returns to his Aunt and Uncles place once again.

Resurrection: He is constantly haunted by the idea of Voldemort still being alive. He knows that he will strike again.

Return with Elixir: Harry is somewhat of a “hero” and will be able to return to Hogwarts the following year.

BLURBS

You should've killed me when you had the chance:
He found love. But now he’s alone. Of course he wants her back, but will she come running back? Often, it’s not that easy; easier said then done. Instead of working things out or moving on, he pulls out the gun and ends her life. Her blood is splattered across the walls for all to see. He is racked with guilt.

99 Red Balloons:
What’s more romantic than a man releasing 99 red balloons into the sky for you? I don’t think it gets much better than that. They float by in the summer sky. As they pass, war goes on. Nothing makes the balloons stop. People stop and stare. 

Lyrics and Five Elements:
Relationships are very difficult. It's as simple as that. When the dude moves to the West Coast he realizes that he was the one at fault. Now it's too late....

Love the way you lie:
This lady is in much pain. She just broke up with this dude that she reall liked. She feels like nothing she does is right and there is nothing she can do about this situation. The dude starts to feel the guilt. He realizes that there is so much he could have done differently.
Love Story:
Romeo and Juliet love each other and want to be together. So they decide to sneak out to see each other because no way in heck would Juliet's father approve of Romeo. They meet on the outskirts of town. Finally they have permission to marry. LOVE.

50

This lady is perfect. She is everything that this dude wants. Everything about her makes him go insane and he thinks about her all the time. He has dreams that he wants everyone to hear. After meeting, he will never be the same. She makes his dreams come true.

Impulse II

A man and woman at the train station- Walter and Annette.

M- Why are you leaving, again?

W- The fact that you have already forgotten is ludicrous.

M- I just don't understand. I thought you were happy?

W- Don't give me this Walter. You know, as well as I know that I've never been happy.

M- Waaawaahhhhat?

W- Yes. I mean what I said.

M- Annette. Calm down for a brief moment!

W- NO!!! You always do this Walter! You act as if I'm a child! I can think for myself!

M- Of course you can Annette.

W- NO!!! You always agree with me!

M- I know Annette.

W- STOP! STOP. STOP.

M- Annette, let's just go home.

W- Walter. You don’t understand. I am NOT going home with you! This isn’t going to work out.

M- Wait. Are you serious? You’re just going to stay here instead of boarding the train with me???

W- Sure. I’m okay with that. If you don’t have the decency to make sure I’m safe and sound before we part, then I’m now absolutely positive that you are not the man for me. Thank you. You’ve helped narrow down my decision. Good bye forever, dear. (Annette saunters into the distance)

M- Wow. This is CRAZY! Come back Annette!

(Annette never looks back and Walter never runs after her)

Bad Poetry - Rappin' it out

My mader killed my fader
And my fader used a knife
Run run run
She lived

Then came the children all covered in snow
From head to toe
We seek for peace
When there is no more to lease

Ya gotta have confidence
If you want some happiness
So go back to mader and fader
They're callin' ya

DIRECT ORDERS

You have direct orders to rock out ya fool. 
Rock out like the sun is melting crimson
Rock out like a goose just laid a golden egg
Rock out like a buff man on steroids
Rock out like you just won American Idol
Rock out like a girl that has been asked out this weekend
Rock out like a pig that just got fed
Rock out like you got a 5 on the AP test
Rock out like a mother that just birthed a babe
Rock out like a father that witnessed a miracle
Rock out like Led Zeppelin on fire
Rock out like a baby with a fresh diaper
Rock out like a high druggie
Rock out like a seagull with some grub
Rock out like a graduated senior
Rock out like you’ve just had your first kiss
Rock out like you just won a ticket to Paris
Rock out like your garden just grew over night
Rock out like you just lassoed the moon
Rock out like there is no tomorrow 

SHAKE THE DUST

This is for the buck-toothed Billy’s.This is for the legless.This is for the freaks. SHAKE THE DUST This is for the weeping men of war.This is for the children that are scared of monsters and can’t sleep each night.This is for the hungry.SHAKE THE DUST This is for the Micheal Jackson fans.This is for the mother with a miscarriage.This is for the loss of a loved one.SHAKE THE DUST This is for the addicts.This is for the killers.This is for the ones that are dying— just out of reach— barely barely…everything out of their control.This is for the obese that can barely walk. SHAKE THE DUST This is for the jerks that need a boost of confidence.This is for the people without a match in life.This is for the homeless.SHAKE THE DUST
This is for the daydreamers.
This is for the peacemakers.
This is for the star gazers.
This is for the sky-divers.
SHAKE THE DUST
This is for the teenagers struggling through high school.This is for the drug lords that’ll never stop dealin’.
SHAKE THE DUST
...........right of your shoulders. Remember each and every day that you are someone. No matter what, you can be anything you want to be.

I'm thinking about you...

I'm thinking about you. I'm thinking about you like a rapper thinks about his do rag. Like a hippie thinks about their LSD. I'm thinking about you like a man of girth thinks about football. Like fat women think about side-burns. I'm thinking about you like idiots think about video games. Like the sun thinks about the moon. I'm thinking about you like an apple thinks about its infestation of worms. Like candy thinks about giddy chilren. I'm thinking about you like a gem in a mine. Like a fat chick thinks about chocolate cake. I'm thinking about you like a predator thinks about their prey. Like faces think about expressions.

I'm thinking about you all the time. Even when I don't think I am.





Love is...

10. Love is a bee... sometimes it stings.
9. Love is a bouncy ball... has ups and downs.
8. Love is a calculator... sometimes the math just doesn't work out.
7. Love is a white flag.
6. Love is a plague.
5. Love is a bucket of paint... colors the world and sometimes stinks.
4. Love is a leaf... eventually falls from the tree.
3. Love is a constant knife to the arteries.
2. Love is a shoe... can't have one with out the other.
1. Love is a beard...they're just so attractive.

Introduction

Hello there. The pen name I have created is Maple Bowen.
Chhya. Snazy name, eh?
Alrighty.
I took this creative writing class for a couple reasons. Firstly, I actually do enjoy writing once in a while. It really just depends whether I'm in the mood and all that jazz. Sometimes I'm creative. SUPRISE. Second, at the last minute I found out that I needed another english credit. So here I am- in this creative writing class creating a blog. I never thought I'd see the day.

I guess I should say some things about me now.
So, I like...
*To paint
*Drawing
*Photography
*Writing poetry
*Drinking dr. pepper
*Dancing in the rain
*Watching horror movies
*Eating nutella
*Biking
*Sleeping

EPIC.
