Hawthorne High School is public school located in Hawthorne California. It was established in the mid 1950s. I think highly of this school because it’s known for the famous people who attend there. It may seem to you like any other school but knowing that many famous people went to this school may change your mind once you know who attended to Hawthorne High.
In 1961, the Beach Boys graduated from Hawthorne High, and that’s when they gathered all together to sing harmony songs. As soon as they heard their songs where being played in the radio, that’s when they named themselves the Beach Boys because before that; they were called the Pendletons. In 1962 Al Jardine left the group because he preferred continuing his studies in El Camino College. Therefore he was replaced by David Marks, but only for two years because in July 1963 Al came back. Since 1963- 2006 The Beach Boy’s had great success in their group and they will always be remembered by all their fans and Hawthorne California.
Chris Montez was another famous singer who attended Hawthorne High. He graduated in 1961 with the Beach Boys. He made his first single when he was seventeen which was “She’s my Rockin’ Baby”. After the death of Ritchie Valens, Chris Montez was the leading rocker to the Hispanic society. His top song was “Lets Dance” and from there on Montez started his famous career. Even though he had difficulty with the racism because back then there where many problems in Hawthorne California. They where trying to make segregation in the school wanting all Hispanics and African- Americans out.
Greg Hetson of Bad Religion is included in this list. He’s an American Guitarist who started in 1979. And is best known for the influential of hardcore punk bands like Redd Kross, Circle Jerks, and Bad Religion. In 1980 Greg Hetson left his position as a guitarist in the band the Redd Kross to form The Circle Jerks. They toured all around the U.S making fans and selling their albums. Bad Religion had pause their career for then Hetson was not spending much time with them, but as soon as they began singing their best song Hetson had return to play with them.
Ted Coombs another famous person who attended Hawthorne High. Coombs graduated in 1972. In late 1972, Ted inlisted in the US Navy, and he was there several years. After he was released from the Navy Ted went back to California. In February 1975 he began studying music in El Camino College in Torrance California he was known as one of the gifted vocalist and being able to play the piano. In early 1979 Ted lived in Hermosa Beach and one day when he was practicing roller-skating he though that he would like to skate across the USA to protest the 1979 energy crisis. He remembered that Clinton Shaw has done that already so he wants to beat him by doing more than what he had done. Ted Coombs did a lot in his life, and for doing all this he is remembered in Hawthorne High.
There for many famous people that when to Hawthorne high and even tough when you see pictures of the school you see that is not fancy at all. But you need to make the research because you never know what you could find if you don’t research it. There where more famous people for example the band “Dios Malos, Wasted youth, Silent range but I wasn’t able to find enough information on them for me to be able to tell you a little more about their lives. For then I’ve based my research on the people above.

romanticism part 3
The point of this poem is how the man is imagining all different types of ways a rope could be used to distract him self from work.The images that stand out to me is when he is comparing people to spiders, squares of sunshine on the floor, and like white doves upon the wing.Rope walk is a good example of Romanticism because you have to use your imagination to go along with him and visualize what he is imagining. Also how this person is using his imagination to distract himself and not get bored.

Romanticism part 4
This picture is an example of Romanticism beacuse it makes you want to use your imagination to imagine yourself in one of those boats relaxing watching the sunset go down, noticing that the waves of the sea are really calmed and everything in here is just perfect. It's very easy to see why this picture is known as romanticism, just think it this way, it's not every day you see something like this.
American Romanticism part 2
I think that the poem Thanatopsis is focusing in making death not sound as bad as people think. Thanatopsis is saying that if you shouldn't be scared of death, you need to open your imagination so you can be able to talk and enjoy mother nature. Indeed when your in a park and feel lonely think in the people that have been buried there,their making you company so after all your not alone. And once your dead don't think that your not going to see anyone anymore because we all have to die some day and when we do were all are going to the same place. so soon where going to be together. For then Thanatopsis is focusing in making death sound good.

American Romanticism part 1
example 1:When Rip Van Winkle is walking up in the the mountains with his dog he hears his name being called and doesn't know who it is because he couldn't think of what kind of person will be walking their when the sun is about to go down. When he sees these weird looking fellows that I assume their elf's, where drinking some kind of liquor that Van Winkle wanted to try. When the elf's gave him some to try Van Winkle slowly lay in the ground and fell in to a deep sleep.This is an example of Romanticism because their is no thing like magic potions or liquor, for then I have to open my imagination to be able to understand what is going on in the story.
example 2: Another example is when Rip Van Winkle is describing the Kaatskill mountains;Every change of season, every change of weather, indeed every hour of the day, produces some change in the magical hues and shapes of these mountains, and they are regarded by all the good wives, far and near, as perfect
barometers. When the weather is fair and settled, they are clothed in blue
and purple, and print their bold outlines on the clear evening sky; but
sometimes, when the rest of the landscape is cloudless, they will gather a
hood of gray vapors about their summits, which, in the last rays of the
setting sun, will glow and light up like a crown of glory. this is an example of romanticism because he is describing nature. For many people had never seen places like the ones they describe. because their nature was durty and nothing compare to what Rip Van Winkle is describing.

Autobiography
Benjamin Franklin is a good example of rationalist for several reasons. Franklin says that he is in control of what he is or does. For example he made a list of all thinks he didn't like about himself so little by little he will change and that will make him a better person. Just like the rationalist they say that God made earth for them to live and so they will make the laws of the world because God wasn't able to speak to people nor change them.

Differences between Puritans and Rationalist
The difference between the Puritans and the Rationalists is very easy to explain they're believes are truly the opposites. Puritans believes are very understanable because they don't mix their religion with science. Rationalist does not believe that God has power nor they believe that he gave the world rules that they need to acomplish for them to be abale to go to heaven.Now in day the Puritans remember me of the religion christian because they believe that God tranfer his power in his son's so their able to do his will here in earth. Rationalist could be more compare to scientist in this world that say that God did not created the human , that we come from ancestors of the monkey.
The difficulty of being a teen mom
Becoming a mom could be every woman’s dream, but life as a teen could be the start of an unexpected lifestyle. Having your body change in so many different ways, knowing what to do once your baby has arrived and making sure that you learn how to care for them is very complicated. Having to learn how to be independent and letting your parents go and making time to be a mom, student and employee is the hardest thing to do.
Having your body changing can be very difficult. The weight could be one of the major things that happen. The belly you have when you’re ready to give labor is just so big that then you have to depend on someone’s help to stand or sit. The pain you go through when it’s happening because your body wasn’t ready to make the big change is a frustrating semester. Getting prepared for labor so you know what to expect and not freak out was more complicated than what I thought. Also after labor mothers must wait for their bones to get back the way they were to keep on with life.
It’s most likely that any teen mom has no idea what to do once baby has arrived. The diaper changing, burping, and especially when they get sick is exasperating. Thinking that the hard part has ended, I realize it just started. Having to be your own trainer to learn step by step what to expect with your baby. Babies come with so many surprises that it’s stressful when you can’t get the hang of it. We moms just have to get our own experiences to learn and when next time comes we will mostly know how to get the hang of it.
Becoming independent is painful. When mom and dad tell you that you’re a parent and you have to solve your problems on your own, is hard because it’s probably the time when you expect them to be there at all times. But I guess that’s just the path that we’ve chosen and we need to get the points that now we are parents. Having to make medical appointments, making sure that you’re paying all your debts, and having to figure out what to do so you can give your baby everything he needs is stressful. It’s a period of time when you understand how hard life is. Eventually getting mom and dad out of the picture and knowing they can’t do anything for you anymore is a dreadful time you need to confront.
Being a mom, student and employee is the hardest thing I ever heard of. It’s one person doing three jobs at a time. As a mom you need to clean, cook, wash, and keeping up with your child’s timing of eating especially if they’re still infants. Having to change from mom to student is stressful because I have to make sure you’ve left your child with someone you are able to trust, and knowing that when you’re in class you need to work your hardest to graduate and let everyone who criticized you know that you’re able to make it even though you’re a mom. Moving from student to employee is also difficult because now you know that all that time you’re there is to gain money to be able to buy clothes and toys for your little one because focusing on giving your child a better life gives you the strength to continue and never stop.
Being a teen mom is difficult and I’ve giving you some examples so you analyze and know that there is many girls out there that are experiences the same thing I am. But knowing that you have someone at home waiting for you and depending that you’re coming home with many little gifts is the major thing that gives you all the strength you need in this life to go on.

direct textual evidence
TOTAL DEPRAVITY: through Adam's and eve's fall, every person in born sinful-concept of original sin. I found the direct textual in the video."total depravity or original sin Because of Adam and eve.. puritans believed everyone was born sinner.
PERSEVERANCE OF THE "SAINTS-those elected by God have full power to interpret the will of God, and to live uprightly. If anyone rejects grace after feeling its power in his life, he will be going against the will of God - Something impossible on Puritanism. I found textual evidence in the Plymouth plantation." a special instrument sent of God for their good beyond their expectation.

The hands of angry god and of plymouth plantation
In the Plymouth plantation:People live very honest to their believes they thought God had send us all human being to earth to pay for Adam's and eve's sin, and his faithful mercy will be only for several people. Their imagination in heaven and hell where unexplainable, there were many things I just didn't agree on. A mysterious God that no one had ever seen or knew was their leader the one who speak and let them know his will and what he wanted from every individual. It's really amazing how God speaks to them and share's his toughs .
The Plymouth plantation remembers me of my family, Their Christians and they have about the same believes and thoughts as the Puritans.
Their society was very independent , they were like a small family they knew everybody and had something special that will unite all of them. They knew that they were able to trust on the people that were in the path of god for ex:"Squanto continued with them and was their interpreter and was a special instrument sent of God for their good beyond their expectation" so Squanto was send from gos to make treaty with the Indians.Indeed i think that is awesome , being send by God to do something that will change the lives of lots of people. I will love to experience something like what Squanto did.
new Governor, first marriage: When i read this section I was surprise in how so many people could be affected by the death of a governor."Whose death was much lamented and caused great heaviness amongst them, as there was cause. And his wife, being a weak woman, died within five or six weeks after him. " This lady had to really love her husband to die after he did it's confusing cause i still don't understand how she died. in the first marriage i was kind of confuse in how it was celebrate, it didn't sound like a wedding it sound more like a small get together.
First harvest & private communal farming:In their first harvest they had really good luck with the fishing. They had no worries because their where enough fishes for the whole valley. It must hard having to eat fish about every day i know i wouldn't be able to handle something like that.When they started the communal farming it must had been hard for every family to be on their own.Having to struggle to get all the family to help even the little ones."The women now went willingly into the field, and took their little ones with them to set corn." When time past the government has the idea of uniting all men and young boys to work in farming so they will sell the cops and make money. " Plato's and other ancients applauded by some of later times; and that the taking away of property and bringing in community into a commonwealth would make them happy and flourishing."unbelievable how a the valley has to obey the government even thou it's affecting their family. But not only did they make the man work but they made their wife's do all the chore's for other man. It's sad how god let many people suffer you could say their where their slaves." And for men's wives to be commanded to do service for other men, as dressing their meat, washing their clothes, etc., they deemed it a kind of slavery.

Puratin's believe (1)
The Puritan's had a believe that God has made this earth with many people, but not all will go to heaven. Many of us have the right to choose from good and bad, but when God decides on leaving you apart eventually you will be send to hell. When God send Jesus to earth he was send to be sacrifice only for those who would go to heaven. The meaning of his death is for mercy, but remember not all will receive it. For then all people will have to decide what they want grace or hell.
God is omnipotent and he reveals it by letting the chosen ones use certain type of power for him to be able to reveal what he wants from every individual person. The power of God cannot be rejected because that will be an example of you not wanting God to do his will here in earth. But eventually the Puritan's believe that is something impossible for them to experience.
