Similes and Metaphors in Songs.



Juice Wrld - Lucid Dreams

Metaphor



I still see your shadows in my room
                                                    Can't take back the love that I gave you
                                                    It's to the point where I love and I hate you
                                                 And I cannot change you, so I must replace you, oh
                                                Easier said than done, I thought you were the one
                                                Listenin' to my heart instead of my head

Meaning

I still see your shadows in my room.
Wherever he looks reminds him of his ex.

Simile

Dance with my dogs in the nighttime (yeah, woo, woo, woo, roof)
In the kitchen, wrist twistin’ like a stir fry (whip it)

KOBE BRYANT'S DEATH (IMPACT)


A recent news item that caught my attention was the sad passing of Kobe Bryant. The NBA legend died in a tragic helicopter crash along with his beloved daughter Gianna Bryant. The helicopter crashed into a rugged terrain in Calabasas, California. It still hasn't been discovered how the helicopter came crashing down. There were nine people inside the aircraft including Kobe and his daughter Gigi.

This piqued my interest because Kobe inspired millions of people around the globe and his death was so sudden it shook the whole basketball world. This impacted a lot of basketball players because Kobe was the reason they started to enjoy watching and playing the game. Another reason this caught my interest was that I wanted to see how people reacted to his death. I know that sounds really sad when I say it that way but I mean no disrespect. I wanted to see how his death would affect not just the basketball community but the whole world.

This was a huge impact on the world because Kobe was one of the players that revolutionized the game of Basketball. I'll say once again he was the reason most people got into basketball. This was such a huge impact because Kobe was the bridge from the Michael Jordan era until the likes of Lebron James, Kevin Durant, and Steph Curry showed up. Maybe Shaquille O'Neal was more dominant in the courts and Tim Duncan provided a more consistent foundation for championships, but Kobe's greatness and popularity made him the most important for both the fans and the next generation of players that followed his footsteps into the NBA. After Michael Jordan retired Kobe was the next MJ. Some kids didn't know Michael Jordan at all in their world they only knew of Kobe. Paul George didn't know much about MJ but in his eyes Kobe was His Jordan. Kobe was the person that was going to link Michael Jordan's teaching to the new generation just like how he once drew inspiration from MJ. The other Legacy Bryant carried from Jordan was TV appeal. That meant sellouts in the Staples Centre and a gigantic local TV rights for the Lakers. That's how much Kobe impacted the Basketball Community and the world.

Kobe's death made me think about my life and what I still haven't done. He makes me want live my life to the fullest with no regrets. I'm going to try and have that Mamba Mentality. I'm going to have the impact, the mentality, the aggression, and the work ethic that he had.

An Ideal World

In an ideal world in my head, superpowers would be cool. To elaborate even further I would want everyone to have a quirk just like in My Hero Academia. Just think how cool would it be if you had superhuman abilities. You could fly, teleport, have super strength, or even have the power to summon an animal body part from the food you just ate. In my ideal world, I would want to have the quirk One For All just like the main character, not because of its power but because I want to train and try my hardest to control it. I know what you're thinking if everyone has quirks, there are bound to be people who are going to use their quirk for their own selfish evil ways, but just think about it wouldn't it be boring if everyone was good. Villains would make the world more interesting don't you think. Also, the reason I want villains in the story so that people could be heroes in their own stories. You know what they say everyone is a hero in their own story.

Windracers


                 In science, we were asked to design our very own wind racers as a group.


                                                                          Design

Since the vehicle was already given to us by our teacher. All we had to do was design the sail. So my group decided to make our sail triangle shaped.  We made an M shaped hole in our sail to symbolize the name of our wind racer which was the Moromobile. Our group's sail was second fastest.

                                         Redesign


     We added some cardboard and made more meters that way.
