I give thanks to....

First of all, I want confer thanks because this semester is finally over. All the works and all the stress is going to be done in a couple of days. I give thanks because of the affabily family and friends I have, they are the ones who help me immediately everytime I get in a struggle situation. I give thanks to the things I have and can appreciate because I know they are people living in really bad conditions. Also I give thanks that I'm finally in the twelve grade and that I'm really close to finally ending my high school road. I give thanks for some of the teachers I have, who are capacious and who help me when I don't understand something and will give their free time to help me. Finally, I give thanks to everything that compones me because every little fervent aspect that is in my life is what has made me who I am today.

Pumped up kicks

     Robert is an allusion to a mass murderer, but doesn’t refer to any specific Robert. The name is a metaphor for any kid about to explode with anger. His dad is neglectful and probably violent and abusive. His mom is not mentioned so she is probably dead. Robert has avert himself from society in general. He’s the lone cowboy whistling as he rides along.  He realizes he has lost his reason. The kids with the pumped up kicks are those whose lives are all together and are capacious. s extremely envious of them and has directed his animosity toward his dad upon them. They better run cause he’s got a gun. The tone of the song is sided against the sullen lyrics mirrors what often occurs in this type of individual. Everything on the outside is fine, but within something is about to obstruse.
