The United Fruit Co. by Pablo Neruda


When the trumpet sounded, it was 
all prepared on the earth, 
the Jehovah parceled out the earth 
to Coca Cola, Inc., Anaconda, 
Ford Motors, and other entities: 
The Fruit Company, Inc. 
reserved for itself the most succulent, 
the central coast of my own land, 
the delicate waist of America. 
It rechristened its territories 
as the ’Banana Republics’ 
and over the sleeping dead, 
over the restless heroes 
who brought about the greatness, the liberty and the flags, 
it established the comic opera: 
abolished the independencies, 
presented 
crowns of Caesar, 
unsheathed envy, attracted 
the dictatorship of the flies, 
Trujillo flies, Tacho flies, 
Carias flies, Martines flies, 
Ubico flies, damp flies 
of modest blood and marmalade, 
drunken flies who zoom 
over the ordinary graves, 
circus flies, wise flies 
well trained in tyranny.

Among the blood-thirsty flies 
the Fruit Company lands its ships, 
taking off the coffee and the fruit; 
the treasure of our submerged 
territories flow as though 
on plates into the ships.

Meanwhile Indians are falling 
into the sugared chasms 
of the harbors, wrapped 
for burials in the mist of the dawn: 
a body rolls, a thing 
that has no name, a fallen cipher, 
a cluster of the dead fruit 
thrown down on the dump. 

Critic:
In this literary piece, I observe that it was a Marxism wherein it tells us the economic and socio-political of our world especially nowadays. As we observe it, it gives us the idea of how the world was changed because of the development was really happening. The Marxism tells us that the economic activities in order to provide the needs of human became the basis of the majority like social relations, morality and ideology and a lot more. This poem tells us that there is a contradiction with what development happening on this world. It tells us that because of the company and factory arises, it gives us the idea to be materialistic and be greedy with money. Money became the main source of manipulating one person and that was really happening now. The author of this poem was contradicting with the manipulation of the company in running our world. We are now depending on them and not in our own success.

Richard Cory By Edwin Arlington Robinson



Whenever Richard Cory went down town,
We people on the pavement looked at him:
He was a gentleman from sole to crown,
Clean favored, and imperially slim.

And he was always quietly arrayed,
And he was always human when he talked;
But still he fluttered pulses when he said,
"Good-morning," and he glittered when he walked.

And he was richyes, richer than a king
And admirably schooled in every grace:
In fine, we thought that he was everything
To make us wish that we were in his place.

So on we worked, and waited for the light,
And went without the meat, and cursed the bread;
And Richard Cory, one calm summer night,
Went home and put a bullet through his head.


Critic:
This literary piece was classified as a narrative poem. This literary piece was observably as deconstruction theory. When we say deconstruction, there is nothing outside the text. The text really interprets what is really the scene or happening at the real setting; as it says, there is a reality at the text as a reader knows it. As you observe the poem, it tells us that there is perfectness in the life of the character here. It tells us that he is richer than a king… and yet, at the end of the lines, it tells us that behind that wealth that he has, he still didn’t feel the real joy of life that is why he takes his own life. The sense of this poem really happening on the present situation. It was observably in the society that wealth cannot buy the satisfaction of a real joy can bring.


The Last Judgment by Karel Čapek



The notorious multiple-killer Kugler, pursued by several warrants and a whole army of policemen and detectives, swore that he’d never be taken. He wasn’t either – at least not alive. The last of his nine murderous deeds was shooting a policeman who tried to arrest him. The policeman indeed died, but not before putting a total of seven bullets into Kugler. Of these seven, three were fatal. Kugler’s death came so quickly that he felt no pain. And so it seemed Kugler had escaped earthly justice.
When his soul left his body, it should have been surprised at the sight of the next world – a world beyond space, grey, and infinitely desolate – but it wasn’t. A man who has been jailed on two continents looks upon the next life merely as new surroundings. Kugler expected to struggle through, equipped only with a bit of courage, as he had in the last world.
At length the inevitable Last Judgment got around to Kugler. The judges were old and worthy councilors with austere, bored faces. Kugler complied with the usual tedious formalities: Ferdinand Kugler, unemployed, born on such and such a date, died… at this point it was shown Kugler didn’t know the date of his own death. Immediately he realized this was a damaging omission in the eyes of the judges; his spirit of helpfulness faded.
“Do you plead guilty or not guilty?” asked the presiding judge.
“Not guilty,” said Kugler obdurately.
“Bring in the first witness,” the judge sighed.
Opposite Kugler appeared an extraordinary gentleman, stately, bearded, and clothed in a blue robe strewn with golden stars.
At his entrance, the judges arose. Even Kugler stood up, reluctant but fascinated. Only when the old gentleman took a seat did the judges again sit down.
“Witness,” began the presiding judge, “omniscient God, this court has summoned you in order to hear your testimony in the case against Kugler, Ferdinand. As you are the supreme truth, you need not take the oath. In the interest of the proceedings, however, we ask you to keep to the subject at hand rather than branch out into particulars – unless they have a bearing on this case.”
“And you, Kugler, don’t interrupt the witness. He knows everything, so there’s no use denying anything.”
“And now, witness, if you would please begin.”
God, the witness, coughed lightly and began:
“Yes. Kugler, Ferdinand. Ferdinand Kugler, son of a factory worker, was a bad, unmanageable child from his earliest days. He loved his mother dearly, but was unable to show it, this made him unruly and defiant. Young man, you irked everyone! Do you remember how you bit your father on the thumb when he tried to spank you? You had stolen a rose from the notary’s garden.”
“The rose was for Irma, the tax collector’s daughter,” Kugler said.
“I know,” said God. “Irma was seven years old at that time. Did you ever hear what happened to her?”
“No, I didn’t.”
“She married Oscar, the son of the factory owner. But she contracted a venereal disease from him and died of a miscarriage. You remember Rudy Zaruba?”
“What happened to him?”
“Why, he joined the navy and died accidentally in Bombay. You two were the worst boys in the whole town. Kugler, Ferdinand, was a thief before his tenth year and an inveterate liar. He kept bad company, too: old Gribble, for instance, a drunkard and an idler, living on handouts. Nevertheless, Kugler shared many of his own meals with Gribble.”
The presiding judge motioned with his hand, as if much of this was perhaps unnecessary, but Kugler himself asked hesitantly, “And… what happened to his daughter?” “What’s she doing right now?”
“This very minute she’s buying thread at Wolfe’s. Do you remember that shop? Once, when you were six years old, you bought a colored glass marble there. On that very same day you lost it and never, never found it. Do you remember how you cried with rage?”
“Whatever happened to it?” Kugler asked eagerly.
“Well, it rolled into the drain and under the gutterspout. Right now it’s still there, after thirty years. Right now it’s raining on earth and your marble is shivering in the gush of cold water.”
Kugler bent his head, overcome by this revelation. But the presiding judge fitted his spectacles back on his nose, and said mildly, “Witness, we are obliged to get on with the case. Has the accused committed murder?”
“He murdered nine people. The first one he killed in a brawl, and it was during his prison term for his crime that he became completely corrupted. The second victim was his unfaithful sweetheart. For that he was sentenced to death, but he escaped. The third was an old man whom he robbed. The fourth was a night watchman.”
“Then he died?” Kugler asked.
“He died after three days in terrible pain,” God said. “And he left six children behind him. The fifth and sixth victims were an old married couple. He killed them with an axe and found only sixteen dollars, although they had twenty thousand hidden away.”
Kugler jumped up. “Where?”
“In the straw mattress,” God said. “In a linen sack inside the mattress. That’s where they hid all the money they acquired from greed and penny-pinching. The seventh man he killed in America, a countryman of his, a bewildered, friendless immigrant.”
“So it was in the mattress,” whispered Kugler in amazement.
“Yes,” continued God. “The eighth man was merely a passerby who happened to be in Kugler’s way when Kugler was trying to outrun the police. At that time Kugler had periostitis and was delirious from the pain. Young man, you were suffering terribly. The ninth and last was the policeman who killed Kugler exactly when Kugler shot him.”
“And why did the accused commit murder?” asked the presiding judge.
“For the same reasons others have,” answered God. “Out of anger or desire for money, both deliberately and accidentally-some with pleasure, others from necessity. However, he was generous and often helpful. He was kind to women, gentle with animals, and kept his word. Am I to mention his good deeds?”
“For the same reasons others have,” answered God. “Out of anger or desire for money, both deliberately and accidentally – some with pleasure, others from necessity. However, he was generous and often helpful. He was kind to women, gentle with animals, and kept his word. Am I to mention his good deeds?”
“Thank you,” said the presiding judge, “but it isn’t necessary. Does the accused have anything to say in his own defense?”
“No,” Kugler replied with honest indifference.
“The judges of this court will now take this matter under advisement,” declared the presiding judge, and the three of them withdrew.
Only God and Kugler remained in the courtroom.
“Who are they?” asked Kugler, indicating with his head the men who just left.
“People like you,” answered God. “They were judges on earth, so they’re judges here as well.”
Kugler nibbled his fingertips. “I expected… I mean, I never really thought about it. But I figured you would judge since…”
“Since I’m God,” finished the stately gentleman. “But that’s just it, don’t you see? Because I know everything, I can’t possibly judge. That wouldn’t do at all. By the way, do you know who turned you in this time?”
“No, I don’t,” said Kugler, surprised.
“Lucky, the waitress. She did it out of jealousy.”
“Excuse me,” Kugler ventured, “but you forgot about that good-for-nothing Teddy I shot in Chicago.”
“Not at all,” God said. “He recovered and is alive this very minute. I know he’s an informer, but otherwise he’s a very good man and terribly fond of children. You shouldn’t think of any person as being completely worthless.”
“But I still don’t understand why you aren’t the judge,” Kugler said thoughtfully.“But why are they judging… the same people who were judges on earth?”
“Because man belongs to man. As you see, I’m only the witness. But the verdict is determined by man, even in heaven. Believe me, Kugler, this is the way it should be. Man isn’t worthy of divine judgment. He deserves to be judged only by other men.”
At that moment, the three returned from their deliberation. In heavy tones the presiding judge announced, “For repeated crimes of first – degree murder, manslaughter, robbery, disrespect for the law, illegally carrying weapons, and for the theft of a rose; Kugler, Ferdinand, is sentenced to lifelong punishment in hell.
“Next case please: Torrance, Frank.”
“Is the accused present in court?”

Critic:
This is classified as a short story. The literary theory that was observed in this literary piece was hermeneutics. As we observed this story, it tells us that is really happening after your death in this world. There is really a place of what we call “final judgment” that will tell you how you spend or live your life. Some people may spend their lives in doing the things that may satisfy their flesh but in the end, it is still God who will tell if we deserve to be in heaven or hell. Like the story flow, God will stand as a witness because He knows everything of what we have done. Nothing more, nothing less… all of it was exactly of what we have done. This is how we interpret as what the bible says. In the end, we cannot hide the sins we committed and just let it pass. The bible says that at the end, all of the people in every nation will face the judgment and be place wherever we deserve. 

The Use Of Force by William Carlos Williams


They were new patients to me, all I had was the name, Olson. Please come down as soon as you can, my daughter is very sick.

When I arrived I was met by the mother, a big startled looking woman, very clean and apologetic who merely said, Is this the doctor? and let me in. In the back, she added. You must excuse us, doctor, we have her in the kitchen where it is warm. It is very damp here sometimes.

The child was fully dressed and sitting on her father's lap near the kitchen table. He tried to get up, but I motioned for him not to bother, took off my overcoat and started to look things over. I could see that they were all very nervous, eyeing me up and down distrustfully. As often, in such cases, they weren't telling me more than they had to, it was up to me to tell them; that's why they were spending three dollars on me.

The child was fairly eating me up with her cold, steady eyes, and no expression to her face whatever. She did not move and seemed, inwardly, quiet; an unusually attractive little thing, and as strong as a heifer in appearance. But her face was flushed, she was breathing rapidly, and I realized that she had a high fever. She had magnificent blonde hair, in profusion. One of those picture children often reproduced in advertising leaflets and the photogravure sections of the Sunday papers.

She's had a fever for three days, began the father and we don't know what it comes from. My wife has given her things, you know, like people do, but it don't do no good. And there's been a lot of sickness around. So we tho't you'd better look her over and tell us what is the matter.

As doctors often do I took a trial shot at it as a point of departure. Has she had a sore throat?

Both parents answered me together, No . . . No, she says her throat don't hurt her.

Does your throat hurt you? added the mother to the child. But the little girl's expression didn't change nor did she move her eyes from my face.

Have you looked?

I tried to, said the mother, but I couldn't see.

As it happens we had been having a number of cases of diphtheria in the school to which this child went during that month and we were all, quite apparently, thinking of that, though no one had as yet spoken of the thing.

Well, I said, suppose we take a look at the throat first. I smiled in my best professional manner and asking for the child's first name I said, come on, Mathilda, open your mouth and let's take a look at your throat.

Nothing doing.

Aw, come on, I coaxed, just open your mouth wide and let me take a look. Look, I said opening both hands wide, I haven't anything in my hands. Just open up and let me see.

Such a nice man, put in the mother. Look how kind he is to you. Come on, do what he tells you to. He won't hurt you.

At that I ground my teeth in disgust. If only they wouldn't use the word "hurt" I might be able to get somewhere. But I did not allow myself to be hurried or disturbed but speaking quietly and slowly I approached the child again.

As I moved my chair a little nearer suddenly with one catlike movement both her hands clawed instinctively for my eyes and she almost reached them too. In fact she knocked my glasses flying and they fell, though unbroken, several feet away from me on the kitchen floor.

Both the mother and father almost turned themselves inside out in embarrassment and apology. You bad girl, said the mother, taking her and shaking her by one arm. Look what you've done. The nice man . . .

For heaven's sake, I broke in. Don't call me a nice man to her. I'm here to look at her throat on the chance that she might have diphtheria and possibly die of it. But that's nothing to her. Look here, I said to the child, we're going to look at your throat. You're old enough to understand what I'm saying. Will you open it now by yourself or shall we have to open it for you)

Not a move. Even her expression hadn't changed. Her breaths however were coming faster and faster. Then the battle began. I had to do it. I had to have a throat culture for her own protection. But first I told the parents that it was entirely up to them. I explained the danger but said that I would not insist on a throat examination so long as they would take the responsibility.

If you don't do what the doctor says you'll have to go to the hospital, the mother admonished her severely.

Oh yeah? I had to smile to myself. After all, I had already fallen in love with the savage brat, the parents were contemptible to me. In the ensuing struggle they grew more and more abject, crushed, exhausted while she surely rose to magnificent heights of insane fury of effort bred of her terror of me.

The father tried his best, and he was a big man but the fact that she was his daughter, his shame at her behavior and his dread of hurting her made him release her just at the critical times when I had almost achieved success, till I wanted to kill him. But his dread also that she might have diphtheria made him tell me to go on, go on though he himself was almost fainting, while the mother moved back and forth behind us raising and lowering her hands in an agony of apprehension.

Put her in front of you on your lap, I ordered, and hold both her wrists.

But as soon as he did the child let out a scream. Don't, you're hurting me. Let go of my hands. Let them go I tell you. Then she shrieked terrifyingly, hysterically. Stop it! Stop it! You're killing me!
    
Do you think she can stand it, doctor! said the mother.

You get out, said the husband to his wife. Do you want her to die of diphtheria?

Come on now, hold her, I said.

Then I grasped the child's head with my left hand and tried to get the wooden tongue depressor between her teeth. She fought, with clenched teeth, desperately! But now I also had grown furious--at a child. I tried to hold myself down but I couldn't. I know how to expose a throat for inspection. And I did my best. When finally I got the wooden spatula behind the last teeth and just the point of it into the mouth cavity, she opened up for an instant but before I could see anything she came down again and gripping the wooden blade between her molars she reduced it to splinters before I could get it out again.

Aren't you ashamed, the mother yelled at her. Aren't you ashamed to act like that in front of the doctor?

Get me a smooth-handled spoon of some sort, I told the mother. We're going through with this. The child's mouth was already bleeding. Her tongue was cut and she was screaming in wild hysterical shrieks. Perhaps I should have desisted and come back in an hour or more. No doubt it would have been better. But I have seen at least two children lying dead in bed of neglect in such cases, and feeling that I must get a diagnosis now or never I went at it again. But the worst of it was that I too had got beyond reason. I could have torn the child apart in my own fury and enjoyed it. It was a pleasure to attack her. My face was burning with it.

The damned little brat must be protected against her own idiocy, one says to one's self at such times. Others must be protected against her. It is a social necessity. And all these things are true. But a blind fury, a feeling of adult shame, bred of a longing for muscular release are the operatives. One goes on to the end.

In a final unreasoning assault I overpowered the child's neck and jaws. I forced the heavy silver spoon back of her teeth and down her throat till she gagged. And there it was--both tonsils covered with membrane. She had fought valiantly to keep me from knowing her secret. She had been hiding that sore throat for three days at least and lying to her parents in order to escape just such an outcome as this.

Now truly she was furious. She had been on the defensive before but now she attacked. Tried to get off her father's lap and fly at me while tears of defeat blinded her eyes. 




Critic:
The genre of this literary piece is short story. The theory that suits in this literary piece was psychoanalytic theory. As you see, one of the natures of psychoanalysis is about human behavior. The human behavior of the child that was narrated in this story is that she tried to keep the disease that she had. One of the reasons maybe is that, the child knew that the disease that she possessed was caused of death of many children in their town. We know that it is the initial reaction of the child especially if he or she doesn’t know what’s really on going. As the reaction of the doctor, he tried to save the life of the child that he is unconsciously hurting the child physically because he was more focuses on saving the child. Also, to further discuss the psychoanalysis, one is the interpersonal psychoanalysis which tells us that particularly one of its nature is to protect themselves from anxiety be establishing interactions with others. The child is trying to be on his father’s arm to feel his cover that she didn’t want to be left alone. The nature of a child was shown in the story. 

Team Building: Drive to Strive


Feb. 10, 2012
We arrived at PUP exactly 5:30 in the morning. I was still sleepy at that time but I sense that the people around me were very excited for that day. I asked myself, “What did these people expecting on this team building?” I just find out that I already answering my own question. “I guess…” I continued, “the place was really good. It’s just happen that we are on the resort so most of the activities are related to waters.” My classmate also gave me some of her perceptions too. “maybe… but im hoping that they (facilitators) give us more time in swimming than their activities… I want to enjoy my day!!!” she exclaimed. Watching her… I also tend to laugh. I also want to enjoy my day. Next week, Monday, is my defense…I don’t want to put myself in the deepest part of depression because of that defense. Though, I admit that I was so pre-occupied that time, still I condition myself that I have to enjoy myself, alone or not.
We are already on the bus. I was separated to my best friend because we are divided into our certain groups. Honestly, I didn’t feel my group. We are only 2 in our group because most of our team mates were from other course like BS math and BS-ed Social from different year level. We also have the same course there but they are from lower year.  As I see my group mates, I notice that my classmate and I were the older people there. The moment that they need to choose who will be the leader, they (my group mates) push us to be the leaders. I ask my classmate to volunteer herself to be the leader, I promised her that I will support her in everything she do. She agreed so we let her lead us.
The orientation was already started. They gave us the plan of activities that we need to accomplish by the settled time limit. We plan the things that we have to do and we told each other that we didn’t need to be super competitive, that it will come to a point that they have to fight on us. The main goal that we have was enjoy ourselves, just do everything with unity, cooperation and know each other very well. We were not going there to fight for our own name but rather, we have to think that whoever will be the winner, we have to be happy with them because we were only carrying one name, “Mentor Society”.
Before the game started, Maam Celeste gave us some of her thought in life that really helps us as a future educator. We really enjoyed her teaching because she knew how to cope with the young people. The words her using caught our attention. I notice that even though she had a low voice, most of us were interested to hear what are the things that she is going to say. She also didn’t want to be a teacher before, it was just an accident that no one was on the line to education department so she just try it. As her years in the PUP past, she learned to embrace that course and right now, she was already a successful professor. She is the president of the Alumni. Honestly, I thought myself that she was an extraordinary person and I guess it would be hard for me to have that kind of journey. But she told us that “as a man thinketh, so is he” meaning it depends on us how we think ourselves. I realized that nothing in life can keep us down except our own thinking. If we want a high quality of life, we must have a high quality of thought. I just see myself smiling. I hope that no one was watching at me that time. =)
As the game started, we first take the activity wherein we have to be blindfold then, we were holding one cup. We need to pass the water until the 1.5lit. of coke be filled. Honestly, it was hard to do that because compare with the other group which only have 13-15 members, we were 18 in the group so the tendency is that, it will take too long before and many water be wasted before we reach the bottle.  Before the time was over, we only filled half of it. The next game we had was we have a styrocup then there was a tissue inside of it. We need to pass it over to the next side of the pool. The problem that we had here was, the wave made it moved side by side. There is a possibility that anytime, it may touch the water so the tissue inside of it may be wet. We must not touch it so only by blowing; we made it pass to the next pool. The next is the station wherein the other member must stay in the station of the tree then they have to be on the starting point by carrying. Those people were called patience, and then the people who will carry those people called ambulance. We planned that only girls must be on the station and act as the patience then the boys will be the ambulance. It was good to see that most of my group mates were really cooperative. Some of our girls helped the boys to carry the girls who have a high body weight. We finish that game easily. The next is the rope tying were we have to tie the plastic rope on our knees in a group that no one must be get out of it. The hard part here was the tie did not reach our knees that we need to really hold it. The facilitator did not notice it so as the game was on going, he thought that we were not following the rules so he said that we were disqualified. Some of my mates were really mad, but on my part, it was okay. It didn’t make any sense anymore if we got mad or what because we were already disqualified. I just told my other mates that we need to move forward for the other games. Then, the next that we have was the mat wherein we need to get inside of it then we have to fold it into three. The facilitator told us that the other group did make it but what about us? We are 18 in the group and it was really impossible to fold that small mat into three. We didn’t have any choice but to try until we succeed. If course, the best strategy that we could have was let the boys be on the mat and all of the girls must be on the shoulder of these boys. We only made small point but they still gave us satisfying points. The next that we had is the story making. They gave us different images then we have to find out what is the real scenario of that story. Though we got demerit on that game, we still finish it. By the help of my mate we got the story. Then, the next is the game with ate Jen that we have to carry a 1.5 lit. bottle with water inside then carry it to other side of the court by using plastic rope again. The hard part here was that the bottle was so smooth that the plastic rope that we had make it fall. It only consumed our time then we made it. We went to the next game; the passing of marshmallow. We need to pass the marshmallow until the last group mate that we had. Again, the problem that we had here was we were really many, so before we made it pass to the middle, it was already fallen. We didn’t make it so we lose in this game. Then, the next was there is a maze that we need to pass until the end of it. Our eyes were blindfolded at that time and we just need to listen on the instruction of our leader. We easily made it because before we started, we already studied the maze itself so we knew were will be the possible blocks that we may pass along the way. We didn’t start the time that we got there because the facilitator got problem with the other group. We only started the time that they settled everything. Then, we made it. The last game that we had is we need to look for the coins in the pool. The problem here was only some on our group knew how to swim and dive in the water and at that time, it was already 2:00 in the afternoon so most of our group mate were really tired and hungry, so the facilitator did not push us to do that.
After all those activities, we first took our lunch then we got swim. I really tried to enjoy my swimming moment at that time but I got my personal problem. But still, I did not allow it to crash my day so my friends and I swam until we got tired. Exactly 4:00pm, we arouse and have our bath. We ate again and my best friend and I ride in a horse. I did not enjoy it because she was really afraid so we hold back and have our walk instead. Anyways, it was a funny thing that for the first time, I rode in a horse; additional unforgettable experience. Then, the announcement of winners and overall evaluation about the team building that was led by Prof. Osona. We didn’t win but the thing that we won was, “Strengthening the camaraderie”. We really got new friends and of course, we got known these people that we just pass everytime we were inside the school premises. We didn’t know that they are also part of Mentor Society. By now, when we see them, we try to recognize them and greet them. Some of us where still getting in touch. The teambuilding was over but the relationship we build are only getting started that for the next Q4B, we may really called as “Mentor Society”  because of the intact relationship that we build for that simple but unforgettable day.^^


The best game that we had that I can relate to some of the literary theory was:
1.       The game that we need to come up to a story based on the images. It’s aestheticism because it  emphasized aesthetic values (nature of beauty and art) more than socio-political themes for literature, fine art, the decorative arts, and interior design. As what we have done here, the images presented by the facilitator serves as the symbols to bring out the beauty of our imagination and creativity to tell what the narration of the story was.
2.         The next activity that we can relate in some literary theory was the game was the ambulance was the men and the girls were only being the patience. I choose this literary theory because as I observe the whole activity, they keep on telling the females to stay where we must and that is only in the situation. The female keep on helping the males because we only had more or less 5 males out of 17. At that moment I thought that what they are trying to tell us was in favor with us but the near fact here is that they telling us that we don’t have the guts to do what they can do. Discrimination for women arouses and yet, we didn’t listen to these men. As the game was over, we thought that only women make it accomplish.
3.       The next game that we had is the game with ate Jen wherein we are going to carry the 1.5lit. bottle that was filled with water then, we have to carry it to other side of the court. I categorize it in a reader response theory because that game was I already had experienced before. The moment I see the materials of that game, I already give my strategy on how to do it. As part of the group, I wanted to accomplish it as soon as possible and so they all agree with what I suggest and we made it.
