What I've Learned: Modernism

Throughout this unit I learned many things about life, dreams, writing, and reading. Both Hemingway and Fitzgerald have taught me that dreams are pointless if they are only materialistic and if they are obsessed over too much. This is because materialistic things do not carry over when I die and if I obsess over a dream too much, it can disappear or change leaving me almost empty with no hope left. Also I have learned to read carefully, look up unknown words or things, and annotate to to help me further understand the material. With writing I have learned to make good outlines because the better the outline the better paper and easier it is to write. This is what I have learned from the Modernist unit that we covered.
