Answer:

                      WHAT I WANT TO CHANGE ABOUT MYSELF

I am a young man in my early twenties, I am a jovial person who relates well with people. However, there is a characteristic I want to change about myself which is my tendency to be quick-tempered.

I can go from 0-100 in under a second and the change from calmness to rage is always startling, even to myself. In this state, I am likely to cause damage that would be very costly. I remembered the last time I lost my temper, I used a baseball bat to smash the windscreen of someone's car. What happened that day was that the driver of the car hit the fender of my car in his drunken state and when I went up to him, he hurled abuses on me so I lost my cool, got a baseball bat, and completely destroyed his windscreen.

That action of mine was not without consequence as I was arrested and charged with violent conduct and assault, and ended up paying for the windscreen.

If I was more rational and level headed, all that could have been avoided. So, the character i want to change is my quick temper.

Write a paragraph about your opinion of <br> "the outsider" by H.P. Lovecraft​
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

The Outsider" is written in a first-person narrative style, and details the miserable and apparently lonely life of an individual, who appears to have never made contact with another individual. The story begins, with the narrator explaining his origins. His memory of others is vague, and he cannot seem to recall any details of his personal history, including who he is or where he is originally from. The narrator tells of his environment: a dark, decaying castle amid an "endless forest" of high trees that block out the light from the sun. He has never seen natural light, nor another human being, and he has never ventured from the prison-like home he now inhabits. The only knowledge the narrator has of the outside world, is from his reading of the "antique books" that line the walls of his castle.

The narrator tells of his eventual determination to free himself, from what he views as an existence within a prison. He decides to climb the ruined staircase of the high castle tower which seems to be his only hope for an escape. At the place where the stairs terminate into crumbled ruins, the narrator begins a long, slow climb up the tower wall, until he eventually finds a trapdoor in the ceiling, which he pushes up and climbs through. Amazingly, he finds himself not at the great height he anticipated, but at ground level in another world. With the sight of the full moon before him, he proclaims, "There came to me the purest ecstasy I have ever known." Overcome with the emotion he feels in beholding what—until now—he had only read about, the narrator takes in his new surroundings. He realizes that he is in an old churchyard, and he wanders out into the countryside before eventually coming upon another castle.

Hope this helps! Brainliest please.

“the booming ice storm of glass” This is an example of which figure of speech?
Elena-2011 [213]
Is there a story or article where this is used in? If not then I'd say hyperbole. "Ice storm of glass" is heavily exaggerated.
