Answer: The answer should be these two parts. "...I had to arm wrestle with him for it." and "Then I tied all his arms and legs in knots."
Explanation: These are hyperboles because they are exaggerative. Most likely the person did not arm wrestle with an octopus. Although that would be funny to watch, life is not a Disney movie. Then again if anything he fought the octopus to get away but did not literally tie his arms and legs in knots. The character is exaggerating in order to make himself seem even braver and more courageous than he actually is.
You canfirst accomplish your smaller goals and then set some larger goals. To better explain it put it in a way like a time line like first set your smaller goals and then set your larger goals. Accomplish your smaller goals and then plan your self on how you will accomplish your larger goals.
In The Red Badge of Courage, when Henry wakes up in camp the day after fighting, he first think he is in a Charnel place because the sleeping men around him look dead.
I can relate to you kinda except I don’t like math but math basically can be challenging and I think if you understand it it’s fun also math is meant to try to figure out things because it’s a challenging subject for me personally but yea I guess you could say math is meant to help us figure out stuff easily or may be hard sometimes but that is life isn’t it. I love reading I agree I love just picturing things or like fantasying I’m there when I read I think reading is lots of fun because I can read about stuff I may never heard about before. And I like to vent sometimes because I have a lot of stuff on my mind so I can relate too you!
