1) When Goodman Brown journeys into the forest at night where he breaks his faith with his wife and his life. He makes a turn for the worst which leads him down the wrong trail of life.
2) Pink Ribbons: clean, pure, honor.
Faith: she's Goodman's wife, but represent the honor and respect of life and faith itself.
Devil: Brown goes into the dark forest with his staff, which has a snake on it, which could symbolize the devil.
3) I feel as though Brown is having an illusion to what he is truly feeling inside in his heart. It's as though all these events are happening between him, the devil, Faith, and others all in one swoop of a day. You can't just go from a normal life, to a chain reaction of weird events all of a sudden.
4) Young Goodman Brown
Faith
Deacon Gookin
Goody Cloyse
Goody Cory
Goody
Martha Carrier
Powwows
Devil
Minister
Towns People
5) Wolf's Bane: the poisonious plant that could possibly repesent what death could bring to everyone in Salem.
King's Palace: the 2nd traveler shouldn't be afraid of what he is in for when he travels to the palace.
6) Sometimes the story seemed to hop back and forth, and i got confused with alot of the diologue in the story, but all in all, i was amused by the words of Hawthorne.
Young Goodman Brown is a Puritan man from the town of Salem, Massachusetts in the 1600s. All is good, until he decides to set off into the forest with some dark figure [possibly the Devil]. When he returns, he is a new man. His wife, Faith, doesn't see the man that she fell in love with. Brown is
7) He is, mostly on the parts of Goodman Brown and Faith. Faith more than Goodman. Hawthorne makes Faith seem to represent many things in this story, such as heaven, honor, and respect. As to Goodman, who in my opinion, seems to represent the Devil.
8) The theme could be a variety of subjects. for the most part it could repesent faith vs. disrespect. In the beginning, Brown was able to have full faith in himself and in his wife and others. This is until he goes into the forest with the strange man, and comes back a different person. He is then showing no respect to anyone, not even his wife. She doesn't seem to love him anymore.

5B) GO FOR WHAT YOU TRULY WANT IN LIFE, AND DON'T EVER LET SOMEONE TELL YOU OTHERWISE. YOU AN CHANGE THE VIEW OF OTHERS AND THE WORLD AROUND YOU, ONLY YOU HAVE THE POWER TO SHOW WHAT'S RIGHT. JACKIE ROBINSON SHOWED THAT TO EVERY BLACK ATHLETE. HE WAS THE FIRST AFRICAN AMERICAN TO PLAY IN THE MAJORS, AND HE WAS ONE OF THE GREATS. NOW IF A MAN HAS THE GUTS TO STICK IT TO THE MAN, NO MATTER WHAT RACE YOU ARE, YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN LIFE.

Vocab Words. 10-12-09
Kaitlyn is such an egregious cook, she burnt all the food.
The dogmatic drill instructor made the girls do 1,000 pushups, while the guys got to sit around and watch them suffer.
All the deer dissipated when the saw the bear charging after them.
The coach was yelling and nagging one of his players, that the kid walked out of the gym, and never came to practice for a week.
The Mall of America is an edifice of shops and stores.
Mark's tempestuous attitude when the girls lost caused all his veins to pop out of his head.
Amy's decorous attitude got her the sportsmanship award.
Dr. D always has a long eulogium at graduation, but he isn't with the school anymore.
Skagway doesn't have that much proprietary towards the other teams during a basketball game.
Jesse seems to have a sagacious dentist, cause none of her teeth have fallen out yet.
The creepy man had a voluminous amount of Stephen King books on his shelf.
When Fielding gives the class a arduous project, everyone knows we got a tough 2 weeks ahead of us.
