PLOT a series of related events. Throughout the course of a story’s plot, events unfold, build to climax, and are then brought to a conclusion during the resolution.

IRONY Verbal Irony: Contrast between what is said and what is meant EX: Saying “Nice weather today, huh?” on a rainy day. Saying something is “as clear as mud.” (sarcasm, understatement, etc.) Dramatic Irony: Contrast between what a character thinks to be true and what the reader knows to be true EX: Scary movie where you know the killer is in the closet the character is about to open, but the character does not. Situational Irony: Contrast between the intent of an action and the result EX: When a man attempted to assassinate Ronald Reagan, all of his shots missed the President; however a bullet ricocheted off the bullet-proof windows of the President’s limo and struck him in the chest. Thus, the windows made to protect him from gunfire were partially responsible for his being shot.

JOURNAL ENTRY #2 “Full Circle” -- Karma Do you believe in karma? Why or why not? You may respond by simply stating your opinion on this topic OR you may be a bit more creative and create a creative piece that deals with karma. The comment I use most on journal entries is “more”; don’t give up points because you are too lazy/careless to do your best work. These are free form responses, so you will not be penalized for M.U.G.S. or organizational errors.
