I am who I am today because of the choices I made yesterday…
The poems, The Road not Taken by Robert Frost and Choices by Nikki Giovanni are very similar in many ways. However these two poems are as different as the sun is to the moon.
For example, The Road not Taken is about a man trying to sort out his future.
While on the other hand this African American female ,makes choices,yes,
But she isn’t given as much opportunity; yet she makes the best of it.
I relate to the poem The Road not Taken because unlike the piece Nikki Giovanni wrote,
I’m still deciding what I want and need to do with my life.
Choices is more about doing what she has already planned for herself and if it’s not what she wants,
She wants no part of it.
Whereas I have my whole life ahead of me and I can either go down a right path or a wrong path,
Choose the job I want to be satisfied with and express the emotions I want to.

A) 1. A long term goal that I would use that would help me with time management would be to have everything I need to get done written down and set a time for how long these things should take and stick to my schedule and not get carried away with other projects or spend too much time on one project. 2.

Imagine a small neighborhood, in a borough of New York. You can hear the din of neighbors chatting, the whispers of wind through the trees, and even the shuffle of people walking about. This homey ,serene, comfortable, feeling is synonymous with the feeling a viewer gets when looking at The Little Street by Johannes Vermeer. The painting at first glance resembles a photo of an old, worn down building that could be found in a place like New York. The red bricks on the three story structure are meticulously…
