Cold Weather!

I like the cold weather but it's been too cold. Every summer i say i can't wait till winter so this heat can go away but now i can't wait till summer time for the heat to come back. This type of weather makes me not want to get up. All I want to do is just be lazy. I want to stay in bed and be under my blankets and be warm! I don't really do anything related to the outdoors this time of year because I would get cold real fast.

The things that I like about this weather is that the cold brings Christmas and most importantly hot chocolate! Hot chocolate is another thing that keeps me warm and i love it. I know when its cold Christmas is just around the cornor. That's when the part of our family we don't see to often come over to my Nana's house and we have a nice big dinner and then we gather in the living room to have some laughs and exchange gifts.

So I like this cold weather and i don't. It has it downs with being lazy and tired but it has its ups when Christmas comes around and you get to be around your family and have a good time.

A Chirstmas Memory by Truman Capote

The element of literature that is in this story is Autobiographical Fiction. Autobiographical fiction is when the writer may take material from anywhere, including experiences from his or her life. How this story reflected on this element of literature is when the author writes Those who Know Best decide that I belong in military school. That could be from Truman Capotes life.

The element of literature that is in this story is Character. Characters are the people who participate in the action of work of fiction. There are two types of characters, main and minor.

The Gift of the Magi by O. Henry

The element of literature that is in this story is Irony. Irony is the difference between what we expect to happen and what actually happens. Or another word that can be used for that would be Ironic. How Irony is used in this story is when Della had sold her hair to get Jim a gift for his most valueable possession it turned out to be he had sold he watch to get her the set of combs for her hair. I didnt see it coming when he said he had sold his watch for her gift.
