Covering Hermia

Hermia’s Personal Magazine Cover by Akina Tse

This magazine cover I created using Canva is a character analysis about Hermia from the play Mid-Summer Night’s Dream by William Shakespeare. I chose this girl’s picture for the background of my cover because I think it really fits Hermia as a character, and as an elegant girl. I am proud of my design on the cover and I think that it looks fairly nice.

Conflict Before Bedtime

This found poem that I have created was taken from the short passage “The Last Kiss” by Ralph Fletcher. It shows an external conflict of man versus man, which the protagonist struggles with his dad. In the rising action of the story, “I” illustrates his everyday life with his mother and father, he goes to his mother and father for good night kisses. In this passage, “I” comes across as an eight-year-old boy who struggles and tries to get a goodnight kiss from his dad, because one day, he was unmanaged to get the kiss from his dad before he goes to bed.  At last, he realizes that he is already too old to be kissed by his father. By the same time, he also wonders if he will one day lose his mother’s kisses as well. Hopefully, this slightly awkward situation will be solved.
