After reading Master and Man, I quite think overall it is a very good story, But I personally struggle a lot to follow it because I don´t understand it very well, the vocabulary that Leo Tolstoy uses in the story was a little difficult for me to understand, I usually get the plot of the story in which the man named Vasili Andreevich and Nikita, his servant get into a journey and get lost when trying to arrive to a town, for me it was really boring that most of the story is about both geting lost along with their horse, during all the story I tried to catch up and try to see character development in both characters, that was the only thing I founded interesting during all the story.

Personal response to “Our Town”
The play “Our Town” was a really nice play, I really enjoyed watching it, I liked more watching it that reading it, because when reading it I really could not understand it very clear, while watching the play it was really confusing when actor used imaginary objects, but I liked that because it really makes you think and analyze the situation of the play using our own imagination and creativity. Although is not my favorite type of books I think it is a really nice play that is worth watching it, The actors did an amazing job, their expressions and body language in acting was very accurate to the character played, also I was really surprise because of the different type of narrator, as he could talk and interact with actors, I think is really cool that the stage manager was a real part of the play, overall I give the play a 7 out of 10, for me it was boring at the very start, and I would change a little the houses layout because for me it was difficult to understand what scene was, But I like how this play requires and makes you have a critical thinking and see and understad life in many different perspective, in this case on people in a different time.

I feel that is one of my biggest qualities, one of the things I like the most and I am good at doing them. And thats why I feel I why I feel I will be a great doctor, and just not in knowledge because I admire doctors every day because they put a lot of effort and study into their career and how they put our lives before theirs.
