What is a Human Anyway?
This paper was challenging for me to write. For this paper we were required to choose two of the stories or poems or anything that we studied from the semester and to compare them or contrast them and I chose Night, by Elie Wiesel, and “No Name Woman”, by Maxine Hong Kingston. I focused on the dehumanizing of the people in those stories, so the Jews in Night and Maxine Hong Kingston’s aunt in “No Name Woman”. For this paper we were required to use scholarly articles and I was able to gather and learn so much from the articles that I used. This was one of the more challenging time I have had writing a paper, but once I found my inspiration I was able to write until I could write no more.
Final DraftI took all of the edits that I was told to make in the peer reviews of my outline and I wrote this paper completely. I stopped read through it and I hated it so I deleted it all and started again. And after I did that it was perfect. I was able to really hit the sensitive points that I chose to write about very well. In writing this I learned that there is no definition of the word human that does not use the word human in the description. I learned so much from my research while I was writing this and I really enjoyed writing this paper and I hope that you enjoy it as well.

I chose to include this picture here because it symbolizes the loneliness that is felt throughout each of these respective stories.

Rough Outline/ Peer Review
We did not turn in rough drafts for this assignment we did however turn in our outlines and had peer reviews of those. I titled this rough outline because it was a very rough outline :). I had so many typos and incomplete thoughts here in fact my teacher even wrote “So what?”, about my thesis, that is how rough this outline is. For this outline I had to pick three different points and because I was writing about two separate stories I had to find example of both points in each story. This was almost the most rough outline I have ever written because I normally do not write outlines, I just know what I want to write and I just write whatever. I will admit, however, that writing this outline and having the peer reviews helped me and made it so much easier when it came time to finish writing me paper.
