Abstract

The aim of this study is to reveal about the decision making by Savannah and John in their love relationship in Nicholas Sparks’ Dear John. The writers employ qualitative method in conducting this research and in the data collection, the writers use primary source: the work itself Nicholas Sparks’ Dear John and secondary source: another references such as journals, books or internet sources which related and relevant to the research. In term of data analysis, the writers use psychoanalytic approach because decision making is so related with thoughts, emotions and environment. The study shows that when they are in a long distance relationship, they make a wrong decision too soon to end up their relationship just because of time, situation and feeling and they still love each other deeply when they meet again but it is too late to turn around the situation because Savannah has become someone else’s wife and it is impossible to break their mariage. The result of this study shows that when making a decision, John and Savannah prefer in id which means that they make a decision just because of their immediate satisfication that every wishful or pleasure should be satisfied without thinking about the consequences, if it brings a damage or profit in their future.

Abstract

This study aims at describing simile in Taylor Swift Songs. It is conducted to identify the types, the function and the contextual meaning of simile used in Taylor Swift’s Songs. In conducting this research, qualitative analysis is used. The data are analyzed through the steps of data reduction, data display, conclusion and verification as proposed by Miles & Huberman (2007). The instrument of collecting the data is the researchers themselves as the key instrument. The findings of this research show that there are two types of similes used in Taylor Swift’s Songs those are open and closed simile. Simile allows readers to relate the feelings of the author to their personal experiences. The similes are used to make the song more imaginable and meaningful. The most important function of simile is to draw sharp pictures in the mind through comparisons, to give deeper insight into things, person, and ideas trough suggestive association, or to explain abstract, complicated ideas in simple concrete imagery. It’s better to use as it should be so the people will not be offended but should make comfortable sense.  In using simile, we need to consider with the situation and context. The contextual meaning is the meaning of the words according to the situation in which they are used.
