The movie that I have chosen is a classic film from 1988 called Heathers. Heathers is an American cult black comedy film written by Daniel Waters and directed by Michael Lehmann. The film portrays four teenage girls—three of whom are named Heather—in a clique and a teen named Veronica Sawyer who desperately wants to fit in, as well as a crazy and unstable boy named J.D that plans to ruin it all.

“The purpose of this paper is to write about the similarities and difference of two movies: The Choice and The Notebook. Nicholas Sparks really knows how to set a romantic/emotional, but also creates a very predictable love story plot-line. You could predict the ending before the movie started with only knowing who the movie was based on a Nicholas Sparks novel. There is always a boy who falls for a girl and has to work extremely hard to get her. Then, something happens, but in the end they are always together. The Notebook and The Choice both show how life is about choices, you have to fight for what you love, and the good guy wins; but, in The Choice the ending will leave you wanting to know more about these characters and their story and that is why The

Fantasy is the the gateway to one's childhood. It builds a child's imagination and allows their minds to run free. As quoted by Doreen R. Scott-Dunne, “ Fantasy is a necessary component of a child’s growth towards healthy psychological maturity or perhaps his sanity”. This quote expresses how fantasy develops a child's sanity and morality.

This film like many others is an important part to childhood, and all children should experience the magic it brings. In relation to the movie the article Fantasy-Necessary for sanity and morality(Dorren R.

I think it is extremely crucial for everyone to get vaccinated. Diseases can easily travel from one individual to another; hence, those that are not protected are at risk. Vaccines are one convenient and safest preventive care measure available.

Vaccines will not give an individual the

Jen is reflecting over how her expectations about having sex did not meet reality because the knowledge she had about sex came from movies such as Pretty Woman. As a result she romanticizes sex and this leaves her disappointed and dissatisfied when she finally has sex with Simon.

Even after she stops the car at the end, she is still thinking about Simon, which makes sex an important theme and issue for the protagonist throughout the story.

The Secret of Childhood by Maria Montessori Maria Montessori passionately reveals to us the inner workings of children as they develop into their full potential in an effort to assist adults in understanding and supporting this process.
