The climbed up mountain after mountain and frequently checked the compass to make sure they were on the right path. They stopped briefly beside streams to drink and when the sun rose, they slept in a cave that they had reached. Dawn came, and the girls finally woke up. They ate what little food they had but were still hungry. Below the mountain was a town. They decided that they would climb down there and buy food from the white folk. This was a very risky plan, but they had no choice. They would either starve to death or be caught and sent back to the Riley Plantation. At night they climbed down and snuck into an alley. Some meters in front of the alley were a farmhouse. Julilly knocked on the door of the house and out came an old lady carrying a pistol. Politely, Julilly asked if she could buy some food. Surprised at the money in Julilly's hand the old lady shouted very loudly that she was stealing money. Then she threatened her, saying that she would shoot if Julilly didn't get off her property. They ran away from that place, but they didn't give up. Fortunately, the second house they approached was a farmhouse full of cows. The farmer saw them walk into the field. He asked them if they were slaves. Then he instructed to follow him. Bewildered the two girls did as they were told. He led them into a small village.

The last century in America has proven to be detrimental to the job source for men. Men have to adapt to a different work ethic in order to survive in today’s society. In the early nineteenth century both farming and manufacturing jobs were the employment for men, according to Thomas Mortenson (138)."In the 1910 census, one third of all workers were either farmers or farm laborers. Today those workers account for less than 2 percent. During World War II, about 35 percent of all jobs were in manufacturing. Today only about 10 percent are” (Mortenson 138).

The Red tent is a book that follows the life of a woman named Dinah. The stories that are told throughout take place in biblical times, and follows some of the lineage of the bible itself.

I had really enjoyed my life in Newmarket, but I was time to start my life in New York City. My dad got a job there, so my mom and I moved there with him. I really liked my last school and had lots of friends there that I would miss dearly. It was the first day of school and I didn't know what the kids at this school would think of me. As I walked to school, I wondered what my fate would be today. I was almost at school when I noticed something unusual. I noticed that all the kids at school walked in cliques. Nobody in a clique talked to others cliques, and it felt like they wanted to isolate themselves. This was weird for me due to the fact that at my old school, everyone talked and socialized to each other. I walked into the giant building, and it was like nothing I had ever seen before. The school was massive, and it was at least 3 time bigger than my old school. I had to find my own way to my first class, and got myself lost several times, but I finally found where it was. I walked into the classroom and the teacher greeted me and I was introduced to the class. I went and found a seat at the very back of the room, where the only seat was available. I noticed as I sat down, the kids started to look at me in a funny way! I wasn't sure what this meant but it made my stomach turn, as if I knew something bad was going to happen. As I walking out of class I got bombarded with tall strong boy’s. They

The Breakfast Club was a movie delineating the interactions of five high school students from differing backgrounds encountering the obstacle of a Saturday detention. These five students were composed of a princess, a brain, an outcast, a jock, and most pertinent to this paper, the rebel, John Bender. John Bender is depicted within this movie as a careless and hostile character with some authority issues. An impulsive and uncooperative individual, Bender, in the detention for pulling the fire alarm, serves as a sharp juxtaposition to the other characters, often challenging the others on their perspectives. This contrast could perhaps be attributed to his home life, which is different from his four detention counterparts.

The Breakfast Club is a movie about five students from Shermer High School who gather on a Saturday to sit through eight hours of detention. These five students; Andrew Clark, Claire Standish, John Bender, Allison Reynolds and Brian Johnson, have nothing in common.

The Grimm brothers, in their short story, “Hansel and Gretel”, illuminate the idea of vulnerability, innocence, and determination through two children’s eyes, and how in time, they become who they need to be in order to overcome their obstacle. The two words, “vulnerability” and “innocence” are known adjectives when one thinks of a child, thus fitting almost perfectly when describing Hansel and Gretel. With these natural childlike traits instilled within the two, they have no choice but to become dependent upon one another. These two brothers have constructed a great deal of imagery throughout the story which represents the innocence of a child. The authors develop symbolism throughout the story which in return, helps support my thesis. Unless one takes a closer look within the text, they just might overlook what it actually represents. There is a great use of diction throughout this short story which simply helps describe the two children, Hansel and Gretel. “The white pebbles…glistening like silver coins” is a complete depiction of a young child (Grimm 15). White as we all know represents purity, and the comparison of the pebbles to silver coins creates represents a childlike view of excitement and innocence. This excitement and vivid imagination of Hansel occurs just in time after overhearing the parents plan. There’s a white(purity) cat that the boy mentions when leaving home. Both objects are white, the pebbles and the cat. These two things also represent hope that the
