“Here he is,” Mindy said happily when Zack arrived for his detention. Zack looked around. The only people there were Miss Devasquez and Mindy. He knew about the “special detention” that Miss Hartick had put together, and he had expected that he would have to go through the same thing. It didn’t look that way though. He was glad about that at least. He even let himself expect that this might be a regular detention. He asked, “It’s just us?” “It’s just us,” Miss Devasquez said. Playfully, she said, “What were you expecting?” Then the classroom door opened again as Shelly walked in. “Am I in time? Hi, Zack.” Zack groaned. Miss Devasquez was not having that though. “Shelly, why are you here?” “Aren’t we going to, uh, isn’t Zack going to have to?” Miss Devasquez couldn’t help enjoying this. “I think Zack could learn a bit about respecting women. This isn’t an interview though. I can handle this.” “But! Wait, what do you mean?” Shelly didn’t want to tiptoe around it. She shut the door behind her so that she could talk. “If you’re going to strip him down, then why can’t I watch?” Zack said, “Is this necessary? You can do whatever you want to us in the locker room. Do you have to pull us out of there to humiliate us?” “You should have thought of that before you decided to call us alley cats,” Miss Devasquez said. “Shelly, Zack will be uncomfortable enough with just me and Mindy here to see him.” “So what? Who cares how uncomfortable he is? I want to see him naked too.” “Come on!”
I went Into Elie Wiesel 's Night having read the book in various stages in my life. It seems to follow me through my schooling years. In junior high I read it in standard English class, just like any other book I would have read that year. In high school I read it for a project I was creating on World War II, looking at it from a more historical approach. Being a firsthand account of concentration camps made it a reliable source of historical information. But during previous times when I was reading, I never thought to take a look at it from a theological point of view. Doing so this time really opened my eyes to things and themes I hadn 't noticed during previous readings.
There has been a resurgence of zombie films in the last decade, ranging from Danny Boyles 28 Days Later to Paul W.S. Andersons Resident Evil. This renaissance of zombie cinema has resurfaced in response to the cultural, political, and social volatility experienced in today’s society, much like its predecessors. A zombie film, unlike other monster movies, plays more with the real-world fears and anxieties, presenting the audience with inescapable realities. However, to understand why this subgenre has been brought back into the mainstream cinema, a comparison is needed across generations of film. This paper will focus on the comparison between George A. Romero’s Night of the Living Dead and Danny Boyles 28 Days Later; in an attempt to show how zombie cinema is a reaction to cultural shocks.
He looked over towards the front door and grimaced. "You didn't tell me he was bringing more than just himself." He gave Alex a dirty look.
“Aaron what are you doing out here? Come back inside, this rounds on me!” Silvia said, breaking up the mess that was in the process.
I get the boys attention and point to the window. “Hang back. I’m going to see if I can get her out there. You see anything, cover me.”
“Sorry. I couldn’t resist,” he chuckled out. By this time, he was standing there just wearing a pair of boxer briefs. He had placed his clothes on top of the rock and paused. “Are you telling me after last night you want to play little Miss Modest?”
Zack seemed thrown off his game. "Now that my frequency’s ruin, I’m going to go get settled. Let’s meet for dinner and then to Stu's." He turned and marched away. His biker boots sounding down the hall.
“I’m not sure but it seems extremely weird”. It’s now lunch time and Josh isn’t really sitting far away from both Jennifer and Vanessa. It’s now the end of the day of Thursday and both Vanessa and Jennifer are scared for the next day because this week has been very strange to both of them and the next day is Friday. The last day of the week for school.
A devious roar of laughter filled the room. “Oh, hell no. I’ll take care of this later. The night is young and we’re just getting started.”
“Alas, but I do have modesty. I just wanted to have some fun” I said.
We sat on the bus for like and half an hour. Oh my god if this drive takes any longer I’m going to kill myself. We finally show up to school after what felt like forever. As we walk the JV team heads to locker room to get ready for the game, as we go find seats in the bleacher.
After she'd finished with his torso, she motioned for him to take off his pants. He gaped at her, making her shake her head.
Miss Devasquez loved to rub it in. “Well, you are both naked. Naked, naked, naked.”
With a basket on his back and an arm filled with a rifle, Eustace started out with his husky, Hunter, to check his traps. The black spotted, white fluff pounced forward with determination, well acquainted with the trap-line, howling and barking as he went ahead of Eustace along the Yaak River.
Six months. I can’t believe it’s been six months, and my stomach still turns when I see his car in the parking deck. Six months since I’m the one who chose to break it off, and yet I’m still this fucked up over it somehow.
