“And then along came Zeus…” Oh how I love this movie. Disney’s Hercules is probably as close as mainstream media will get to the original , and still keep it G-rated. I need this now. This has not been the best day. You see, today is my friend, Paige’s, birthday. She had a sleepover, and invited me, and my other friend Faith. I gaze at Faith’s black frizzy rat’s nest. I wonder, how did this sleepover go so wrong? See, most of the sleepover went well. We played truth or dare, talked about boys, TPed Mrs.Dunbar’s house, made some prank calls, and played Dragon Age: Inquisition on Paige’s Xbox. But that was when the party went wrong.
“Eriiiiin,” whined Faith, “We both wanna play Five Nights at Freddy’s, why won’t you?”
“You did say that, since

serve your birthday cake. I did not think it was cool. Hamish must have been running low on something, so he was freezing at random times, and Gabby the Guinea Pig was belching out black steam, and when they performed their signature song, “A Rockin’ Birthday Party,” it was so slow, and demonic sounding, and Barney the Beaver was running around, short circuiting, and to top off this terrible birthday, Carson the Capybara ran straight into Barney’s mouth, and Barney literally bit his head off. I started crying uncontrollably, and my mom made the Pizzamatronic place give us a refund. I never set foot in one of those restaurants …show more content…
I am plunged into darkness. The bags of Cheez-Eez, and corn chips in the corner look like demons. The couches loom over me like mountains. Mangle melts out of the wall, trailing strings, her endoskeleton all but exposed. Springtrap drops down from the ceiling, I can almost feel his moldy green ears, brushing over my hammering heart. I see Golden Freddy’s limp, hulking form in the blanket pile. Dwalin looks like Freddy Fazbear, clutched under Paige’s arm. Lightening outside flashes. For a split second, I see Purple Guy raising a knife over me, his golden badge catching the lightning, blinding me. I curl up in a little ball at the end of my sleepingbag. I’m not even safe in there. I see Chica’s holey face, with it’s four rows of teeth, dances in and out of view. Bonnie’s faceless, wire filled head jumps off of the inside of my sleeping bag. I clutch Whimsicott closer, encasing him in limbs. His cottony puffball a comfort, but not enough to make me feel secure. Foxy dives off the top of my sleeping bag, trailing wires, I can almost smell the motor oil on his putrid breath. I jump at the touch of my Snorlax plush, thinking I feel one of the animatronics brushing up against my back. I squeeze up against him too, wishing I had never played those stupid
Do you live outside of Israel, but want to participate in the struggle for Jewish religious freedom on the Temple Mount?
The four teenagers arrived to the theme park around 12 o'clock and were already as excited as could be. “Oh my goodness! I am so ready to ride The Batman, that’s my absolute favorite ride,” Makayla squealed as they entered the park. The park was huge and the teens could not wait to get on the rides. “Okay kids,
Bagalman defines TBI as “an alteration in brain function, or other evidence of brain pathology, caused by an external force.” (Bagalman, 2011). Clinical diagnoses of TBI could be from mild to severe and it is often “associated with decreased levels of consciousness, amnesia, and other neurological abnormalities; skull fracture; and intracranial lesions” (Ender, 2010) which can significantly affect the normal daily function of the patient. Exposure to blast from Improvised Explosive Devices (IED) and other explosives has been identified as the major cause of TBI among veterans (Ender, 2010).
All too soon it's time for the burial. Everyone takes turns walking by the casket where they say their last goodbyes. I can’t help but smile slightly when I see that underneath her bandaged arms and beside her, are her favourite books—The Percy Jackson series by Rick Riordan, the Trylle Trilogy by Amanda Hocking, An Unfortunate Fairy Tale series by Chanda Hahn, the Harry Potter series by J. K. Rowling and a few more. Then, the workers slowly lower her casket into the ground, making the headstone visible for all to see:
“ It will be done during the term of office of some of the people who sit here on this platform. But it will be done. And it will be done before the end of this decade. I am delighted that this university is playing a part in putting a man on the moon as part of a great national effort of the United States of America.”- John Fitzgerald Kennedy.
This past week Brutus, Cassius, Casca and several other men murdered Rome’s dearest friend, Julius Caesar. Fear these men, as they will stop at nothing on their conquest for power as to kill a kind, merciful man such as Caesar. Watch out for these men, as they will slither silently, stalking their prey and stab swiftly for a higher seat in Rome. For those new to our great republic, Caesar was accused for trying to become a king and destroying the purpose of the republic, but that is far from the opposite. When offered a crown by his companion, Marc Antony, Caesar refused not once, not twice, but three times just to please us. These vile beasts, in return, stabbed him twenty-three times, each of which were close friends and were given his trust, for he believed in the good of people. Then there is Caesar’s will, in which he donated so much to us from the bottom of his heart. Some Romans may say that Caesar deserved what he got but for me and my fellow true Romans we know other wise. We must come together and give these murders the
You are a crazy man Brutus wanting to kill Caesar. No one else would dare to kill such man in such high rank but you maniacs. May god bless all of yours souls because after you guys to this you will all be a lost cause. The rest of my kind will be confused but will support anyone's decision since all we do is follow what anyone says. Take for example Caesars triumph over Pompey the great. All of us were cheering an happy but we were once cheering like that for Pompey the great. We looked like a bunch of Hippocrates now will be the same case. We are easily persuaded by everyone and everything around
This morning I’m here to tell you that I have decided to let Julius Caesar live. I find it outrageous that some of you want to kill our leader. Look at all he has done. In the past he was a amazing military leader and and this man really cares for the Roman people. I really hope I persuade some of you that don’t want to keep this legend of a man that we call Julius Caesar live.
There are many instances in the Odyssey where a character attempts to influenc or persuade another character to change his or her mind, to make a decision, or to take an action. Not every individual is capable of being persuasive. Some people are just born with terrific social skills which in turn allows them to persuade other individuals. Odysseus is an excellent example of a persuasive character because not only is he a hero in his country, he is also a leader who has spent much time trying to persuade people to believe that his actions and words are true. Odysseus’s ability to persuade people allowed him to be reunited with his wife, Penelope, after being gone for twenty years. This is significant because his ultimate goal throughout the epic poem was to be reunited with her. Therefore, His ability to persuade Penelope by expressing his emotions and giving her specific details was a significant factor that allowed him to prove to her that he is the one and only Odysseus whom she fell in love with.
Has anyone ever been so cruel to you that he takes everything from you and leaves you nothing? Have you ever known someone who hides himself with deception and leaves everything a mystery to you? Have you ever known someone who only causes you pain? This is my relationship with the gods. If you have experienced this, you will understand my pain. I believe it is fitting to give praise to those who deserve it, though there are few who do, and give blame by dispraising vice. Everyone who treats people with cruelty and hides themselves with deception deserves to be hated. This is especially true of the gods, who deserve more blame for these things than anyone else.

“Soon my friends will get off that Amtrak, they will help me roast an animal and some veggies, even as they point their iTelephones at the sky, praying for rain. Their prayers will not be answered.” In my beliefs, the Information Age is distracted with thoughts in the clouds, assuming someone out there will help us instead of taking action ourselves. Although we acquire a higher education, we are too scared to see the truth that lies beneath the surface of the issues at steak. Therefor, we shut out the world around us and isolate ourselves with what makes us confortable. Further, we waste time watching videos or playing games when we are bored instead of making use of our time on this Earth. Watching scary movies about zombies taking over the
For example, using a leftover coffee can for loose nails or screws, or even washing and reusing a plastic zip-loc bag instead of throwing it in the garbage. Thrift shopping is a way of reusing someone else’s unwanted goods. As I spoke about in an earlier speech about thrifting, I included many locations and ways to thrift, also the benefits to the shopper and the donator. One place in particular was shopping at the local boys and girls club. I personally shop there, keeping my eyes open for a good deal. For example, the pair of jeans that I am wearing today was purchased from this store just a few months ago. I paid only $8.00 for this pair of Lucky Jeans and according to buckle.com, a retailer for lucky jeans the retail price is $99.00 that is a savings to me of $91.00.I am not the type to worry about name brands, but quality usually does cost more. If I can get a quality pair of jeans at a fraction on the price, I am glad to shop at the thrift store. I am thankful to the person that made the donation of the lucky jeans and they can benefit from that donation. According to the IRS webpage, IRS. Gov it explains that an individual can donate items like clothing, household furniture and furnishings, a car or boat, even taxidermy. The donations are appraised, by the donator, and recorded. At the time of filing taxes if the donation equals at least $500 for the year, the donator may take advantage of the

"Fate is what you're given, destiny is what you make of it." When fate is given to you, it's how you take it that matters. When you are given wealth, do you use it wisely? When you are faced with a bad situation, do you continue to run away or take it on? Will you use your choices in vain, or for the good of everyone? Just know that your choices are yours, that if all goes wrong, the blame isn't placed on someone else. Know that you were the one who made the mistake. However, choose wisely and you may be adored. But fair warning, choices can change people, harden them, even kill ones they love. In the book The Pearl, a man named Kino is given great wealth. Its up to him to choose what to do with this wealth. His choices throughout the book change his life thoroughly, but are they affecting him negatively or positively?
