I was Born December 21st, 1925 in Cincinnati Ohio. My parents are Nick and Johanna Kamenshek. I was an only child my whole life but I had large dreams. I dreamed of becoming a nurse and I wanted to help everyone, small problem with that. My only way of becoming a nurse was by enlisting but my mother was worried and wouldn't let me

I was born May, 30th 1989 at Wadley Medical in Texarkana, Ar. I was born to Kym Crispino from Queens, NY and William Lee of Hot Springs, Ar. My parents were young when they had me. We were very poor at times, but they always made sure I had what I needed. I was an only child, but grew up around plenty of cousins. I have lived in Texarkana my entire life. My parents split up when I was twelve, and my mother and I moved out into the country on a dead-end street with no children in the area, I became very sheltered and a little socially awkward.

The cruel dominance of a father, can extinguish any flame of hope that builds in the people around him. In William Faulkner's short story "Barn Burning," Abner is that father. The story portrays a nomadic life of a family driven from one home to another. Abner had a craving hunger to belittle those around him that thought they were "better than him." Although the family accepts the nomadic life, Sarty (the son) dreams of having peace and stability. To have this peace, it only requires a lack of conflict. The Snope family was doomed to struggle due to Abner's constant instigation of conflict, the ongoing domination of his family and his complete lack of respect

When I was the age of 4, I came to the Hickman preschool for approximately 3 days, my mother wanted to see how the school worked but ended up not liking it and took me back to the old preschool I originally went to. After preschool was over, I went to kindergarten at Hickman. I didn’t have to go on the waiting list because my older sister, (Madison), was in second grade here, and I already lived in Hickman. Since Hickman is a small school compared to others, I met everyone

I was born in Craven Community Hospital in New Bern North Carolina on Thursday, May 23,1991. Craven Community Hospital is the only hospital in New Bern, both of my parents born in the same hospital. New Bern is a very small city in North Carolina many people have never heard of it, a lot of my family on both sides still live there. Like most cities in North Carolina, they are retirement cities, everything moves slow down there and there isn’t much for young people to do. Due to this, my parents moved from New Bern when I was about six months old, we moved to Maryland with my grandmother, my mom’s mother. We lived with her until my parents were able to get their own place. My grandmother loved that we had

I’m Alannah Olson, and I’m a senior at Forest City High School. My parents are Kim Olson and Marion Olson. They’ve been two of the most supporting parents I could ask for. I’ve been active in multiple activities throughout my high school and community. I stay busy and do good for the people around me. My parents have been extremely supportive in the decisions I’ve made throughout high school and are always encouraging me that I can do anything, if I set my mind to it. Because of them, I have become the person I am today that likes to be successful and make my parents proud.

I was born at seven-thirty in Manhattan, New York on October 14th, 2002 to seventeen-year-old, Samantha Souchet and eighteen-year-old, Luis Soto. They were kids having a kid. I was raised by many women on one block. Such as my two great-grandmothers, my grandmother, my mother and my three aunts. I was the only child in the house so I kind of grew up acting like a little adult, which I still kind of act like. You tend to learn a lot of things from living with a bunch of women your whole life. I always speak of all the lessons they taught me but I hardly ever speak of my father. My father is my hero and role model.

I was born on December 22nd 1922 in Smithfield,North Carolina I lived on a tobacco farm while growing up with 2 brothers and 4 sisters. My parents Mary and Jonas were poor cotton and tobacco farmers. I was raised in baptist faith because of my mother but while I was just a child we got our property taken away. Forcing my mother to be a cook and a housekeeper and my father was forced to work at a sawmill.

My parents were uneducated and never attend college. My father didn’t graduate high school he dropped out at the age of sixteen. He worked full time. My parents got married at the age of nineteen. Which was very young. My mom had her first child, at the age of eighteen which was with my oldest sister Rashel.

Faulkner’s works consisted of many dark touchy topics such as war, racism, mental illness and suicide in all of books, short stories, William Faulkner wrote about almost every part of life, from something that could be absurd at his time, to something real like racism in the American South. Throughout his life, Faulkner was kind of a rebel, notorious for his confidence, drinking, and he would often make up stories about himself. Faulkner wrote from experience and as a person who lived in the south during times of racism, he wrote about a lot of things in the south. To be exact his specific genre or style in which he wrote in is what some call “southern gothic”. Southern gothic is a unique style of writing and only expressed by very few authors. These stories usually take place only in the south and have darkness to them. His stories would use irony to examine the values of the American south. Instead of solely trying to add suspense with the style it is also used to explore social issues and cultural character of the south. Which leads me to one of Faulkner’s first important novels “Sartoris”. In Sartoris Faulkner focuses on a family during the world war era in the south. In the book the Sartoris family is one of the more important families in Yoknapatawpha County where the book is set. The Old Colonel, John Sartoris, represents an old and dying out order dating back to the mid 1900’s. His world revolves around his plantation home, his slaves and his

because of Lemuel Oldham who refused to see Billy Faulkner as a relevant husband to marry to his lovely daughter .Estelle and a young lawyer Cornell Franklin married in 1918 with her mother’s wish.That was the first major influential blow to Billy Faulkner at nineteen.Estelle’s marriage was of course arranged but it is also interesting that why then she accepted and wore a ring that he hhad given her with an F carved in gold.Her disloyalty impressed young Faulkner.He was so demoralized and devastated that he did not attend Estelle’s wedding ,his brother John Faulkner noted in his memoir.Billy from that time began to occupy himself with writing poetry,drawing sketches .He knew that was the high time for him left the town as soon as possible.
