Well a few years after leaving the O’Jays my new group Dunn & Bruce Street has a new record released. Suddenly, I am receiving multiple calls from Maxine to please come to Philly. I finally go and upon arrival at her house, she greets me with a different atmosphere. Her apartment is candlelit and smells of good food on the stove saturated the room; never had it like this before. Maxine has run a bath for me and invites me to just lie in bed for serving. She has the radio on and to my delight, our song plays 3 times in an hour representing high rotation. Okay, now I know why the multiple desperate calls, but this is my Maxine so I’m cool. Soon dinner is served and Maxine continues to serve every possible need I could ever have. I am in shock at the ‘heightened’ sexual experience she exhibits. I’m beginning to not enjoy what should have been ecstasy on steroids because this groupie is performing like a professional. Our song title “If You Come With Me” is taking on a different meaning. …show more content…
I deserve!! Not being able to control my mouth I ask “Hey, where’s all this treatment been before?” I stop myself from uttering, “Oh, because my record is on the damn radio” … Sensing my frustration she stops and emphatically states, “You didn’t deserve this before. Donnie, I have been with you, displayed undying loyalty, put up with your bullshit and stood behind your precious Karen. I deserve to be your wife, MARRY ME.” I arise and walk out the door. I was deeply hurt by a groupie. I allowed myself to commit to her knowing in the back of my mind that she was a groupie… was my reason for feeling jaded justified? Or am I faced with the reality that women just like men are capable of reserving total access until the right
I have lived in only one location my entire life: Edwardsville, Illinois. A peripheral suburb of St. Louis, it stands as the rare oasis of people in a desert of corn, pinned in its own personal bubble. Due to this blend of time and isolation, I developed a natural familiarity with my hometown. But, throughout my childhood, I longed to break free from the confines of the bubble and venture outward. However, this changed last summer, as I walked through Richards Brickyard, our family heirloom, that my great-grandfather, Benjamin Richards, founded over 120 years ago. I felt these childlike sentiments slip away. The bubble that had surrounded me for so long began to vanish, and the picture that it had been obscuring was slowly revealed.
Boxer and Napoleon are two very different characters; they are not similar in any way. Boxer cares about the animals and would do anything for them and Napoleon only seems to care about himself and thinks of the animals as slaves. The animals on the farm seem to respect Boxer very highly but they are terrified of Napoleon and his bodyguards. The animals, because of their respect for Boxer, would do anything for him out of their own good will, but the only reason that they might do anything for Napoleon is because they know if they don't, Napoleon will do something to them, or maybe not give them any food. Although for Boxer this is not true because he is a gullible character and trusts Napoleon with his life and would do anything for him.
That was a lot of money, and I didnt want to let Tony down so I got in the car and started to drive. As I drove the road was empty. I had confidence I was not going o get caught. It was a slightly wormer day out witch might have been because the sun was out. I had the windows down and was blaring music just trying to enjoy life when a cop pulls out behind me.
Once Lizzy and her mother had left things got awkward. Charlie kept staring at me with his "sex" eyes which quite frankly wasn't nice! Chuck and her dad were just having a conversation leaving me with nothing to do until chuck turned to me 'Marina?' I looked up at her 'yes?' 'Why are you with Liz?' Wow I can't believe she asked that... 'Because I love her...' 'You know your the first girl she's been with. Hell we didn't know she was into girls' 'ah. She's hooked up with them before but I'm her first serious one' I smiled at them 'aw I'm so happy for you! I can tell you really like her. The way you look at her just says it all!' I blush at that and look down 'thank you' I smile lightly.
“Petlon get in there,”Coach said. At first I was like what does he mean. I was confused because at the time Eli was a better center. I figured I should hustle out there and give it my best try, so that’s what I did.
On my way to one of the greatest concerts, thoughts were swirling around my head. How good will this really be? Will I make it out alive tonight? Was it worth the wait? The thought that the next highly anticipated song that plays may cause a riot so large it ends my life. I soon found out after I entered the House of Blues, or rather, as I prepared to enter The Rodeo.
“Are you sure that I am allowed to go on this ride?” I said with a questioning look on my face. The questioning look made my dad think the way I was thinking. “I’ll go and check.” I said as I dashed toward the old measuring system they had at Knott’s Berry Farm in each ride. I stood with my shoulders and head down while I was hoping that I wasn't tall enough. Two pieces of the paint on the system fell on my head like drizzling sprinkles on ice cream. Even with my shoulders and head down, I was still five inches taller than I was supposed to be.
“Why didn’t you come find me? Why didn’t you fight for me?” She asked, wiping my tears and letting her tears fall down her face until I wiped them again. “I did try, I tried every damn day up until my mother made me leave to go to college. I tried fighting for you but he, he threatened me, I sold my drum set’s for you. All four of them.” I whispered and she hugged me. “Alright, I need to go talk to my boss about letting me get the rest of the day off and having somebody serve us.” She said and she kissed me one more time. “Oooohhh I think they’re getting back togetherr” Caum sang and she replied with “Shut it asian boy.” and with that she went into a room and left Calum in a bad mood for the rest of the time we were
It's a Friday afternoon, I plan to go to Great Wolf Lodge in an hour with my church. I see one of my friends so he says to his mom “ Hey, that's my friend” I said “Crap” So I go inside to sign in to go and see my friends just sitting in a corner on a big sofa. We are listening to music and just talking then a green bus comes.

It is true in life that everything happens for a reason. It is also true to say that sometimes it is all about being in the right place, at the right time. There was never a more prominent example of this than a traumatic summers evening, only a few years ago.
A time someone used “get-my-way” tricks would be when my friend, Payton would help me, but that always came at a price. For example, Payton would offer me rides to school without me asking then when she wanted something she would remind me that she gives me rides to school then making me feel obligated to help her out. While, I never asked her for rides to school she manipulated me into feeling like I owed her something. Every time Payton would do this I knew what she was doing, but I also hated riding the bus so I would help her out even though she thought she was manipulating me. Now looking at the situation it would have been smarter to not help her out because I constantly felt like I owed her something when I knew I didn’t owe her anything.
Composers utilise techniques and compelling concepts to teach individuals powerful messages about conflict. The novella Animal Farm by George Orwell allegorically refers to the conflict of the Russian Revolution and demonstrates that the desire for power corrupts the human condition, leading to the deterioration of society. It also exhibits that the abuse of language is instrumental in manipulating the ignorant to gain power. Edward Zwick’s movie Glory provides an insight into the story behind a group of persecuted African-American men, who show determination to be permitted to fight for their country. It demonstrates that relationships allow individuals to overcome their inner conflicts, empowering them to grow and transform. Conflict
When my mother asked me to read a book a few months ago, I was hesitant to agree. A stressful school year was approaching, and seeing my friends on a Saturday night seemed much more appealing. When I was younger, curling up with a good book was a typical pastime. Then came high school, and reading was replaced with countless hours of studying, cheer practice, and trying to figure out when I could catch up on some much needed rest.
Karen was “my people” and I had too much invested in my relationship to jeopardize it. I was forced to admit that I was playing and not ready to be serious. What I didn’t admit was that over this night I had actually fallen for this woman but was too scared to try a long-distance affair with an outgoing New Yorker. The next time I saw this BEAUTIFUL woman was in a fashion magazine.
