Our small one story house lies on the west side of my school in Opal Street California. We have a three bedroom, two bath house. Our house is pretty small, but I still love it since this is the house I grew up in. Even though I am not one of the popular kids in school, and don’t have all the new high fashioned things; I’m still very grateful of everything I have.

Furthermore, the ending of Casina endorses the Greek status quo by allowing Cleostrata to stay and forgive her husband.
“We aren’t doing so good man, we miss Veronica so much. I blame myself for her death,” I say to the guys.
“Then how do you explain all the things that still happen to them now?” Savannah then asked me now sounding implacable.
Elliot smiles at them. "What's wrong with you two? You look as though you have seen a ghost." He chuckles.
Carol: (Supporting Grace’s prior statement) Besides, you said it would be alright for us to wait out the storm as long as we were good, and we haven’t done anything wrong?

“Dad!” Was the only word that had rushed out of Russell’s mouth the instant he saw his father enter the room. And, once he finished hugging Cary he then added, “Have you found him? What did those people you arrested say?”
“Sure,” I turned to Ryan and Theresa hugged them then turned back to Ronnie, “What’s up?” I asked with a smile.
“See, you’re fine.” Milo said, smiling wide. Karmen’s eyebrows and shoulders relaxed at the sight of the other girl’s smile. Karmen noted the krinkles the other girl gets around her eyes when she smiles.
"More than anything, I just want you to know that there is more than one person you can lean on. You may have someone up their who you are relying on, but you have two incrediably strong sons who would never wish to see their mother in pain like this.
