Senior Prom Memories

Nevertheless, I feel Hochstraser would stand out and warn me not to be fooled by those fancy objects’ appearance or underestimate little things’ value. She would direct me to look at the pepper on the table and think about the labors and lives cost on the way from its homeland to Dutchmen’s table. On the one hand, a Dutch merchant would be encouraged by the abundant still life painting to invest in more voyage and goods from Dutch colonies; on the other hand, due to the underestimation of the cost and labor on the importing activity, Dutch people yet never realized the bankruptcy that awaited nearby. Thus, everything is “expensive” in the Still Life (1643). However, I wondered if the bread has shown traces of getting consumed by someone, then why not everything? I suppose originally there were five oysters presented in the table, but only two were needed and perhaps the pearl was from one of the eaten ones. I suppose the Roemer was filled nearly to the top with liquor yet the consumer only sipped a little out of it. I suppose that the consumer may not even need the pepper and salt, because, as Still Life with Oysters and Roemer (1642) suggests, I did not see pepper gets grinded and salt gets sprinkled on the plate. Then I questioned: if the consumer does not need the salt, why does he/she have it on the table with a luxurious container whose appearance surpasses its function? Although Hochstraser

The United States is known throughout the world to be a place in which there are many cultures and customs mixing and colliding. One thing that each culture has in abundance is rites of passage, whether it is Births, Bat Mitzvahs, Quinces, or graduation. Each right of passage is an event that signifies a transition in a person’s life. Senior Prom is a rite of passage for young men and women that is indicative of their transition from teenagers to young adults. It is meant to be a celebration of the high school experience; the last hurrah. A gathering of friends who have spent four years of their adolescence together, figuring out who they are as

“When you got to the table you couldn 't go right to eating, but you had to wait for the widow to tuck down her head and grumble a little over the victuals, though there warn 't really anything the matter with them, -- that is, nothing only everything was cooked by itself. In a barrel of odds and ends it is different; things get mixed up, and the juice kind of swaps around, and the things go better.” (Twain, 1)

Standing at the top of the stairs, the savory scent of baking biscuits drifted up from the kitchen below. She could understand why Fiona’s traveling salesman always picked this room. The luscious aroma filled the house with mouth-watering delight. The growling of her stomach led her to the dining room where she slid into a chair at an already empty table.

So began a thrice-daily ritual on the raft, with pumpkin pie and spaghetti being the favorite subjects. The men came to know louise’s recipes so well that if louie skipped a step or forgot an ingredient, Phil, and sometimes Mac, would quickly correct him and make him start over.” Instead of just saying “they were starving” Hillenbrand instead talks about how they fantasized about Louie’s Mother's cooking. She uses detail of the cooking to develop how hungry they are and to show the lack of food they have. I know when I'm hungry I often think about my mother's mash potatoes and ham, and how she puts everything together and cooks.

Once, food had flavor, a unique and distinct taste that was never repetitive or boring.

The paintings of fish and steering wheels on the walls made the restaurant resemble a pirate ship. The odor of fried food and grease filled my nose, while the sound of chaos filled my ears. The sweltering, humid air felt like a rain forest. This was not a very sophisticated restaurant, it was a local joint, with informally dressed people. Once we were seated, I immediately started flipping through the menu.

After a long Thursday of work on the ranch the hard working men packed into the dining hall. Everyone rushed through the lineup to eat first and instantly the sound of growling stomachs and clinking forks and knifes filled the dining room that was silent moments ago. George, Slim, Lennie, Candy and Carlson in their dirty work wear an scuffed boots sat around an old wood dining room table that was aged with scratches and cuts from the many men that had worked at the ranch before the five men that sat around the table today. The men chowed down on roast beef with gravy and garlic mashed potatoes. Lennie was thrilled as he ate his mountain of potatoes. Gravy spilled down the edge of old Candy’s lips. “Jesus Candy do you have any table manners?” Carlson asked with frustration in his deep voice.

When we arrived at Miss McBride’s an hour later, the coffee was brewing and places were set for us at the table with her fine bone china, the antique silver from a chest in the dining room, and linen napkins the color of snow.

The event I would look strongly at would be on the 28th of February because both South Dakota Coyotes Basketball team will be playing on that day. The main sponsor of the day would State Farm as they look to get more attention in little town Vermillion. As the last game of the season in the Sanford Coyotes Sport Complex, the theme of the night is the battle of the Seniors, also known as Senior night. Many people look at the SCSC as a great sporting arena for the students, but few people realize that the crowd has a lot of older fans too. With Senior night for the players, Senior night for older fans will be in full effect. Seniors (aged 65+) will have access to buy five tickets, get two free for any fall sport next year. With admissions to access to

It was early in the morning as Lillian and I got ready for our first day of our perplexing espacade to fulfill my grandfather's request. The artistic golden sun got up like a baby and began painting the eerie, dark and black sky into a bright blue one. The first task we started to do was go visit the cafe built under this aesthetic tower hotel. For both of us, I ordered a “Ful Medames” meal consisting the following: richly flavored beans accompanied by a colorful array of side consisting of smoky grilled flatbreads, creamy tahini sauce with a lemony kick, hard boiled eggs for sustenance, and refreshing chopped tomato and cucumber salads. Honestly, this meal was not so bad as I thought (if you’re wondering why, the most cultural food in this

The package includes one hour of cocktails served with passed hor d'oeuvres, five hours of open bar, a three or four course meal with wine, champagne toast and wedding cake. The meals are made with many seasonal, local ingredients, including some from the sister property gardens. The menu is completely flexible to allow for

I thin that the prom was interesting. I feel this way because of how the Alice in Wonderland theme was excuted. Another reason I feel this way is because the decorations had this crazy and weird atmosphere that fits the dream like qualities of Wonderland. For example, the decorations had gaint tea cups with flowers and cards inside of them, gaint glowing mushrooms, and a giant drink me bottles( a refernce about Alice in Wonderland that implies that you drank it and shrunk) to show qualities of a dream like atmosphere. Most importantly, I found that the food and refreshments that were served to be surprisingly, the most interesting part of the prom. The cupcakes looked like pure weirdness, with the mash of colors and swirly designs, the fruit

Dear future seventh graders, are you excited for the upcoming year? Well it’s exciting because you are halfway through middle school! So make sure you are prepared.

used to think the party life was enjoyable and entertaining, but one night made me appreciate the leisurely pace of home. Every party I have gone to before this outrageous night was a fight between us and these other guys. That night I had noticed I was invited to a fake birthday party , I should of had listened to my gut but that night made me stronger.
