Shelly: A Fictional Narrative

Standing there opening the door she looks over to see Michael looking intently at the bushes surrounding the house and cars park in the driveway’s nearby. Opening the door, she holds Michaels hand as she guides him inside, her neat modern furniture and TV first catching Michaels eye. Guiding him to the couch she sees someone out of the corner of her eye. As she looks up she sees her roommate dressed in jeans and a comedic t-shirt. His face frozen in disbelief.

“Ok that makes sense but don’t you get bored being by yourself all the time?”

“All I know is that as long as we get to stay together, everything will be alright, I promise.”

The narrative that I picked was about a lady by the name of Terri Rosen, she is a Crossfit coach as well as a Krav Maga instructor. In the video she talks about how being a coach has broadened her horizons in life. She has became a business woman owning three gyms as well as she has became a teacher impacting peoples lives by showing them the ways to be fit. I found this narrative interesting because i have also recently started my journey in the exciting life of Crossfit and I look forward to one day maybe owning my own box (crossfit term for gym) and impacting peoples lives for the better by giving them the ever growing gift of fitness. In the Narrative she spoke about how the ownership of her gym has changed her literacy because she now

“Mom, just relax. Everything is okay; it isn’t what it seems. I’ll explain from the very beginning.”

"How would you know, Dax? You're not inside my head," He turned three fourth of a way, not enough to fall over. His hands that were in his pocket were now out in forms of fists, "Is it because I'm not an attention seeker like you, or maybe it's just because I'm a

With a strained smile, he turned and placed a comforting arm around the young Latino’s shoulders. “So this is it. Home sweet home.”

Although Allie was happy that she would see her cousin and her grandparents while in Charleston,

Go down Moses” is one of the many slave spiritual songs reflecting how slaves felt during their time of slavery. As many of the slave spiritual songs, it reflects the feelings and desires of a better life many slaves wanted. The song calls for Moses; the Bible tells the Exodus story; God commands Moses to go to the Pharaoh and give him a very clear message on His behalf “let my people go”. The Israelites were held in captivity in Egypt, therefore God command the Pharaoh to let them free from slavery. God chose Moses to free his people; so Moses did as God had told him to, and went to the Pharaoh and demanded that they be put in liberty. After, he took the Israelites out of Egypt to the dessert where they live for 40 years. The song “Go down

“Yes, but thats not the point. You’ve made yourself noticed twice today. Thats not good.”

It was on July 22, 1975, I can remember it as vividly as if it was yesterday. I was having lunch with my 2-year-old goddaughter, Tiare, and suddenly a fire broke out in our apartment. We tried to find a way out but the fire escape had already collapsed. I went to the balcony and found a crowd of people, pedestrians, firemen, policemen and even photographers. Everyone was hustling to help us but it was nearly impossible to reach us on the upper floor. Eventually a firefighter came to rescue us. As they were placing a ladder, the balcony suddenly fell. I grabbed the firefighter’s legs as he held onto the ladder. In a glimpse of an eye I found myself mid-air with nothing to do but pray that my daughter would be fine as she we were just inches apart. This is my story, I am Diana Bryant. I’ve heard plenty of conversations about the pictures that were taken of me in this

The “fall” of the Roman Empire did not occur all at once. The Roman Empire was divided into the Western half and the Eastern half. The Western Roman Empire collapsed in late fifth century CE, approximately 476 CE. However, the Eastern Roman Empire lasted nearly a millennium longer until it was conquered in 1453 (Livius, 2011). Various factors played a role in the fall of the Western Empire, and why the Eastern Empire outlived it.

"Sure you are. You're weak on logic, that's the trouble with you. You're like the guy in the story who was caught in a sudden shower and Who ran to a grove of trees and got under one. He wasn't worried, you see, because he figured when one tree got wet through, he would just get under another one."

Warming seas and melting ice are the consequences of global warming which is the heating of Earth caused by greenhouse gasses trapped in Earth’s atmosphere. Global warming causes the heating of Earth’s seas, and when the water molecules in these bodies increase in temperature, they thermally expand which causes the sea to rise. The heat is also causing the melting of Earth’s ice sheets, and when the ice turns to water, it causes the sea to rise as well. Note that the water does not rise evenly. The sea level may increase in some areas as it may decrease in other areas. Sea level rise is inevitable because of the greenhouse gasses that are trapped in the atmosphere, they will always increase sea level to some degree. However, the decisions we
