As humans we all want to understand everything that happens in the world around us. Either our friends are going through some drama or our family members are going through some hard times, we always want to know the who, what , where, when, why, and how. In the short story “Stop The Sun” by Gary Paulsen it's Terry, the main character, trying to figure out why his dad gets stuck in these nightmares or flashbacks while still maintaining to be awake. Terry learns it was from the Vietnam war and that it was Vietnam syndrome that gave him that, but it took him until when he gets embarrassed in a hardware store to try to understand what causes this with his dad. He soon finds out that his dad experienced things nobody would understand, but Terry tries to know every detail that happened to him in Vietnam. Terry learns that he can't understand even when he reads through books, goes to a teacher, or even talks to his dad. The lesson this story is telling us is that we can't understand everything that happens but we can at least try. My 3 reasons to prove this are that Terry helps his dad go through it, he learns that nobody could understand what happened there and Terry tries to find out what happened.

At Scott High School, everybody knows everybody. We all know the different friend groups, who is cool and who is lame, everything you could possibly want to know. This all changed when suddenly, their was a new girl came. She came randomly and like most new kids in a small town, everybody wanted to know everything about her. She wasn't like the others, her personality was different, her looks and hobbies were different, even her friends and family were different. Little did we know she would fit into this little town just like the rest of us.

When you’re a child, you get to understand your culture. You live with it everyday, but when you grow up, things change in your life that might make you experience new things. That’s what happened to Sundara, when she found something else that was new and exciting for her .

The sun is shining radiantly, signifying another great day. The smell of the fresh, budding flowers indicates that spring is coming. The pollen spreads through the warm, moist air, attracting the attention of swarming bees. Sundoisa was just perfect, but a hero is needed to guarantee that. Alexander was the knowledgeable hero everyone depended on. Citizens describe him as independent, brave, and invincible. It was normal for him to face typical villains, but today was something far worse. As Alexander and his sister, Piper stopped by the cafe to get some coffee, he heard a terrified scream on the top of the town’s tower. Without hesitation, Piper and Alexander, quickly flew towards the tower with all their might.

Sollux was also a demon; a yellow-eyed demon, to be specific. That always amused the Captor though, due to the fact that his eyes were not yellow; but red and blue. There was an absense of pupils and irises, giving him an almost blind look, but the electricity that ran in his eyeballs gave away the fact that he was a demon. No matter, though. Anyone who would be able to tell that Sollux was a demon would almost immedietly die of internal bleeding. Due to the yellow-eyed demon, of course. Causing internal bleeding with merely a snap of the fingers wasn't his only power though, oh no. If you thought that, you are beyond wrong. He can make and manipulate flame, electricity (which in fact, emits from his eyes) and wind. Possessing humans was also a part of the list of powers that he containes, along with manipulating deams in order to communicate with people and teleportation.

The book I read for summer reading this year was I’ll Give You The Sun by Jandy Nelson. This book was recommended to me last year by a close friend who wouldn’t stop gushing on and on about how amazing this book was. I enjoy reading books in different perspectives so when I found out that this book was written in that style I had to get my hands on it. I started reading this book mid July and finished it by the end of the month.

There was a noticeable shift in temperature as the sun began its slow descent toward the horizon, the impending dusk transforming the western sky from faded blue to an artist’s palette of muted pink and orange tones. Across from the aquatic center, Tom and Dennis loitered at a bus stop, their teenage attire helping them to blend into the urban environment. However, despite his outwardly composed appearance, Tom was anything but calm. His eyes scanned the street, searching for any sign of their suspect. Tyrell Carson was an unknown quantity, and therefore, he needed to stay alert and not become too complacent. While Booker had voiced a certain amount of skepticism, Tom knew all too well the dangers of dealing with teenage felons, and he

" Y'ARE very snug in here," piped old Mr. Woodifield, and he peered out of the great, green leather armchair by his friend the boss's desk as a baby peers out of its pram. His talk was over; it was time for him to be off. But he did not want to go. Since he had retired, since his... stroke, the wife and the girls kept him boxed up in the house every day of the week except Tuesday. On Tuesday he was dressed and brushed and allowed to cut back to the City for the day. Though what he did there the wife and girls couldn't imagine. Made a nuisance of himself to his friends, they supposed ... Well, perhaps so. All the same, we cling to our last pleasures as the tree clings to its last leaves. So there sat old Woodifield, smoking a cigar and
