The Creature In The Lagoon

A fisherman sits in his boat on the open sea, alone save for the fish below the water’s surface. The calmness of the ocean is disrupted by something underneath, something big. Fear seeps through the fisherman’s heart as he sees the shiny gray dorsal fin pierce the sun-glinted surface of the ocean. The creature stops its ritual and pulls its head out of the water, revealing the face of a great white: scars from countless battles in the ocean’s depths, a mouth full of lethal daggers, and dark, savage eyes.

Afraid her grandsons, the Hero Twins, would suffer the dame fate as her sons did, their grandmother sent a message warning them not to go to Xibalba, but they went anyways.

It look like a fish but it has two legs. This monster is a curiosity. No one knows what it really is.It should be a fish that grows on the seafloor.They are have foot.The world has monsters just legend, but why there is a real monster?Monsters only in legends and fairy tales, but in earth has a monster!This no one believes there is a monster, but the monster wounding, but the data show that it does not harm humans.What if it was just a new species?strange, how would the world have the monster?Two zoologists were called in to make a professional evaluation of the creature.They agreed that this was some unknown species of animal.It have two feet, two leg,

The scientific information provided by these photos have various claims that for this monster to go for this long through its survival there has to be a certain form of mating which therefore does not in any way disprove the Loch News creatures and their existence. With no doubt therefore, the findings critically give strong support that there has been an animal like the Loch News creature living in that lake. Other people still think that the Loch news monster is a popular myth and a false occurrence. “And those who oppose the legitimacy tries to disprove it by claiming that the photos which were took of the monster were doctored and are of completely other objects” (Cray

After Robert proposes a swim, everyone is ready to follow him, but he lingers at the rear of the crowd with the two lovers. The Pontelliers and Ratignolles walk ahead, and Mrs. Pontellier wonders why Robert sometimes chooses not to spend every waking minute with her. She misses him whenever he's not there. The walk to the beach provides a lot of sensory stimulation: people are singing; the sea, earth, and flowers each gives off a pungent smell; and the seascape appears calm and mystical. Mrs. Pontellier, who has been trying to learn how to swim the entire summer, suddenly and miraculously begins to swim through the ocean, much to the surprise of her companions. Feeling strong and exuberant, she swims out alone and suddenly panics. When she

Another meaningful pattern and function found in studying the collected items were the pattern of what the monster could be instead. One informant stated that others assumed that the monster was instead just a migrating elk or often times a herd of elk that were swimming across the lake. In which with their backs and antlers poking up above the water, it made them look like the back of a monster moving in the water. Besides this, two other informants also believed that with the similar traits between the Bear Lake Monster and Scotland’s Loch Ness Monster the two were related. Another similarity amongst two informants were that there are water caves and tunnels in Bear Lake that connect to ones in Loch Ness, and that the Bear Lake Monster and Loch Ness Monster are actually the same creatures which travel back and forth between the lakes. These patterns of what the Bear Lake Monster could instead be also able to play an important part in the research because not only did a few of the informants speculate that it was a herd of elk or other wild animals. Several other informants also thought that since the Bear Lake and Loch Ness Monsters had similar stories that perhaps they came from the same legends and

To initiate his commencement speech, Wallace begins with an anecdote in which two young fish are swimming along and happen to cross paths with an elder fish. The elder fish asks the two young how the water is, to which the young fish reply, “What the hell is water?” (Wallace 1). Wallace relates his story of the fish to his speech by comparing the young, naïve fish to humanity. The story demonstrates how someone can be so oblivious to

It was four feet in length and first they thought it might be a crocodile. Nevertheless, over the next year, at the tender age of 12, Mary painstakingly uncovered the rest of it, to discover a giant marine reptile called the 'ichthyosaurus'.

However, because childhood and adulthood never exist completely separate from the influence of one another, the sea kingdom of innocence and joy is tinged with glimpses into the adult domain – glimpses which grow in frequency and intensity of curiosity as the Little Mermaid grows older. The Little Mermaid has shaped her garden to look like the sun; the sun has connotations with the over-world as well as with “son” or man (Dahlerup). The statue of a young man in her garden verifies this semblance. Such indications of another world are not given birth on its own, but rather are spurred by the figure of the grandmother, who serves as both an otherworldly messenger, as well as an embodiment of the sea world. The grandmother acts as a mother figure to the mermaids, as a center and a sustainer of a child world; however, the twelve oysters on her tail shows her to be “a little too proud of her rank” and instantly places her as an adult with desires and manifestations of such desires that extend beyond the simplicity and ignorance of childhood (Andersen 218). The grandmother’s stories and descriptions of an ulterior reality power both imagination and curiosity – and the Little Mermaid longs for the day she is “old enough” to give tangible form to her

That’s when she found the apartment on Bermuda Street and quickly formed a few relationships with several men who became frequent visitors to her apartment.

The narrator states that maybe there would be a pool in the next town. There was a pool, but with the turn of events, maybe the fact was not so fortunate. First of all the pool was closed, but because her children were so hot and tired of sitting in the car the narrator begged the lifeguard to allow her children to swim. After the lifeguard consented, she dressed her children in swimming suits and then went to find a drink for herself. When she felt a mother's intuition for her children she ran back to the pool and at first did not see her youngest daughter. Her daughter had fallen into the deep end of the pool. Although the little girl did not drown, the mother was still shaken.

They had many things to choose to eat for breakfast, so I got 1 waffle and 1 mini donut. After breakfast, Victoria, my mom, Edgar, and I went back upstairs to change and go to the pool. We were on one of the top floors, so we took the stairs down to the pool instead of the elevator. I am honestly happy that we took the stairs because, while we were walking, I saw a flyer with an orca on it. I quickly picked up the pamphlet that was underneath the flyer and showed it to my mom. Sadly, my mom said that we couldn’t go to “Gulf

From the rumbling murmurs of the sea lies a mystery sailors and explorers have tried to find and exploit to the world (P), a thought-to-be-myth rooted deep into history that may or may not inhabit the gentle sea waves: mermaids. According to Columbia Electronic Encyclopedia, a mermaid is “in folklore, [a] sea-dwelling creature commonly represented as having the head and body of a woman and a fishtail instead of legs” (Mermaid). Stories of these beings began way back thousands of years ago, claims of sightings all over the world from ocean sailors to locals bound to the coast. Along with the growth of these stories are the theories that make us question what these beauties really were, from either a stout sea manatee to a big change in evolution. The question whether

I take a deep breath, my nostrils are filled with the pleasant aroma of the salty sea air. This is my happy place, this is where I belong. As I sit with my freshly painted pink toes in the sand, I am overwhelmed with all that is happening around me. To my right, there is a family of four; a mother, father, and two little red headed girls that look like twins, laughing and jumping around, taking in the big world around them. The children are in their bright red and purple flowered bathing suits, running and screaming, attempting to get their toes wet in the chilly water that churns back and forth on the shore. After a few attempts they decide to run and jump full force into the crystal clear abyss, unaware of what creatures they could find if they dive deep enough.
