What does the word time mean? The definition of time is the continued progress of existence and events in the past, present, and the future. People cannot see time but the effects happen to everyone and everything like humans, animals, and nature. In E.B. White’s essay “Once More to the Lake”, time has affected his beloved vacation spot from his childhood the lake, roads, and camp grounds have changed since 1904.

In the short story “Greasy Lake” the narrator, our protagonist, describes himself as a 19-year-old rebel, but as the story progresses, we learn how it is all a façade to try to be like the rest of the kids his age. What started off as a joke to who he thought was his friend Tony Lovett, turned out to be a life lesson that would crash down his false image of a bad boy.

It was mid September 2016 we were on our making our way to Lake Hamilton. An hour and a half later we arrived, it had been my first time in Lake Hamilton ever.

“Yeah, sure, nice try, Justin,” said Conner, folding his arms, leaning back in his chair.

It was just a normal, hot summer, that day. After debating what activity my family and i should do we chose something simple. Shaved Ice. Where we live there wasn’t much. There were a few stores, a small crummy park, and a small portion of so called restaurants. However there was one great thing about this community...Hobo Joe’s.
