Who's To Blame?-Personal Narrative

Once upon a time there was a girl that lived in a little white house in a very small town her name was Rachel. She was 16 years old and her parents were very strict about everything especially boys. She woke up late for school that morning, racing to get ready she forgot her homework on the table. When she arrived at school she hurried to get to first period she was 10 minutes late. Her teacher handed her the homework that she had no clue how to do. She laid her head down on the desk and began to fall asleep. She was dreaming about an attractive guy who she longed to find and that is when the bell rang. She jumped up and grabbed her things. She walked out the door and went to her locker to get books for her next class. She grabbed her books and started walking down the hall not paying attention with her head down she runs into

Whose fault is it? Every day children are sucked into marketing ads and techniques created by multi-million dollar companies. Is it right for companies to target children who cannot think for themselves? Or should parents and guardians be at fault for their child’s engagement with certain foods or product. Multi-million dollar companies have the power to change the world with their advertising of certain products, however, responsible parents also have the power to change their child’s life.

The book The Things They Carried tells different stories of a terrible war that many young men were forced into. One such man was the author, Tim O’Brien. He served in Vietnam for two years and is still haunted from the things that happened there. O’Brien was deployed as a foot soldier in the 3rd Platoon, A Co., 5th Batt. 46th Infantry from 1969 to 1970 (O’Brien, 2010). He had many friends who were killed violently. In The Things They Carried there is a young Native American man who was kind and peaceful and he died horribly.

I didn't like the ending. I don't think it wrapped up the story well enough and I still have a lot of questions that I feel should be answered. I'm still getting used to endings that aren't happy and I don't mind them too much if the ending is written enough since they're more realistic.

Overall, the movie was very good and I found that I liked it better than the book towards the end. The movie showed more emotions and moods that the book wasn't capable of showing, which helped enhance the story in

Realizing my life had become unmanageable took place some time before coming to CityTeam. I was living day-to-day in my addiction, not caring about anything or anyone. Stealing was a daily task for me at this time; honest work was not an option. I was unable to keep a job because, no matter what, the drugs came first. Stealing, cheating and lying became all I knew of how to survive.

After my mother's head was blown off, her body axed nearly in two, people in Kinnakee wondered whether she'd been a whore. At first they wondered, then they assumed, then it became a loose jingle of fact. Cars had been seen at the house at strange times of night, people said. She looked at men the way a whore would. In these situations, Vern Evelee always remarked that she should have sold her planted in '83, as if that was proof she was prostituting herself.

It was shocking to see how the book differs from the movie.I can relate to the readers who have caught the differences before between books and movies. Also, I have never stumbled upon a movie that has decreased an enormous amount of detail from a book into the movie. After reading the book, then continuing on with the movie, I was bewildered at the large amount of detail that was cut off from the movie, or changed the suspense in the movie not leaving us hanging who his father is it was just throwing scene on top of scene and taking the mystery and completely changing the plot of the story I mean completely.

    We are told from the time that we are young to take responsibility for our actions, but there are some kids out there that blame their responsibilities on others. Even though they don’t want to take responsibility for their actions someone else has to take responsibility. When being able to be part of the stories you learn things that you wouldn’t ever be able to learn without being part of it. I have learned things the hard way just to find out that I shouldn’t have been doing it in the first place. Here are some thing that I learned from this situation.

Has there ever been an incident where you were hesitant about giving an apology? I'm sure everyone has at one point, but regrettable, my situation haunted me for forever. Growing up, I've never seen the importance of an apology; apologies to me come off as somewhat ritualistic and forced. However it is the same two words I once thought could never again be used as terms of repentance that could've saved a meaningful friendship. I was 16 years old, and my sister, brother, mother, and I moved away from my father. We drove about 14 hours to Clarksville, Tennessee. Our plan was primarily to start fresh, just the four of us, but this time happier. My mother started a job in Nashville, a forty-five minute to an hour commute from where we

Amy and Nick were an average couple. They did average things together, and had average weekends that consisted of raking the yard or gardening. One day Nick found Amy gone and the house a mess. Did Amy run away? That was unsure. Was she abducted? No one knew. The whereabouts of Amy are indecisive, with many possible places she could be, or many possible situations that could have taken place. The three internal searches that took place within Amy and Nick were the searches for answers, a perfect life, and sympathy.

I never really realized how much I loved reading this book until it was finished. After it was all done, and after hearing everyone’s side to the story, I realized how sad I was that it was done, and how much it touched my heart. In every single part, no matter the person it was about, I always empathized for them and was able to truly understand how they were feeling, or what they were going through. That is just one of the great things the author was able to do with her book. I loved the way she wrote the book and broke it up into different parts showing the perspective of the different characters. Out of the eight parts there was only one I didn’t really enjoy. I am definitely looking forward to watching the movie, and interested to see how the director has written it.

I haven’t seen the movie “Justified”. But, if you like Bourbon, then you need to go to the basement tavern in the Miller House in Owensboro. They have fabulous bands as well. Check it out online. I have a cat (MAX) and have many for years. This is my last go around…..no matter how my girls flutter their eyes. He is left from my youngest daughter’s attempt of starting her first business, a cattery raising Maine Coon cats, to pay for her college. Yep, she is creative and a tad lazy; I guess that makes me a tad crazy for agreeing.

Some people after their expected plans fail, they tend to put the blame upon someone or something else. For example as stated in the writing packet, it asks if someone who is injured climbing Mount Everest hold the guide he hired to blame. The true answer to that statement depends on whether the climber was hurt following protocol. Although not everyone transfers the blame on another person or thing. I realized there was no one else to blame for me getting tendonitis in my knee from playing basketball but me.

I can’t believe it has been five days since Ryan and Sarah went missing. Five days of horror, five days of (Ryan's mom) crying and five days of utter lunacy. To be truthful, I blame myself. Trying to drive a wedge between was never a good plan, but I never liked that Sarah Fincher anyway. Always making MY son do irresponsible and reckless things. It was because of that she-devil Ryan's most likely rotting in some hole right now. Of course, I can't blame only Sara for this. Trying to uncover the "secrets" of skeleton creek, searching through my things was a disastrous idea. He was in too deep and I can't do anything about that. I love Ryan; He is my son after all, but if concealing the truth means he has to perish well, then so be it.
