My brother was raised just like any other teenage boy. He grew up somewhat in church. He got saved when he was young and became a member of your typical Baptist church. He had the blondest hair on a boy that I had ever seen, as well as some of the bluest eyes. His voice had a combination of accents. It was country of course, but it also had a more “ghetto” sound to it. He dressed almost the same as he spoke; Southern with a touch of contemporary. He always had a hat on backwards. Lance absolutely

What were you doing at age 12? Hanging out with friends, playing with barbies, watching TV? Well at age 12 Malala Yousafzai had a blog under the alias Gul Makai, she would describe life in Swat Valley under the Taliban rule. The Taliban are fundamentalist Muslims movement whose militia took control of much of Afghanistan from early 1995, and in 1996 took Kabul and set up an Islamic state. Not letting that dictate her life, Malala Yousafzai disregarded the Taliban's rule about girls going to school

love can't grow, I argue that Romeo and Juliet met and "instantly" fell in love might not be completely true – as evidence by WIlliam's Shakespear's use of dialogue, repetition, and tone. Do they really love each other internally or is it just a crush?

Christ. Thankfully. Second, you don 't "fire" an elected Official. You can hold a recall election and recall her from Office, if you wish. You can bet the next time her position comes up for election, she won 't be re-elected. Whjat justification would you have for "no pension, no retirement, no severance package"? To punish her? For what, a political or moral position you don 't agree with? You just made yourself Judge, Jury, and Executioner. The seemingly smart thing for her to do would be to resign

Growing up in the late 90s/early 2000s I was exposed to a lot of Romantic Comedies. Movies like Drive Me Crazy, She’s All That, Clueless, and Bring It On were very popular in my household and I vividly remember my older sister threatening to kick my butt when I got her 10 Things I Hate About You tape stuck in the VCR. To this day these “feel good” movies never fail to make me feel a weird sense of nostalgia with their overly-perky main characters, quirky plotlines and their movie soundtracks that

life when he was about twenty years old during which he had to choose the lesser of two evils. Many years later, the episode seems to still haunt him. The story takes place at some time during the five unhappy years Orwell spends as a British police officer in Burma. He detests his situation in life, and when he is faced with a moral dilemma, a valuable work animal has to die to save his pride.{3} Orwell is an unhappy young policeman who lives in mental isolation.{4} He hates British imperialism

As a kid I always liked music. I got my first iPod when I was eleven years old. My first song was “Chop Suey!” by System of a Down, still one of my favorite songs to listen to in almost any situation ranging from trying to concentrate to just a chill-down song. My love for music has evolved over the years, being exposed to different genres of music such as rap/hip-hop and pop and I enjoy both. The only genre of music I don’t like and fully despise is country. I hate country music. But my favorite

It was a hot summer day when my family and I left our small, stuffy apartment in Boston. We packed all our belonging into a tiny U-haul truck and began our drive to the great state of Wisconsin. Without stopping we drove for what seemed like a whole day till we go the the town of Cleveland, Ohio. There we stopped at Burger King. The food there wasn’t the best, it could never beat mama's homemade lasagna. After that we slept at a nearby Motel 6. I hate sharing a bed with my younger brother Oliver
