Culp's Hill

In the short story by Ernest Hemingway, "Hills Like White Elephants," a couple is delayed at a train station en route to Madrid and is observed in conflict over the girl's impending abortion. In his writing, Hemingway does not offer any commentary through a specific character's point of view, nor, in the storytelling, does he offer his explicit opinions on how to feel or think about the issues that emerge. The narrative seems to be purely objective, somewhat like a newspaper or journal article, and

most congested in town, and the streets are not safe to walk late at night. Fortunately, I wake every morning to the most beautiful sun lit house. I sit on my porch sipping coffee, while I drink in an atmosphere that steals my breath away. Rolling hills lay before me that undulate until they crash into golden purple mountains. Oh how they are covered in spectacular fauna, ever blooming foliage, and trees that are heavy with pungent fruit.

The next few hours were filled with steps to improve my balance and comfort until I was riding up and down small hills comfortably with decent control of the board. Then Tanner decided that I was ready for a real hill, I was hesitant at first but he convinced me and I soon found myself looking down a hill and questioning what I had done to put myself if this position. Before I really had time to think about it I was going. I gained speed quickly, I could see

My Blog About Peak In my book called Peak there is a character called Peak I think the 3 adjectives my character and I have in common are that we are determined, dedicated, and cautious. In this blog I will be talking in depth on each one. First let me give a quick intro. The book Peak is about a kid who is given the opportunity to climb Mount Everest, and he is trying to summit it. I think that my character and me share the trait of determination because; when I am training I am determined to

allegory, or symbolism, is alive and useful in both history and present day. "Hills Like White Elephants", "A Rose For Emily", and "Where Are You Going, Where have you been?" are all fictional short stories, with numerous amounts of allegory, or symbolism, to be analyzed by the use of quotes from each story, and all with both a short term symbolic meaning and a long term overall theme. I was intrigued by all of the symbolism in “Hills Like White Elephants”. At first, I did not realize the symbolic meaning

order, check their smartphones, eat, and I wonder why they do not look up, face each other and genuinely communicate. What I perceive, are men and women living not with, but next to each other. This is exactly what I imagined when I read Hemingway’s “Hills Like White Elephants”. A couple waiting to catch a train and as they sit and drink some beers, they start talking about Jig’s pregnancy and the option of abortion. However, all I can hear is silence because they simply do not speak the same language

the basics down, we must keep riding the hills to get better. We rode on two hills called the EZ rider and the terrain. The EZ riders is more for beginners, it’s not as steep as other hills, wider trails, and easier chair lifts to get off. The terrain is a little harder it has jumps, rails, and other obstacles, steeper than most hills, and faster chair lifts. Riding the same hills repetitively slowly became tiresome. With even switching from hill to hill it felt like I was making the same movements

happened. The big time has come. Me and my cross country teammates are all getting ready for our big meet. The meet we all were riding to was Cascade aka known as the “bitch ditch” because one of the enormous hills we go up this little hill and go straight down then up the other big hill again. Right after I got ready I came outside to get on the bus. I could feel the sun beating the hotness right on me and my sweat dripping right off of me.

“All right. I was trying. I said the mountains looked like white elephants. Wasn’t that bright?” “I wanted to try this new drink: That’s all we do isn’t it? - Look at things and try new drinks? “I guess so”. “The girl looked across at the hills. “They’re lovely hills,” she said. “They don’t really look like white elephants. I just meant the coloring of their skin through the trees”. (Hemingway 590) There seems to be a disconnection between both individuals. On one hand they seem to be calm, cool, and
