    Homeless starving families roaming the streets, billions of dollars lost never to be returned, and darkness and depression encompassing all aspects of life. This may sound like an impossible nightmare, but in reality millions of people suffered through these events thinking only of survival and how to get through the next day.

    The most recent collaborative experience I’ve been a part of was an entirely student-run production of Next to Normal at my school.

The environment in rehearsal was equally collaborative. Our two directors were students who were also in the show, both of whom very much respected and

    excited about taking ENGL 102 Research Writing, nervous because writing isn’t my strong point and excited because it would mean learning something new. I have heard the horror stories from other students about writing ten page papers and couldn’t fathom the idea of having to write about one topic for ten pages long. I remember when I first looked at the syllabus and felt quite over-whelmed. After about a month into the class I realized it wasn’t so bad after all, and really started to understand

    However, the poem does include a reference of a dead man’s face to the devils. He says that the man’s face looks like a “devil’s sick of sin”. Owen also makes a reference to the guns of that time. He talks about the danger and terror brought by the “Five-Nines”. With such powerful images and connections, one can better understand the horror and pain that must have existed in that soldier’s life. Imagery: The majority of the poem is making connections.

    When we don't balance ourselves to fathom any circumstance, belief, or individual conduct, we add to how that individual, conviction, or circumstance will be confounded. This propensity for rashly dismissing something new or diverse in light of the fact that we're not used to it can result in someone being slandered, scorned, and unaccepted. Our imprudent dismissal of phenomena that doesn't fit in with our own sound judgment can eventually come full circle in injustices and misjudgement, which a

    I know that throughout high school I logged ridiculous hours into their game ‘Diablo II’ which was a top selling game of the time. In gaming the Blizzard Company has created more top ranked games bringing in more money than most people can truly fathom. When all is said and done what is the true value of such a company, how much money do they control in our economy? Who is it that can rival such a behemoth of a company? Within these few pages I will try to encompass the mass of this company, what

    Signs: The Eight Miracles Pointing to Jesus as Messiah Not all miracles are signs pointing to the deity of Jesus, but all signs are miracles. Signs communicate unique teachings in addition to their demonstration of power of God (“Thoughts on the Eight Signs of John’s Gospel”). John, the disciple whom Jesus loved, only records eight of the many miracles preformed by Jesus during his three year ministry on earth. John chose miracles that reveal Jesus as God in the flesh.
