Journal Entry 38: After Lennie I don’t talk about what happened and no one’s cares enough to question me, they’re just happy he’s gone and I thought I would be too. That day haunts me, I blame myself for not watching him I knew something was going to go wrong eventually, it always did when Lennie was around. I can still hear the ringing in my ears if it’s quiet enough; I will never be able to escape that moment in my life. I don’t regret what I did because it had to be done to protect him but it

As the night sky dances with the stars and the blissful silence of the night, there I was, laying on the cold ground... dying. Was there something missing? Did i trully fulfil my purpose on this desolant planet? While I lay there, helpless and soaring with pain, a footstep takes me away from deep train of thought. I struggle to lift my head to see who the assailant is. My left eye is blurry so i try to focus with my right eye instead. I cant make who it is, so i let myself give in to the throbbing

The Outsiders and To Kill a Mockingbird are very similar in many different ways. The greasers in The Outsiders and Scout and Jem were different then the other children and adults in the book. They also share two similar themes: Nothing is as it seems and People are different all around. If you think about it Ponyboy, Cherry, Jem, and Scout are very similar in characteristics too. They all see the same sunset, and you everyone's the same kind of person too, no matter how they are. The Outsiders section

After scanning the web, I wanted to know what some of the people around me thought of the word. I first went to Mr. Farrow and asked him a few questions. My conversation with him was a bit scattered and I found he had a hard time staying on topic, but he gave me some good viewpoints to his outlook on courage. I began with "How do you see this word affect your personal life,” his first response to my word was “I’m so sick of the word courage because it’s so overused.” From that statement I knew this

On October 17, 2017 Nike released their newest commercial “Nike: Want It All”.

Censorship Is there really an age to be grown up? Should being grown up mean you have responsibilities, like a house, a job, car, and the actual age of 18? Is that what it takes to be called “grown up”. In my opinion I don't think that's the case. I don't think age means anything. It's all about if you are responsible, polite, respectful, mature etc. Especially when it comes to foul language. Should you have to be a certain age to be introduced to it? Even when the case has to do with books, and

That's great! I think some Hearties were worried we may not see you again. Spencer's mom: We thought it would great if Spencer's character and Genea's {Charpentier} character became love interests. Spencer: I don't think that would be great. {laughing} I think it would be great, but I wonder what Genea would think about it. Spencer's mom: I think Genea would be okay with it. Spencer: No, she would not. Spencer's mom: I think it would be cute like Little House on the Prairie. The kids are

If you know the requirements for getting in the associations, it will make your life much easier through interacting, external environment, amount of resources, and demographics. The most research question among the three questions that have an impact to me is what explains member entry into associations.

For example, I was volunteering

Society has regressed so far we now have to live in castles with one royal family. The day he world took a turn for the worst. We like to call it the reckoning when some parts of the world froze over and other parts of the world turned to dry desert. A time, where it could be 100 miles until you find a source of water. Even then there isn't that much water left because it has been used so many times by people just like you trying to get water. In addition, as the shells of people who were once

How to Escape from American Consumerism and Materialism We all know we live in a highly materialistic culture in which conspicuous consumption governs much of our lives. We strive to acquire goods which will define us to ourselves and to others and somehow satisfy our human need to justify existence. At the end of the day, we also all know that there’s a trap built into the system: the more you consume, the more you are pressed to consume more because whatever satisfaction possession of things
