My parents have been separated for a couple years now. My mother wasn’t happy with our family so, she went away. She isn’t there that much for my family and I. I have three siblings which, all happen to be younger than I am. I’m only 11 years old. So everything is very hard without a mother figure. One day, we got to see her but, not in the way I’d want to. It was a Saturday afternoon of a summer day. My mom and I are at a graduation party. I’m sitting there peacefully alone looking around the backyard
.*sighs* Age 12. I was a happy girl until I found out my dad only had less than a year to live, due to cancer. I did everything with him. He taught me how to live life and taught me things. How to ride a bike without training wheels, how to cook ramen noodles, and how to read a book. My mom always works. So I barely see her. She tells me goodnight and after that I sleep.

From there, what began as a minor labelling dispute that according to a local magistrate could have been settled with
If any given person were to walk into my dorm room they most likely wouldn't be too impressed with it. The one item that would stand out the most is water bottles. I have close to a case of empty water bottles just sitting around my desk, my nightstand, and piled up in the recycling bin. I refill each water bottle about 2 to 3 times after drinking one but now I’m all out and refuse to buy another case of water bottles. I never realized how harmful they are too the environment until this class. Never

interpretation of food’s function. In the following paper, specific examples from the movie Tampopo and Eat Drink Man Woman will be discussed.
