Her eyes were at once roguish and innocent. Ueffqo I tried to repeat the name and failed, rather predictably; phonology isn't my strong suit. I tried aligning the sound with the New England glottal stop that I was much more familiar with, and had more success.

of the group reminds me of a big city, how no one is paying attention to what’s around them only pushing on until they have reached their destination. The sound of cars stopping and speeding up again grabs my attention, I realize there is a four-way stop and I slow my pace to match that of the

The morning of December 10th 2011, I got onto my bus. As I got on, I noticed one of my friends, Kyleigh, wasn’t on the bus. I didn’t see her red curls over the seat like i normally did. “Where’s Kyleigh?” I asked the girl who sits next to her. “I don’t know”, she replied. “But I think she might be sick today” I sigh and take my backpack off and set it by the window. I pressed my back into the seat and put my knees into the seat in front of me. I was on the bus for about 5 minutes. When the bus pulled

The Horrifying World Forster Creates in The Machine Stops In "The Machine Stops" Forster creates a world set in the future, where machines rule. In fact, machines run life so much so that human beings, by this time, have adapted accordingly to life and the lifestyle it brings.

The rise of mass transit in the beginning seemed like a great idea everything did seem to go well and it really benefited the majority of Americans. Many people used mass transit as a faster efficient way to get around that they had never seen before. Electric trolleys as started in the article “The Rise and Fall of mass transit” were the start of the urban expansion that came about.

The weeks leading up to my escape from Binghamton, I was in constant fear. Every night I looked at an old Short Line bus ticket to Middletown that had expired long ago.
