At the moment I entered the alley, everything turned dark

Everybody has heard of a hero and needs a hero in their life. From Clark Kent really being Superman to Paul in the new movie "Downsizing", there are everyman heroes to superheroes. In my eyes, I see my mother as a hero. She's not just a hero to me. She's a hero to plenty of people in her life. She's my personal hero because of her journey.

Since high school, English has been a subject where I really had to invest a significant amount of effort in order to be successful. The basic 5 paragraph essays I was taught how to write in high did not make an appearance in 39B. Analyzing genre conventions was also a new concept for me.
