goes to Halfhill Middle School. I’ve been called fat, ugly,and worthless. I’ve been cutting for 4 months now. I don’t know what to do with my life. I’m just lost. Life hasn’t been the greatest lately. Every night screaming, and banging noises fill up my house. Constantly I pray I’m not next. My dad is abusive, but no one knows. First he goes for mom. Next, is my older brother, Jake. Then, it’s me. I have bruises and scars that I have to hide in public. People ask me why I never let them come over…

It’s a modern classic. It’s a throwback to another era. It’s not great for your health, but that’s beside the point. It’s Coke! The drink, not the drug. However, based on brand’s public visibility, the drink seems rather addicting. Coke originated in 1886, but the brand has stood the test of time and endured (“About Us,” n.d.). Worth noting, it has endured by barely changing. Now halfway through the 2010s, we still see Coke prevalent in our soda machines, our cafeterias, on our shelves, and on the

In the film Blood Diamond, the director Edward Zwick uses the opening and closing scenes to show the socio-political effects of western consumerism in an underdeveloped society, in particular the Conflict Diamond trade and its effects, he uses this to highlight the idea of the ‘boy being the diamond’ within the film. Consumerism is seen to be the cause of death and destruction in the once beautiful landscape of Africa with portrait shots of mountains and beautiful sunsets. In both scenes the director

and what I presumed to be her son approached my register. The vibration in my pocket started up again. Like a pestering child, I couldn’t them shut up. Something is wrong. I needed to answer the phone, my brain kept screaming. My brain and phone were like pestering children that wouldn’t shut up. “Hi, did we find everything okay today?” I said grabbing the books from the woman and began ringing them up. She nodded and smiled, pleased with what she was buying. I told her the total, but she wasn’t

A LAYER OF REALITY “What happened? “Said Ali gasping for air. “Come with me. “Answered Youssef arduously. “Is it about our quantum computer?” said Ali seriously. “Yes.” whispered Youssef. The elevator that down them to the laboratory was ghost-silent. however, their minds were not. After they got off the elevator Ali received a message on his phone. “read it.” Said Youssef.

Vince had a perfect view of the fridge, and watched as the man got up. He slowly chewed on his food, mostly because there was just so much in his mouth he couldn’t. Finally he was able to swallow right as the man opened the fridge. Almost instantly the boy

The camera shot is varied from close ups to medium long shots. When a close up is used the audience can see the emotions on Rick’s face more clearly. He is burdened with memories of the past. This breaks with the idea of masculinity because the audience can clearly see that Rick is in distress. Men are burdened
