This book is about a Jewish girl named Annie. Her life completely changed around 1941. When Hitler had started to do the bad things to the Jewish. She had two sisters, Rachael and Sini. They lived in Winterswijk. They weren’t safe living there, so they moved to the woods. Their mother was sick, so she didn’t want to go to America. She ended up in the hospital. But she died a week before they were taking Jewish people from the hospitals. The Germans wanted more people to go to the concentration camps so they had to hide. Their dad went to a friends hiding place because they only had space for one. Rachael, Sini and Annie were supposed to go to the Hanninks. Rachael did not want to go. Sini had to die her hair to go so they wouldn’t know she was a Jewish. Annie had to cut her hair and dress like a boy to go. When they got to Usselo she met Dini Hannink, they went to her house together. They stayed there for about to two weeks. Then they had to go to the Oostervelds. They were really nice people. Johan was a farmer, Dientje, and Opoe (Johan’s mother). They were supposed to stay there for at least a week because Mr. Hannink thought a German followed him. Annie’s legs were getting crooked and couldn’t walk that much so she had to exercise. She really hated to do that. After a year and a half they haven’t even seen how the house looked. And Sini really wanted a tan. So Johan let them go out. He was going to pick them up around dinner. But then Dientje’s sister came and they couldn’t get in. Annie got real sick that day. A nice doctor came and helped them. The Germans came to inspect their house but Johan made a hiding place in the closet. The Germans caught one of their friends. They knew who had told the Germans so they told Johan to kill him and he did. He went to hide for a while in somewhere else. Then one day Germans come and tell them they want to use their house for headquarters. They tried…
The kitchen is decorated with polished wooden cabinets and a squeaky clean stove that shows your reflection when staring down upon it. There is also a fridge in the back of the kitchen and the trash bin resides next to the fridge. Touring the rest of the apartment there is my bedroom, my sister’s room and the master bedroom. My room suits all my needs; whether it be sleeping, eating, studying, or relaxing. My getaway place is my room. There are two twin beds in my room, and a closet full of shoes and clothes. A 50 inch television sits on top of the only black sleek dresser in the room. My room is usually where I invite all my friends over and throw parties. In my sister’s room there is a formal setup, just a simple king sized bed and a beige headstand where she keeps her television. In the hallway there is a treadmill where users can burn off calories and improve cardio. There are two bathrooms in the apartment, inside them are white walls and brown tiles in the tub. Also a mirror is above the sink to make sure people arrange themselves properly before exiting. The master bedroom hosts a bathroom, closet, and a desktop on top of a glass computer…
People can use conventions to give and receive sexual consent through other means than a “verbal expression of agreement” (Archard, 1997, p. 273) to move the initiation of sex from being morally impermissible, to morally permissible. A convention is when Person 1 does Y to express their consent to doing Z. The act of Y is understood through convention, as opposed to the act being understood in its natural way. This natural way may be understood as, Y would express what would be understood had there not been a created relationship between the act of Y and the concent to Z (Archard, 1997, p. 278). Archard is against the use of sexual conventions (Archard, 1997, p. 274) and argues this through an analysis of Husak and Thomas’ argument for sexual…
I lay patiently on the cracked leather chaise longue. The modest room was a fading cream colour, books line the wall near my feet in an ornate shelf, a small desk and chair sit by the wall opposite me next to the iron door, there is a single swinging light in the middle of the room which casts a golden glow over everything and a painting of a sailing ship hangs above me.…
Sullivan, Zero from Nightmare Before Christmas, Stitch from Lilo and Stitch, Mushu and Cricket from Mulan, and Au Naturel from the Minion Movie). Next to my window is my collage of pictures. I have 3 short silver wires and each holds 4 bright pictures; below those, I have a wood frame that has a picture of me and my childhood friends; and my last picture on that wall is my "Alice Down the Rabbit Hole", it is another and different interpretation of the story. Now on to my right wall, this wall is a little different than the rest. My twin sized bed is on the floor right up against the wall, but the wall itself slants inward, right over my bed. My blanket on my bed is an orange quilt that has an old purple floral design on it. It has a retro look. At the foot of my bed, is a short, white foot dresser that my great-grandfather built my mother. On that is where my black Dell computer and my white Google Chrome charge (those lay side by side), next to those is where I keep my large and colorful Biology binder. On top of that stands my Pocket People that I got when I traveled to New…
Written in 1929, A Room of One’s Own by Virginia Woolf has been broken apart into many different view points and meanings that in a whole, affect woman and/or artists. The interesting thing about Woolf’s piece, is that it’s an essay that uses fictional characters and narration that would later be used to debate whether it was completely a true feminist approach to women’s writing and money, or if wasn’t enough of a feminist approach, especially when involving other races. Some of the critics argue that Woolf way of writing scrambled the ideas that were supposed to be taken from the essay. Others believe that the style in which the essay was wrote had no affect on its meanings involving women and society. Such beliefs lead to never-ending discussions on one of the most important works by a leading writer of the Modernists movement.…
Walking into my special room, one would notice in a corner a large brown square dog bed with puppy prints all over it. Next to the bed there is a brown rectangular wooden basket that contains all sorts of chew toys for a dog. From this section, a stranger would know that we have a large sized dog that is spoiled with tons of treats and toys to play with. The majority of the room is taken up by a tan microfiber couch, loveseat, and recliner. Each piece of furniture has a throw pillow and blanket on it. From this one might assume that in this house people enjoy relaxing on the couches and may even take a nap with a pillow and a blanket. The recliner has more spills and the color of the couch has faded. From this one may gather that the recliner is the favorite chair in the house. On one large low to the ground circle end table, there is a decoration that says “family.” Around this decoration is a bunch of different picture frames holding different pictures that include older people to young children. In the middle of the pictures is the biggest silver picture frame. In this frame, there is a young girl kissing a young male. From this a stranger could get the idea that family is important to this young couple that is in love and hope to have children one day. On another end table, there is a fake orange pumpkin with a purple hat that lights up. Next to the pumpkin is an old witch with a wart on her nose and her legs hang off the table. From this, one may assume that whoever lives here enjoys the holidays. On one wall, there is a flat screen TV. Underneath the TV, there are piles of movies that range from sports movies such as “Throwback” to children movies such as “Shrek.” From this one can assume that the owners of this house enjoy watching a variety of movies. The last end table is where one would find a pile of 6 textbooks- 2 education, 1 film study, 1 accounting, and 1 managerial book. At the sight of seeing all of these…

Virginia Woolf authored A Room of One’s Own, a book containing what would have happened had Shakespeare had a sister. Woolf first writes, “Shakespeare himself went… to the grammar school”( 46). Woolf’s word choice of “Shakespeare himself” excludes Judith from what Woolf writes next. This immediately begins contrast between Shakespeare’s experience and his sister Judith’s experience. Furthermore, Woolf lists all of the opportunities Shakespeare had, like “grammar school” and “seek[ing] his fortune in London” (46) then contrasts those statements by saying, “Meanwhile [Shakespeare’s] extraordinarily gifted sister, let us suppose, remained at home” (47). Woolf used the word “ meanwhile” to directly contrast Shakespeare’s mass of opportunities…
The window has blue curtains with a white pull down shade. The blue is navy like while the blue for the room itself is sky blue. As we move along the window wall we stop and turn left again. The wall has the bed frame on it. The bed itself is a queen bed, brown circle headboard with white, purple, and off grey blanket covering the bed. There is a Pooh bear stuffed animal on the bed. As the wall continues there is a brown chester drawer with five openings to it. On top of the chester drawer is a jewelry box, lamp and a lotus box. The chester drawer is about the height of someone who is four foot and ten inches. As the wall continues we turn left again. There is the closet, with white doors that open up. The door has a stand for hats which is hanging. The closet is a walk in with white walls, dresses on the left and shirts, pants, sweatshirts on the racks on the right, while some are on the floor. Next to the closet is a small blue wall as long as your fingertip to the other finger tip. That wall is completely empty. After that wall, we are right back to the…

We drove over the tall, intense swells of Lake Pontchartrain on the longest bridge in the United States, to get to our new humble abode in Madisonville, LA. As we pulled into our new subdivision filled with forest, wildlife, and ponds, I began to think of all the new and excited possibilities I had in store for me. My new house was an updated, beige stucco, one story with a bonus room above the garage. The bonus room was my new room; painted light, sky blue with one big window on the wall and the roof going to a point at the top. I had customized my new room to make it fit my outgoing, bright personality with printed pictures of my friends and I and white sparkling Christmas lights on the left wall and my initials in wood on the right wall. The downstairs is spacious with a black tile fireplace in the left hand corner of the living room which ran into the black granite kitchen. There was two bedrooms facing each other with a bathroom in the middle of them on the right side of my house. On the left side of the house was my parents cozy bedroom across from the soft beige carpet stairs leading up to my room. I knew from the point of unloading the boxes that this was a start to a brand new life in the nine eight…
