In the story it mentions, “Mr. Tillian grew to like his parrot, the more he talked to it instead of people, the more embarrassed Harry became,” this quote proves that Harry let his embarrassment take over, thus, forgetting to appreciate what he has before it's too late. Even if you feel ashamed by a family member, you should always spend time with them and let them know that you love them. Although, when they were at home things were totally different. Harry and his father were really close and even teased each other during…
The need to find acceptance and a place where he belongs is a driving force for Harry. He has come to the realization that he is different, and that there's a possibility that there are people like him somewhere else in the world.…
His parents clearly don’t care much about him and swear a lot and don’t teach him anything. The babysitter is taking the time to teach him about Jesus which shows her kindness for a boy she’s just met. She reads him a book with pictures about Jesus and tells him about how Jesus took all the pigs out of a man. Harry believes everything she tells him and believes the book because it has pictures of real pigs rather than fake pink smiley ones.…
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets start off with Harry spending the summer with his horrible but only remaining family, the Dursleys. The Dursleys are not a very good family. On Harry’s birthday the Dursleys throw a dinner party that isn’t even for Harry. Harry is visited by a house-elf named Dobby. Dobby warns Harry not to return to Hogwarts because something bad is going to happen. Hogwarts is the magical school for wizards that Harry is attending. Harry doesn’t listen to the warning and Dobby starts to wreak havoc in the kitchen. The Dursleys end up angry and imprison Harry in his room for the rest of the summer. Harry's friend Ron Weasley takes Harry away in a flying car, and they go to the Weasley home where Harry ends up staying…
This treatment taught Harry how to keep his head down and his thoughts to himself (mostly). They do the exact opposite to their son Dudley, who gets pampered and treated to every desire or want he has. Though they were raised in the same house, Harry learned to appreciate the little things while Dudley shows his spoiled attitude in his first chapter scene of being unsatisfied with 36 presents from his parents on his birthday (the tantrum he throws about having one less than last year causes his mother to console him with the promise of buying two more at the store later that day). When Harry’s birthday arrives later, he has no presents from anyone, and at the same time, his Uncle is denying him the mysterious letter from Hogwarts. Harry complains outwardly, not about the presents, but about the letter only because he feels entitled to read the letter written to him (and…

Attention- getter: What would you do if somebody came into this classroom and pointed a gun at you as if they were going to kill you for no reason? First thing that would come to mind is, “Am I really going to die right now” and “Why is a person on campus with a gun trying to kill people?” Sad part is, an event like this has happened many times in the past. For instance, the Sandy Hook Elementary School mass shooting as well as the Colorado movie theatre shooting that all took place within the past year[example]. These mass shootings have brought up the issue of controlling who is able to purchase guns and if it is safe and necessary to roam around in public armed with a weapon.…

It was the Saturday before our topic choice was due, for professor Lee’s class. I was stressing, I could not figure out what to talk about. I literally google searched informative speech topics, but I did not find anything I really wanted to talk about. So I went to work like any normal Saturday. I was bagging groceries like usual, and there is a little boy in my way, so I politely say excuse me and the little boy stares at me with a blank expression. Next thing I know, the little boy runs and hugs my co-worker Darryl, who is bagging next to me. Darryl’s reaction was priceless. He was like “oh my gosh ahhh” and I tell him to chill, because I do not want him to scare the boy. So this happens, and the mother tells me “oh sorry he can not help it, he has autism.” At that moment, it was like God had slapped me in the face with a topic, that is when I decided on my topic of Autism in children, how it is difficult living with autism.…
There are those that fight with swords, and there are those that fight with magic spells. It is seen often that the warriors reach their peak early in life, however wizards, with time, see their peak much later in life. But what is a wizard? A wizard is somebody who changes the behavior of matter using language. Language and gestures are the two things that are used in public speaking, and are used in shaping the ideas of those around you.…
Have you ever had a character you looked up to in movies, shows, or real life? I have always admired Cinderella. She is a very well known Disney princess. Her movies have great life morals that we could all learn from. Even if she's a fictional character, the meaning of the story is what is important. Cinderella went through many troublesome times to get to her final destination. She could teach many things if she came to talk at our school.…
