“Oi, I’m eating the last one, ‘kay?” A voice echoed through the hall.
“Don’t you dare!” I yelled back through the long hallway.
I heard his footsteps thudding on the wooden floor and a second later a head popped through into my bedroom.
“Oh c’mon, I’ll give you the next one.”
“If i had a dollar for every time you’ve said that...” I started.
“Oh gosh.” Letting out a deep sigh he plopped himself onto my bed.
He sat there for a while, in silence, until he suddenly looked pleased with himself.
“I’ll fight you for it.” he said with a grin.
The temptation to accept was irresistibly compelling, I loved fighting and he knew it, but I managed to hold back.
“Mum will be home soon. You have to finish your homework. We’ll get in trouble.” I spouted a bunch of excuses.
“She called and said she’ll be home late ‘cause of the rain. It’ll be quick” His grin widened.
He knew I just couldn’t resist.

“First to incapacitate the other. No aiming for vitals or dismembering either, anything else is fair game.” his voice resonated throughout the clearing.

It was then I heard a strange muffled voice called out to me, I felt uneasy. “Did you hear that?”
“I’m not falling for that.” he said to me.
“No really, I’m seri-” I started with a slightly annoyed tone until a blunt object struck me. In a daze, I heard the voice once more, calling out to me again, and then everything went black.

“What on earth do you guys think you’re doing!” a familiar voice shouted as us, as my headphones were ripped from off the top of my head.
“Hey!” my brother and I shouted simultaneously at our suddenly blank monitors.
I swiveled on my chair to find the culprit.
“Mum! What the hell? We were in the middle of a game. Why’d you do that for?” I exclaimed.
“I’m the one asking the questions here. What do you guys think you’re doing playing computer games when I told you to take in the laundry? It’s coming down in bucket loads out

    The Republican period of Roman history began in 509 BCE after the last Etruscan kings was dropped. The Republic was controlled by the Senate, which was an assembly by dominated upper-class families. This dominance by the aristocracy led to tensions between the social classes, especially among the lower classes who fought for equality in both the economy and the government. Despite these inner struggles, Rome's military power strengthened throughout the 5th and 4th centuries BCE and by 270 BCE they commanded the entire peninsula. 264 BCE brought the beginning of the three Punic Wars fought against Carthage over control of the western Mediterranean. These resulted in victories for Rome which granted them access to the wealth of Greece, Egypt,…

    Julius Caesar Paper

    When Caesar says about Cassius, "He thinks too much, such men are dangerous,"(I.II.195) he is implying that Cassius is smart and can think for himself. This makes Cassius a danger to Caesar’s rule and therefore a danger to Rome. This renders Cassius a danger for the empire because he will not just do whatever Caesar tells him to do. Cassius can challenge and threaten Caesar's powers, unlike the people of lower intelligence who are sworn to the cult of blind obedience, represented by the all famous saying “see no evil, hear no evil”. These people are just the perfect commands executors just because they do not know what to do otherwise. A quality educated populous is the enemy of any ruler.…

    Julius Caesar Essay

    As Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius once suggested “Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth”; embodying the notion that conflicting perspectives are held by different people towards both events and individuals. I believe that this common idea is held true in William Shakespeare’s production ‘Julius Caesar’, discussing the conflict between Brutus, Cassius and Antony, Richard Glover’s Sydney Morning Herald article ‘Take a Moment to Mourn the Mainstream’, debating against the depreciation of the respect over radio stations between generations, and Frank Capra’s classic film ‘Mr. Smith Goes to Washington’, which expresses the triumph of American ideals through the conflicting morals of Senator Jefferson Smith and Joseph Paine. In each we see how the respective composers have used main protagonists as well as various literary and cinematic devices to express the theme of conflicting perspectives and influence the audience’s reception.…

    I could not hear anything except for people screaming “gun!” My face went numb and it felt like my throat was being choked from my inability to speak. My vision suddenly became spotty and I was not able to see straight. All the sounds around me went mute as I scoured every angle around me to look for this gun being screamed about from the dozens of voices in the crowd.…

    People are far from perfect, what makes us believe that our leaders are? Personal flaws often affect ones leadership, but this is not always the case. Many people let their flaws affect them as leaders, and it is difficult to be successful when their flaws get in their way. Caesar was an egotistical and oblivious man, and his flaws lead to his assassination. Brutus was a very noble leader, but he was too naïve and idealistic. Cassius was very intelligent, but he was over dramatic. His leadership is cut off because he always agreed with Brutus. However, Mark Antony used his flaws to gain power, and he became a strong leader through manipulation. All of these men were capable of leading Rome, and all of these men had their flaws. Mark Antony was the most successful leader because he used his flaws to his advantage.…

    When I was nine years old, my brother was almost shot. I was down in my basement watching TV when I heard a noise. BANG! My concentration on the TV was broken by the sudden noise. I muted the TV and listened for it again. A couple of seconds, I unmuted the TV and started submerging myself back into the brightly colored show. Random loud noises weren’t a strange occurrence in my house of six, so I brushed it off as if one of my three siblings broke something, which they did often.…
