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.

For plantations located in the south, slaves didn’t popularize until nearly a hundred years later because of the increased demand for labor and less availability of indentured servants. From an economic standpoint, as cash crops became more of a demand in the south, so were the slaves needed to cultivate the crops (Doc D). Also, social aspects played a role dictating who became slaves. According to Document B, people who didn’t practice a certain religion were taken as slaves. Overall, both social and economic influences played a major role in slavery in the southern colonies.…

In Charles Simic’s “A Reunion with Boredom,” Simic talks about the need for “a quiet place to sit and think.” (Simic 374). In my house, I have a few quiet places to sit and think. But my most favorite and most used place is my basement. I have a beat-up, old, plush couch and loveseat set to lounge on, with pillows. There are blankets for when I’m cold, and when it’s hot, the basement is the coolest place in the house so either way, I’m comfortable. I can play music, create white noise with the washer or dryer, or simply sit in silence. But my favorite thing about the basement is that it’s downstairs so I can sit in peace without my dogs crawling all over me or whining and scratching. Anything I could need to chill out, sit and think is in the basement.…
During WW2 the presence of men at home was to a bare minimum. The impact this had on women was felt throughout the nation. How women would be looked at would be changed forever. They had to uphold various positions that were usually held by men and reevaluate their roles as homemakers. Their lives at home had changed; they were no longer the primary care giver. They also joined different parts of the military. Due to men being away at war during WW2 women were forced to participate in the workforce, which would change their view of their position in society.…
It’s the table, where you sat with your parents, cracking algebraic code and discussing theology. It’s the pillow that soaked-up tears from broken friendships and silenced 3AM laughter. It’s the metal griddle, where you learned about your great grandparents while making traditional Norwegian food. A house is more than just a building, but a place filled with memories, a place that…

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…
This room was my domain, my escape from reality, my room of hard work and determination. This overly heated room was one of my favorite places to be when I was in high school. I let off a lot of steam in this sweaty room. This giant room was where the best and most athletic athletes in the school came to practice and put in work to put a poster and their name of themselves on the wall next to the previous posters.…

Sometimes its pictures, sometimes its lucky coins or tokens, but when people move abroad they tend to adjust their entire living space to what makes them feel most comfortable at home. Sometimes its posters, framed pictures of family and pets, but often times it’s in the details of how you live that really reflect the things that make you most comfortable. In this room’s case, the living room of my current abroad apartment, it is the convenient set up and the scattered trash that reflects the way in which I attempt to make this room feel like a little bit of home.…
