discussing their experiences on the boats. This shows the ignorance of the British as they did not evacuate the women and children sooner. Further pictures of the Japanese invading Singapore prove that the British were wrong and were now in full surrender as the Japanese were now in control‚ celebrating and in triumph. The photographs of the women in camps bowing to the Japanese‚ under their command‚ show the humiliation‚ challenges and hardships these women faced. The projected images of the starving male

Francine Prose’s‚ I Know Why the Caged Bird Cannot Read‚ proves many points about literature and the effect it has on students. I agree with Prose in such a sense that I believe students should read literature‚ not to get a better understanding of the “behind-the-scenes” of the story‚ or because it was assigned to them‚ but because they want to read it and that they will actually read the story thoroughly‚ understand it‚ and apply it to themselves and their life. I have taken English classes where

Since its original publication in 1930‚ the novel As I Lay Dying by William Faulkner has drawn much exploration and critique. Though this analysis is very far reaching and broad in topic‚ one interesting route of investigation is the novel ’s connection to the Old Testament. One does not have to be a Christian to study the similarities in theme; there are very many occurrences of biblical subject matter and correlation‚ these having been studied by student and scholar alike.

Do people accomplish more when they are allowed to do things their own way? Being able to do things your own way is more accomplishing than any other way. Every person is unique in the way he or she learns and does things. There are examples I have taken from the invention of the rocket and its impact on science‚ the accomplishments of the Beatles‚ and the formation of the United States. By doing it their way‚ these people have had a significant influence on our world today. During the 1900s

As a writer‚ I have grown older and wiser since my semester in Comp I and sometimes wish that I could take the skills I know now and apply them to my writing back then. I learned so much in Comp I and improved as a writer and student because of it. Comp I taught me how to organize my time‚ to put more emphasis on grammar‚ and to work hard to get the grade. Comp. I helped me improve my organization skills. I had so much trouble in the beginning

Now That’s What I Call Music‚ Piracy! I bought my first CD when I was about 10 years old. My mom had drove me to Target and allowed me to purchase one CD of my choosing; I chose Now 11. I spent what felt like hours scouring the aisles of the store looking for the 11th edition of Now That’s What I Call Music and finally found it on the shelf. I remember being filled with excitement and anticipation as we drove home; I was so anxious to put it into my CD player. I remember the only reason I wanted

I am currently reading I Hate Myselfie‚ a biography written by Shane Dawson.. There are two hundred twenty-four pages in this book. According to a review on Amazon‚ “Love this book. Shane is a hilarious‚ albeit slightly demented‚ freaking genius!!! His stories are always funny and always slightly embarrassing.” I think the intended audience for I Hate Myselfie would be ages 16-18+‚ and Shane Dawson fans. The reason I think this‚ is because there are so many inappropriate and hilarious scenarios.

Good afternoon‚ ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for considering me to be your next class president. Since freshman year‚ I have been a passionate advocate for our student body. When a food poisoning epidemic broke out on campus‚ I crafted the petition to demand better service from our food providers and better oversight from school administrators. It was unacceptable for the health of our peers to be compromised by consuming the food in our own cafeteria. Many of you agreed with me‚ and the petition
