    The Beach

    • 2 Pages

    A new sunny day has just begun. The beach is silent‚ but only for a while. Very soon crowds of people will flood on to the beach. The bright‚ burning ball blinds and rises like a sunflower on the distant horizons. The subtle sea sparkles preciously as it strolls up against the shore spilling the previous day’s remains. Crashing against the shore‚ small waves flash the night’s debris onto the beach. Untouched golden sand‚ so soft and smooth‚ glistens; reflecting the sun’s rays. A soothing‚ light

    Descriptive Essay- Beach‚ Vacation The place where I feel most comfortable is a place where I am calm. A place that is peaceful in its own ways. It is the place to go to get away from all my troubles. It is the one place where I could sit forever‚ and never get tired of just staring into the deepest blue I have ever seen.

    AT THE BEACH(another) A draught blew by me taking my spirit with it. The strands of hair crossed my face; the sun peaked its way above the horizon as if it was scared to shed some light. The smell of the salty sea tingled my nose as I breathed in a breath of fresh air. The sand was a mine field of corals‚ with a collection of many different multicolored sea shells; however at the same time‚ the sand was a bed of blankets. The way the sand flowed onto my feet and out to the spaces between my toes

    Saleem Akbar Prof. Ryna May English 207-C101 10 May 2012 Mo[r]tal Law In Heaney’s The Burial at Thebes‚ the protagonist defies the law of the state to observe what she sees as higher law. In this regard‚ Antigone’s actions were ethical in nature for she pursued what she felt was morally righteous. When mortal laws conflict with what we feel are moral laws‚ we should stand up for the values we believe to be true within ourselves. Sophocles’ play builds a contrast between the ideas of duty and

    potentially suffocating warmth. The beach was tiny compared to the resorts further along the coastline‚ sheltered by the surrounding forests of palm trees. It was an almost perfect semi-circle of fine‚ dark volcanic sand‚ with not a trace of the inland civilization in sight – an unspoilt‚ secluded paradise on an island gradually being colonised by armies of skyscrapers‚ strip clubs and tourist traps. There was a humble building near the eastern end of the beach‚ a traditional affair on stilts with

    Poets Wilfred Owen and Kenneth Slessor both explore war conflict‚ while also exploring the dehumanisation of soldiers and emphasising that no where it safe during the war. Owen portrays the men to be “cringe[d] in holes” with “forgotten dreams” dis-empowering the soldiers and making them less of men or perhaps applying sympathy on them. Additionally‚ Owen similarly utilises inclusive language like‚ “we turn back on our dying” to further show and imply empathy to the soldiers for the suffering they

    Bayonet Charge Controlled Assessment notes 1. Hughes uses a metaphor to present the conflict‚ when he describes soldier uniform as “raw seamed hot khaki”. The use of the word “raw” implies pain and suffering as well as being hot and uncomfortable. It shows the reader how badly the soldiers were treated in WW1 as even their uniforms caused discomfort. Every seam of the uniform is painful. 2. The riffle is personify as being “numb as a smashed arm” because it indicates horror of war. The word “smashed”

    Interviewing Kenneth Athol was rather easy and straight to the point. His interview was well said although not thought out straight. He fascinated me the most out of everyone because now after college‚ he works at a restaurant. He earns a high salary as well which is rather good. He only earned his associate degree but already earns a higher salary than most who didn’t even go to college. Going to college takes a lot of commitment and patience and i feel i may be ready for that when i really want
