Holiday dinners are well known for the staple meats like turkeys‚ hams or roast beefs‚ I find that abnormally too traditional for my taste. What I love about holiday dinners are the warm gatherings with my family‚ the sometimes tottering uncertainty of outside guests and enthusiasm for surprise dishes. My favorite holiday dinner has always been Thanksgiving. I have always attended these holiday dinners without a plus one‚ there would be an awkward exception Thanksgiving of 2004.

again. My parents walk a few yards in front of me. I wiggle my toes in the gritty sand and lift my face to the sky from where rain drops start to fall. We turn and dash into a T-Mobile store. My father checks out the deals and buys a hideous Nokia cellphone for my mother: a hard blue shell and a thumb-sized antenna. Ironically‚ this object that I have strongly disliked since it entered into my life twelve years ago represents me wholly. A fatal fall may damage any ordinary phone‚ but my mother’s

My Feet By Chris Grace Resting on the floor when I look down is one of the least favored parts on my body‚ my feet. The marble-like color of pink and tan blended together and the almost engraved looking marks around my ankle from wearing socks all day make them just make up some of the characteristics I hate about my feet. From the bottom of them being as rough as sandpaper and flowing into the top where it is smooth as a baby’s face to the tops of my toes coming to a ball shape like an aliens

the glimmering blue ocean all come together to make for a memorable place. Vacations help us relax from our daily lives. Visiting Seagrove is a joyous occasion for me every few weeks I go. The sights‚ smells‚ and tastes of the beach put my senses on end every time. My brother feels the same way when we go to the beach. The smell of the salty water gives me excitement the second I hit the bridge on the way to the beach. Driving into the first part of Hwy 30A‚ the smell of sea life hits your nose. I

Lake My head rested peacefully against the bark of the willow tree‚ my back floated on a bed of grass and my feet were gliding in the calm water of the lake‚ occasionally being nibbled by various fish. It was the perfect atmosphere to have a little nap; however I knew that if I fell asleep I would regret getting to admire the lake’s precious beauty on this spectacular day. The sky was as clear as sapphire‚ the sun was a rosy apricot colour and was surrounded by pillows of clouds and somehow my imagination

it becomes too much‚ and I just have to escape from the noise to free my mind from all the routine worries‚ to clear my thoughts and remind myself that despite how difficult and challenging life can get. i think everyone would need a break from the crazy pace of living in a huge city. however I ask myself where the best place to do this or how where is the nearest super market‚ did not have to think for more than a second.

instinct‚ although the way someone looks does not necessarily reflect the individual’s true self. When I first strolled into Mr. Watrous’s classroom‚ my first impression was that he’d be a stern‚ serious teacher. Soon after I heard him speak to our class‚ and even more after having him for a few blocks‚ I found that he is an amiable and whimsical man. My first impression of Mr. Watrous is nothing at all as his true personality. He’s actually quite an interesting teacher and very different from the

Waiʻaleʻale‚ one of the wettest spots on earth‚ the high annual rainfall has eroded deep valleys in the central mountains‚ carving out canyons with many scenic and very beautiful waterfalls. Although my favorite memory on the visit to that island indeed had to be of all the free roaming chickens‚ locals told my dad and me that Kauaʻi is home to thousands of wild chickens. The chickens originated from the Polynesian settlers‚ who brought them as a food source (clearly). But the best part is most of the

_Descriptive essay_ MY BEST FRIEND RADAR When I woke up in the morning I knew that today is the day for meeting my best friend Radar. Radar looks absolutely gorgeous. His black expresive thoughtful eyes are always slightly sad. His moisterous nostrils puff up‚ that is usually followed by sniffing. He breaths snoaring‚ sometimes bearing his healthy teeth as if he were smiling. His muscleous body with smooth skin‚ his slender tall legs‚ his magnificently shaped head

The Neighborhoods and Crime Theory came about from research by the Department of Sociology at the University of Chicago. Their goal was to pinpoint the environmental factors related to crime. Where as Durkheim focused on how rapid change in society influenced crime rates‚ these studies looked at how change in individual neighborhoods affected crime. The research as a whole is known as the Chicago School of Human Ecology. Ecology is the study of relations of organisms to one another and to their
