wondrous nature provided by the Texas Hill Country. My first view of the river makes me breathless. Shallow water washes over the road’s cement pavement. Men‚ women‚ and kids break the river’s flow; some sit in fold-up chairs and read a book‚ but most others are leaning back in a colored tube floating the slow water. A giant cypress tree waits patiently by the road; two large nails pin a rusted metal sign to it‚ warning visitors of state rules and regulations. Every river crossing has the same sign

quietly looking into the classroom. She took my arm lightly and we turned down the hall and continued with the tour of the school. Lucky for me‚ all my classes were in basically the same region so I was done quickly. Afterwards though I was alone‚ as most of my friends I knew ended up on different “teams” of the school. I found myself going back to the art classroom to wait for the announcement that told us to go to our advisory classrooms‚ as the art class was just down the

The Rime of the Ancient Mariner is one of the most famous three poems of S. T. Coleridge. It was first published in Lyrical Ballads in 1798‚ a collection of poems that essentially launched the movement known as British Romanticism. The first version of the poem was entitled The Rime of the Ancyent Marinere‚ and much of the spelling was very archaic (old expression).

Many times‚ my family can be hard to get along with‚ constantly teasing and humiliating not just me‚ but each other. We are much like any other family... except we’re Mexican. We have uncles‚ cousins‚ relatives we don’t even know of; we call each other weird names like Pollo‚ Prieto‚ and Gordo; but mainly‚ we always find a reason to get drunk.

My favorite place is sitting on my back porch on an early summer morning. The small concrete back porch sits in the back of my home near the woods and the garden. The area is very isolated and peaceful. There are no sounds of human life‚ cars or anything to alter nature. After awakening in the mornings‚ I remove the everlasting sleep from my tired eyes and walk to the small warming porch. I enjoy this time alone to gather my thoughts and feelings for the day. The old iron furniture squeaks

also just like the pieces of art work paintings and sculptures we as people are also hard to define. I’m not an artist and I never really knew why some paintings or sculptures ever got into some art museums. I’ve seen paintings that just looked like splashed paint on a canvas and I never really understood why they were considered a piece of art work‚ because I felt as if I could splash some paint on a canvas and call it a work of art‚ but I realized that paintings like that really have a deeper meaning

Mike the Tiger On a relatively cool Tuesday afternoon‚ as I took the short walk from Allen to North Stadium drive‚ the hustle of students attempting to gain access to the buses gave the insight that today’s classes were coming to a close. Those selective few whom decided to make that tortuous walk to the commuter parking lot opted to walk down victory hill. From afar‚ I witness the slight turning of heads as pedestrians pass the beautiful cream white arched walls hoping to see him. Every so often
