chewing with their mouth closed‚ and getting another when their drink is gone? Honestly‚ is that too much to ask for? When I go to the movies‚ I want to enjoy it‚ not to listen to three people smacking their gum obnoxiously for the duration of ‘Maze Runner’. At first I turned around‚ but then decided to ignore them rather than yelling at them in the middle of the movie. But‚ unfortunately the sound seemed to grow‚ so I turned around and shot a look of annoyance. They must have seen or their gum finally

Robert G Scheiner’s grandfather was the definition of a hunter-- someone who hunts game-- but he was also Robert’s definition of a hunter-- someone who can shoot a rifle and someone who thinks killing innocent creatures is second nature. He was harsh‚ but not so much in a way that you could judge him. Hunting is something he’s probably grown up doing and he doesn’t see it as a cruel thing to do. Scheiner’s cousin is also the definition of a hunter‚ like his grandfather‚ and he has no problem with

Evidence also shows that Newton was the first to establish the general method called the "theory of fluxions" was the first to state the fundamental theorem of

If you were to go to the library and look in the science fiction section you would find an amazing novel called The Scorch Trials. This is a sequel to The Maze Runner also by James Dashner. In my opinion the major universal theme in this book is survival because the Gladers are tested to see if they can survive the harsh conditions of the Scorch. The novel is trying to inform people that in life you have to work hard for your goals‚ in this case the cure to a disease called the Flare. (“Thomas went
