Examining the Key to Happiness In David Foster Wallace’s graduation speech‚ given to the Kenyon College graduating class of 2005‚ Wallace urges the audience to seek a more open minded perspective on the world. Arguing that societies “default setting” is that of pure self-centered thinking‚ Wallace strives to change the way we all view life before us.

Parting Paths I truly hated the end of the school year. I never really enjoyed my previous summers. I constantly sat at home‚ did not go anywhere or do anything. The summer of 2017 was different. No one‚ would have expected that four hours once or twice a week in an auditorium would be that special. The rehearsals connected each of us‚ brought us together‚ and the only thing left was one final night to enjoy the connections we had created. Just a few amazing people around a fire‚ but it was enough

There was once a goblin who lived in a mountain. His name was Illuc. He lived with many other goblins‚ in fact he lived in a whole town of goblins‚ slimy small witted goblins.

Well‚ it’s a place where all of your fantasies can come true. You can come to this country with just the clothes on your back and hope in your heart. Then after settling here you will have a closet full of clothes‚ a big house to live in‚ and a bountiful supply of money. You’ll be living the American Dream.
