I immediately think of my mom. Throughout my childhood‚ my mom has been the figure that I’ve looked up to‚ longing to one day amount to her ceaseless faith and her colossal strength. Together‚ my family and I have gone through a plethora of trials; however‚ despite these‚ my mom’s faith refused to vacillate. Therefore‚ the first of these hardships began in December 2005 when my sister‚ Jenna‚ was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. During this horrific time‚ my mom was forced to not only

Edvard Munch’s "The Scream" was painted around the end of the 19th century‚ and is possibly the first Expressionist painting. The Scream was very different from the art of its time. During this time artists tried to paint realistic paintings. Munch was a tortured soul‚ and it certainly showed in this painting. Most of his family had died‚ and he was often plagued by sickness. The Scream was a reflection of what was going on at the time‚ and what was going on in Munch’s own mind It seemed to me that

Throughout my life‚ music has always been a major influence. It has the power to change my mood when I’m feeling down‚ but the thing I find most intriguing about music is that it doesn’t always end up improving your mood: like all forms of art‚ it imitates life‚ which is not always portrayed in a positive light. The musicians that I admire most have the versatility to induce several different emotional responses in the same piece. This quality is present in most of the wide variety of music I listen

My goal in life is to become a writer. I have always been fond of books. As I am an only child I was very lonely. Both my parents worked‚ leaving me in the care of servants. When I grew older I was a latchkey kid who let herself into an empty house with a spare key. All I had for company was my pet kitten and a shelf full of books.

Octavio Paz is Mexico’s greatest living poet. But let’s face it: that’s like saying William Carlos Williams was Paterson’s best writer.

Perhaps it would be more suggestive to say that in the universe of Latin American writing‚ Neruda’s poetry is solar: a lavish‚ Hispanic ful-mination--like a Tamayo watermelon--and Paz’s poetry lunar: a rarer‚ Gallic luminosity--like a Magritte moon--; or‚ to put it another way
