lives. But we are not sure about how to create our own traditions. We seem to think that traditions must be heavy and complex ideas that had been around for hundreds of years and will be around for a hundred more. In my opinion‚ this is not true. It need not be big or religious at all. I believe a tradition is something that you do once that feels good‚ so you do it again and again. The tale in Frost’s "Mending Wall" can be viewed as an impromptu

Chicken‚ yeah I’ll show you chicken. Taking my stroll over to the beautiful girls table. Well you probably heard Scottie’s point of view on her well the book is pretty popular. Anyway this ain’t about him this is about me. Wow that sounds very self centered of me to say but this is my story. Either way I just walked over to her and well I did feel something weird almost as if my legs were vibrating and well bad things happened. I almost threw up but I resisted the urge to regurgitate all over the

I Love You Too It was a warm‚ but breezy Sunday afternoon. The usual day of fall‚ the leaves were turning; reds‚ yellows‚ and oranges flooded the trees (imagery). Leaves danced around the hard concrete pavement (personification)‚ and then lifting off into the air. I was walking to Tyzer’s house‚ suddenly; a chill ran up my back. Turning around‚ there was a pearly Tahoe. But‚ this Tahoe was familiar; I turned around and walked faster. The chill in my spine turned into pierce‚ throbbing pain; grabbing

each day that goes by‚ I listen to the words of the song "I’ll Find You" and I think on how far I’ve come with my relationship with God. My parents raised me to go to church on Sundays‚ and to say my prayers every night. As a kid‚ it didn’t mean much to me until about two years ago when I hit my darkest days. One of the first verses in the song states "fight a little longer my friend‚ it’s all worth it in the end" and that’s exactly what I held onto during my rough times. I was always told God has

“I told you so” is the phrase everyone loves to say when their advice or warning they give is ignored and ends up being the thing people should have listened to. We all have those triumphant moments of “I told you so” and in my case my “I told you so” moment was extremely funny to watch unfold. This past Christmas break my entire family and I took a vacation down to the beach house in Florida. On the first night all my cousins and I decided to walk along the beach while the sun was setting.

One of the two stories I chose was “What You Pawn I Will Redeem”. In this story‚ there are various themes illustrated but I will only talk about homelessness and heritage. Sherman Alexie shows how Native Americans have been marginalized to the lowest form of everyday life in America. They exist below the poverty line‚ homeless and without the means to live comfortably. It’s an unromantic‚ un-idealistic place‚ where the friends that Jackson has abandon him‚ and as a result of this he finds comfort

In wars‚ like World War I‚ the United States used a draft system to recruit people to fight. They used propaganda like the poster of Uncle Sam pointing and saying “I want YOU for the US army”.

Literature Week 7 Assignment “10 THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU” in review and comparison to Shakespeare’s “TAMING OF THE SHREW”. The adaption of the Shakespearian play the Taming of the Shrew‚ Known as” 10 Things I hate about you”‚ was an adequate representation. It lacked a true representation due to the fact that the original play began with the prank played on poor tinker Christopher Sly by The Local Lord. Watch this adaption I noticed that it had no references to that aspect of the play.

The item I chose to do was my clarinet as my object and the Cittern as my object from The Met. I have chosen these two objects‚ because they have a lot in common as they are both musical instruments. The cittern was made roughly in 1685 made by German man‚ Joachim Tielke. The material used to make this was cypress‚ ivory‚ ebony‚ parchment‚ and brass. The cittern is 24 ⅞ in by 9 5/16 in. Also‚ this was made in Hamburg‚ Germany‚ so it is a german instrument. This was used to play music during church
