Dear Robert Scott‚ I am a freshman from Seguin High School in Seguin Texas; I feel that the Texas education system is corrupt that we as students are learning to test and not to actually learn. We as students retain information for short periods of time to take a test then forget which is one of the reasons I feel that the United States of America is falling behind in the education system. However Texas does not have to be like the rest we need to take away a lot of the tests and not learn to test

Dear State Legislator‚ The bill you are considering to pass needs to be reconsidered and taken back in for discussion. Go back and think of the reasons again on why you want to pass a bill to not let people have their driver’s license until they have a high school diploma‚ and not only think about the teenagers driving the cars‚ but other situations you are affecting by considering to pass this bill.

My hands are wet with blood. They are crimsoned with the blood of a man I have just killed. I have come here today to confess. I have committed murder‚ deliberate‚ premeditated murder. I have killed a man in cold blood. That man is my master. I am here not to ask for pity but for justice. Simple‚ elementary justice. I am a tenant… My father was a tenant before me and so was his father before him. This misery is my inheritance and perhaps this will be my legacy to my children. I have labored

Jordan Baker‚ a catalyst‚ helped to convince Nick to have Daisy and Jay Gatsby over for tea to reunite the lovers. The static character of Jordan Baker is not just immoral and dishonest‚ she has some good characteristics such as beauty‚ and has a boyish charm.

In the 1920s‚ women felt more free (because they now had a right to vote) and found that there was more to life than being a housewife; Jordan Baker

I was talking about time. It’s so hard for me to believe in it. Some things go. Pass on. Some things just stay. I used to think it was my rememory. You know. Some things you forget. Other things you never do. But it’s not. Places‚ places are still there. If a house burns down‚ it’s gone‚ but the place - the picture of it - stays‚ and not just in my rememory‚ but out there‚ in the world. What I remember is a picture floating around out there outside my head. I mean‚ even if I don’t think it‚ even
