I strongly agree with the statement “there is no literature without conflict”. It applies well to the play Antigone by Jean Anouilh.

Conflicts do not have to be between two people. A good example would be whether or not to obey the law‚ when Antigone decides whether she should take the risk and try to bury her deceased brothers.

That would probably mean the teachers having a day of from work‚ so I guess you all know where you would all be. Sitting on the lounge flicking the T.V remote.

I slowly slip out of bed still clutching my blanket for some warmth. I climb down the ladder and as soon as me feet touch the ground I quickly jump onto the carpet. The floor is like a sheet of frozen ice. No floor heating either. Great! Well‚ at least something can keep me awake in the morning at quarter to six. I’m just about to

Growing without Parents Sometimes I don’t understand why people take their parents for granted. I see that not everybody appreciate what parents do in order to get what you want or what are your needs. I just don’t understand why?
