A Holiday from Hell This holiday is no ordinary holiday; it was a holiday from hell. So let me tell you about these dreadful few weeks. I was on a nice peaceful holiday by myself‚ going fishing every morning whilst drinking Crown Lager. Then I came across a fish. It looked like some sort of three eyed creature. Now this three eyed creature was so unusual. It looked like the one you often see in the Simpsons but instead the colour was white. Just white‚ no other colours except white. So I went

Health Care Hell Social Welfare Health Care Hell In all the articles I read about health care‚ one thing is obvious- no one is happy. I focused on the article‚ “Employees Without Health Care Coverage Looking to Exchanges” and found that it’s not only the unemployed that are uninsured‚ but also regular people with regular jobs. In my opinion‚ greedy business owners would rather save money than make sure all their employees have health insurance‚ and this perfectly shows the exploitation

Heaven is the home of the righteous whereas Hell is its opposite according to religious teachings; most arguments supporting the evidence of Hell and Heaven are based on religious beliefs.

On the Road by Jack Kerouac has many themes. One theme that stood out was the rebellion against Corporate America. The main characters for this theme were Dean Moriarty‚ Sal Paradise‚ and Marylou. Each of them had behaviors that conflict with an ideal‚ working American. These characters also represent a longing for something they want‚ but can’t find or are incapable of getting.

Why do you think McCarthy has chosen not to give his characters names? How do the generic labels of “the man” and “the boy” affect the way you /readers relate to them? While reading The Road‚ a novel written by Cormac McCarthy‚ I was jerked from the warmth‚ comfort‚ and safety of my home and thrown into a cold‚ dark‚ and desolate world‚ walking alongside “the man” and “the boy”. McCarthy composes his work so graphically that readers are drawn right into the story. I believe Cormac McCarthy

Experiencing Through a Story Living in a post-apocalyptic world would leave one feeling terrified‚ alone‚ and on the brink of going mad‚ but it is hard to imagine these feelings to the actual extent. In the book The Road‚ McCarthy is able to draw the readers in for them to experience the real emotions of living in a post-apocalyptic world.

The Environment Is Going To Hell This is the litany: Our resources are running out. The air is bad‚ the water worse. The planet’s specis are dying off-more exactly‚ we’re killing them -at the staggering rate of 100‚000 per year‚ a figure that works out to almost 2000 species per weak‚ 300 per day‚ 10 per hour‚ another dead species every 6 minutes. We’re trashing the planet‚ washing away the topsoil‚ paving over our farmlands‚ systematically deforesting our wildernesses‚ decimating the biota‚ and

The short story “Hell-Heaven” was an excellent read that incorporated many aspects of America’s culturally diverse society. For the entire existence of the United States‚ the country has been a place of convergence for many cultural backgrounds. This convergence of cultures can cause friction amongst families trying to adapt to American life. In “Hell-Heaven” Usha and her mother‚ referred to as Boudi‚ grow apart from each other as their cultural upbringings clash with each other. Boudi‚ a Bengali
