1) The House On The Hill The rain; its heavy drops beating on me like bullets in quick succession; the wind; it is trying to blow me down… will I fall? Or will I remain unbeaten‚ only to be taken down by those monsters with loud and grating voices; those monsters that spew out foul‚ black smoke; those monsters that took down my friends below me with their humongous claws? Drip‚ drip‚ drip. My roof is leaking again. Soon I’m going to rot away until my legs can no longer sustain my weight and finally

The Old House on the Hill Crimson rays of sunlight speckled through and glittered the autumn leaves‚ making their colorful silhouette seem to dance on the mountain horizon. These fluttering hills rise up from the back of a vast plateau like pasture as if they were titans‚ peacefully awaiting the turn from day to dusk.

REVIEW OF NOTTING HILL Notting Hill is one of the few romantic comedies I enjoyed watching. It’s quirky‚ light and full of wit. The movie itself will bring you into a world where happily ever after happens‚ a fairy tale for those die hard romantics.
