My Best Day Ever It seems to me that birthday celebrations’ become less interesting as time passes. There are no more party hats‚ balloons‚ cake‚ ice cream‚ and the joyful sound of “Happy Birthday.” I guess that’s why we hold all the good memories inside our heart‚ so whenever there’s a bad issue that may come up‚ we can reminisce on the past. In fact‚ birthday celebrations in my family were rare because my grandmother was raising eight children in a three bedroom house by herself‚ and she

Joseph Bodyen’s‚ Three Day Road is about survival and difficulties of an Indian soldier on WW1 after returning home.

Seymour Glass‚ the protagonist of the short story “A Perfect Day for Bananafish” by J. D. Salinger‚ would undoubtedly agree with Dylan. His story is seemingly a very common one; a soldier returns from war and finds himself unable to relate to those around him‚ and‚ without meaningful relationships‚ suffers a mental breakdown that ultimately ends in suicide. On the outside it seems as though Seymour follows this prototype exactly‚ but in reality‚ re-acclimating to civilian life only serves as a catalyst

At one summer day of 2006‚ after three hours of rigorous kendo training‚ I was barely standing in a bus station‚ waiting for no.7 bus that would guide me home. It takes almost 40 minutes to go back home and my body ceaselessly sent a message to my brain to spot a seat on my getting on the bus. Wow‚ it was my lucky day (...or not).

Mistakes in life are like the first time you jump into a pool without knowing how to swim; it allows you to realize it’s not a good idea and learn how to correct it before you end up drowning again. You’ll never learn anything in life without making mistakes first because they are the best learning experiences.

Salinger immediately slipped into his writing career‚ quickly becoming well known for his published works‚ using his experiences in the war to breathe life and ingenuity into his work.
