Michael Allen Eric Chemberlin ENG.111.HO4:Autobiography January 22‚ 2013 MOTIVATION School systems have funny ways of always getting things wrong. Ask a high school administrator what keeps youngsters in school and their response will probably be as nonsensical as a clown at a business meeting. They don’t know. I am not convinced that they care either. The single most important tool for keeping teenagers in school seems to be the first privilege taken away as punishment. High school athletics

Science Autobiography Science‚ one of the many things that us as humans know so much about‚ yet know hardly anything about it. No matter what we already know and what we newly discover‚ science will always be an enigmatic subject to study. Science has always puzzled me. I was homeschooled from first grade up until my 11th grade year when I went to Westchester Country Day School in High Point‚ North Carolina. I don’t remember any science activities that I did before I entered high school‚ other than

Time‚ what is it really? In E. B. White’s “Once More to the Lake” the author talks about the summers he spent on a lake as a child. The main point of a memory is to explain how one place could make someone feel young or happy. Like my grandmother’s house‚ even though she has passed away‚ every time I go back I feel happy again. In White’s essay‚ there are certain things about his childhood that have not changed such as the atmosphere‚ the people around the lake‚ and the author. First is the

I chose to compare “A Prison‚ A Paradise” by John Jeremiah Sullivan and “Once More to the Lake” by E .B. White. There are many reasons to choose to travel; specifically for these two authors‚ it is to visit a place that has meaning to them on more than the “excursion for a day” level. They temporarily suspend their daily lives to take a trip to spend time in a different environment. Both places they choose to visit can be considered at least somewhat remote‚ secluded‚ and‚ for all intents and

Once More to the Lake is an essay mainly about how the author/dad‚ E. B. White‚ can’t quite seem to let go of his childhood. A lot of his childhood memories are embedded within the lake and the surrounding areas‚ so he cannot help but constantly reminisce about how things were when he used to visit the lake as a child. This seems to take away from his current visit to the lake in my opinion. He does not seem to want to live in the moment but constantly makes comparisons of how the waitresses were
