Marleen Diaz English 28 Ms. Myrtetus April 3‚ 2011 Writing Project Two: Final Draft There have been so many things I have believed in since I was a child but have discovered they were not true as I grew up. Knowing that these beliefs are untrue has helped me form my opinions about life. The greatest myth I have believed in was the Tooth Fairy.

Not only is it an extremely selfish act of the people‚ but all the responsibilities are then dropped

Carla Gonzalez Professor Dr. Carlos EAP 1540 5 November 2013 Carrie Movie I am a horror movie fanatic. When fifteen days ago the new version of “Carrie” came out‚ I did not hesitate in going to the theater.

My reaction in the movie is great because it was pretty funny it is a decent family comedy also. I loved this movie because it taught me that I don’t have to look pretty just be with someone I like and that they would like you the way you already are. I thought this was a funny and very enjoyable movie. Any movie about a family with twelve children is bound to be fun. I‚ being fourteen‚ didn’t have many problems with it‚ other than the one or two swear words. However‚ if I was a mother with my own
