cool was that you can have circles of friends and you can place people in the circles that you wish. I have labeled one circle strictly for “family” another strictly for “friends” and lastly one strictly for “basketball and golf”. You can also choose whose statuses you choose to read‚ if you are tired about hearing about the annual family cookout on Google plus you can switch from your “family” circle to your “friends” circle and see what they are doing at the moment. I thought that the circles aspect

I found “The Shrine Whose Shape I Am” by Samuel Menashe difficult. When I first read the title‚ I thought of Japanese shrines. After reading the poem‚ I realized that the speaker was talking about Christian shrines. I only know about Christian churches‚ so I wasn’t sure if shrines and churches were the same.

He is the self proclaimed Antichrist and bringing religion into such a heated subject to begin with was very gutsy. Overall I think that his

Blaming an individual is pointless - only fate can really be blamed. The tragedy of Romeo and Juliet was of course their suicides at the end of the play. Now because this was
