Crystal Cove Descriptive Writing

Great Essays
Crystal Cove, New Hampshire, a quiet and quaint town nestled on sandy beaches with astonishing views everywhere you turn. Small in size but large in personality, drama, and uniqueness. You can walk on the beach, the boardwalk, the pier and yet a few miles down the road ride through the old covered bridges. The winters are brisk and freezing and you can count on having a good time if you enjoy snow. During the winter, everything is draped in a white blanket for weeks. The trees look like they are lying down and taking a nap. Not far from Crystal Cove, you can travel to the mountains and go snowboarding or skiing on the many snow capped tops. It might be winter, but there is beauty in it, clarity, the kind of thinking that lets you notice small details. At last the spring had arrived, breathing warm winds over the desolate landscape. The disheveled grasses soon became lush, erasing even the memory of their wintry selves. The trees budded with leaf and blossom, and the harsh sleet became soft rain. The remnants of snow had entirely …show more content…

    While passage one by N.S. Momaday creates a nostalgic and appreciative tone with the implementation of heavy imagery, elaborate sentences, and precise diction in order to explain the magnitude and the appearance of the landscape, passage two by D. Brown establishes a cryptic and melancholy tone with employment of rich imagery, compound sentences, and descriptive diction, with the intention to explain a cynical attitude towards what has happened to the plains. Although both passages employ approximately the same methods to achieve their purpose, the authors’ purposes are different. Even though the two authors may describe the exact same landscape, both of them have different viewpoints on the landscape in order to achieve their own intentions.…

    I believe that the school's location within the Cobb County area is close to a suburban or rural area because there is development but is not a major city such as Kennesaw. The previous data collected and my experience from visiting today reflects a sense of need for education in the area. The classroom had approximately 25-30 students in this small area. Although, the classroom seemed cramped the teacher worked with the materials and “tools” she was given. Many challenges that teachers in this school could possibly face is the problem of low-income families [referring to the high percentage of free and reduced lunches].…

    The town of Holcomb and surrounding cities really focuses on religion as a society. The Clutters go to church every Sunday and the one time that they didn’t, well, they were strictly unable. With church being the center of everything, it had become part of everyone’s social life and not just their Sunday life. Even during the trial of Perry Smith and Dick Hickock, the religious aspect of the town stayed with them through it all.…

    When one thinks of two towns, most people generally assume that these towns share practically no differences whatsoever. However, if one can properly analyze two specific towns, Bensalem, Pennsylvania, and Bethlehem, New York, their assumptions would quickly be proven wrong because of the varying differences of these towns. Among these differences are the environments of the towns, as well as the effect of technology on the two contrasting communities. Bethlehem is a rural community that resembles a town of the past, while Bensalem is a suburban township that represents the modern standard of a society.…

    The essay “Dumb Kids' Class” falls under the personal essay it’s written from the author´s individual experience. It wouldn´t be able to fit under any one of the other essay categories depending on how the essay is interpreted by the reader, it could be any of the three groups of essay categories. I personally interpreted this essay as being a personal essay, the author wrote it as it spoken directly to the reader from it being his personal experience. At the beginning the author gives his opinion about how the Catholic school was not all for him, as for other kids, and it isn't as bad for others as some. “Astonishingly, was never struck by a nun or molested by a priest.”…

    The George Leland Elementary School was in an area that I thought it would be in. The building around it were run down and plain. The community was very low income and there was trash on the streets. The community did not have a lot of color and had very minimal stores. Nothing in the community looked like it was brand new, therefore I figured the school would look the same way.…

    “Look at this place, all of you,” Schäffer said to the others, observing the architecture at the front part of the school, “And examine the wonder of this place. Splendid as it is, every one of us can safely agree that it is gleaming beacon to one of those days when the Children’s Paradise was just beginning to make its appearance in the shape as it is to this day. Someday, and I am not sure when, but when the time will come for us to see the Children’s Paradise soaring higher than it ever had, I would like to see ourselves at the forefront of this renaissance. The rebirth of American Catholic Education, its sudden ushering of the Greater American Catholic School System did not end with the beginning of the Republic; nor did it end, when the Great Leaps Westward marked the beginning of the attempts made to expand both Programs all the way to the West Coast. It continues even to this day, for there is much that…

    In the first few weeks of my father’s senior year in high school he was called into the principal’s office and he was told, “Mr. Bragdon, if you don’t start showing up for school I am going to expel you.” See at the time, dad’s single mother of four was struggling to pay the bills, which meant he needed to do whatever he could to supply the family with an additional income. So he went lobstering. In response to the principal, the very next day dad walked into his office and set down on his desk a stack of books and his check from that week. He then looked at the principal and said “Sir, I believe I just made more in one week than you will in the next two months.…

    Forty years ago, on February 10, 1977, the state condemned a school in Olyphant. A few weeks later, they condemned a school in Dickson City. This affected students in the Mid-Valley graduating classes of 1977 through 1987, which is more than one thousand people. Many local residents remember split sessions, and classes in the basement of St. Patrick’s Church, but they may not know why this happened, or how this could have been avoided. I would like you to consider publishing the attached article in Happenings Magazine.…

    Everyone is united for one reason or the other, yet people still manage to alienate other human beings due to the color of their skin, physical appearances or the religion they do or don’t believe in. Citizens being ethnically diverse is an excuse to make others feel left out or treated inadequately in society. Grant was an African-American man who got a decent education but was still treated less than the average white man, it also did not help that he did not think of religion to be as important as the rest. The start of Grant being involved into the society is because what happened to a young African-American man named Jefferson, he was accused of first degree murder and guilty of robbery.…

    To my surprise, I found myself somewhere I never visualized myself being on a Friday night, actually, a place I never expected I would spend any night to be exact, surrounded by fifty or sixty men; of all different races, ages, and religions. I had overwhelming feelings of reconsideration and anxiety flowing through my body. I was wondering if these men would look at me different because of how I dressed or spoke. Nevertheless, I tried to convince myself everybody here was equal, and that I was not superior to the men here were.…
