Double-decker bus

school life, I had issues and stress during 8th grade, but I also had ambition and desire to finish it. I decided to sign up for the field trip to High Meadows, some people were grumpy that it was the same exact field trip destination as last year. I did not mind of course because this is probably the last time I see that place. In short, every field trip or vacation had it’s ups and downs. It wasn't bad was that I got to ride on the coach bus, I got to play laser tag and other forms of entertainment , the food (everyone loves the smell of food) and last but definitely not the least, the ride home.

More than likely, with me having an offseason is unimaginable. Playing two sports is not as miserable unless they carry on over to the next one. Do not get me wrong, I love basketball and…

Andrew Smith’s statement, referring to Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, can also be applied to James Hogg’s The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner. Both works of later-Romantic Gothic, these novels deal with the social impact of their protagonists’ ‘selfhood’, or ‘inner life’, rather than how the outward sublime influences the ‘inner self’.
