A Cowboy Who Rode the Waves

Do you like traveling? Not just state to state. Bigger than that, better than that. Country to country. You can do that if you join the UNRRA especially if you are a Seagoing Cowboy. I say, especially Seagoing Cowboys take care of the animals on board. Listen why you should join.

First, you get the joy of helping people. You can even help animals. It is so much fun, especially on the return trips. You get to play baseball, volleyball, table tennis, fencing, boxing, reading, and whittling games.

Secondly, you get to see the world for free. I’ve been to China, the United States, Europe, and more. It is so fascinating. You get to see the sea for miles and miles. When you get to the land you get to

He hiked along a river in search for some part of the town that was not burned. As he was hiking along the river he was reminiscing about the town and watched the Trout swim about in the river, he kept on thinking that he was happy and had all that he needed. According to Maslow’s hierarchy of need, Nick was a self-actualized person who had reached each level of his needs.

    The conclusion of Nick’s development is shown in both parts of the short story, "The Big Two-Hearted River". These stories show the end result of Nick’s growth, but also show that he is still growing and trying to change into a better person. Nick chose to go camping and fishing to get his mind off the war and his life, but to also reflect on all the opportunities he’s given, the people he met, and the things he learned. Some of these include, Bugs, who had shown him to how to clean up his plate with bread, and Hopkins, who had told him how to make good coffee during the war. However, Nick made this coffee wrong, which shows that he still has learning to do (Hemingway 140-142).…

    In the locker room are Dan and Jason. I say hello and continue on to my locker. More people come in and everyone starts talking about how bad their day was. It's almost a daily contest to see who can have bragging rights for having the worst day, perhaps they want sympathy or maybe they just like to complain a lot. I find it humorous that a bunch of guys who come in every day to train and beat on each other can complain so much, so I laugh at them and leave the locker room.…
