they were an alcoholic. They would read from their alcohol anonymous book to talk about what the meeting was all about and what the organization ultimately is trying to do. They then read a passage from a book that had a different passage for every single day and after reading the passage they would go around the table and talk about how it pertained to their life and their situation. Then at the end they read a passage and end the meeting with a prayer.…

it off, because it meant you had something to hide, and then you would be questioned. It keeps a record of everywhere you go and sends it to the government. It is very seldom used, and when it is used, its for a crisis or very important situations. I dig a hole with my hands to put my detector in. Once I have it off and in the hole I burry it. I can’t help but think maybe one day I’ll be able to burry these memories. I start walking around. I have no clue what to do know. I have the cure and…

As a child it was instilled in me by my parents that I would always have my education no matter what it took. It has been true to this day. I have been forever grateful for the opportunities that I have had as a child to young adult because of them. Although they have helped me tremendously, it would be nothing to them if I hadn’t put in the hard work and dedication that it takes in order to want to learn, excel and grow. I believe that I have done my job to show them why it is even worth it in…

Winter break last year was an experience for me that I will never forget. It is when I found who I was and who my real friends and family were. I went into winter break that year as one person and came out a totally different person. Many people do not know why I changed so dramatically, they questioned a lot. I tried to explain but no one understood. It was a blistering cold winter morning when my mom called me and explained to me that my cousin Leila was going to come over to my house…

Searching for a job could be considered as a pretty easy or extremely difficult task to do. Well it’s way more hard when you’re sixteen, still in high school, and have no other job experience. That was me, and let 's just say that it was a long and hard thing to do. On the contrary I do have a job now, and through this experience I’ve learned multiple things that’ll help me with my life out in the real world. Two years prior, to me having a job today, is when I started thinking about…

Opening with David, the young protagonist, as he enters study of Professor Hobby, the blue fairy is nowhere to be found. Calling out in hopes of finding someone to help, David notices another boy, an exact copy of himself, reading a book. Moments pass as David is helplessly trying to comprehend how this child could be the “real” David when he is standing right there. Overwhelmed, David smashes the other boy to bits in a fit of hatred. This scene from A.I. leads me to wonder if John Keats is…

It glowed bright in my hand, looking almost as if it were on fire. It hummed as the Magic coursed through it. “Don’t!” The man leading the group of frightened townsfolk was yelling. “Release the staff!” “I cannot! It is a part of me! I simply can’t!” I shout back. “People you love will suffer and die because of you!” As he was saying this, a woman is pushed to the front on the group. “Skylor!” I shout, pushing out all my anger and fear. The staff responds,…

If I were given the challenge to take on a project like we received in our group project. I would have to say I would be up for the challenge. The key to a successful project is the team that you have working with you. If you don’t have everyone clicking on all cylinders you won’t get anywhere with your project. One bad cylinder could ruin the all whole project. Luckily with this class, I had a good group that clicked on all cylinders. From my experience in being other groups that don’t click,…

I feel it 's a good basis for what society should be and strives to be but falls short. We made a mostly functioning society off of these beliefs, following laws and contracts. Although lacking are some aspects such as sharing and altruism. I feel that with some people their morality can be effected by their religion, but I strongly disagree with anyone that says without religions rules society would fall into chaos. There are always some exceptions to every rule, but the world is full of…

Piyali and I spent our whole Saturday window shopping. We still didn 't know much about the city, neither did we have a ton of money to waste. New York was damn expensive. I was so done by the time came back at the hotel. Piya sprawled over my bed, staring at the ceiling. Rolling my eyes, I took a seat next to her. "What 's the plan for tomorrow?" she asked. I looked at her and just shook my head. "Nothing, I am way too tired," I groaned. To be honest, I just wanted to sit and relax, away…
