Anyone lived in a pretty how town

funniest thing about the town of Brattleboro was that it was impossible to not be creative. Everywhere you could possibly look there would be something that you could base a poem or painting off of. Everyone you met could be a character in some amazing novel. Every song you hear could allow you to create more music. This entire town oozed with art. Even the school was prominently people who one day would be an artist of sorts. There were trees everywhere. After all, the town did have a law…

homeschooled and never even had the option of going to a public school. My parents are both southern and really had an emphasize on teaching us kids manners and giving us a proper educational start. I grew up in a town called Uniontown which was just south of Pittsburgh. The area i lived in was pretty rough and the educational system was not the greatest, another reason my parents homeschooled me.…

Butler County, like most sparsely populated counties in the South, has its small towns and villages where everyone knows everyone else, and the town of Ridgeville is not any different; we rarely see anyone we don‘t already know. So you can imagine my surprise at literally bumping into a complete stranger as my cousin Jenny and I walked past the new variety store, on our way to the mercantile. When he said excuse me, ma’am and I turned to look at him, I was rendered speechless, whereas moments…

being the happy family everyone would imagine us to be. Mom and dad were well paid and known around town for being the kind hearted Argo’s with the perfect life. No one would have had a second thought about anyone wanting us dead for any sort of reason. I was 5 when all hell had broken loose in my house and my life had been shattered into a billion pieces. Although I have to say I’ve been holding up pretty well for the past 11 years. Anyway, my dad had a best friend who he had grown up with. He…

world? Should I leave you wondering? Well I think it might come in handy so I am going to tell you the title? ¨The Black Death¨ is a book that talks about how the black death got started, who started the plague, when it started spreading, and why the plague started. So stayed tuned to hear a brief history lesson about a plague like no ordinary and how it almost died off cities and the human population decreased dramatically. Diane Zahler is the author of ¨The Black Death¨ and studies about…

darker complexion than other white people. His name has an effect on others "there was something in the sound of it that was trying to tell them what to expect...he carried with him his own inescapable warning" (33). "He still had nothing to say to anyone, even after six months. No one knew what he did between mill hours"(35). Selling whiskey secretly. Quit his job at the mill. Likes to keep things quiet and a secret. Beats Joe Brown when he talks to much "Christmas come in quick and walked up…

The world has never stopped turning for anyone and it certainly has never stopped progressing. In fact, thanks to progression, as each century passes the world provides man new materials to use in his everyday routines (in this case, we now have smartphones, laptops, apps, etc.). It made life easier but at the same time, it made the world busier and has also brought new problems. So told in the eyes of T.S Eliot and Edward Estlin Cummings, the cost of having this progression in the world is…

There was a slashing sound in the dark. She screamed in pain. It was through her neck. No one heard her. She lived alone and in the middle of nowhere, so there weren’t people for miles. A week before, everything was going pretty normal for Jade… Jade was the captain of the cheer squad, and she was also the fastest runner in track. She was attending Iron Field High School as a Junior. Her appearance was appealing to most…

for company so much that some accuse her of being some pretty vulgar things, and Candy, who was willing to give up everything just to be apart of the main characters Lennie and George’s dream. The novella takes place during the rough times where segregation was still an issue, gradually turning Crooks into quite the aloof and defensive man. Lennie had been left alone in the bunkhouse when George had left with the other workers to go into town. As he let his child like curiousity get the better…
