Automatic watch

Rolex watches have always been known to be a status symbol, with high quality craftsmanship designed for royalty. Rolex ads always have the most prestigious symbols in sports and entertainment leading ad campaigns for their watches. After standing the test of time they have refined their craft to near perfection to stay ahead of the pack and remain the name in luxury watches.

Before Thanksgiving break, we had the opportunity to watch part of The 11th Hour movie in health class. I continued to watch the film after class because it seemed very interesting to me. As I watched, I was surprised to hear that the bulk of the environmental problems in the world today are a result of individuals abusing what the world has to offer. Many of the natural disasters we face are a result of the earth fighting back to what we as humans are doing. I thought that this film was very…

Intro In my world, everyone is born with a timer already implanted on their wrists. No one knows how or why we’re born with it: all we know is that it counts down to the moment you meet your soulmate. It took ages for people to reach this conclusion and still, it has been at the peak of human curiosity for as long as I could remember. The Timer has inspired a generous amount of literature (including many famous ones) and even more conspiracy theories than the universal question of life itself.…

The use of Emily’s house as a symbol in this story helped to show the conflict within herself. It seemed as though everything that happened to the house also happened to Emily. When Emily was young and her mind was clear, the house stood as a symbol of wealth in the neighborhood. Then, as the house decayed, so did Emily. Not just in the physical sense, but mentally as well. Emily and her house also represented the secret that they shared, Homer Barron. The pocket watch was a great way to…

Gulf and if I stare long enough to my left I can imagine seeing the Gulf of Oman over miles of undulating sand dunes. A cold rush of emptiness overtakes me and I absently remove a golden pocket watch from my vest. It is a very unique watch, one that I am very fond of because it is one of the only things that was ever given to me before…before my world was lost to isolation and fear. I try not to think of the time before, not that there is much I can remember, but the watch always holds a piece…

bored enough to watch. Well, I eventually settled of mad men. I then watched the rest of the first season ("5G" to "The Wheel"), the entire second season ("For Those Who Think Young" to "Meditations in an Emergency"), and the first episode of the third season ("Out of Town"). Eventually I got distracted by other things, and couldn't be bothered to watch it for a while. That changed when I got home, and I had was very bored waiting for my friends to get back to college, due to Alabama’s long…
