Ever since “Tom” died, his mother, Anna LaFarge, began to lose her memories faster. Like a leak growing into a waterfall, a few fuzzy moments became much more. Every day she chanted simple tasks to herself like some magic spell in hopes she might remember it the next. The other townspeople noticed her madness when her occasional visits to town suddenly became more frequent. She ran through town daily, asking for her son although everyone knew he was dead. One month after the mysterious,…

Ever since I can remember, I’ve always loved the movie, Space Jam. The movie introduced me to Bill Murray (starring as Bill), to Danny DeVito (who played the evil theme park proprietor - Swackhammer), and of course to the the infamous Michael Jordan. I was so engorged in this sci-fi kids movie that I related almost everything to Michael Jordan and Space Jam. In school, I’d only buy Gatorade products, I’d constantly worry about what Bugs Bunny would think if I failed a test, or if switching from…
The Ewoks are much smaller compared to the avatar. The Ewoks use spears, bows, slings, and knives as weapons. They use hang gliders to navigate to places just as how the Na’vi had used the mountain banshee. They were quick learners especially when they took over the robot with the machine guns that were attacking their friends. The Ewoks also helped against technology from overtaking the world and diminishing it. The Ewoks had helped Princess Leia and…
You are fierce and unapologetic. You raise Hell and bring forth thunder when you speak with booming words of such profane ideas and insane thoughts. You’re like lightening hitting the sand and ocean during an outrageous storm, you send waves of pure shock through crowds that are silent and dull. You’re like a drug that pumps through the veins of your victims, making them want more and more of you. You pull them in with your coy and curious ways, never giving straight answers when asked. You…

I’m a 28-year-old Junior in college, an adult with a whole new set of responsibilities, those of which I’m required to abide to.…
already been modified. It was in this vehicle where we bonded throughout the rest of my teen years. The way it played out the 1998 Sierra was passed down to me once I graduated high school and through some internet bartering I managed to trade a Yamaha Banshee for another truck of the same body style. The only difference with this one was it was a 1993 and it was equipped with four…

His use of personification, metaphor, and simile paints a vivid, colorful picture of war. For example, Crane writes: “A shell screaming like a storm banshee went over the huddled heads of the reserves,” a simile that describes how loud the bullets are as they fly overhead. “ They could see a flag that tossed in the smoke angrily,’ personification that gives an inanimate object (a flag) emotion.
