Bathtub

Lunacy: The Portrait of a Student Sylvia Plath once wrote, “The floor seemed wonderfully solid. It was comforting to know I had fallen and could fall no further.” I wish I could say my descent into madness was graceful, but yet that wasn’t the case. I had hit rock bottom. Actually I had cannonballed into it. I was a shadow of a girl then, but I wasn’t always like that. I felt on top of the world, I had graduated 20 out of 639, and I had gotten into my dream school. My collapse taught me that it…

playing Marco Polo, having trick competitions on who can get into the water the coolest, while their parents sits underneath the shade, talking and enjoying the relaxation for the time being. We set up the boat to stay float like a rubber ducky in a bathtub, and then goes the yelling of “1, 2, 3”as we jump in making crashes into what once was a quiet lake. As I swim up to the surface I hear the excitement in everyone's voice of how nice and warm the water is, almost as if it’s a blanket covered…

CHECK ON SEMI COLON/COMMA USEAGE AGAIN Permitting Active Euthanasia Many people all over the world either currently suffer or will suffer from a terminally ill disease. When dealing with these situations, is it right to only give the patient the option to stop treatment and agonize until death? Or, is it right to end their suffering earlier through lethal injection? Terminally ill patients should not be forced to suffer; therefore, active euthanasia should, at times, be permissible. To…

excuse of a bathroom just past the closet. The lighting was brilliant, but there was no space for more than one person at a time and it reeked of mildew from the black mold presumably growing under the bathroom sink. I often enjoyed lounging in the bathtub until my skin was…

big plus of this phone compared to the iPhone 5s would be the 16 megapixels camera, which would definitely take better resolution images. It’s like a camera and phone packed into one device. Anyone who’s always dropping his/her phone on the sink, bathtub, or worse on the toilet, has nothing to worry about owning this device. It is water resistant. This Phone also has a fingerprint sensor merged with the home button, which allows the user to unlock the device by using his/her fingerprint. The…

this painting holds a great deal of history. David was part of a revolutionary parliament, who supported the idea of the king’s execution. When one of his good friends, and famous revolutionary chief reporter, Jean-Paul Marat was murdered in his bathtub, the parliament ordered David to paint, portraying Marat as a martyr. The painting shows Marat in his tub, with the knife he was presumably stabbed with on the floor next to him. There is a writing table with a scroll on it next to the tub.…

The bathtub model from Dave H. Kaplan’s book helps give the reader a visual of the coastal population. There was a greater concentration of people near the coast then 1,125 miles from the coastline. Today the younger population is more attracted to living in…

you were walking into a piece of art. THE ROOM There are five rooms in the Riad, providing space for only ten guest altogether. Our room was on the first floor. It had a small sitting area next to a fire place and a huge bed. My highlight was the bathtub though, which was big enough for me to completely dive in without even touching the walls. I felt like a princess in there. In the room, there are sill Yela's quotes on the walls combined with individually designed furniture, drawing together…

I. Euthanasia is defined as “the act or practice of killing or allowing someone to die on the grounds of mercy (Timmons 749).” Euthanasia can itself be subdivided into two categories, active and passive euthanasia. Active euthanasia occurs when a caretaker takes action to bring about the death of another. An example of this type of euthanasia is a doctor injecting a patient with a lethal dose of medication, in turn ending the life of the patient. Passive euthanasia is a situation in which the…

The op-ed piece from the New York Times, “Tear Down Deadbeat Dams” by Yvon Chouinard, and the Outsiders magazine article “Blow Up” by Bruce Barcott both argue that the construction of dams has been extremely harmful to the natural world. Even though they are similar in idea and argument, the ways they communicate their message differ. I will analyze: FINISH “Blow Up” is structured very much like a story in that Barcott gives the reader a sequence of events; we dammed and we dammed and we dammed…
