I do not judge what is right or wrong with things such as culture, religion, others actions, but what I try to focus on is myself on how to be a better person. I feel everyone strives to be happy, so I strive to be a good person and treat everyone in a nice, fair manner, even if they do not treat me the same in return. I feel if I continually practice ethical…

When we hear about Legally Blonde we always think of the 2001 hit comedy starring Reese Witherspoon as the bubbly blonde lawyer, which was always dressed in pink, and seemed to fulfill the dumb blonde stereotype. Though this is just scratching the surface of Legally Blonde, as we look deeper into the story it is actually a feminist story, one of confidence, friendship, and defending what you believe in. Elle Woods is a sorority girl that seems to have it all, and she wants nothing more than to…

you probably won't believe this cruel, unusual story, but it happened. I know. 2-year-old Misty Burdick was a weird and uninhabited child. She had black hair, brown eyes and a devious smile. Unlike her sister Annabelle, her twin, she had short blond hair and watery blue eyes, with a smile that felt like it could melt you heart. Misty loved music. If she was throwing a tantrum, music would stop her strait in her tracks. Even before she was born, whenever a song came on the radio, she would…

This is seen in a way with the use of sweatpants. When the Mother first comes to the hospital she identifies herself as distinctly different than the parents in the Peed Onk ward and she does not think she could be like the Mothers “with their blond hair and sweatpants and sneakers and determined pleasantness” (225). However, later on we find that the Mother and the Husband have adopted the sweatpants ‘uniform’, which are ideal for “leaping up to check on the baby” (231). The Mother also gets…

Since I was young, the differences between my brother and I flared out in obvious ways. The root of our fights had a lot to do with the fact that we did not think, act, or look the same. As I got older, our similarities and differences surfaced and became more noticeable. Looking back, there was a few that definitely stood out in comparison to the rest. One of our similarities is our choice of hobbies. Ever since I can remember, our life has been entertained by hunting, fishing, and…

I carried more souls than I care to think about that day in Molching. But there was one particular soul I would not carry away. *** A Small Note*** It was not a soul. Liesel woke in a pool of black.

I was the only one who heard her. For minutes, the book thief worked at the fragments…
