The film “If…” by Lindsay Anderson is an allegory of the risks of repressing sexual desires with extreme repercussions for doing so, with imagery starting from the opening sequence with a young student caressing a peach while another watches intently, and ending with the extreme act of violence that Mick Travis uses instead of sating his sexual desires. The entirety of the film places the students and subjects of the film within the seeming prison like system of their boarding school, which…

townhouses were more luxurious than the farmhouses. My grandfather, spoken like a true optimist, had said “for every thing you didn’t have, you always had something good.” Growing up, Jerry worked on his family farms. Around age 15/16, he set bowling pins at the local bowling alley. At 16, even though he was underage, he worked the summer at the sawmill. HIs father was a logger and, “as her duty,” his mother worked at home. Since they lived off of their own farm and used what they had at home,…

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation, or CPR, is an emergency procedure taken to restore spontaneous blood circulation and breathing for someone who is in cardiac arrest (“Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation”). Cardiac arrest is the sudden loss of blood flow from the heart’s spontaneous shut down (“Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation”). Some people think of the fake dummies used in CPR classes or learning about it at swim lessons. Some people think of Bee Gee’s song “Stayin’ Alive”, but there’s a lot more to…

The Ink Drinker Continued... I rushed back to the bookstore feeling excited about my new hunger for books. I went straight to my hiding place, sat down, and began to wonder about what to do next. “Should I tell someone?” I thought to myself. I decided to just wait until the next morning and go back to the graveyard to see if I could find Draculink and ask him about my newly developed book issue. Besides, it was getting really cold and dark outside anyways. All I could think about was…

“You can get off now Callie” I slid off and Caramel jumped a little bit. Caramel Is a big scaredy cat, She hates new things and things she has seen at the barn one hundred times before. I walked caramel back to her stall to un-tack her. She goes straight to her food bowl like always. I took off her bridal and I heard the clinking of metal on her teeth as I took the bit out of her mouth. It felt slimy but I did not hold on to it for long. I slid her halter on to her head and walked her to the…

“You may take the field for competition.” Marching band has always been something I wanted to do since I entered North Middle School band. When I first signed up to be in the ‘Rebel Pride’ marching Band at Franklin County High School, I had no idea what that year would have in store for me. ‘Will I fit in?’ ‘Will anyone like me?’ Those were all questions I asked myself. I can honestly say that the four years I was in marching band was the time of great learning and discovery of myself and the…

During the 1980’s, Stephen King wrote The Eyes of the Dragon for his little girl because she wasn’t exactly a fan of the books he normally wrote. A majority of his fans rejected the book because it wasn 't up to par with the present horror in his previous writing. In the book, Misery, Paul Sheldon feels the same way.
