Closet

Bradbury’s Short Story Opinion The original short story “All Summer in a Day” was engaging. I felt part of the story because Ray Bradbury put me at that perspective. He also changed my mind about science fiction which I haven’t normally enjoyed. I felt as if I was trapped on the endlessly wet plant of Venus for years, until the sun rose again. The movie adaptation didn’t allow me the same vision of being on the planet. My favorite parts of the story were Margot, the students, and the ending…

Sabrina often says she led a double life she was out of the closet with her friends and her girlfriend. When she’d be in “montreal's gay…

with great stress and let go of Skye grabbing my clothing while bending over to do so. I could feel the strange stare as I looked back seeing them both stare at my ass. I stood up crossing my arms still holding onto the blanket and walked into the closet. They two boys started to talk about how I was here and what had happened to the white kitten that was there. I stood still as my body shook with fear hoping they wouldn't find out what happened, but...clearly they knew I had turned into the…

There are three types of irony: Situational irony, verbal irony and dramatic Irony. Situational irony is when there is a situation where the readers think they know what happens, but something much different than they expected happens. An example of this would be: “I was in front of them all! I was winning-first place was in only a few yards. I hit the ribbon-then bounced back a few feet. What happened? All of a sudden, my rival burst through the ribbon and was crowned winner of the race. I hate…

I have a weird infatuation for sneakers I have at least 50 in my house just for me to wear. My closet is overwhelmed by shoe boxes. There is a shelf in my closet that has five shoe boxes across and five boxes stacked high. I spend hours a day just looking at shoes even if I have no intention to buy them I just love to look at them. My biggest struggles in English come from my lack of skill in writing. That lack of skill comes from my lacking in understanding my grammatical mistakes rushing the…

1513 Sunset Circle is an address that I will be remembering for a while. It is not that I want to remember it, but trying to forget something that played a role in breaking your heart is a hard thing to do. But, today I get to take a part of what makes him so happy; and by him I mean my rotten, good-for-nothing, lying ex boyfriend. What I am about to do should not something I or anyone else braggs about. In fact, I am pretty ashamed that I considered it in the first place. However, once it…

Personal Narrative: My Coming Out Story I came out of the closet twice actually. The first time was in the eighth grade when I came out as a lesbian to the whole community (If they cared to ask anyway). The second time I chose to come out of the closet was at the end of my sophomore year of high school, only this time I was coming out as transgender. Choosing to come out the closet for a second time wasn’t any easier than the first time, if anything it was even harder. My second coming out is…

for all the outfits I wore this week). This observation reigns true with Sophie Woodward’s take on what the woman’s closet represents in Why Women Wear What They Wear where she states that “The wardrobe reflects and is clearly part of her general sense of order in life; yet, more than this, ordering her clothes helps her get it right when she selects outfits.” Indeed, having my closet put in order the way that it is helps me get past the struggle of taking 30-45 minutes to get dressed which was…

In today’s world there is more and more individuals that are opening out about their sexuality particularly “coming out of the closet”. With that being said there seems to be more bullying towards these individuals and more headlines in the media about gays and lesbians. I found the article, “Real Men and Pink Suits” an interesting take on the jokes people make towards homosexuals. It may have been easy to say a joke or laugh about the gays and lesbians way back when, but in today’s world this…

What is Conflict? According to Shearouse (2011), conflict can be defined as “when what you want, need, or expect interferes with what I want, need or expect”. In addition, conflict is when people’s differences negatively affect the productivity, quality, service, or working relationship.
