Riding his biked down the dirt road, Justin stopped on the grass near Ernest’s house. Walking over he peeked through a small crack in the fence and watched as Ernest dug in the backyard. I should stop and help him, wonder what is going to bury. Justin wondered. Recalling the trouble he would be in with his parents if he went near Ernest again. “What is he going to bury?” Justin asked as he watched the Ernest through the crack in the fence where a board was missing. “Hey you, what…
EV-516 woke up right on time, the way she always did, at least, the way she always did since the operation. Her eye scanners flickered bright colors back and forth, sending information to her eyes and into her brain. She stood, dressed, and walked out of the boarding house rhythmically, in the same pattern she did everything. Every move that EV made was to the beat of the ticking sound that transmitted to every aspect of her being. It was constant, not even ceasing when she slept. The…
Anthel 's POV I was sitting in my study looking though proposals for the new charity that I was about to start, when Hithreal came in. "Milady, the king would like a word with you." she said. "Yes, of course." I said getting up. "Hithreal please put these papers in the files and lock the door on your way out." "Yes Milady." I gracefully, yet quickly made my way to the throne room. There a guard greeted me. "Milady, the King is not here." he said. "Where is he?" "He is in his study…
“You think I 'm a pig, don 't you kid?” The cop had been driving aimlessly for what felt like hours. During that time, he hadn 't spoken a single word. Instead, he turned on his radio and turned the volume up on a rock radio station. The day light outside the windows shifted radically as we drove. Sometimes, it disappeared entirely for minutes on end behind skyscrapers. Other times, it fell right in my face and into my eyes. It felt good. An itch went up and down my back, but by twisting…
almost smell Julian Casablancas’ alcohol-soaked breath through his delivery in the original. With a bouncy rhythm section borrowed from Tom Petty’s American Girl, the track helped its parent album Is This It to become one of the most celebrated rock débuts of all time. 63. Estelle feat. Kanye West - American…
West Coast crooner Anderson .Paak has already made plenty of music, with three albums under his belt (2014′s Venice, along with two records as Breezy Lovejoy back in 2012) - however, Malibu feels like a debut album. And, in a way, it is, because this record is .Paak’s introduction to a whole new audience. Since the release of Venice, which had one feature and production predominantly from Callum Connor’s LO_DEF project, .Paak has appeared on numerous West Coast hip hop records, including Dr.…
today. Like most of Arctic Monkeys’ début Whatever People Say I Am, That’s What I’m Not, closer A Certain Romance brings universal ideas about your lively neighborhood and staple them to a perfectly crafted rock number. 85. Interpol - Obstacle 1 With interlocking guitars reminiscent of Marquee Moon, Interpol teared its way out of post-9/11 New York into the rock stardom world with Obstacle 1.

Justin Bieber’s life has been like a rollercoaster. There have been times where he was at the highest of the high and not having a care in the world because his life was full of good things and great people. There have also been times where he was at the lowest of the low and been arrested for doing stupid things that he regrets. He came from a broken home which is relatable to my life because his dad left his mum when he was only a small child and my dad left when I was 3 months old. …
Growing up I was always taught that hard work, preservation, motivation and drive would excel and get me far in life. Outliers almost paints a different picture. Outliers states how luck might have to do with one 's success, such as succeeding and becoming a high ranking sports player. Outliers also mentions how Asians are better at math, because they practice more and if we all contributed at least 10,000 hours into a hobby we enjoy, we could be the best. All these possible reasons as to why,…
