Bergstein is an American writer who wrote and co-produced the popular film Dirty Dancing back in the 80’s. She wrote the story based partly off her own childhood.

Shakespeare, like Milne, wrote stories and could pick what he wanted from the truth. What Shakespeare portrayed him as isn't necessarily true but may be based on the truth. He may have exaggerated the truth into the play, as he had done that with previous works. This could be proved by reading the text carefully, it says he made him seem a ‘weak’ man. If he was weak, he wouldn't have been unfair to people (according to other sources). This means that parts of Shakespeare's play is definitely…

It was then I felt my true power surge through me. I should back up a little in time and tell you how I got to this point. It all started right before I woke up. I met someone who changed my life. The darkness felt dreadful like a thousand deaths. Almost the same as a never ending cave. I couldn’t move or talk. I felt suffocated. My breathing was heavy and I could feel tears forming. Suddenly there was a dim light as it got closer, it got brighter until it was close enough to realize it was a…

The theme in the poem “Eleanor Rigby” is how lonely people can be in a world full of people. The author is portraying how sad Eleanor is, and how the father of the church, Father McKenzie, might seem like the type that would not get lonely, feels the same way as Eleanor.

At school, someone may stand out because they sit alone at lunch and don't talk to anyone. Feeling alone can be hard, so having a friend to help them through it is helpful. Although there are benefits to being alone, having a strong companionship with someone is beneficial for a person because having someone to lean on would prevent the feeling of…

I woke up to the irritating ring of my alarm, the smell of French toast lingering through the air, and the feeling of a spider crawling up my arm. It started out like any other day, but little did I know that this day was going to be a day to remember. I woke up early that day so that I could get revenge on my sisters and make them feel an icy cold shower while I felt the heat of a hot shower. The shower, however, was freezing because my sisters had the same idea as me. The shower that day was…

‘Sometimes I think I 'm crazy because I 'm different from everyone else.’ with this quote constantly running through my mind, I personally understood what Madrid meant when he said that the Other”results in us feeling excluded, or even disdained and scorned.” As a child I always felt as if I played the role of the other. I was different in ways such as loving to learn, and being an overly outgoing person with different points of view, and as a result; I found that other children…
