    • 4 Pages

    I have always tried to live my life without regrets, so this assignment was kind of hard for me. I had to sit down and really think about what it is that I would want to tell my younger self. Then it finally hit me, one thing I would tell myself as a child is to take more opportunities that come my way. Not saying that we should take every opportunity, but to enjoy life a little more when we are given the chance to. I would explain to my younger self that we may not realize it now but we have…

    What is the meaning of “Family”? According to the English dictionary the meaning of family is the father mother and the child. This is the basic definition of “Family’’. In general people see the word family as to the people we are somehow related to by birth. Family for me is more than that is more about those people who open the life door and let us in, like friends and in-law relatives. The meaning can differ different meaningful things and it all depends on when and how we use it. In the…

    Dear Luke, Calum, Michael, and Ashton (AKA 5 seconds of summer), This letter is something I wish I could say to you. But knowing myself, I know I probably won’t ever get the chance. It 's going to end up being a pretty long letter, so bear with me. Before I found out about you guys, I had never cared that much about music. I understood the effort it took to produce it, but I rarely listened to it. The times I did listen to it was usually when I was in the car, or there was nothing better to do.…

    When something pivotal happens to someone, their attitude and way of thinking change devastatingly. Although these boys may only be 6-12, they go through the same things that anyone would undergo. This loss of innocence causes people to act in ways contrary to their typical self. In Lord of the Flies, William Golding uses the characterization of the boys to illustrate how people lose their innocence when going through a traumatic event. The littluns might just be elementary age boys, but they…

The conch shell is a symbol of civilization that only Piggy and Ralph hold onto and respect throughout their lives on the island. The sow’s head represents lawlessness and disorganization that everyone but Ralph respects by the end of the novel. Both objects are used by the boys as a way to control their groups, but ultimately the sow’s head wields…

    My Father Letter

    Hello Dad, I have been contemplating writing this letter for sometime now, but I haven’t been able to decided when the best time to write it would be, and now seemed like the best time considering the events that have occurred this morning. First, let me share with you that in no way shape or form did I ever intended on hurting your feelings with my comment about “giving my childhood back.” It was simply intended as a joke. I also clearly had no intentions of touching on a sensitive subject…

    I 've even seen with the staff and teachers, they want to be, staff up here and kids down here and that doesn’t work with these kids. They are already fighting against hierarchy anyway and authority. That is probably why they went to jail or whatever their situation is. Whenever you act like their friend and I genuinely care about them, I think that is a huge thing and to work with these populations. It 's not just the curriculum, you have to form that relationship or they are not going to…

    The summer of 2013 was the year I graduated. We have all been there: 18 years old , in a comfortable environment where our problems are small and plenty of opportunities. Some people have everything planned and sorted out, but most off them have no clue what to do with their life after high school. To be able to make a better decision people should therefore think twice before continuing their education without taking a break. People in Sweden usually take one or a few years off after…

    My Experience As A Writer

    Writing for me has always been more of a pain then something I enjoy. Ever since I was little I have had to do writing assignments for school. Now, I like writing but I don’t like writing. If you tell me to write a story about anything, or write what’s on my mind, I will gladly sit down and write and be happy. But if you give me an assignment that’s boring, or something I don’t like, then I’m going to have a hard time writing it and it’s probably not going to be a hundred percent. From my very…
