It was a warm sunny day when my doorbell rang. “DJ it is one of your friends. Can you answer it please?” said my mom. I opened the door and there stood Rowdi and Sam, my neighborhood friends. “You want to come hit golf balls at my house?” asked Sam. “Sure” I replied with enthusiasm. “Just let me get my shoes on” I explained to Sam. As we walked down the street towards Sam’s house, the day felt pretty normal. “I can’t find the clubs or the balls. I will have to go ask my dad.” Sam said…

to get his hat, the camera is at a mid-shot, showing his waist down and stays at that height as he walks. It then angles up, which catches homers sadness, as he stares into the mirror. The camera also strategically captures the signed photo from Dr Von Braun, reminding the audience of…

Gregor alienated himself from the world once he turned into an insect. The author…

Conflict is the foundation of fiction text, it is what the story revolves around and where the lessons learned at the end of the story stem from.

Throughout the texts Billy Budd, “A Country Doctor”, and Of Mice and Men the respective authors use the elements of fiction to…

Gregor Samsa's life changed drastically when he wakes up one morning no longer a human being. Instead, he is a life size bug. Gregor's family begin to neglect him once they realize he isn't who he used to be. Kafka ties his person life into The Metamorphosis by telling about the physical, emotional, and mental abuse he went through. Gregor…
