Hurrying

My assistance with the teachers at Live Oak has been the same. I helped the students that needed the most help in the class. Since Live Oak is an alternative school some of the students have already finished attaining their credits and are just waiting for graduation. This leaves only a handful of students in each class. I helped the most in Ms. G’s class with a student finishing up with his government class. The student was working on a test and I read the questions and answers aloud for them.…

Although released from the hospital a week ago, Freddie has not eaten for two days and needs to find a place for continued existence. Depressed and hungry, he searches for a rare telephone booth, that he hopes will be in working order. After a search that has taken him the majority of the day, he spies one on the corner of a Seven Eleven. Walking to the booth Freddie drops in his very last seventy-five cents and dials the digits beginning on the advertisement he had circled in the paper…

Love has always been a controversial topic between men and women. Analyzing Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s poem, “My Letters! All Dead Paper” and Andrew Marvell’s, “To His Coy Mistress,” men and women vary in some expectations about love. Marvell’s character focuses on convincing the mistress to make love with him; Browning’s character is reviewing the letters from her lover and having reactions on the paper’s words. It is also important to pay close attention to the words used in Marvell’s poem…

glow of the darkening sky, swore she had seen a faint light pass between the thick boards nailed across its windows and slip through the gap beneath its crooked door. Jana had lost her nerve then and darted back to school in the purple twilight, hurrying so as not to miss lights out—or so she told herself. And most of all she knew it wasn’t locked because she and the…

Owning up to the truth is a difficult task that most people struggle to do. It is often easier for humans to hide their wrongdoings from their peers, rather than being truthful. In Nathaniel Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter, both main characters, Dimmesdale and Hester commit an act that is regarded by their peers, the Puritans, as a sin. The Puritans were a Protestant religious group that sailed to the Massachusetts Bay Colony in order to practice their religion in peace. They had strict moral and…

Hence, we can read The purloined letter as William Wilson’s Paris intervention in order to prevent the narrator from doing another immoral action. Because in William Wilson we only have access to the narrator’s point of view, we don’t know who is copying who, and thus, read like that, Dupin might be a similar image to William Wilson’s double, that intervened in Paris, while D. is blackmailing the queen. In William Wilson the concepts of self and the other are relative because it depends from…

middle of the story when Dimmesdale asks Hester and Pearl to stand on the scaffold with him in the night, he felt something, “...there come what seemed a tumultuous rush of new life, other life than his own, pouring like a torrent into his heart and hurrying through all his veins, as if the mother and child were communicating their vital warmth to his half-torpid system. The three formed an electric chain” (143), Hawthorne states. What Dimmesdale felt was the feeling of family, this made him…

has nothing to do every day. His tedium only intensifies that he does not have anything significant in his life and is continued in the story as he states, “In my cave, the tedium is worse, of course. My mother no longer shows any sign of sanity, hurrying back and forth, wall to wall, sometimes on two legs, sometimes on four.” (145). The only thing that Grendel can interact with, in the cave, is his mother and she is slowly going into insanity. This lack of interaction Grendel faces makes it…

Today’s observation took place on the most beautiful golf resort of Naples, Tiburon Golf Club at the Ritz Carlton Golf Resort where my subject currently works. The golf resort is made up of two lengthy courses one called the black course which is the hardest and the other the gold course which is the easier of the two. Today my subject Jason is playing the black course which has a rating of 69.7 and a slope of 133 this only explains the difficulty within the course. Each course has eighteen…

“Son, I think it's about time you get into the family business,” my dad said, “We both know that I'm getting older and I need someone to prolong the reign of the “Roman Empire.” “Dad, you know I don't agree with what our family does,” I said defiantly. “We'll talk about this later, but for right now let us celebrate the 16th birthday of my dear son, Alberto,” dad said. My dad, Carmine “The Roman” Falcone, was the leader of the Roman crime family. There is only one way to describe my father,…
