the feeling of wanting revenge was gone. “I can’t because you saved my life multiple times, but now I have no purpose. I lived a miserable life because of you. Each and everyday I lived so that I could one day kill you,” I said. I walked towards the ocean. Luke then took out his gun. “I didn’t want to kill you either, but I hate seeing the way you are right now,” said Luke. Then, I heard a gunshot, and slowly all the colors started to fade, and it became dark. In the distance however was a…

Castaway assessment 1. To critique the film castaway I would say that they do not show enough of what he had to do to survive for the 4 years on the island they showed him catching a few fish and the showed him cracking coconuts, but they never showed him trying to catch any animals or setting any traps that he might find on an island. Also, I would have a little bit more of the time that they were having at home searching for him or at his funeral. They just showed him at the island for the…

organisms, which are important to the ecosystem but threatened by humans’ dangerous fishing practices—bycatch, explosive fishing, etc. Moreover, many other activities, such as offshore drilling, oil spill, or releasing toxic wastes into rivers and oceans, also adversely affect the health of the natural aquarium, therefore harming many marine species. Typically, one example is the case of the Irrawaddy Dolphin, whose safety is not only shaken by bycatch but also the construction of dam. When…

“When can we go back,” I said. “What are you talking about going back for we just got here,” replied my dad. “We've been out here fishing all day and we haven't even had a bite,” I said. I and my dad for the past five years have gone on a fishing trip to Hawaii. I always loved the trip, but this year it was different we were already halfway through the week-long trip and only been out fishing one day. To make things even worse we hadn't even had a bite all day. All I wanted to do was go back to…

state of Indiana and the longest road trip I’ve taken. It was a car ride that lasted over a day and I went with my friend, Olivia, and her mother, grandfather, and both of her brothers Ben and Trevor and their families. While there we went in the ocean and pools many times. We went to shopping areas and restaurants. There were also many activities at the hotel we stayed at such as artsy things and even a small arcade. Then the ride to and back to Florida was the absolute same both ways, long and…

In our studies of the sea, one theme connects its’ role in all stories we’ve read: the cyclical nature of its power. In Riders to the Sea, the sea brings sustenance and income to Maurya, as well takes away her husband and all of her sons. In The Sea at Dauphin, the sea brings Afa a livelihood but takes away everything else worth living for. The house in Home follows a similar pattern. There are celebrations of life and death, union and separation, and happiness and despair. Like nature, the idea…

More people have traveled into space than have traveled to the deep ocean realm....” -The Blue Planet Seas of Life. It is hard to believe that most of our planet is made up of vast oceans, practically right under our nose, yet so much is still unknown about it. To think that we have come across so much information, and made so many advances in regards to space, rather than…

penguins the ice free or low ice concentration area are important for them to be able to get food easily. Shaye Wolf wrote in her article that, “Our greenhouse gas emissions are also causing the oceans to become acidic, which threatens the entire ocean food web from plankton to penguins.” (8). The ocean environment is slowly becoming acidic and not suitable for certain species and that is going to cause major fallout to many species, like tiny plankton but also…
