I'll Stick Around

Hub decided to look after Walter and said, “I'll stick around and be your damn uncle. Don't expect me to be happy about it” (McCanlies,1). Hub realized Walter needed him in his life because Walter’s mother did not take much action to ensure that he gets what he needs. Since Walter did not have such a great parental figure to look up to, Hub decided he would care for him. Afterall, Walter’s own mother just dumped him at Hub’s place when Walter barely even knew who Hub was. Hub felt the urge to care for his great-nephew, even if it meant sacrificing a portion of retirement time to look after him. He even promised to stick around until it was time to give Walter the full version of the “What Every Boy Needs to Know About Being a Man Speech”. In the end, Hub developed affectionate feelings towards Walter as he fulfilled the gap of the fatherly figure in Walter’s…

Should one forget to give this warning at the beginning of the conversation, it may be tacked on at the end. While the latter approach is less effective in preserving other’s enjoyment of the movie, no one can get mad as long as the spoiler alert was given, however belated it may have been. Once these skills have been mastered, anyone can be a successful movie-goer. Some may even move on to become…

‘Whenever you go becomes a part of you somehow’ by Anita Desai. To see the World- is a huge dream of most of the people. Why do some people love to travel? When people travel, they cognize not only the world around them, also they cognize themselves. How many interesting and beautiful things we have in our wonderful world. Some people want to travel to a noisy megapolis with skyscrapers, and with a noisy crown of people, some of them want to relax in the virgin nature, someone dreams about the…

The stick I randomly grabbed had a slight curve to it. I thought I could make it into a bow or something later. I handed Christianne another stick, just in case she wanted one. The first quarter of the trail wasn 't that bad as long as I walked at a slow pace. By the time I made it up halfway, however, my legs were screaming at me in protest. I tripped on a few rocks because of my sluggish pace. Luckily, I caught myself with the stick I was carrying. After the long and grueling hike back up, I…

Video games have been transformed so much thought the years. Starting from pong in the 70’s to modern day video games. As society advances so do video games and their importance in modern culture.

There exactly seven quadrants the attack players are trained to shoot at: stick-side high, stick-side hip, stick-side low, off-stick high, off-stick hip, off-stick low, and five hole. Stick-side refers to your dominant hand’s side, so if you’re a right-handed person the stick-side refers to the right and the off-stick side refers…

thought that I wouldn’t go through with it. What made me decide to play lacrosse was when my mother told me that I had to at least play one sport in high school. I would not say that I was forced to play lacrosse, but I really did not have any other option. I was not going to play baseball because I went to a baseball camp during the summer before my freshman year and I was the worst one out of all of the kids in my grade. I wasn’t going to do track because I wasn’t fast. I picked lacrosse…
