All my life, I’ve always wondered, why? Why do I stammer? Is it something wrong with me? I know that I was born that way because unlike many people, stammering didn’t only occur when I was stressed or in an unconformable situation. I stuttered every time I tried to speak. No matter how hard I tried to control my speech flow, I couldn’t help it. It was natural. My relatives tried to help me, to cure me fof my speech disorder but they failed. They didn’t have patience with me. They believed that…
The green boy fell beside the pale girl, panting with a smile on his face. “How was that, Rae?” He asked. They had just finished having sex in the missionary position for the millionth when the girl turned to him smiling. “It was great Beastboy, but don’t you think it’s time to try something new?” Panting as hard as he was, she smiled looking into his big green eyes. Both of them had matured a lot since the Teen Titans had formed. “Although I think I’m getting abs on my abs,” Beastboy chuckled…
Overview Communication is the basis for all primate social behavior. Primates communicate using a variety of modalities including olfaction, vision, and audition. While primate communication is an extensively researched topic, not all modalities have received the same amount of research. Acoustic communication has been the most often studied, followed by visual and then olfactory (Semple & Higham, 2013). Typically primates are considered visual animals and several species have the ability to…
-Life The earth’s moist dirt tickled beneath your fingertips, coiling your hands further with tiny pebbles and mud; but the stains bothered you not for you loved feeling the gritty and grimy texture against your skin. You would lather yourself with the dusty scent if you could, replace the unnatural fragrance of fruity shampoo and fresh soap with an earthy one of moss and grass, rain, and dew. Nature always had that effect on you, urging you and calling you, maturing a desire in you to bury…
"C-7625, can you hear me?" The blackness vanished as I opened my eyes. My scanners immediately survey the warehouse I'm in and my system starts. Progress bars load and data are shown in my central CPU. Big blue and black robotic arms are moving about, adding plates and connecting wires on me. I stand on a cold, smooth, and metallic cylinder raised a few feet off the dark-gray ground while the robotic arms rotate around the cylinder. I look around the warehouse, painted dark-blue with…
Perfectionism was a simple way of life to follow for Nathan. His grades were sky-high, and made the smartest kids in the entire district jealous. He blew everyone out of the water in competitions revolving around academics, such as the spelling and geography bees. Everything including academics was an easy task for him--and it made him feel really good about himself. Only 1 kid can be the valedictorian, and he was proud to represent that. But on the flip side of that, getting anything wrong…
Nonetheless, they have the same underlying idea about the universe. According to Norse mythology, there was originally a chasm, Ginnungagap, bounded by fire and ice. Fire and ice combined to form a giant, Ymir, and a cow, named Audhumbla. By Ymir licking the cow, she revealed a man, Bur, who had three grandsons. These three brothers, one of which was Odin, killed the frost giant Ymir and created the world. It is said that “Ymir's blood was the sea; his flesh, the earth; his skull, the sky; his…
I knocked on the door and a male opened the door and yelled, “Gloria, the lady is here”. She yelled down, saying “good morning, I will be right down”. Toys, paper and empty soda bottles were on the floor. I cat was on the table licking and empty plate. There was sporadic clothing laying around on the floor and the furniture (table, chairs, and banister). Three big bags of clothes sat in a corner at the door with names on each bag. A partial view into the kitchen revealed dirty…
The trip to Chicago was blessedly uneventful, even as the amount of relics from the time before steadily increased as they got closer to the city. “You, are such a hick,” Miles whispered in her ear, grasping her elbow as she gawked, keeping her from tripping over her own two feet as they walked the streets of chicago. “Are you complaining?” she asked looking up at him with a toothy grin. “No,” Miles chuckled with a shake of his head as he looked into her mischievous eyes, “absolutely no…
point, Ralph takes action against the evil “Lord of the Flies.” “Fiercely he hit out at the filthy thing in front of him that bobbed like a toy and came back, still grinning into his face, so that he lashed and cried out in loathing. Then he was licking his bruised knuckles and looking at the bare stick, while the skull lay in two pieces, its grin now six feet across” (Golding 144). This incident symbolizes Ralph’s attempts to try to battle against the evil and savage attitudes that the “Lord of…
