Monster truck

Since I was very young I have been really enthusiastic about cars, how they work and everything about them, when I was young I also had a mat with streets and roundabouts and houses, which I played with taking my cars around the streets. Just a few years ago I started to work in my dad’s garage, this meant giving up my school holidays. I didn’t mind doing this as it is something I have always wanted to do. The first morning I was going to work I got picked up and I was up really early because of…

The world is a vast and scary place, filled with people and experiences that terrify us. But sometimes, the most frightening thing to a human is themselves. Alfred Hitchcock masterfully explores this in Psycho, the magnum opus of his career. By delving into the human psyche during such a volatile time in history, Hitchcock manipulates the audience into reflecting on the morally grey truths lurking within them. In doing so, he proves that unsettling the masses may be the only way to educate them.…

The “monster” is depicted as character that does not conform to the generalized categories of a certain species. A monster blurs the boundary lines and tries to take total control. While reading Octavia Butler’s Dawn, I can make the connection from the Oankali to be considered as monstrous beings. Lilith was found barely clinging to life after the destruction of nuclear bomb divested humanity on earth. Following the devastation earth was found unsustainable for human life. The humans were then…

Large, Ugly, and Frightening are not only words to illustrate a monster or a villain, but how they portray their actions makes them who they are. Every monster or villain has a choice to choose good or evil. Usually when monsters choose evil or go down the path of destruction, they end up dead or on the losing side. Everyone faces a monster physically or emotionally. A character can have an inner-beast of not having credence in them or facing head on as a task that gets them to victory. In…

20 minutes of waiting the power finally came back on. Once we were done with the dentist and walked back out to the truck, that’s when everything began to go downhill. We knew that my dad’s truck was having problems because of how old it was, but we did not expect this to happen. My dad, Justin, and I got into the truck as usual and expected nothing to be wrong. “Why won’t the truck turn on?” My dad asks with a confused look on his face. He continues to turn the key back and forth in the…

marketing. My personal goals are to utilize my degree and start my own tow company called A&B towing. A &B will be for Ashley Brooks. My tow company will be started in Jacksonville, Florida and operated by myself and five other workers. I would need a truck driver and one for backup in case one calls out. I will need a phone representative do call the order in and to help direct driver to the customer. I will need someone to make sure payments are process and correctly input into the business…

includes the trucks, golf carts, radios and pipes used to log tours in the buildings. We have a checklist for the truck and golf carts looking for damage, checking fuel/propane, and making sure everything is in working order. Teamleaders are responsible for making sure that all the office equipment, (radios, pipes, and keys) are turned in from the previous shift. Once the initial tasks are completed they will log their actions in their activity reports. Whether in the cart or in the truck each…

It was a warm quiet night and I was just getting ready to leave my job so that I could go and purchase the thing that I had been wanting for many years. I was really excited while I was walking home although it was dark and the street was very dull. As I got home from my creepy walk, I waited for my friend Sam to come over my house. I had been saving my money for a long period and it was time to buy my first car.…

revelation that I indeed had no inclination about what people could come up with to be designated the term a good time, considering I had never heard of the hellacious event, Mud Fest. My fiancé has always been interested in big, lifted, and modified trucks, and I have grown to accept this; at times to my amazement, I enjoy going down rough terrain and muddy, deserted trails. So, when the day came that he asked me if I would like to go to an off roading event that was being held not too far…

test at the tender age of 13-year-old, but the most important was; all about the responsibilities of driving and owing a car. I first learned to drive a four speed on the tree (column), it was my dad’s 1966 Chevy Army Green truck, I also learned how to work on this truck with him at a very young age. He taught me the importance of taking care of your vehicles so that they not only last but that they are always reliable. He told me that once I thought that I could handle the responsibilities…
