Nevermind

There is an old saying, finding a needle in a haystack. Fortunately, I have never had to try to find a needle in a haystack, but I have had to find an anchor on the bottom of the lake until I went fishing with Jon Mans. It was a bright sunny day in the middle of July. Jon Mans and I were headed to the lake, where we would meet our football coach, Jimmy, to go fishing. Even though we arrived at the lake well before Jimmy, we got my 14-foot camo Alumacraft the trailer. Additionally, the boat was…

My friends and I were always put down by Josh, the bully. This was constant until one day we all decided to stand up to this bully. The middle school in…

Shakespeare's play follows Hamlet, the Prince of Denmark, through all of his woes that lead to his insanity. Hamlet is about revenge, justice, fate, and so much more. Hamlet sums up how love and deranged situations affect people's sanity. Hamlet’s insanity is illustrated by the fact that his family life is crumbling down, he has a newfound…

In the case of Little Red Riding Hood, the characters and their interactions are used to share the moral. However, the supposed moral is conflicted when the reader takes a deeper look into the seemingly simple tale. Little Red Riding Hood symbolizes innocence and being naive while…

It is a big challenge.” “Ya know there’s something that I just don’t get.” “What’s that?” “Nevermind. It don’t got nothing to do with my godson’s dying.” “It’s okay.

No one was without blame. Each side wanted a war. Each side wanted to win. I would say the North had more to do with the Civil war than the South, due to atagonistic writers and newspaper editors. Once won the South was returned to (on paper at least) it's normal position in the USA. However, the Solders and the Politicians fought for two different reasons.
