“The Road Not Taken” by Robert Frost, recognizes the theme of making choices. In the poem, the speaker comes across a fork in the road when walking in the woods on an autumn day. Presented before him are two alternatives, with one option reasonably obvious and the other more subtle. He anticipates that one path has been traveled on more often than the other; however both paths are equally untraveled. While the speaker desires to follow both routes, he can only choose one, thus he arbitrarily…
Unstable, red, bumpy brick roads causing student bikers and drivers daily mayhem as they can feel every pot hole and dip in the street. Not to mention the horrendous condition of the sidewalks as well. The students of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln already have enough stress put on them to excel in classes, they should be given beautiful, safe, pot hole free sidewalks and streets to enjoy. One would think with the amount of tuition the students pay here, the university could at least…
more recent and relevant examples of engineering impacting a society is the construction of the Nelsonville Bypass project. U.S. Route 33 ran through this small town, of approximately 5,400 people, and this section typically averaged about 19,000 vehicles per day with 15 percent being semi trucks. This section of highway was narrow in width, and would typically add about twenty to thirty minutes of travel time to the average commuter. It was proposed to build a bypass around Nelsonville, which…
not be able to accomplish what is expected of them. The most common Campbell stage in real life has to be the road of trials. Everyone goes through the road of trial. How can I prove it? Your personality changes through time. I believe the road of trials doesn 't end until we are unable to accomplish something or until we have accomplished everything we wanted to accomplish, but the road of trials that makes the biggest change in our lives is going through…
The poem ‘The Road Not Taken’ written by Robert Frost describes a persona’s choice of journey. The persona is described as walking through a wood one morning, reaching a fork and contemplates which path to take out of the two diverged roads. The persona chooses the road “less travelled” and sets off on a holistic, life-changing journey. The poem is an extended metaphor about life. The character in the poem literally journeys through the “yellow woods” down one of the “two roads” but this journey…
It was the day that we had our trip to the lake planed. All of us got off work and we grouped up at my house. We all decided that we would take my car just for the experience, it is a very fast car that turns heads everywhere. The car is all blacked out with crazy rainbow headlights and ridiculously loud exhaust, not to forget it is a 10 second track car. So with that settled we threw everything in the trunk and we headed off, we drove the entire way there with the windows down so we could feel…
A giant rockslide had blocked half of the mountain road. People were trying to clear it enough to let cars through but it was taking a very long time. This was the first sign that the trip was not going to go very smoothly. The second sign showed itself a little later. We had gotten out of the traffic and were continuing up the mountain. As we were going around a curve, my mom and I noticed multiple blue hearts painted on the road. Confused, my mother asked my abuelo what they were. He told…

We all fall apart Thesis statement: In the story Walk Two Moons by Sharon Creech, there are three main themes that the plot, subplot, conflict, and characters show. Introduction A unknown person once said, “ One of the hardest lessons in life is letting go. Whether it’s guilt, anger, love, loss, or betrayal. Change is never easy. We fight to hold on and we fight to let go.” This is incredibly shown in multiple occasions throughout the book Walk Two Moons. The characters go through loss, love,…
In Robert Frost's Poem "Stopping By Woods on A Snowy Evening" the speaker chooses to surround himself with the dangers of nature away from the comforts of society; whereas Tennyson's "The Lady of Shalott" is in a tower locked away from the beauties of society because of her own fears. As the speaker in Frost's poem secludes himself from society he notices the dangers around him and what they could potentially cause. In Robert Frost's poem "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" he describes a man…
