    Matt and El Patron are two characters that prove the importance of the theme of power corrupts. Matt is the first example of how power corrupts. Matt has been given power at El Patron’s birthday party because he is his clone, and El Patron wants Matt to have the childhood he never experienced himself. When Matt was in “prison”, he was bullied by Tom and has held a grudge against him ever since. Matt has used his newfound power to move Tom to the “baby table”. “It’s my party, and I get to say who sits where.” (103). Since Matt is El Patron’s clone, he feels a sense of entitlement. He uses this against others, punishing those who have crossed him, similar to El Patron. Once again at the party, while Matt is opening his presents, Maria is trying to take Matt’s present for what he did to Tom. “I demand a birthday kiss… It’s my party too, and I can have anything I want.” (109). Along with his sense of entitlement, Matt also feels that his actions do not have…

THE PRESENT: Today is Clara’s 14th birthday, and it’s one she would never forget, one no one would. She decided to spend it with her two best friends, Emily and Addison. These three…

    1. Would you agree that Beckett’s Waiting for Godot perfectly encapsulates all the uncertainties of modernity? Samuel Beckett’s Waiting for Godot belongs to the Theatre of the Absurd. The absence of a meaningful plot, of objective dialogues and of absolute certainty is the state of absurdity. Beckett utilizes absurdity to play around with the concept of existential nullity which saw man trapped in a hostile world. Human life is meaningless and this created a sense of alienation, despair and…

I was at my “Survivor” themed birthday party, and I was nervous at the thought that I could be the first one eliminated from my team at my own birthday party. I had experienced a similar feeling of trepidation four months earlier when I attempted to eat a three-pound burger and a pound of fries in an hour at Fuddruckers in Jackson. I had only five minutes left to complete the challenge, but my stomach was on verge of exploding.…

    A few years ago, I discovered something about me that changed the way I think about life. As a basketball player, it is required to be physically fit to play. During one practice, I suddenly started to feel weak after doing laps around the court with my team. After the third lap, my coach noticed that my pace started to decrease. He called me over to make sure I was okay. Before I could even speak, I started to feel my heart stop for a quick second, and then another second, and then another for…
