I am reading the book To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. The first chapter is about a group of kids that are trying to make a virtually unseen man named Boo Radley, come of his house.

The biggest part of my life would start in South Beloit illinois, tho up to this point I think I moved about three or four times. There were many reasons why I moved weather it was for more money or just a better place to live. Moving was never fun, but I was very young, so it never really affected me…

was wrong with Europe in the 1500’s? Why did most new governments fall within a couple of years? What if there was a way and a plan to fix the problems in these governments?

Even though More and Machiavelli wanted to achieve the same goal, have a stable government, they both had very different beliefs on how to do so. Lets begin…

Where Do I Live? 1 Scooter’s black, silky hair brushed the floor as he scrambled past his bed and up to the door of the house. “Yap! Yap! Ms. Lilly’s home! Ms. Lilly’s home!” 2 “Hi, Scooter. What adventures did my little Yorkie have today?” Yorkie was the name Ms. Lilly used when she thought about Scooter’s curiosity about inside things and outside things and things that move and smell. 3 “I chased a ladybug in the window. I chewed on my leash, and l looked for you.” Ms. Lilly cuddled Scooter…

First Plane Trip The first time I went on an airplane, was when I was twelve. My family was traveling to California for the first time, to visit the family on my father’s side. I remember being nervous, but, extremely excited at the same time. It was a long trip, about six hours give or take, and my family was not prepared one bit. Yet with all the chaotic things that happened, it was still a memorable and fun experience. Of course for the first time on a plane, you’re going to think the…

Oftentimes, abstaining ourselves from lying to others, from abusively speaking to others, and using divisive speech can be difficult. Sometimes when a person is placed in a difficult situation they might react to the situation without thinking about what might come out of their mouth. I decided to do my observations for this paper on a Thursday. The time that I decided for this paper was from 5 P.M until 8 P.M. I choose this time frame because this is the time where I interact with more than one…

This decision was regarding furthering my education after graduating from pre-university program. It’s usually rare among the Bangladeshi families to let their children decide for themselves about studying abroad. I consider myself lucky because, if it wasn’t for my beloved parents who have agreed with my decision and…
