    Grendel and Modern Day Society Grendel and modern-day society may not have many things in common from an outside point of view, but when one starts to examine it they are alike in more ways than one would realize.

    Anne Bradstreet starts her poem by having endless love for her husband. She states in every line how her love is so complex to explain it in those twelve lines.

The title of the poem is exactly what the poem addresses “her dear and loving husband.” She really likes her husband and loves him because she uses “dear and loving” in the title. Love is unexplainable. The poem is opened up by…

    The product placement in Jurassic World certainly serves its purpose as it exposes the audience to the many brand names and merchandise. The particularly clever product placements leave a far more permanent and positive attitude in the audience’s mind about their brand as they are not just simply trying to capture attention in the background, but rather showing the audience the product’s use and enjoyment through the characters of the movie. One such effective product placement is when Chris…

    they’ll tell all the natural men to become men of God so that they don’t end up in the pits of hell. Bradstreet is very dramatic in her writings as she compares her love to “all the riches that the East doth hold./ My love is such that rivers cannot quench.”(lines 6-7).

    To describe a Hershey's kiss may seem easy because of its small structure, but for me it is almost impossible to describe. Simple words can only describe its beauty and its wonderful taste, but only vaguely. Despite the tiny figure the Hershey Kiss has, it is made up of 3 components that makes it recognizable to everyone, and also so amazing. The beauty of the chocolate is covered by a shiny coloured foil, and peeking from out of the foil is a paper flag that reads “KISSES” in bold light blue…

    Mega droughts, they’re a mega problem. A Mega drought is a drought that has been going on for at least two decades. NASA claims there could be a nationwide Mega drought due to carbon emissions. This could mean lack of or no water, the heat would be intense, wildfires, and many deathes. A lack of rain would mean that there wouldn’t be a lot of water for crops, which means very few crops.
