died.) Those are the things I do know. There are a lot of facts I don’t about Sparta. I have three major questions. They are the following: what was the real training regiment for the boys of Sparta versus the myths and legends that are circulating in the world today, what were the roles…

Wisconsin. As she walked into Cabin 4, she dropped her phone. “Oh shoot” she said. As she went to pick it up, she saw the all too familiar green, dirty converse. “Elise!” she squealed with a grin on her face. Elise hugged her and replied “Caroline, I missed you.” Elise had been Caroline’s best friend since Kindergarten, but when she moved two hours away in 5th grade, they no longer got to see each other. However, they always went to Camp Bugnee together, and always stayed in Cabin 4. Then,…

the two hour car ride there, one friend, I’ll call her A (I don’t want to use any names), threatened to reveal a long-time secret kept between her and another of my friends who was also my boyfriend, J, which had the codename of “Muskrat.” I was very eager to figure out what exactly was going on, and had been since I first heard about Muskrat two or three months prior.

Holden struggles with seeing others losing their purity and gets angry at the sight of it. “Somebody'd written 'Fuck you' on the wall. It drove me damn near crazy. I thought how Phoebe and all the other little kids would see it, and how they'd wonder what the hell it meant, and then finally some dirty kid would tell them…and how they'd all think about it and maybe even worry about it for a couple of days” (201).…

On Tuesday, I was back in downtown Silver Spring for another lunch get together but this time with my close friends Heather, Angela and Angela’s new boyfriend, Nick. The two of them hadn’t been dating very long, and Angela wanted Heather and me to meet him and give our opinion. We decided eat at Red Lobster.
