Sit Down

Let’s Go to the Movies! Movies are a mainstay at the Cox family household. Our family rarely sits down to watch movies, but we quote movies we have seen over and over until we watch the next movie. Some movies that have been at our house we quote for years and use witty lines whenever needed wherever a sarcastic comment may be appropriate to use in our conversations. As a young,boy my parents pushed and strived to make sure that I watched age appropriate movies that were well made. I…

A few MOURNERS dressed in black and ELDERLY NUNS sit in the front pews. Tense inaudible whispers fill the chapel. The whispering becomes louder and argumentative. An ELDERLY NUN, 86, takes notice of the whispering and slowly turns around to the back of the church. DALE EDWARDS, 35, ruggedly handsome and disheveled stops whispering at the sight of the nun. He sits up straight. Sitting next to Dale is MADELINE CARR, 45, she stops whispering and sits up. The nun turns back around, Dale and…

school. The clock on the wall said that it was already eight in the morning. Running quickly down the stairs, I grabbed my stuff and was out the door. I was going to be late. My friend, Lisa waited for me at the end of the street. “ROSE!” She yelled. I quickly ran over to her. We walked to school together. “Ahh-” she sighed. “Today’s the day. February 4th, in the year 1960. The day where we are going to sit at the lunch…

Some cool Nigerian parents sit their children down and talk some sense into them: telling them to always do the right thing at the right time. For me, I knew I deserved the beating my father gave me when I was in Nigeria before I came here. I kept on doing what I knew my parents didn’t like. My parents always warn me not to stay out late but I always disobey them. So one day that I came home late, my mother sat me down and advised me never to do that again. The second time…

the one to ride rides let alone big roller coasters. I usually am the bag holder while I sit and wait when they jump from one ride to the next. Usually I stand off to the side or find an empty bench, pop out my phone and keep to myself. But I thought this time it would be the perfect opportunity to break the norm and allow me to complete this assignment. So instead keeping to myself I decided to find places to sit or stand where others were around. When I did this I made sure the people I sat by…

On 7/18/17 I met Mr. Stolicker at the office of Dr. Taha. Mr. Stolicker arrived with his wife. He was bearing full weight to the right foot; he was wearing a sandal and using one crutch. The right leg was swollen. Once we were checked in, he was asked when he had started weight bearing because he was supp0osed to be non weight bearing. He reported that the scooter was making his knee and back sore so he stopped using it last week. He has been driving also. He said he tried the ortho boot but it…

It was a cold and stormy night within the caverns of Snowdin. Rain from the stalagmites had been collected and poured onto Snowdin as well as onto a young girl. The girl was a newcomer from New Home and had decided to move to Snowdin due to the overcrowding happening there. She shivered as she walked towards a bunny rabbit-type monster. She approached the monster shyly, "E-ehm... e-excuse me, c-can you tell me where one can get out of the rain and s-some place warm...?" she said. "Huh...?…

Sunday morning, we went to the catholic church of the Newman Center located at 472 North Pleasant Street which is about one hundred meters away from our dormitory. After breakfast, we walked for about five minutes, and saw the entrance of the building. There is a sculpture on the top of the entrance of the building. Many people came from different direction keep entered. Most of the people are old people, and there are also some students, families with children here. When we came in, a father in…

I chose to do my observation during one of my shifts at work in a child care center. More specifically, it was in a transition classroom for children of ages two to three. The indoor classroom was brightly lit with furniture such as tables, a carpet play area, couches, and different toys meant for different sections of the room. The atmosphere was comfortable and not quiet or loud with children participating in activities at a neutral volume. It was play time right before lunch time and the…
