Looking back at it now, I miss being under their wing or being guided by their intelligence. However, that’s life, you have to grow up eventually. In the end,…

The resentment was tough. My high school offered Chick Fil A, hot dogs, Mc Donald’s burgers or chicken nuggets, pizza and Chinese food. In the vending machines were pure junk foods. Doritos, snickers, skittles, Twix, Big Texas cinnamon roll (very popular in my school) and my personal favorite Duchess honey buns. After sitting in classes all throughout the morning, having to write notes, try to pay attention while your stomach growls, by the time…

In the poem “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock”, written by T.S. Elliot, there is one main theme that branches into subthemes throughout the poem. The theme at hand is one that most people can relate to, including myself. Acceptance. Acceptance is the feeling everyone wants, and fear not having.

Some of her classmates snicker as the teacher orders her to the Principal 's office, while some cast her envious or sympathetic looks; Envious because she’d dared to disobey dress code, and sympathetic because she would likely be suspended for the rest of the day as…

Breedlove constantly feels, “uncomfortable with the few black women she met. They were amused by her because she did not strengthen her hair. When she tried to make up her face as they did, it came off rather badly.

This jealousy is the driving force that makes her “came into her own with the women who had despised her, by being more moral than they.” Pauline’s adaption to her communities…
