The sun shimmers across the balcony floor in a dancing wave of light, not a cloud in sight and only the slight breeze through the trees gives any character to todays summer weather. I remember being a child, when the weather was either radiating or the polar opposite; When it was too hot in the summer and unbearably cold in the winter, leaving the house was always a chore which either required you to be almost naked or hold five layers on your torso. That was before the anti-global warming act…

Anyway back to the story. ...I make a dash past My Mum’s prize scarlet red and sky-blue roses and enter our house via the kitchen door that My Mum always leaves wide open when I am outside. I rush to a stop in front of the yellow plastic-surfaced kitchen table where My Mum is sat facing me with both hands wrapped tightly round her ancient commemorative Royal Jubilee mug looking glum. My lunch of a ‘Best of Both Worlds” wholemeal/ white bread jam sandwich is on a light green ten centimetre…

It was a perfect summer day outside; the type of weather a family would enjoy outside on their front yard. It was at least eighty-five degrees outside with a slight breeze, kids were either wearing tank tops or tee-shirts with shorts and slippers, sundresses, or outside with their bathing suits. Outside you could see; kids playing tag, opening the fire hydrant, playing basketball and eating hot dogs and burgers. With all this occurring my family decided to sit out in the front yard and relax.…

The French Revolution commenced in 1789. A good majority of historians can come to an understanding that the French Revolution was an affair that altered Europe forever, very similar to the American Revolution, and that happen just ten years prior.

Overseas, quite a few major wars had occurred in the 30 plus years preceding the French Revolution, also France was involved somewhat, in most of them. The…

her glove box. Opening it, she pulled out her sidepiece. For a brief minute she checked it out, making sure that there was a full clip of ammo and one in the chamber, ready if she needed it. Lifting up the back of her flannel shirt and the underneath tee-shirt, she placed the loaded firearm in the waistband of her jean shorts. She was really beginning to regret wearing these shorts because of how cold it was at night time outside of her car, and the thin pair of tights she was wearing weren't…

John Steinbeck once stated a quote reading,” Man himself has become our greatest hazard and our only hope.” John Steinbeck’s quote was supported by many events and outcomes in our past society.

Man made the car to make travel simple, and the car made pollution, man made the lightbulb to brighten up surroundings, the lightbulb created…

beautifully crafted paint strokes, the concept of the piece was really awesome. For this painting, Kehinde Wiley found inspiration from the old European aristocracy. The painting is a younger, black man who is wearing a hoodie on his head with a graphic tee. Surrounding the man is gold and black vines, in which some cross over onto him. His posture and form is incredibly straight and focused. Wiley's intent of this painting was to propose the idea of…
