The Blue Room

were sitting in the waiting room we thought about how this whole situation was so messed up. This girl who we were about to press charges against didn’t like us because of one of the dumbest reasons. Soon we got called in one by one into the court room to tell our side of the story. When they called me I was nervous that I would mess something up. As I sat down they had me swear to tell the truth. Next they had me identify who Tiffany was by pointing at her in the court room. I gladly pointed…

they did not and we decided to walk toward the direction where we saw people coming from. They were coming out of big blue doors and down steps to exit where we came in at. As we went to walk up the steps they informed us that we were supposed to go outside and come in another entrance. We had to walk up a ramp on the outside of the building into a side door. Luckily there was a blue tent covering us from the rain following the ramp. We approached about five security guards and one metal…

organize. One of the best ways to keep your room clean for longer is to get rid of a lot of stuff (or start keeping stuff in a different room), and making sure that everything in your bedroom has a place for it to go. This may be difficult for some. I currently live with my boyfriend and another couple, so I don't have a lot of control over what ends up in here sometimes. But everything has a designated space. Random things that don't belong in the room have a basket in the corner that I empty…

When reflecting on my character; my most dominant trait has stood out, being a caring person. From listening to a friend in need, feeding the homeless and volunteering for Make-A-Wish I have learned I love to lend a hand. It was seven o'clock in the evening when the sun finally started to set and the children in the neighborhood begin to head home, when I could distinctly hear Survivor by Journey; Jorge was calling my phone. Jorge had been distant for the past few weeks and as a matter of fact…

Ugh, the stench. The smell overwhelmed my nostrils, and a sour taste collected in the back of my throat. It looked even worse. The room seemed more like a Banksy museum—if Banksy museums were filled with half empty cup noodles, emptied out yogurt cups, and half eaten donuts. It’s hard to imagine that a human did this. As I pushed the window wide open, I thought to myself “I don’t get paid enough for this.” Said every housekeeper ever. Collect the trash. Turn off the air conditioner. I looked…

The kitchen was connected to the long living room by a large marble counter. The living room was divided into two spaces by brick pillars. The left side was where the couch and TV were and the right was where we had a pool table before my friend Justin accidentally broke it. The living room now had hard tile floors instead of carpet and oddly had a glass table in place of the living room furniture. Even with all these changes, the silence almost seemed to be filled…

As we finished eating we would sit quietly on the living room floor, staring at the glamourous Christmas tree that sparkled in blue and white lights. The tree was rich in bright colors that was over shadow by the monstrous pile of boxes wrapped in colors and shinny glittery paper with lush curls of ribbons streaming down to the floor. I sat quietly…

far background and is not noticed with a first glance at the artwork. The odd thing about these windows in the piece is that you cannot see anything outside through them. The entire piece of artwork looks to be different tints and shades of the color blue. The three elements of art that are most noticeable in this piece of artwork are color, value, and line. Of all of the elements of art, color is the most powerful. It attracts a viewer’s attention, and that is what happens in this piece of…

Tom’s house and the interior of the many rooms that Tom walks through with Nick, “We walked through a high hallway into a bright rosy-colored space” (Fitzgerald 13). The reason why red symbolizes wealth is because of the richness and quality of the paint and only wealthy people would be able to afford it. Lastly, the color red is used as a representation of wealth and elegance is on Jacob Olsen’s website he says, “Red and Gold books, wine colored rug, crimson room, pink suit, red circle on…

The room itself was grand and ancient, with walls of rough hewn stone, polished granite floors, and a ceiling as high as ten men. There were eight long tables, the shortest on a raised dais along the far wall, and seven more set orthogonal to the first and extending to the entry. Sheaves of wheat and sprays of spring blooms adorned the walls, and cornucopias spilled fruits, nuts and candies onto each table. There were dancers, at least a dozen of them, draped loosely in silks of gold and rich…
