The North Face

when you accomplished all your homework and showed them proudly to your parents? How many of us keep in our memory the happy faces of our loved ones? Conversely, do any of us remember not doing school homework before going to play or watch TV and one of our loved ones caught us in the middle of such disobedience? Do we remember what happened next? Do we remember the face our parent showed to us? Because we failed following rules or morals that our parents told us to follow, did they stop…

The products must be placed and grouped by their product line. Meaning, if line A includes a face scrub, a face exfoliator, acne cream, and a face lotion, these products must all be placed in one area. This is a necessary method as opposed to placing all of the face lotions from all product lines in one area, then all of the face scrubs in another, this also being a way for creating a confusion, a mix of ingredients that will result in no effectiveness, and inconsistency…

She spends her summer daydreaming about them but finds that “all the boys fell back and dissolved into a single face that was not even a face, but an idea…” (Oates 292). It is this very idea that Arnold embodies in her mind. Arnold has many strange traits, but no defining characteristics of his own. Everything about him, from the way he dresses, “which was the way all of them…

Life has a way of continuing, of moving on without you, if you let it. Time keeps ticking, the earth keeps spinning and somehow, you keep breathing. Even when the world falls around you and buries you, you still breathe. Eventually, you get back up or face the alternative. Once upon a time, I wanted the alternative, but it wasn’t meant to be. And now I knew why. She was beautiful. Simply beautiful, as if that one single word could even come close to describing what I felt when I looked at her.…

Twist I have always contemplated the idea of a traditional American family. Thinking about a white picket fence life with a dog, two parents, and a big house with a red door has been a way to pass the time in my less than ideal life. Why do I imagine a family outside of my own? My family is pathetic. While I dream of my family being similar to the Brady Bunch, the tragic reality is, we are nothing like a sitcom family. My only family is my drunk, druggy, prostitute mother, who is not exactly…

my palms damp with sweat. There it was, staring me in the face. My placement test results. In black and white it read, “Enroll in College Algebra or Pre-Calculus.” I couldn’t believe what I was seeing! Was this correct? How could this be accurate when six months previously, I had tested below average? My head spun with emotions as I took my results and walked to the Butler advising office. I sat there with a blank stare on my face as the short haired lady, sitting behind the desk,…

Are You Going, Where Have You Been?” exhibits much less of a confident role in the story as the pages turn. Connie’s character is an example of a person who flaunts false confidence in any reasonably comfortable situation, only to drop it all in the face of danger. Connie is not what you would expect from a major character and ultimately pays for her over abundance of false confidence in the final pages of the story. The transition from confidence to terror can be measured as Arnold Friend…

seems to be facing varying tribulations it only makes sense to illustrate these hardships through writing. One primary hardship many people in this society face is the struggle for liberty from many things, including but not limited to, liberty from others, oneself, and Mother Nature herself. First, post-Civil War society requires real people to face hardship in their lives.
