The Stuff

I am Lilac Grace. The sister of Lacy. It is Lacy’s story I am telling. Since she can’t tell it herself. Her story begins like this…. At first we thought is was a normal, everyday, run-of-the-mill cold. You know,fever, headache, and loss of the sliver of appetite that she had in the first place. Looking back the appetite loss, it could have been that she just wanted more attention but I couldn’t get that answer even if I wanted to. Then … it started getting worse. She would wake up in…

Personally when dealing with loss I deal with it a number of ways, I went and saw someone, I've secluded myself and I also even put on that brave smile. In The Catcher in the Rye Holden handles it it his own way. He tries to fit in, he wants to do stuff kids his age do like drink, smoke, and party. When first reading the story you think Holden is just a slacker who doesn't care about school, but when getting into the book you realize that Holden doing bad in school mostly has to do with the loss…

children work today and more than half work in dangerous conditions that can result in death. These children are selfless and would do anything to help their families. Children are scared emotionally and wonder why they can’t be the person receiving the stuff they make after all their hard work, that pays very little. In states,”It is only half past seven o'clock in the morning. Boys of his age should be eating breakfast and getting ready for school” ( Mr.Coal,page 4, paragraph 1). These little…

Control theory When it comes to burglary it has told be down for the plainly fact, the police have taken record numbers of criminals of the street. The number of police has also improved on the streets because of on the beat and pro- active policing. Also once the stop and frisk came into play that has helped drastically. By saying this they are letting criminals know it is harder to commit crimes because of things like this. Also, people are more alert now of days and deterrent. Arson and…

In the book Fahrenheit 451, the captain of the firemen, Captain Beatty, was telling Montag about why books became banned. He said that people just lost interest in them and that they started to do more instead of think more. I think being intellectual is more important, but in our society today people value knowing how to do things. I believe that being intellectual is more important than just knowing how to do things. I think it's more important because it will get you farther in life. It's…

keep all the food that's bad for it away and give it that food that it needs. And lastly, i want it so I will have something to take care of. If we do get a dog I will do anything to keep the dog safe. I will wash it every day so it will not make stuff smell bad. I will make it take walks every day for to get exercise and be healthy. I will feed it every day to keep it from dying of hunger. That is how I will take good care of it so this dog does die of anything. . What if my dog…

“ It was garbage day. I had just gotten back from class. I got out of the car and the male neighbors next door were standing by their car just staring. As i was pulling the trash can in, I noticed HUGE slashes in the top of the trash can. The plastic was thick. I wondered what had happened. I asked my mom when she got home from work if she had noticed anything. She said no and went out to go look. She said the lid was not like that when she pulled the trash can out this morning. I told her how…

A problem in our community is littering. It’s a problem because people don’t care about our community and thinks it’s alright to litter. People in our community litter because they’ll be driving down the road and don’t want to put it in their car so they will just throw it out the window. When they could just put it on their back floor if they have a car or in the bed of their truck if they have a truck. Most people think it’s alright to litter because they don’t think it harms…

This story develops many themes over the course of the story. The most important themes are the ones of deception and lying. Deception is the action of deceiving someone. When you deceive someone, you are taking advantage of them. When you take advantage of someone, you are making a bad person out of yourself and those around you. The impression that gives off is that you are a bad person and don’t appreciate other people’s feelings or values. In the story, the little girl uses deception to help…

A disaster can affect people in many different ways; the disaster can especially effect the socioeconomic statue of people within it. A disaster may affect the upper and low classes in different ways; because the upper class has the ability to get out of the situation more quickly than the lower class because they do not have as many opportunities as the upper class. The classes can experience the disaster differently, just because of their social statue; the lower classes are always those who…
