rather young age. He was not afraid to put himself out there and he did by starring in many of his school plays. Although his acting career did not take off immediately he eventually was in many films. Some of the shows he starred in were The Twilight Zone, Sea Hunt, and Bonanza. Leonard Nimoy’s career really took off when he was cast as Spock. That role "earned Nimoy three Emmy nominations" says Biography.com editors.

can have a big impact on the messages and themes that are portrayed in a story. I challenged myself to improve the way that I conveyed an image in each sentence. Not only was my story influenced by Kafka it was also inspired by an episode of the Twilight zone episode where the main character attempts to look like a pig in order to fit in with society even though she would be considered beautiful in our society. When I began to write my story I wondered if I should change…

with. Why would we want to fight against popular belief from millions of supporters just to hold our own individual argument. This also relates to races and beauty now because, in our society, although we have different beauty standards from the Twilight Zone, we have the exact same concept of the representation of race in beauty. In the film, all the characters, even background characters are white. Towards the end of the film, not only were they all white but they pretty much all look the…

1A. When Haroun explains why he must go and confront Khattam-Shud, Salman Rushdie expresses his personal opinions on censorship. For example, when General Kitab questions who should be sent to address “the Old Zone situation”, Haroun volunteers. He proceeds to explain why he made this brave decision by saying “All my life I’ve heard about the wonderful Sea of Stories, and Water Genies, and everything; but I started believing only when I saw Iff in my bathroom the other night.” (page 137).…

"THREE, TWO, ONE!" The voice screams as the ride countdown begins, and suddenly we get shot out of the starting point at a whopping 60 miles an hour straight into the dark blacklight lit abyss. This along with the fearful drops of a lightning struck tower, a now empty concrete pad and two stunt shows along with many more make up Hollywood Studios. Another with flying elephants and two runaway mine trains make up the Magic Kingdom. Then the Yeti infested mountains and Dinosaur cities make up the…

Grades- I previously attended Prairie View Middle School from 6th grade up until 8th grade. I think that Prairie View was a good school for me, For the most part I was able to get good grades (about 3.0 or higher) and make a lot of friends. Relationships with my teachers though where a whole other story. 6th grade was when I was able to achieve the best grades. The highest G.P.A. i’ve ever got was a 3.8, and I achieved that in 6th grade. I also got 3.0s and 3.5s that year too. I also…

Apocalypse meets Star wars in this refreshing novel! The Guardians by B. L. Barger is a post-apocalyptic road trip with an original twist. It's a mishmash of Sci-fi and fantasy that works surprisingly well. The book opens with a bang, literally, with an alien invasion of Earth no less, then builds up to an explosive climax. The story follows Maxine, a forty-something woman living in the post-apocalyptic United States. Her profession isn't mentioned, which I found odd, though the author…

Instead of getting involved with their theatre department during my first year, I moved down to Orlando to participate in the Disney College Program. I would spend the Spring semester of 2010 working at The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror. Once I’ve moved back up to Illinois, I would take my first collegiate Acting class at COD. This would begin a snowball effect consisting of taking many theatre classes, performing in 8 COD theatre productions and stage managing…

wrote the piece, because I never explained it, it just worked out in the end. That was the end of that story too, it just ended like that with no real epilogue or reasoning behind any of it. Also I think I stole the idea from an episode of the twilight zone I saw when I was younger. That is why I hate writing so much now at least in the creative sense. I think maybe if I actually cared about school at that time it could have maybe been better but i’m not sure about that either. I remember that…
