Time Lord

The Time I Got Stitches The worst thing that’s happened to me in my life was the time I had to get stitches. It was the summer of 2012. The weather was warm, but the wind was blazing. My cousin and I, who happened to live next door to each other in our old apartments were playing volleyball in the middle of the street, while our family were in the house hanging out. The ball we used was not hard so it could move with the wind. There were another set of apartments which everyone called the chinese apartments because there were a whole bunch of chinese people living there. The apartments were separated by a long fence. We lived in the back so the fence that separated us from the other appartments was right by us. We were told to be careful so…

all my air out making me gasp for air. First thing that came to my mind was "what do I do?", "Is it time?" I called my mother right away and said: "mom I think it 's time, the contractions are 5 minutes apart." She said it 's okay I’m on my way get your things ready to go. My first response was “but I have a test!” I look back I thin know naïve that my concern was missing my test. There I am in shock for a minute which passed by as in for an eternity. Until another contraction just stabbed…

In Once Upon a Time on Anatolia, a film directed by Nuri Bilge Ceylan, we see many motifs that indicate true human nature. Viewers are moved by the realness of the characters and how they can relate to us. From men being distracted by women, to showing the basic human instinct of self-preservation, this film shows us that no matter where you come from, everyone is similar. This movie expresses many aspects of human emotion and human nature, some more outright than others. One of the…

Let's start our story where all stories should start. "It was the dawn of time." No! We'll get to that train wreck of a time period another time. "So what will you name the baby?" Still no, we don't need his entire life story, better to leave some stuff to the imagination. Our story starts at a time when two groups were fighting for dominance of a single country. Neither of which at this moment in time should warrant an intervention from the multiverse traveling Time Lord, but this is a…

Manorialism was known as the Lord's Estate. During the Middle Ages the manor system was the basic economic arrangement for those of the time. The system rested on a set of rights between a lord and his serfs. “The lord provided the serfs with housing, farmland, and protection from bandits” (Littel). In return serfs tend to the lord's land, care for his animals, and performed other tasks to maintain the wellbeing of the land. Peasant women shared some part of the work in the farm with their…

interconnected social classes so that people were dependent on each other, the society got what they needed, and the citizens such as farmers supported the feudal order. Feudalism was the system of exclusive government and military institution which organized the society during a lawless and difficult time after the Roman Empire ended (Biel 9). In Feudalism, ownership of land was the foundation of superiority. This was because during the Middle Ages, people who owned land were the only ones…

farmers and laborers without land to work on gave whatever land they had to large landowners in return for physical and political protection from the landowners. In doing so, and giving their freedom to the landowners as well, they became serfs and vassals. To ensure protection from these large landowners, also known as lords, these serfs and vassals had to give their services and pay large incomes to them. These incomes, imposed by the lord, were considered taxes. This system was known as…

society. The Great Chain of being stated a place for everyone to be in. The king had to follow the pope. God was above all. Men were above women. Lords were above serfs. The chain of loyalty started from the Pope to the king, to lords, to the lord 's below them, and then finally, at the end of the chain were the serfs (Lenehan 4). The Great chain of being made the ties of the obligations connect to religion and this enforced it in a stricter way. God had to do some things for men. The pope had…

In the times of the Middle Ages, there was a very prominent social structure set into place. The Middle Ages had people such as; Kings, Lords, Nobles, Knights and, Peasants. During this time period, there was a Feudal system in place. This system meant that if someone like a peasant worked for a lord or the King, they would be rewarded with land. This system kept everyone satisfied. To be a knight meant that you were to fight, protect and work for the Lords of an area. Since the knights…

the economical side of Feudalism. It was based on a set of rights between a lord and his serfs. The Manor System was happening during the time of Feudalism and was a way of earning money and having power. The system was very one sided money wise. Between the lord and the serfs, the lord would benefit the most. The Manor System was a way to compromise all the “lands, buildings, and individuals” that belonged to a lord (Streissguth). The system worked by a lord giving out “housing, farmland, and…
