The story, “The Storm,” is a lustful sequel to “The ‘Cadian Ball,” which were both written by Kate Chopin. The story takes place in Louisiana while a major storm is brewing. During this storm, Bibinôt and his young son, Bibi, are at a local market running some errands when they realize they are too far away from home to go out into the storm. To stay safe, they decided to stay at the market for a little while and buy some shrimp to allow the storm to pass through. Meanwhile, Bibinôt’s wife and…

Despondency The bitterly cold air is blasting into my face and the rain is clattering down onto my skin like thousands of bullets being shot at once. As Arthur and I dash through Deauville Avenue, goose bumps start racing on my limbs. My plump lips are turning blue like an afternoon sky. Inelegantly, I fall through the doors of a petite boutique determined to find something to keep me snug and warm. I catch a glimpse of a sleek, smooth, silky scarf. Flabbergasted, I stand in awe…Wow!…

Hurricanes Hurricanes are monstrous, large, swirling storms, with huge and strong winds. They are one of nature’s most deadly beauties, which that can blow up to 252 km pr hour(157 mph or more) which is similar to the speed of some high-speed trains. The storms form over warm ocean waters while also able to strike land. When the hurricane reaches land, it will push a wall of water ashore. That water is called a storm surge, and along with the rain, the hurricane can also cause some deadly…

A thunderous exclamation is more pronounced than a timid chime. When there is a thunderstorm, the rumbling vibrations echoing the skies is usually more petrifying than the clashing lights filling the clouds. When a mother scolds a child, the way her voice fumes and heightens make the hair of a child’s arms rise. When a person is terrorized by another, it is not the expression of a livid face that ceases the occurrence, but the sound of a voice that wants to be heard. A craven characteristic can…

The meaning that we derive from our memories of past is shaped according to our present situation as well as on our future anticipations. Thus, the past is not “solid and settled” but rather dynamic (Randall 23).When Elizabeth looks back at her past she discovers altogether new meanings to it, and interprets the past according to her needs. In other words, Elizabeth persuades the past. Now when she thinks of her promiscuity and lust she finds herself guilty. “Looking back, lust is always…

Hurricanes are very strong and powerful storms that form over tropical ocean water. The larger they get the more destruction they can cause (Aboff & Sotirovski, 2012). Hurricane Sandy took place on October 22, 2012. The vast majority of the damage was in the Northeast coast of the United States of America. Not only can hurricanes cause lots of damage to houses and nature, but they can cause deaths, and financial problems as well. Hurricanes can be caused in many ways. The definition of a…

A hurricane is a low-pressure cyclonic storm that develops in the tropical ocean from the easterly wave (Guida). They typically form between 5 degrees and 20 degrees latitude north or south (Guida). Hurricanes move in a counterclockwise motion from east to west in the trade winds and from west to east in the westerlies (Guida). Hurricanes have an average diameter of 344 miles and move 10 to 31 miles per hour (Guida). The strongest part of a hurricane lies in the right front/ northeast quadrant…

The long days and nights riding to Bree started molding into each other so I didn’t have the best idea about how long it has been. I looked up at the stormy night sky dark with clouds filled with rain and thunder that blocked out the light from the stars and the moon. Lightning could be seen in the distance zapping at the ground. I made my horse go faster so we could get to Bree sooner. It was about twenty miles away from where we were. After a loud clap of thunder shook the ground, rain started…
