Tyrannosaurus

Veritas, relating to life, death, and time, is a universal literary theme, seen in many works of literature. The element of time is seen in “The Chaser” by John Collier, “A Sound of Thunder” by Ray Bradbury, “To the Virgins, To Make Much Of Time” by Robert Herrick, and “To a Young Girl at a Window” by Margaret Widdemer. The writers utilize symbolism to demonstrate the importance of spending time wisely, since the past cannot be undone. Herrick writes his poem as an experienced person speaking…

For my writing assignment I chose “My Beloved Brontosaurus”. This was such an interesting read to me because I feel as if he put so much effort and thought into it. For example he starts off the book by saying, “From the time I was a toddler, I desperately wanted to meet the gigantic herbivore.” He has had this interest clearly since he was a child and he goes into such depth about it. Many people feel otherwise as well. “My Beloved Brontosaurus” has many reviews including some from NY Times.…

He finds comfort in familiarity and is put out by change. His mother Lisa remembers many tantrums thrown by Samuel if his daily ‘uniform’ is being washed. Samuel becomes stressed and overcome by emotions if his t-shirt is not an option that day. This particular t-shirt fits him snuggly. He is disturbed by the…

The majority of Australia’s population lives near the coast, this is because the interior of the island is rough, hot, and dry. Water sources there are scarce, and many people have lost their lives when traveling across the rough dry terrain. They did not properly plan for the amount of water they might need in their travels, and when unforeseen events occurred they did not make it to their destination in time before running out of water. In early 2005, the city of Toowoomba, Australia was…

Survivor: Scared White Family Edition There’s a running tradition in my family. Every summer we go to Lake George, NY for a few days. Lake George is the birthplace of some of my most treasured memories with my family. My most treasured, and I must say most traumatizing, memory was the hike of our 2013 trip.

Consequences Most of us love the idea of going back in time and even better is the idea of having a time machine which would travel in the future. Technology nowadays is developing extremely fast so maybe in the near future people can develop a time machine where they can travel in time. If that happens some would just go back for entertainment and some for fixing mistakes. Nevertheless, going back in time maybe would cause problems in the history, because maybe not everyone would know how to…

she claimed to be her “favorite church shoes,” which were a pair of clunky, black, skid-resistant tennis shoes. Her hair was chopped right above her ears and she wore skinny-rimmed glasses. She went by a name resembling “spunky afrodite polytmus tyrannosaurus” and didn’t want us to call her by anything different. Even though there were only six on her team and six were allowed to be on varsity, she preferred to golf JV. People like her made golf quite entertaining to…

characters that interested me and I was free to draw it however I wanted to, although I always wanted the drawing to be as perfect as possible. After watching the sequel to Jurassic park when I was 7 years old, I did my best to draw the scenes with the Tyrannosaurus Rex and the Velociraptors. Back then, drawing was different to me as a child who had not known about the history of it in the fifth grade. Drawing…
