Waiting So Long

Family: In the short stories “The Chrysanthemums” by John Steinbeck and “The Horse Dealer’s Daughter” by D.H. Lawrence, the protagonists, Elisa and Mabel, are treated poorly by their families because they are women. In the short story “The Chrysanthemums”, Elisa’s husband, Henry, does not treat her equally and does not treat her like a person. She is just kind of treated like she is Henry’s possession. “‘Good,’ she said. ‘Good for you.’” (Steinbeck 2) This shows that her husband runs the farm…

drag in and slump, looking disconsolate and a little lost, waiting for a jump start.” (Edmundson) So, I’m saying that some technology is good but not for an entire class. Working online is not the best way to learn. You’re not interacting with others, or there is no way to ask any questions. If you are like me and ask a lot of questions, classes online make things ten times harder than it needs to be. I need to be engaged with everyone so I know what’s going on. I need someone to show me in…

-Your next step is to make sure that you don 't overwhelm yourself with too much to do at a time. So the rule would be not more than 2 tasks a day. So, take your immediate group of the tasks put into it, and spread them over the week and up to 3 days after the week is ended. Do it as if you were stretching a shirt, so it can fit because that is the goal. You have to spread and stretch things so they can fit your mental and not the other way around. -Do the same thing with "the later group",…

The gym, it feels so natural, so free, like my new second home. My words when I went to the gym for the first time. I loved the gym. I wanted to be big and strong just like the people around. Yeah I didn’t fit in quite yet but how hard can it be? They all did it, so can I. So there I went, I started my first day at the gym. As many of you can see when you look at my arms that look like spaghetti noodles or my biceps looking like a bean my gym craze stopped after that first time. I lifted…

obstacles that I had to conquer to get to this point in my life, I can honestly say that I have come a long way. However, even though there were many obstacles in my way, I appreciate and value my past experiences because they have molded me into the person I am becoming. I often tell myself, there is a beauty in the struggle, and I say this because one seems to appreciate things more after having to work so hard to obtain them. Education and the experiences I have come across during my academic…

twelve and ten, circling the playground with plastic swords, battling each other and the imperceptible adversaries encompassing us. Emi has skin the shade of dim espresso and poufy hair maneuvered once more into a thickset pig tail on her head. I have long brownish hair down to the center of my back. We are both unshod. I am Storm, and she is Blizzard. I control the climate, the sky, the mild around me. She has the capacity the make effective snow storms, cause rain, slush, hail. We are playing…

In a world obsessed with knowledge we are ignorant about so many things, but is that actually a bad thing? I don’t think so. Think about death. Our death is the one thing that we are completely ignorant about. We have no idea when the moment will come when we cease to exist. Even people who have a terminal illness and have three months to live don’t even know the exact moment they will die. In our ignorance we can continue to live and embrace what we have. If we knew how we would die we would…

One reason he put this motif in here, is to communicate the idea that your vision does not limit you to what you see in people and everything really.That’s why Bloor put Paul in a position like this so that we can understand that sight has many meanings. It can be taken literally as in you physically see something. It can also be taken figuratively like in a song or a poem. Different people use these two kinds of sight differently. Some are very serious…

What can you bring to the Mineage Network?: My name is Epicaxe_Nick and I can bring many things to the mineage community. I've been playing minecraft for over 3 years and have played mineage for around 1 1/2 years ago. What I can bring to the mineage community is way more than just a helper. I can bring someone who cares about the community and will try their best to change it. I can bring hope to mineage when it comes to needing someone that is up for the job. I personally really enjoy helping…
