We Gotta Get out of This Place

Of Mice and Men, by John Steinbeck, was published in 1937 and took place in the 1930’s when many different struggles occurred. This was the time that the Great Depression swept through the nation, as well as the Dust Bowl in the midwest. This novel told the story of two migrant workers, George and Lennie, looking for jobs throughout California. From the beginning, due to Lennie’s disability, we learned George’s duty to take care of and protect Lennie after his Aunt Clara died. George’s decision…

We walked onto the door-step and randomly shrunk, then we shot down a hole in the ground. AHHHH!!!! BAM! Owwww. I think this is a trap! How do we get out? (Asked Makenzie Curiously) I don’t know or we would have been done out of here!! Well i am going to go to sleep. Colorado has already ((Hit The Hay!)) So, I should probably should get some shut-eye to. Night Kali Yawned ((Mackenzie.)) ((Morning)) (Stretch) Ahhhh…. Morning girl’s Mackenzie! Colorado! Oh, (Laugh) you guys are still asleep!…

Dean moved the automatic gear shift to reverse and we both spun towards the center of the car, craning our necks to look behind. We were met part way by a snarling Julie. Her eyes were white like her skin and her jaws spread wide. She had turned. We both screamed as the car shot backwards wildly at a high speed. The momentum brought the now undead Julie forward just as fast. My neighbor had casually reached his arm around behind my seat as he had turned to support the twist in his body.…

Our Story takes place in an laboratory in a big city where a group of lab workers was testing if people would like older games better than newer games. While they were working one of the people in the line sneakily went out of the line and started messing with the lab equipment and started knocking over everything, the loudness of the breaking glass, the splashing of water, and all the smells icky smells of certain chemicals on the floor. Charles (one of the group members) notices right away;…

studio album, but this one's significance may be greater than either of his previous releases. This is the first album release since one of his close friends and group member A$AP Yams' tragic death. Still channeling the emotions from that, Rocky expressed on some of his emotions on this album. Although, the album has received a great share of criticism thus far we can all agree that the timing of the release is probably what's hurting it's perception the most. But, it's obviously out of…

possible, and the next few examples are just a few options that I have to suggest for anyone in these circumstances. First off we need to have some kind of transportation in this huge world due to our need to make a living as in getting to work, to a family members house, and basically anywhere you want to go. On the plus side we do in fact have lots of options on how to get places rather quick. In big cities such as Houston,…

before. He wasn’t exactly Sherlock Holmes, but he sure could solve a mystery. “We’re sure to get an A from Mrs. Gim now!” exclaimed Micah. “Let’s hurry to the science lab.” Ushered Cory. They hurried to the tech room to find Mrs. Gim leaning over her computer, concentrating on an email. “Well, hello boys!” Mrs. Gim said lightly. “We’ve just finished our S.T.E.M. project.” Micah informed Mrs. Gim “Great!” “Place it over there, please.” She asked them. Once they placed the elevator down, they…

Innocent? Friendship, or a fraud? This is usually the question people ask when they feel betrayed by a close friend. Betrayal could never be forgiven. In John Steinbeck’s book Of Mice and Men, did George need to kill Lennie, or could it have been avoided? This action makes George look like he did not care for Lennie. Also, George is said to be harsh or mean to Lennie throughout the book. However, George cared for Lennie like he was family. George shows this through securing Lennie a job,…

This sense of hopelessness this creates within the audience knowing the character is unaware and they can do nothing else but continue reading, furthers the struggles these characters must face and utterly demolishes any chance these characters had at getting that farm they wanted. Steinbeck’s deliberate choice to include dramatic irony in this scene conveys George’s own conflict and struggle in the story that he must overcome…

“trust is both a precious and dangerous thing.” The characters are used throughout the story to show the theme of “trust” when all of the workers think that Lennie and George are up to something because they are friends and depend on one another. This is something so odd to the workers because they are always watching their backs, and as a result live in brutal isolation, one worker named Slim even says, “Slim looked through George and beyond him. ‘Ain't many guys travel around together,’ he…
