Hours and hours of extensive research and planning went into this moment in time. Dim lights from the hallway protruded into my bedroom, and an eerie silence echoed through the crevices of my house as I imprinted my head deep into my sweaty palms.

My heart pulsated violently as I clicked on the left side of my mouse and selected the buy…

In the story of Never Let Me Go, the characters are not real people. They are clones for other people. Their purpose is to be grown up healthy and not have an idea of the real world. They are basically harvested for their organs. This is not very fair for these kids. Like all children, the Hailsham kids have hopes and dreams, are not to be denied of those. It is one of the great things about being a little kid, you do not know any better than to dream to be a superhero. As they get older,…

differently than I did. The concept of “world peace” had obviously appealed to me, but I had never really thought about the means of which worldwide peace could be attained. It had always seemed like someone else’s problem, as if my blind support of this intangible concept was enough to make me a decent person. I realize now that my blind support of an idea that I didn’t fully understand only increased my ignorance. Awful things are occurring every day, around the world. Wars rage on and…

Students in science teacher Katherine Levensailor’s first period class made sandals with Amazon’s delivery cardboard boxes inside and outside of room 803, on Oct. 19 for children in Haiti, victims of natural disasters. Haiti is still recovering from a catastrophic magnitude 7.0 earthquake that occurred in 2011 and Hurricane Matthew that claimed the lives of more than 877 people.

One good person could change the person could save the world we live in. With Donald Trump building a wall along the Mexican border and children crying for their deported parents, it can only get better from here. Right? What could possibly end these crude times? All the world's problems could be solved if a single person were to show some humor and sympathy towards others heavy hearts. Humor is an important trait in society. An example of can be shown in the book Tree Girl by Ben Mikaelson.…

Line from Utopia that I would wear on a t-shirt would be, “No matter how delicate the thread, they say, a sheep wore it once, and still was nothing but a sheep” (More 613). After reading this part, it stood out to me because I find this quote to be true, whether it be past, present, or future. Materials like wool or silk, are just what they are, materials. They don’t have any special meaning to them. I feel like people are quick to think that just because they have these “special” items or that…

Since Holden relies on upon his seclusion to save his separation from the world and to keep up a level of self-insurance, he frequently subverts his own endeavors to end his forlornness. For instance, his discussion with Carl Luce and his date…
