The detail in a noAs soon as a novel must be read or becomes part of a literary course, the joy of reading it is immediately lost due to the fact that the particular novel may not be interest to the student, the student may hurry to finish the novel and by the extent to which the novel is studied. The joy of reading a novel is lost when a novel is not of interest to the reader because the reader would not be able to relate to any of the characters, and would therefore not be able to fully imagine what the author intended to be imagined at a particular moment in ...

... to the article. Most young people do not have enough extra time to do community service. I have been doing a survey about the subject matter for a few days, and I have come up with some interesting results. It seems that eight out of ten students that are about to graduate high school are planning to go to college after they graduate. I also asked them about doing community service. Most of them said that they would be getting a job, and they would not have time to do community service. My survey has brought me to the conclusion that students who are thinking about going to college should not be thinking about doing two years of community service. Community ...

... to King Solomon how she and the other woman both lived together and both had a son. She also goes on to tell the King that one night the other woman lay on her son and killed him; nevertheless, this same woman took the living son and claimed him as hers. The other woman said, “No! The living one is my son; the dead one is yours” (I Kings 3:22). After listening to the plea of the two women, King Solomon told his servants to bring him a sword, and the solution would be to cut the baby in half. His plan was to trick the two women by offering to cut the baby in half, allowing one half to go to each mother. The real mother of the child said to the King “Please, my ...

... a pharmacist and it was very obvious that his knowledge of drugs would either get him into trouble or make him successful. He was a full time student, but he was on the wrong road and his teachers had no idea. If only one teacher had taken the initiative to try to help my uncle with his interest in pharmaceuticals, maybe he could have used his knowledge in a positive way. Teachers are supposed to be role models and people that teenagers can talk to, whether they are having trouble at home, need someone who may understand them better, or for actual help in the class. I know that I want to be a part of the education system and I want to work with teenagers, whet ...

... way to my friends girlfriends house. Taking turns doing donuts with his car in the sand we passed away about an hour. I needed even more of a rush so I hoped on top of the car, held onto the roof, and told my friend to take off. After exiting the sand pit we flew off down the piper pond road going about 70. My eyes and face were getting wind burnt so I tapped on the wind sheild for him to slow down. After coming to a stop I told him he had to try it so again we sped off but this time he was the one flapping in the wind. When we pulled into his girlfriends house he jumped off the car laughing and rubbing his windburnt face. Still we hadn't enough excitement s ...

... We then returned to draw numbers for the order of the bands. I eagerly pushed my way to the front of all the other bands, being the obnoxious prick I am, and drew the first card. Unfortunately I drew the second band on stage out of nine. The best position to be in is about fourth or fifth band because that is when the crowd starts getting into the music. Pissed off I haphazardly wandered back to my group to inform them of my greatest mistake. We loaded the equipment into the worlds slowest elevator, and stumbled our way to the backstage lounge. After I had read graffiti covered walls until my heart was content I noticed much writing by some of m ...

... around $60,000 and he wants $300,000. The lawyer for Guge went first. He went on forever it seemed like. It was over an hour that he went on talking. Some of the jurors were falling asleep as well as the judge while he was speaking. It seems that he could have been more concise with his argument. Pretty bad when even the judge nods off. The judge even got up and left during part of the closing arguments. The states attorney began his closing arguments. His name was McKinney. His argument was straight to the point. He got his point across and actually kept members of the jury awake. While he was giving his closing arguments, the two attorneys for Gu ...

... Classmates would give everyone Valentine cards. Some extremely generous kids would even attach candy to the cards. It didn't matter if you hated each other, on Valentines Day everyone put aside their differences and even presented cards to the children nobody liked. That one day of love seemed to unify the worst of foes through love and forgiveness. I could hardly wait for that day to come. As the night before Valentines Day had rolled around, anticipation had escalated to an all time peak. Nevertheless, it was all set aside as my parents once again started to fight. My brother and I were sent to the car in the garage so that we would not witness them fighting ...

... empty room, knowing he owned some ties. It was just as he had left it, I guess, because I'd never really gone in his room. I picked the red one he wore in his graduation pictures and slipped it over my head. I stepped into the bathroom, combed back my whitening hair, and left for the office. The early morning sun shone in through the broken blinds that I noticed hadn't been replaced as I asked. I looked over the pile of paperwork awaiting me. “Why the hell do I gotta do all these damn reports?” "Actually, you don't, not today." I turned to see a man much like myself, but older and with his piece on. He was a little taller, but with the same sagging f ...

... as they pushed him forward. He could run unleashed, through a park filled with greens and waters or on a city sidewalk. He would look so beautiful and natural surrounded by the dark colors of the city. I can see the scene and I can move on. My eyes go back to the girl in front of me. I can't stray too long, I'll be caught surveying my surroundings and accused of not paying attention. I bring my focus back to her eyes and then her mouth. A close up of her lips would be a good shot. Forming each word, detailed curves and slopes. I've captured the shot. I've been told before that I see the world through the eye of a viewfinder. I actually like that view. As a ...
