Binge Drinking Drink Responsibly
944 words
From one generation to the next, we have seemingly
continued this ridiculous practice of "binge
drinking." Sure, let's all see who can drink the
most, who passes out first, and let's not forget
throwing-up? Yes, you haven't experienced the true
effects of binge drinking until you " ve thrown-up
all over yourself. But why, why is it that today's
generation feels that this is fun? Risking your
life to fit in isn't fun. Fun is going to an
amusement park or even a baseball game.
Unfortunately, colle...

John Updike Rabbit Run
716 words
While roaming through different John Updike
stories, I found styles of writing that varied
within each one. A typical Updike character was
self-absorbed and guilt ridden (Disc. Authors Pg.
). One of these stories I read was the Witches of
East wick. In this novel, I realized it was a high
spirited comedy. The romance along with the evil
involved made it a well-written fable. When career
thinking came up for John Updike he could not make
the decision on his future plans for life
(Thompson 976). W...

Type Of Song John Lennon Peace
927 words
John Lennon's song Imagine is by all means a
classic which will endure in the hearts of many,
as long as it is still around. With that in mind,
I believe that it should live on by being placed
in the UTD time capsule. It has many aspects that
make it the ideal song for such a project, from
its musical quality, to its imperative message of
peace. Lennon's melodic style conveys a poignant
innocence, which complements the theme of the song
perfectly. The music stays simple and seems to
grasp the ly...

bullied by fellow students. Seeing where this
topic was headed, I was intrigued to read on.
