Steer Away Boyfriends Examine His Past Guy
1,112 words
These days it is hard to find a good boyfriend.
Guys are like parking spaces. The good ones are
taken and the rest are handicapped. I have never
really had any luck with finding an all around
good guy. I guess maybe it was because of the way
I went about finding a boyfriend. I tend to look
for the good-looking guys, but I never really get
to know them before I decide to date them. My past
experiences with some of my ex-boyfriends has
inspired me to go about a whole different approach

Heroin Addict Sonny Blues
1,151 words
Sonny's Blues starts off by not informing the
reader much about the characters which will be
presented in the story. However, the author does
have an interesting way of beginning the story,
for after reading the first two opening lines: I
read it in the paper, in the subway, on my way to
work. I read it, and I couldnt believe it, and I
read it again, it enables readers to continue on
with the story, so to help them understand the
significance of those two lines and why the author

Ten Years Modern Day

Have you ever come home from a hard day feeling
depressed, upset or stark raving mad? Maybe your
boss at the office was getting on your case or a
teacher singled you out in class. Teenagers and

Head To Toe Bound Feet

Islam is a religion that I have not learned much
about before now. I knew that the women wore
scarves covering their face, but I did not know
why. I knew that Muslims celebrated Ramadan, but I
did not know what that was. I have recently become
more interested in learning about the Muslim
religion because of a speech I heard in one of my
other classes, and the book Nine Parts of Desire
by Geraldine Brooks is a great insight into the
world of Islam and into the lives of Muslim women.

Point Of View People

I was told that the principal had used her
executive power to chop up my article into bits
that didnt contain the harassing, offensive points
that it originally owned. I was sad, very very
sad. Its tough for someone with a weak emotional
structure to be rejected and told Im harassing to
younger people. So, the advisors went to the
bargaining table, nothing changed. Therefore we

Hermia And Lysander Love

else? Is love predictable? For many the answer to
that question is yes...

The Merchant of Venice was written in 1598 by
William Shakespeare. The story is set in
Elizabethan times, which was the sixteenth
century. People back then were quite prejudiced
towards any race that was not Christian. They

hating the Jews. The fact that they supposedly
killed Jesus still angers many people today.
