she watched the hustle of people as they scurried
in and out of the clinic doors. The ring of the

across the magazine table as they flipped through
an old and badly torn edition of Highlights. From
the short distance she could tell that the child
was around three or four years old and the mother
was expecting in a few months. Mom was in good
health and it...

Figurative Language Person Narrative
541 words
One of the most important decisions that an author
has to make when writing a story is how it is to
be presented to the reader. Whether its going to
be a first or a third person narrative, what kind
of language is to be used, and the writing style
of the author himself, play an immense role in the
story. In A&P, John Updike's detailed description
of the world through Sammy's eyes helps to bring
out the theme onto a level at which the reader
could relate to the story. The use of figurative

Organized Religion Animal Farm
1,025 words
Religion is said to be the opiate of the masses,
and it is definitely a point of interest in George
Orwell's famous novel Animal Farm. In it, Orwell
pointedly attacks religion in general and
Christianity in particular through the use of a
well placed symbolic bird by the name of Moses.
Orwell's stance is rather apparent as Moses darts
about the farm scene conveying the duality of
Christianity quite superbly. At the first mention
of the raven Moses, one immediately gets the
impression that he sta...

Isabel leaned her forehead down on the windowpane
and sighed deeply. The icy glass seared her
burning flesh and sent a rattling shiver down her
spine that reverberated to her fingertips. She
peered into the room almost longingly. The first
thing that caught her eye was the crackling fire
dancing in the old, brick fireplace. The light
from the fire flickered on the walls, illuminating
and casting shadows all at once on the black and
white photographs that hung all around the room.

the forbidden fruit from the Garden of Eden. It
essentially is the beginning of everything earthly
and heavenly, therefore repelling death. To

Fulfilling Prophecy John W

Our names Roman Art Names Our names function much
like scripts that we act out in our day-to-day
contact with other people. To put this idea
another way, the way we see ourselves behaving is
more or less the way we do behave in any given
situation. According to this line of thinking,
because names can have an effect on self-concept,
names can indirectly influence how we act.
However, research into the ways names affect
people has uncovered a link that shows that our
names, or at least other peop...
