Searching For Parking Late For Class System
586 words
It is pretty common that Universities use a system
of seniority rather than an auction for getting
parking spots at campus. An auction system will
give parking spots to those who value them the
most; however, this system actually create an
inefficient outcome. Can we imagine if our
university staffs or the professors do not get the
parking spots from the auction? Can they make a
good excuse for being late for class because they
don t have a parking spot? Faculty staffs work at
school everyday an...

Twentieth Century American Women
1,646 words
The 1920 s, a period that saw dramatic changes in
dress, was perhaps the first modern decade of the
twentieth century. The corseted woman of the
previous decade, with her hobble skirts and huge
hats, looked as if she came from another world
when compared to the modern woman of the 1920 s.
The result was extreme. Fashionable 1920 s female
body evolved from the elaborately trimmed dress
with its high waist position and ankle length
skirt at the beginning, to the simple, hardly

Unvanquished and McCarthy s All the Pretty Horses,

other, are very apparent and convey messages to

Hamlet And Horatio Character Traits

might parallel yet contrast another is said to be
a foil. A foil is used to clarify character traits
as well as issues in stories and plays. An example
of this would be Iago and Othello from the
Shakespeare play Othello. Othello is a trustworthy
and upstanding individual who has a slight problem
as far as spontaneity is concerned. Iago, on the
other hand, is deceptive and manipulative, but
Iago thinks things out thoroughly. Shakespeare

Hard To Find Sense Of Humor

Hard to Find It is said that a close friend is
hard to find. Webster says that a friend is one
attached to another by affection or esteem. But I

considerate, fun, kind, a sense of humor, and
always there for you are all ways to describe a
close friend. It s true that finding a person to
fit all these descriptions can be a mighty
difficult job, yet all of these adjectives are
