Altitude Problem Morning People

The pale pearly light of pre-dawn was spreading
across the sky above Mount Kinabalu on the
northeast of East Malaysia. The early morning
silence was shattered by the bustle of campers
getting ready. I drew a sharp intake of air. As I
peered outside my tent, the forest around the
camping ground came to life. Birds started
chirping and a morning breeze blew past, sending
shivers down my spine. There were three other
groups hiking together with us on this climb.
Waking my friends up, I headed to pr...

Goddess Of Victory Physical Abuse Life

At first glance Kate Collins The story of an hour
does not seem particularly interesting. A closer
look must be taken in order to see the true
meaning of the story. There is more symbolism in
this four-page story than in most of the four
hundred page books I have read throughout my life.
It is probably impossible to find every sciolistic
word in the story, but some things definitely
stick out. The first sentence of the story is
knowing that Mrs. Mallard was afflicted with heart
trouble, great ca...

I looked ahead of myself, letting my feet do the
work, for a moment. The trail seemed so distant
and lengthy in front of me. The blue sky filled
with scattered puffy, white like cotton clouds.
The long grasses tickled at my legs, which were
covered with nothing more than my shorts. My
boyfriend and I were on our annual hike to Clear
Lake. An obviously attractive name for a beautiful
body of water. Clear Lake was an icy cold from the
glacier run off but after a 2 day hike up a

" The Doubt of Future Foes" by Queen
Elizabeth I The doubt of future foes exiles my

be, if reason ruled or wisdom weaved the web. But
clouds of toys untried do cloak aspiring minds,
Which turn to rain of late repent, by course of

Dreams are a communication of body, mind and
spirit in a symbolic communicative environmental
state of being. Our brains are in constant
activity. Different states of consciousness like
awake, asleep, alert, drowsy, excited, bored,
concentrating or daydreaming cause different brain
wave activity. Our conscious mind, or the part we
think with, our window into life, only takes up a
very small portion of our brain activity, which
many people say is only 10 %. Other areas control
things like breathi...

three main themes that she addresses: death, love,
and nature; as well as the impact of the word.

Emily Dickinson Hope is the Thing With Feathers-
In Hope is the Thing With Feathers, she uses many

in each of the three stanzas, the second and the
fourth line rhymes with each other. Along with her
irregular rhymes, she uses irregular punctuation
to direct her readers into certain flow of the
poem. In this poem, she uses many hyphens to
