Huck And Jim Jim Escape
1,055 words
Everyone needs someone to care about them. Usually
a person relies on their family to fill that role.
Besides caring, a family member offers many other
roles. A family provides for, relies on, teaches
and protects one another. A family member also
teases, plays jokes and gets mad at each other.
Regardless of the type of relationship two family
members have, they are there to care for and guide
one another. Throughout the story The Adventures
of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain, the two main

Groups Of People Incident Involving Prejudice
342 words
In today's diverse society, we must learn to cope
with many groups of people different from
ourselves. Whether the difference is ethnic,
religious, or professional, we always tend to
attach some undesirable quality to it. Often, this
results in stereotypes and, of course, prejudice.
Stereotypes are one of the main types of
prejudice. Almost everyone uses them, and not many
of us are even aware of it. For example, a friend
of mine once said, "Saudi kids are so rude!" I
knew she was just using thi...

Football And The Super Bowl
764 words
Knowing I had this assignment to complete, I was
planning on watching the Super Bowl alone. Then I
got invited to a Super Bowl party and I could not
refuse the opportunity to go out and socialize
with my friends. I was sick the past week and was
starved for some human contact. I am not really a
football fan, but this was Super Bowl Sunday, one
of the biggest parties of the year. So I went to
my friends house, armed with my notebook, and was
ready to analyze the game. Soon, more and more

Found Out About My Cousin Told My Friends Sexuality
1,157 words
Recognizing my sexuality and becoming aware and
familiar with my body has and still is not an easy
thing for me to do. One would think that compared
to the complex ideas of spirituality and
individuality, familiarizing myself with my body
would be a walk in the park. Yet with so many
negative views and attitudes out-weighing positive
ones, doing something as simple at talking about
anything sexual brings immediate discomfort to
either me the speaker, the listener, or usually
both. I actually rem...

N Word Words People

What is a word? A word is defined as a speech
sound, or series of them, serving to communicate
meaning. People have been taught that certain
words have certain meanings, some good, some bad
and some both. A word is not responsible for the
meaning it is intended to have, and therefore, no
word is a bad word. The evolution of slang has
played a pivotal role is this. An example of a
word that has two different meanings, both as
different as day and night, is the N. word. the
reason for my abbreviat...

Junior High First Year

She was my Literature teacher then. During my
first year in school, she struck terror in my
heart. And everyone elses of course. The mere
mention of her name made the most unruly classes
silent. The birds stopped screeching. Even the
earth felt still. T...
