Miller My two favorite short stories are “The Lottery and “Young Goodman Brown”. Making a decision which is better will be a tough choice. Although both stories are similar in its theme, it is transported differently in each story. The stories display different character analysis and word choice. I. My favorite pastime is reading short stories. a. Two stories I can read repeatedly. i. “The Lottery” by Shirley Jackson. ii. “Young Goodman Brown” by Nathaniel Hawthorne. b. The

Wanderlust - the insatiable desire to travel the world, to sip on your favorite latte at a local cafe in Paris, or to walk among the ancient ruins in Malaysia. Then, of course, rational reasoning brings you back to reality and you put your travel plans on hold, hoping to visit these romanticised locations eventually, and never actually following through. The thing is, most trips do not require spending an exorbitant amount of money. In fact, I often find that many of the easiest ways to save money

What’s it like with Briana gone? There was no simple answer to this ever-dreaded question. How could I communicate the bygone excitement of waking up every birthday and finding the first clue of my sister’s annual scavenger hunt tucked beneath my pillow? How could I explain our random, self-invented words without seeming like a lunatic? How could I express the yearning I had to return to the days when Briana and I would make workout videos disguised as hip grannies, choreograph dance routines to

My favorite place to travel to while on vacation is Orlando, Florida. Orlando has become our home away from home and the traditional family vacation spot. During our vacation there we experience a lot of shopping spots, great restaurants and last but not least Disney World. We take our family there every year and we always have a wonderful time. But our favorite place to relax and visit while in Orlando is to stay at our vacation home. We plan and prepare excitedly for the special time

their goals. “The Big Apple”, otherwise known as the city that never sleeps, is a place where all dreams are attainable. People from all ages go to New York for all it has to offer. A few of my favorite places to visit in the city are the Statue of Liberty, Radio City Music Hall, Central park, and finally my all-time favorite, Times Square. If it were not for these historical places, New York City wouldn’t be the place it is today. The first stop is well known everywhere, and has been standing

Magic in the Kitchen My wife has a new hobby: baking. Since I bought her Vitamix, a heavy duty blender, she is so in love with it that she bakes even twice a week. I need to say that for the person who has never done this before, she is doing really well. So I decided to watch her make my favorite cranberry walnut bread (which technically tastes like a cake so I am not sure where that "bread" word comes from). It is a Friday evening when she decides to prepare this delicious

Six flags with my friends and they dared me to one of the scariest rides called V2 in the park. I was so scared to go but I had to at least one time so we waited in line about 30 minutes and in those 30 min, I was so scared. I was shaking a lot.

Lake Barkley is a very important place in my life. We have been traveling to the lake ever since I was very young; it has become part of my life and means something to me. I made a lot of new friends and experienced some really cool and exciting times. Even if the sun is so hot that it is burning your skin or you are stressed from work, you are always happy while at the lake. It all started when my dad bought our houseboat. I guess you could say the obsession to be out on the water began here
