Vietnam and america are very different, and even have a history of tension, but both have notably distinct and different cultures. From all walks of life, something is done differently than in america and has a reason for being so.

Something more sad than beautiful. The sad thing disguised in this quote is a battle. One that leaves a group of soldiers bloody and leaning on their adrenaline to push them that last distance before dying of exhaustion and their wounds.

Three chairs would be placed around the drop leaf table. On the table there would be a deck of cards, 3 pennies at each place setting, and a pink Depression glass sherbet parfait glass with gold around the rim.

English Grade 11 “The Dead Butcher and his Fiend Like Queen” "This dead butcher and his fiend like queen", is the way in which Malcolm describes Macbeth and Lady Macbeth in the last speech of the play.

Throughout the

dawn. The DAWN! I really like to meet the first flashes of the awakening new day. Long before the dawn when you look in the direction of the east you see how the sun informs the world about its arrival. It paints the dark sky with its beams and the last stars disappear. I love to meet the sun, while driving out a road trip in a car. I am amazed by its game and its morning flashes of the sun rays. First, you notice a crimson-red stripe on the horizon. Then, the stripe becomes orange, pink and eventually
