Criminal Court Room
1,331 wordsA Day In Criminal Court This week I had the opportunity to sit in on criminal court proceedings. I chose to visit the White Plains Court House for the day and noticed quite a few things through out the whole experience.

Great Depression Thought Carissa
910 wordsA NEW PAGE by P. RingonIt's been two weeks, and I haven't made any real friends. It's just that, I feel as if no one likes me. Sure, I've talked to a few people, like Jessica and this really hot guy Chase, but I'm starting to feel lonely again.

Well, whatever, I'm way too tired to keep on writing so, let's just hope tomorrow will be at least a little different from the...

Three Car Dealerships

The first dealership that I visited was Westboro Auto Exchange, which is a small used car dealership that sells a variety of cars. The second dealership that I visited was Duddie Ford, which is a large dealership that sells mostly new midrange priced American cars and trucks. The third dealership that I visited was Foreign Motor West, which is an average size dealership that specializes in selling BMWs. Upon arri...

Lingering Feeling The Mountains
1,866 wordsMy definition of home is not a word I can say or a thought I can think, but a feeling. This feeling is like a calm that settles over me like a blanket, just a quiet assurance telling me I belong in that place. It took me forever to understand where exactly that place was, and the answer was always right in front of me. This feeling would come and go, and I would never recognize it because I knew that only my address and the house that I parked my car at and went in to eat and sleep for 18 years ...

Ticket To The Neil Young Concert
1,317 wordsNeil Young in Halifax I was getting ready for school one morning when my father said that my cousin Jennifer was on the phone and she wanted to know if I wanted a ticket to the Neil Young concert coming up in Halifax.

It was Halloween night and I was listening to an old Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young album when I looked at the release date when I realized that in a mere five days I was going to witness a legend in his finest form. Some say the Neil You...

Jar Of Herring Snacks For My Mother
847 wordsI walked into the A&P Market to "pick up a jar of herring snacks for my mother" (A&P 116). I walked in the store with my two girlfriends, whom I'm always with. I was wearing my "beige bathing suit" (A&P 114) because it was such a nice day outside. As I walked in I noticed a young man who seemed to be staring at me, but I didn't pay much attention too. I walked tall through the A&P that day, just like I always do. I felt the straps on my bathing suit had "slipped down and where off my shoulders" ...

Let's Play With Herbie
944 wordsThe Scourge Of The Galaxy The pretty researcher walked up to the shack where he supposedly lived. Wendy had heard many stories about the scourge, but she had never seen him for herself. He was a local legend, and she had decided to do her thesis on this obese male. She knocked on the cheap wood door of the shanty, and the door fell off. Wendy anxiously tried to pick the door up, but before she could pick it up, a high-pitched bark came from the dark corridor of the hut. "It's alright, girlie. Ju...

Poor Elephant Being
752 wordsFinally, after what seemed like a year in the car, we were there. I was ready to get out and see this Circus Museum that my mom had always talked about. We spent another day making the great trek from our car to the entrance. I looked up at the old man selling tickets, but it was not an old man, it was a clown! This place may have some promise after all. The gate opened and I walked through. I could smell the musk of the animals, the sweetness of the cotton candy, and the salty aroma of the popc...

Stay With Jaden

It was Jaden, my best friend. He was completely surrounded by the bright orange flames. "Jaden are you all right"Yeah, but the fire ...

Lycos And Excite
458 wordsWeb Portals When the term "internet" became a household saying, such did words like Excite, Yahoo, and Lycos. These were the so-called portals that directed Internet first-timers to their destinations and virtually walked them through the World Wide Web. They were and still are the fist place visitors go when they start to "surf" the web. Yet these portals are not just your average search engines, they have a lot more to offer like directories, chat rooms, mail, multimedia, online communities, a...

Photo Looks
1,033 wordsUpon examination of a photograph by Walker Evans and one by Jewel Stern, the viewer can easily see how the photographers use ordinary scenes to display the continuity and monotony of everyday life and the insignificance of the "little people."Building Facade", a 6 3/4 " x 8 1/2 " gelatin silver print by Walker Evans, taken in 1934, is a black and white photo of what appears at first glance to be just a picture of a building with some people in front of it going about their everyday business. The...

My Parents
567 words"You will find, as you look back upon your life, that the moments that stand out are the moments when you have done things for others". Henry Drummond. I bet when my parents look back, they have a lot of moments that stand out because of all the sacrifices they made for me. Perhaps they thought it was great to watch their precious baby grow and learn and develop. But look at all the sleep they lost when I cried all night long. I was almost a year old before I started sleeping through the night. ...

People In The Way
1,125 wordsThe first person I observed was at the park. Actually it was two people. It seemed to be a young couple and they had a child. They looked to be about 19 or 20. My first impression is that here we have two people who messed up in life, had a child, and are starting their life in debt. The more I watched them I felt kind of angry. Why wasn't one of them working at least, but then I thought that maybe they were taking a break from this world and getting away together as a family for just a brief mo...

Natural Talent
462 wordsOn a sweltering, blistery Saturday afternoon, I squint my eyes as I take my stance in the batter's box and gaze out into the field in front of me. Second base is joking around with the umpire in the field amongst jeers from the shortstop of, "You ain't got nuthin', batter", while center field repeatedly pounds a fist in his glove as if he just can't wait to get some action. I grin, all the while thinking of how I would just like to make someone eat a nice, hard hit. Each of these personal traits...
