Creative Writing: Mayor Of Casterbridge
.... of that ever happening. Though he had his faults,
Henchard was strong-minded when he decided to be.
At the next several doors, Henchard was very stubborn. When he would at
first be refused, he would insist upon a chance to prove his worthiness by
performing some task for the shopkeeper. Most simply refused, but at some
places it got him in the door to speak as best he could on his own behalf. It
was near the end of the street that one shopkeeper agreed to take on Henchard's
services, but only .....

talk to them. That was it. I was getting paid $150 just to teach a group of
handicapped kids. I sat down next to the story teller, Bob, and I looked around
and carefully observed them. As I did this, I could see Lennie's face flashing
in my mind. What was happening to me. Why couldn't he just leave me alone. I
survived through my first day of work, reluctantly. The hospital also provided
housing. That night, I had the most horrible dream of my life. I could see

My Job At E-Dak

For me E-Dak has meant working at the fourth fastest growing company in Silicon
Valley, with $500 thousand of revenue exploding to over $60 million in four
short years. It has also meant playing a role in the information revolution.
E-Dak gives me a broad business perspective. It's relatively small size
facilitates a close interaction with department heads. If had I stayed in
public accounting or gone to a larger corporation, I would not have e .....

his patient, he might not have accidentally killed him.
Everyone was dead when the police got to the Island. Nobody could figure out
what happened. The police did not find any suicide notes and searched the
island a couple of times. The police found no-one in hiding and were left open-
mouthed and clueless.
Fred Narracott was the boatman who took everyone to the island on his boat. As
he told the police, as far as he knew he was the on .....

tall twenty-foot appletree. After contemplating on this strange doing, he
decided not to let it bother him. After seeing Knob approach her house, Knob's
grandmother whistled for the hummingbird to bring her down so she could greet
him. She greeted him with a loud burp which was a common courtesy among
Gnomanians. After greeting him she also sprinkled him with some of her fairy
dust. She handily carried it around in her turban. She naturally invited him

Creative Writing: A Medical Experience

which, of course, the mother refused to do, stating that it wasn't necessary.
The daughter then took it upon herself to call EMS from her own house.
The medics were notified of the problem through the usual method, a
series of tones over a radio that cause a loud horn to blare and all the station
lights to come on, much to the annoyance of the fire lieutenant. This alarm was
immediately followed by the dispatchers voice giving all the applicable
information on th .....

materials, competition fees as well as for personal expenses required for
traveling outside the province for competitions. Fund-raising was both stressful
and difficult due to the fact that corporate sponsors had limited resources and
could not finance to the extent that had been previously predicted. As time
progressed, the situation worsened simply because the district school board
received financial cuts due to the reduced provincial budget. The problem of

would have been Kyle working that shift maybe things would be different. Kyle
was a loner, and a struggling loner at that. "Good morning Kyle," said Joel.
"G' mornin'," mumbled Kyle in a saddened voice. Joel instantly sensed
that something was wrong and upon further questioning found that Kyle had lost
yet another one of his “bimbo” type girlfriends. Joel pretended to be sorry for
him for a while, then they spoke of work.
Kyle never really envied Joel's .....

they know it may melt away, like their past. The snowmen are created as if God
had sprinkled a little of his miracle in each of their tiny hands. Snowballs
are thrown playfully by young boys, showing their “masculinity” to the girls who
giggle at their “immiturity.” No one notices the shadow. She walks through,
smiling to herself at the past she barely can recall. The angelic music of her
past plays to herself. She wonders if the children themselves can hear the
songs of th .....

don't have a phone or the other stuff did you?!" Gwen yelled. "Um, well kinda
yeah, why?" Tim questioned. " Why?" she yelled and stormed off. Gwen was the
type of girl who didn't care what people thought of her, but she didn't like it
when people would find out that she was poor. She had blonde hair, and was very
thin. She wore sequined pants, and these funny looking shirts most of the time,

King Syphilis was quite mad. Nobody talked back to him and go away with

guy," ordered the king.
"I'm sorry, my good King Syphilis," replied another servant. "Since you
deported all the nuclear engineers to the powder mines, we have been unable to

Now the king was really mad. "I'm really mad!" said the king. "Bring .....

She worked so hard to get stuff done while he needed very little time if any at
all. She was the captain of the soccer and basketball teams while, if his knee

The two friends chatted their way to school. She talked about her sports
games and practices and how much homework she had while he talked about the TV
shows he had watched.
When they got to school they said the .....
