Personal Writing: An-Yang
.... mouth watered
in anticipation of the savories to come.
One particular afternoon, after we had finished eating, we draped ourselves
around her living room. I was sitting on a dilapidated couch, whose colors
were made indiscernible by time, and was looking around her room. My gaze
swept from the thin, worn carpet, bare in some places, to the scarred
wooden dresser, to a dirty doll with an eye missing. (My grandmother could
never bear to throw anything away). She came and sat down next to me,
taking my ha .....

Creative Writing: Apocalypse At The Nuclear Plant
.... across his face.
Jarvis lead Pete over to the main testing area. "We discovered
this late last night. Seems one of the plutonium pieces is…," he paused
with a gulp, "changing."
"Changing?!?!"
"You better believe it because it took me an hour to comprehend
what is going on."
"What exactly IS going on?"
Jarvis explained in his own special slightly whiny voice that he
chose to break out only in large meetings but decided to give Pete the
thrill of hearing now. One of the experimental pieces of plutoni .....

The "Around The World" Party At College
.... I immediately knew it was in the corner because
of the crowd surrounding it. Once I reached the keg, I found myself
waiting once again for my beer. The person who was filling up the cups was
not filling them first come first serve. He would fill the cups of his
friends first, then the girls, and then if he had to fill up his own cup he
would. While doing this he was talking his friend whose job it was to
pump the keg when needed. People were sticking their cups in front of the
tap as if they were fig .....

Personal Writing: A Schoolyard Lesson
.... and down the hall to room 212, where I sat down in the front
row. I turned around and took a quick peak at the class; scanning the room
for someone to talk to. When I saw no opportunities I began to get a bit
timid, but as soon as the bell rang I felt all right.
We went through the motions for awhile: filling out paper work,
introducing ourselves, all the first day stuff. I heard a few kids say
they were new to the area, of which Brian Vedder was the only boy. He
wasn't much to look at, not a so .....

Personal Writing: What I Learned This Semester In English Class
.... I now
realize only does deserve a "C." Now I have to take my writing more
seriously, and try much harder at producing good output. Also, my goal
isn't to write a paper that will get a good grade. Now, my goal is to
write better papers. I write to become a better writer.
That is, I feel, a very important thing that I learned this semester. I
don't think, "O.K., I have to get at least a B on this paper." Instead, I
think, "O.K., I have to use this assignment to improve my work." This is a
much better .....

Creative Writing: A Sunday
.... called girl. Naughty naughty girls wetting themselves
and pinching. Quiet good girls slumped in the seats in the garden with
their mouths open. Waiting for it. Drinking in death.
Her voice shakes when she asks for two sections. She wants it far too much.
Practised that too in her head over and over in the nights. Listening to
them in the corridors. If Mary shits herself again tonight she can sleep in
it. Listening to the cries and the calling, I have to get home. I have to,
the children want their di .....

prospective on people and their lives.
Guiding the new information and technology of today, computers
serve as the most useful tool for teaching and productivity across the
globe. With the aid of computers, new and better systems are manufactured
and put to work constantly. The amount of data storage, speed, and
processing power is increasing exponentially, and the obsolete models are
taken off shelves and out of business to be r .....

My Trip To The Philippines
.... why he was there. After my father solved the problem for me. We were
all laughing about it.
My father said, "In the Philippines, eating with hands are their culture,
you will never see this in Taiwan." In Taiwan, everybody use chopsticks to
eat. Nobody will use spoon and folk to eat, because that's a kind of hard.
Just like my first time used the spoon and folk. I doesn't know either to
use my left hand to hold spoon or use my right hand.
People have longer weekend than Taiwan. Both Sunday and Saturda .....

Personal Writing: Bad Teacher
.... I was younger, I had a teacher named HAIBUS who was really mean to me.
She was my fourth grade teacher. During that year with her, I got hurt a
lot from falling on the playground; as a result, I often went to the
nurse's office. After going there a couple of times, over a two-week period,
she told me that I couldn't go anymore, but I sneaked passed her and went
anyway. A week later, I got hurt again, so I snuck past her again even
though she had told me not to go. That afternoon, she insulted me in fro .....

Following this wall is a second light switch for the closet. The
closet has no doors on it, but is full of clothes. After the closet comes

Heilner's "Beneath The Wheel" And Me
.... the end of the lunch period had
just rung, and I was heading out for Ms. Henyon's math class. I saw up
ahead of me, Chris frantically flipping through his Algebraic Concepts text
book. I approached Chris and asked: "Did we have any homework we were
supposed to do?"
"All we had to do was study for the test today," Chris replied.
As usual, I had forgotten another quiz; either that I had chosen to neglect
it. Whichever it was, I never study for tests and quizzes. "Yeah, I've
been studying for it al .....
