A Limerick About School By Talia Criso

-
I wake up to my alarm blare,
And scramble to find what to wear.
I don't know what to choose,
So I put on my shoes,
I forgot to do my hair.

 I grab my lunch and dip,
Then hop in my sisters whip.
She puts on a song,
That lasts way too long,
It plays the entire road trip.

 Now we've arrived at school,
I'm freezing because its so cool.
I just want a bagel,
But I am not able,
The school store's closed, that's cruel.

 Everyone wants to go home,
My eyes hurt from my chrome.
I pop in an ear bud,
And let my ears flood,
As I listen to Tucker Zone.

 I wonder if my sad fate,
Would change with a bagel plate.
I look for a snack,
The teacher looks back,
He's clueless, the class is playing 2048.

 Now I have to go pee,
So out of the classroom I flee.
I walk down the hall,
To get to the stall,
Shoot I forgot my ID.

 Now its almost 2:24,
This day has been such a bore.
Can't wait to be home,
Watch victorious alone,
I'll be back tomorrow for more.

    I feel like this would be a bomb rap. You should make a music video.

Ancient Greek Heroes VS. Modern Day Heroes

-
Image
Heroes in Greek/Anglo-Saxon (I am grouping the types of historical literature we have read) writing are very obvious and much of ancient Greek literature involves a central hero or a supernatural story. In modern day English, however, the plots are less often mythical and more realistic. Since each person has a different definition for heroism, modern day heroism literature can be more varied. Ancient Greek writing is very often far-fetched, however. There are many similarities and differences between the two types of writing, but first I will run through the most significant differences. In Greek mythology, heroes were often religious figures, like demigods, while modern day writing focuses more on ordinary people. This could be because authors nowadays want the readers to be able to relate with the heroes in their stories. Greek writing had heroes that had the power to protect or destroy the people depending on prevailing circumstances. In contrast, modern day heroes are acknowledg...

My Brother by Elizabeth Hailey DeGasperis

          When I contemplate what is most important in my life, my mind is drawn to my 21-year-old brother, Tom. There are not enough words in the English language I could use to describe what he means to me. I cannot imagine the past fifteen years of my life without him. Allow me to start from the beginning.           Even when I was an infant, he never failed to take me out of my crib, strap me in my high chair, and cook scrambled eggs for us (at the tender age of six). He did this so my mother could catch up on sleep in the mornings and take care of me however he could. I only wish I could return the favour in some way. Though we have always been tight, we used to fight frequently as all siblings do. As immature children, we viewed every ordeal as monumental. The apocalypse would occur if either of us decided to give the other access to the TV remote or the pogo sticks for five minutes. However, we would always make-up in the end and...

Not Fate, Just a Coincidence - Sila Paniker

The idea of fate confuses me. I don't really understand how something will happen no matter what you do. It just seems very unlikely. I think we're constantly making choices that lead to occurrences. We make so many decisions a day that it seems impossible that fate can find a way around it all.  Awhile ago, I saw something called the Butterfly Effect, which doesn't exactly relate to fate but it makes sense to me. The idea is that a butterfly flapping its wings can cause a tornado on the other side of the world. Essentially, small changes can have large impacts. In my head, this connects with the thousands of tiny decisions we subconsciously make each day. There are people I've met or things that have happened and it feels like it was meant to be but they're just a bunch of coincidences that had the ability to change everything. Thinking about it, there are reasons that can explain everything. For example, I met one of my closest friends a few years ago a...
