Swoosh!I opened the door to my house. As I walked in my house the smell of turkey drifted through the air, I realized that it was Thanksgiving. Something had happened the year before that made me hate Thanksgiving, like Wrecking ball by Miley. It involved turkey, hunting, and my friend Bobby. It was terrifying like skydiving without a parachute it's fun going down until you realize that you don’t have the parachute, but at the end it was pretty fun. Ok so it all started when I got out of…

Every Christmas Eve our family gathers around the coffee table in our apartment in New York City. During the day we go to see the tree at Rockefeller Center and buy chocolate candies from the Greenwood Pastry on the corner. Uncle Riley leads the way as we walk the streets until the light begins to fade between the office towers and the crippled gargoyles forever perched on the corners of the buildings that illuminate a golden age gone by. We laugh together and reminisce about the previous…

Paragraph 1-Song-Let it Snow The reason I picked this song is pretty self explanatory. I picked this song because in the beginning of the book when Percy’s Mom is driving them it is snowing. The snow and sleet “Pounds down on the road”. This song let it snow fits perfectly for the scene when it is snowing. The reason is in the song it says, “Let it snow” and while they are in the car they want it to keep snowing because they like snow. This is the reason for this song. Paragraph 2-Song-I…

Upon my arrival at Disneyland the sweet aroma of ice cream filled the air making me feel bubbly inside. I was scattered around with thousands of other joyous children relishing the prospect of the overwhelming rides. My heart paced faster with every step I took. At every corner, I would notice a familiar looking face. Mickey Mouse on my right ,Buzz lightyear on my left Tinkerbell ahead of me. I could not believe it! I felt like I was living in a fantasy. Exhilarated, I walked towards the…

but that sacrificed their greatest and most valuable treasure. Jim sold his watch for hair combs while; Della sold her luscious hair for a watch fob as a Christmas present for Jim. I think it was fine that they spent that much money on one present for love. A reason it was fine spending that much money is because it was Christmas.

meant sledding with the other kids in the neighborhood while lights light up the inside of brightly-painted houses. He, a stranger now, tiptoes through dead silence and boarded up windows, trying to see from the light of flickering streetlamps. No Christmas decorations hung, no wreaths guarded welcoming doors. He tried to remember the amazement that…

The dumb brother After a long day at boxing practice, I was exhausted because it was a training day. Were in late December snow is falling and Christmas is around the corner.I packed my bags and got ready to go but I didn't see my dad there. Usually, after practice my dad comes to pick me up most of the time. If he wasn't able to come he always gave me a future notice when he dropped me off. This was the first time this had ever happened so I wasn't mad even though I could barely stand. I gave…

“Richter's paintings, one might say, are timely only insofar as they are untimely” (Osbourne 110). This quotes perfectly exemplifies the meaning of artist Gerhard Richard work. The Art Gallery of Ontario possess Gerhard Richter’s painting Helga Matura as a gift from the volunteer committee fund in 1986, though the piece was painted twenty years earlier in 1966 (“Helga Matura”). In the AGO’s Philip B. Lind Gallery Helga Matura is on display for the public to see. Gerhard Richter painted many…
