The Ugly Tie
Number of words: 258 - Number of pages: 1.... polyester fabric gleams with a lust of
shiny plastic coating. The tie is milky colored all around and at the
center a cherry colored circle. However, as creative as it may seem, the
tie is indifferent to any color other than ivory or ebony. Thus, a snow-

pilgrimage known as the Ban-Yatra. It tells a slightly more true to life

Carpe Diem: The Golden Chance
Number of words: 530 - Number of pages: 2.... come United States
to study is very limited for Spanish students. It is limited because even
when the country is not a third world country, Spain is a country not very
rich, and for a person like my it would be not very intelligent to reject
this great chance. Here I am trying to learn as much as possible about
American life style, culture, language and people. My chance was supposed
to expire in one year but now I have the opportunity to not only finish
high school in United States, but also continue my college years here.
My Carpe Diem tells me that I can not waste my time, because I hav .....

Carvers Realism From Fires
Number of words: 1170 - Number of pages: 5.... for some likeness. But is this truly where the characters come from? Are they just a reflection of Carver and his life?

In many ways, Carvers life was the model for all of his characters. Married to Maryann Burke at nineteen, and having two children in the space of seventeen months, the Carvers life was decided for years to come. Early on Carver felt, along with his .....

Cultivating your virtue."4

St. Benidict And Fear Of The L
Number of words: 506 - Number of pages: 2.... Obedience and Humility. Obedience being the first grade of humility, the part that we are interested in is the part of “if you don’t obey then you should burn in hell…” for someone today this excerpt, I feel, wouldn’t affect them as much as if did back then. Some main reasons for this being, the fall of the Roman Empire, people were sick and tired of being pushed around by tyrants and idiot kings; they were ready for a change. But this change was only going to come around if they obey fully to what this new god had to say.
The Humility, well now that jus .....

Number of words: 593 - Number of pages: 3.... come
to Him. God weighs the practicality of each prayer, always keeping in mind His
master plan for each person's life. He carefully considers these prayers in

either directly or through other people. Very often, His answers are not all
one would expect. In fact, His reply may be the exact opposite of what most
would think to be best.
Many times people pray to God for something that is not immediately
received. Due to this fact, .....

Red Badge Of Courage 5
Number of words: 750 - Number of pages: 3.... Through time Henry started to think about the battles in a different way, a more experienced way, he started to become afraid that he might run from battle when duty calls. He felt like a slave, doing whatever his superiors told him.

The regiment managed to hold off the rebels for the first charge, but then the rebels came back like men of steel with re-enforcements, driving the regiment back. One man started to flee, the .....
