Personal Writing: Living In Both Texas And New York City
Number of words: 1211 - Number of pages: 5.... of New York City are too busy with their own
affairs and does have time to care of what's going on in their surroundings.
The citizens of New York City would care less about the traffic safety and
reading the traffic signs. The smell of the city reminds me of the honey
roasted peanut stands, a sweet scent of aroma that would often fill up the
neighborhood. When I close my eyes and think deeply about NYC, there has
been a chime in my head of the messengers blowing their whistles to fight
in the traffic while slicing left and right to get to their destination.

How Can We Tell What Is Good Or Bad?
Number of words: 577 - Number of pages: 3.... This is a true example of how people today in our society live their
dreams through celebrities. People idolize immoral sport stars instead of
holding in a higher regard common everyday people, who are God fearing, hard
working, and ethically moral.
While in this society it is hard to tell what is true, it is also hard
when compared with other societies. For example, some European countries have
legalized the use of mild drugs. These countries have attributed this toward
less crime. Putting the question of right or wrong on the individual rather
than, in our case, the govern .....

Love In Today's Society
Number of words: 1383 - Number of pages: 6.... My goal is to show how love has changed. I hope to show what is accepted
in our society today, compared with only several decades ago.
Application
My sources run the gamut of ideas in the subject of love. I think
Auden's poem is the best representation of what has been termed “courtly love.”

satisfied just being in the same room as she. Ther .....

reaction of Mr. Park's mother.
The problem of dangerous driving as viewed from a theoretical standpoint

society that causes individuals to conform to social laws. A social control
theorist would argue that it is social pressures that prevent people from acting
out in deviant manners; otherwise people would act .....

In most situations the person's life being exposed would feel he is being
treated unfairly. However, by not reporting such information could elude
the voters knowledge of the presidential candidate. A journalist is
required to report, it is there job.
When making implications about any person, the facts must be known
without a doubt. The uselessness of hearsay information or a animus tip
does no good on the creditability of the news. If there is potential
situation developing, it would be a good idea for a journalist to watch and

Number of words: 921 - Number of pages: 4.... numbers, "Delos, a major trade center, could handle 10,000 slaves a day in its market" (Spielvogal 118).

Then there are those cases of horrendous treatment towards slaves, torture, abuse, hard labor. These treatments drove several slaves to runaway and even revolt and kill their masters. "Slaves were branded, beaten, fed inadequately, worked in chains, and housed at night in underground prisons. It took three years to crush a revolt .....
