Robin Williams was a success story to anyone who had ever known him, whether it was through a television screen or in real life. He was well known around the world as the person to bring smiles to faces to everyone around him. It was almost lucky, in this sense, that he always wanted to bring a smile to his mother’s face to let her know how much he loved her. Williams was raised mostly by his maid who had quite the sense of humour, teaching him all of the jokes that got him started. Even if it…

quite hard to do, considering all the obstacles that lay in your way, such as your own and other’s beliefs along with their opinions. No matter what the location is, there are always non-conformists and conformists. This idea does not only occur in real life, but also in books and stories, too. Conformity itself has always been such a big part of our society, from the littlest details, - such as dressing alike or following the same trends -, to the extremes, - such as plastic surgery and so on…

That is what happened to me. I recently read Tartuffe by Moliere, after my first read of the story, I thought it was not relatable, virtually impossible to ever happen, and just not funny. However, after understanding the cultural background, the life experiences of the author, and the author’s purpose for writing these stories, I now see this literary work as a strong satire that is relatable and very well could happen to anyone today. After reading Tartuffe for the first time I was…

very true to me because I am shorter and weigh less than any of my other siblings. It did not make much sense to me until at this time. In addition, later-born siblings are said to live a different life than the earlier-borns. Statistics say the later-born is more likely to live the exhilarating life of an artist or comedian, and adventurer, entrepreneur, GI or firefighter (Kluger 405). I am a very cheerful person compared to all of my siblings. “Too cheerful”, they would all say. I like the…

can either praise your child for every little thing no matter the outcome, or allow your child to learn the best life lessons that can be taught to them by playing sports.

Some parents want to protect their children so much that they do not allow…

It was much like life proving that there is always two sides to the story. August is also very relatable because, he is an ordinary kid with an extraordinary face, whereas I’m an extraordinary kid with an ordinary face. August and Via are both so different. Via is…

Which one should I choose? People always ask this question when they are making a decision. And there are infinite choices on the list in our life, such as should turn left or right when people drive, which college I should go to, choose a career field, or elect a President. Normally, people are likely to choose one that most common, which means the choice that the majority would like to choose. However, “The Road Not Taken” is a popular poem, which is written by Robert Frost who is an…

that one person in our life that has changed us for the better, that person in my life is my coach Jeanna. I began gymnastics when I was 5 years old and Jeanna was my coach from when I started to when I ended at age 17. During those 12 years she taught me so many things that helped during my gymnastics career and things that will help me in the future. Without my coach I would be nowhere near the person I am today and I am very thankful that I have gotten to spend most of my life with such an…

My favorite novel is Night Road by Kristin Hannah. It gives many different emotions that aren’t expected. When I read a book, I don’t usually get emotionally attached, but with this book I really did. It’s influenced how I look at life. There’s many events in the book that are very realistic and can actually happen to anyone. Also I can relate to my favorite character, Mia. Night Road is my favorite novel because there’s many twist and turns of emotions, it gives me a different sense of reality,…
