Being Bad To The Bone

In earlier years of my life till the present I have almost every day have been mean to someone. If I am in a bad mood I'll react on someone in a way i thought was nothing. I have been acusing my dad about things i have know ideal what is really going on thru his head or his life. We'd argue about the most stupid things, about money, girls, and even stupid science fiction. I would hide things from him and be agressive towards him. The reason someone acts mean upon a person is to test their ability to respond to what they want to hear. When someone is mean or ignorant towards someone for no reason or not meaning to its not as bad as when that person tells you its all about responds. My girlfriend and I have been argueing for quite a while now and she is no longer that title not because i choosed but she has. She told me i have been neglecting her and being mean i had no clue i was so oblivous to all she has done, and yet how i have been mean to her she has reacted in the same way but with uncaring anger. This is to show me how i have been treating her but this is done on propose to show me a lesson. To be angry at someone is ok if the have treated you with disrespect. One law of life i have learned and have engraved to my brain is never be mean unless theres a reason especialy if its to the one you love.

Is this B.S or Not

I have been currently working at Best Buy in Deptford as a cashier. I started just a little before black Friday. I love working there my job is awesome and my co-workers are great. But just three weeks ago I was working my regular 1-8 shift and a group of kids came to the store and I as always welcome them to our store. The day was fine and quickly flying by. Just two hours till I'm on my way home, and my manger calls me over and said to me, "We just had a call about you from a customer." Not knowing what to think I replied "About what?" He said with a deep tone "A group of younger aged adults came to the store and said that you called them an inappropriate name... A fag? Is this true?" Confused I said, “I had never said such words from my mouth and as a matter of fact I never had a group of youngsters come to my register." He said "O.K. Well as long as you are telling the truth nothing will happen." Dismissed from the little meeting I realized that the group of kids who had called the store might have been the kids that have given me the middle finger, I was just finishing up with my customer and they group of kids caught my eye. As my customer left my register watched them walk past the other registers and then the girl in the front gave me the finger. I watch them pass by to make sure they didn't try to walk out of the store without paying for it. Now I had work yesterday and my I called the active manger on duty and he said I have work today but I no longer work from them. I panicked, asked why, and received the reason and question to prove it. He said I would have to wait till Friday to get the final decision.

Invasion

In Shakespeare's Hamlet, Hamlet kills his ex-girlfriends father as he was spying on him and his mom. Hamlet's attention was to kill Claudius not him. Polonius invaded Hamlets space by reading his love note, which every one reads their children's texts or notes. It is OK to go through your children's texts only if your suspicious of their activities. Depending of the time of this action is a big factor. If you do it out of spite or randomness it is wrong. I would only check through my children's personal items if i was worried they could possible be injured or in trouble. To check through others things is ok only if you know when too.

Torture or Death

In Shakespeare's time torture was the answer to all the crimes either to death or to scare. The tortures they used were worst in most possible ways. They hung, decapitated, stretched, split open while alive, and many more. In our world now we only execute the criminals that have had a second chance. I believe in the eye for an eye system.

The Hood

Magnolia, New Jersey
"Born and raised in front of my house is where i spent most of my days".

When i close my eyes and think of home I see my self with my family on a summer day, with my brother and sister suspended in a tree filled in laughter, while my mom and dad lounge in their lawn chairs with out a care in the world, as I watch over them from a far. I already feel as I guard their lives and would do anything for them as they have all watched over me. If it came down to the point where i had to defend my country or home I would do everything i could to defend theses people i call family and the ones I call neighbors. I will risk my own life for anyone whose willing to do their best in life as I should of done. A lot has changed since the times i remember, since the economy is bad and my mother has lost her job but there is not such a place as home I will always have love for the place I call home.

Aeolus's Tribute

Thie topic: Describe Odysseus' encounter with Aeolus and the situation leading up to the accident involving Aeolus's bag of wind. Who is to blame for the accident -Odysseus or his men? Explain.
Aeolus's tribute to Odysseus was a bag full of western winds, which he tells Odysseus to release the winds at a certian spot to bring the winds back to normal. As Odysseus brings the bag onto the ship he falls in to a slumber leaving the bag unprotected of weiry eyes. The men on the ship believe Odysseus is hiding gold from the crew so they become curious. One of Odysseus's men try to stop the others from opening the bag but its too late and the one whom opened the bag sores through the sky. While the ship is being thrown off course Odysseus awakens to find them in a totally different area...Odysseus and his men deserve the blame for the accident, Odysseus should have never left the bag unprotected and paid closes attention to his gift. The men should of never went through his bag but asked Odysseus whats inside the bag. If this was played out then the adventure would be over. Now the winds are misplaced and Odysseus finds a new himself in another adventure. Odysseus and his men are to blame due to there actions all lead to the conclusion. Odysseus needs to realize his mens loyatie isn't what is it seems.
