One Rainy Sunday Rainy days have a set vibe based on the day of the week. Rainy Mondays are exhausting, rainy Tuesdays are monotonous, and rainy Wednesdays are relieving. But rainy Sundays are perhaps the strangest of them all, a simultaneous state of serenity and sorrow. And this rainy Sunday was no different. It had only been a short while after we had moved to Round Rock from Dallas, and it felt like an eternity and a short second all at once. As familiar I felt with my friends’ faces, I…

this, Wiesel uses outrageous imagery to describe an unfortunate boy. The well likes Oberkapo(leader) of the 51st unit and his pipel(child servant).

Social media in the workplace has been controversial for a while. There are different sides, the good and the bad. The cons involve problems with the law and bans. Like the case of a man working at a health care place and getting fired after posting a threat. He said that he was only venting about the patient (Horowitz, 2014).

Fortunato has done the unthinkable “The thousand injuries of Fortunato I had borne as I best could, but when he ventured upon insult, I vowed revenge.” (Poe 536) Revenge is the only drink that will quench Montresor’s…

Comparative Eschatology of Christianity and World Mythologies When dealing with the idea of eschatology, many common views come from break-offs of the Abrahamic religions, with the most commonly known revolving around Jesus’ second-coming, the Rapture, and the Armageddon, the fight between the Antichrist and Jesus. While this view seems to be the most developed view of the end of the world, many religions prior to modern times also had some stories or ideas that explained how the end of the…

A wild man was created for Gilgamesh. He was called Enkidu and the king quickly found solace and company in him. When Enkidu dies, Gilgamesh realizes that he too, is mortal. He goes on a quest for everlasting life and learns that he can not complete every task he sets for himself. The lessons he learns from these adventures should make him a better king. Whether he becomes better, is up for discussion. In history, tyrants are usually overthrown, killed, or both. Gilgamesh was lucky he was not…

came to a halt and Pat clenched both fists, raised them above his head, and stood up. Then he sat back down and rode off into the daylight. And just like that the era of Pat Burrell was over. In retrospect, I’m glad they put him first, because the deluge that erupted from my tear ducts as I watched him pull away was better to get over with first. My heart felt so full and empty at the same time. As always, the Phanatic was sent in right after to lighten the mood. The time to be sad was over…
