After A Fall When I Will Take Over: Analysis
''After a fall when I will take over. All life will stall or at least grow slower? What am I?''

Inside a beautiful garden that was adorned in flowers and birthday decorations, three young girls were sitting before an ornate table. Each leisurely drinking tea and riddling each other. Despite being underage, each of the three budding flowers were about to bloom into wonderful women in a couple of years.

Each of these girls were more beautiful and delicate than the other, and they were clearly different from the common rabble. Each of them no doubt came from a influential family, and wore clothes to match their status...and the colors of their hair. A young miss who sported a wavy, brunette hair which ended in curls, was playing with said curls

By making a statement that he would be sentenced into a twelve years of labor would either be true or false depending on the judge, but it wouldn't matter. If the statement was false it would mean that the judge was sentencing the man for six years of labor. If he was sentenced to work for six year it would in turn make man's sentence false. Meaning judge would need to punish the man by sentencing him for twelve years, in turn making his statement absolutely true. This kind of conundrum forces the judge to either: Not care about his own face, and sentence the man to twelve years anyway making him a filthy liar and risking his body to become nesting place for a heart devil. Or he could just let the man go free. In the most likely scenario Judge would refuse to go against his own word and would simply let the man go free. Mortal men who are put into powerful positions are all full of pride and fear, meaning they would never take a chance to go against their own word. I hope this clarifies my answer.'' Ophelia finally smirked.

''Alternatively the man could have told the judge 'I am a Houtian.' If the man was really a Houtian expert he could just kill the judge, and no one would have been able to do a damn thing about it. Personally, I like the Houtian answer better.'' All the girls giggled at Ophelia's alternative solution. Answer like that was

However some women also trained in more physical arts and knew many finger, palm and kick techniques but it was hardly ever a true focus for them. But Ophelia had always shown to be hard worker in both spiritual and physical cultivation and it showed in her outer appearance.

Ophelia, now at 13 years of age stood a magnificent 5.7 feet tall and her body was nicely toned. Her muscles at right places were completely visible unlike that of a girls who did no such training. Thanks to her olive skin, black hair and her height she was going to be a beauty when she fully matured.

Ophelia finished her stretches and waved her cousins goodbye. It was time for her daily training routine. She would freely run around at her family's lands. Drakern family was one of the wealthiest families in the kingdom of Mideen and they were known for their mighty warriors and martial experts who would follow the path of martial arts in hope for wealth, power and eternal life it promised.

Not only did Drakern family possess vast fields of farmland and dozens of rich mines, they were also rulers of a Golden-ridge City. A second largest city in the whole Mideen kingdom and the trade capital of the whole nation. Golden-ridge City only lost in size to the capital of Mideen,

    This made them seem even more obscure. The normal social environment of the store in this quaint town is “women with six children and varicose veins mapping their legs” (2). Also,“A few house slaves in pin curlers” who saw the girls did a double take and had to check again to see if what the saw was correct. The girls drew a lot of attention to themselves because these people are so used to everything being the same and conformed. This is another reason why these girls looked like a circus act walking into the A & P. Since they really did not fit in with how the store worked or how it looked, they were dehumanized. An example is while the girls were going through the aisles the “sheep” pushed their carts down the way they always do and the girls walked against the “usual traffic”. This goes to show the girls were going against or rebelling against the normal society just like they did wearing swimming suits instead of more appropriate clothes. All these actions really brought attention to them and made them the main event at the store. Their actions was very disapproved because this grocery store represents conformity. They call the lady’s “sheep” because sheep are herd animals and are all the same; they are dehumanized into animals with no individuality. So when these three girls come in with an individuality and personality no one likes it because they are not the…

    She would break away from the way her father and brother saw her, as a “bride of God. A novice Carmelite,” just enough to speak her mind (Merchant, Ophelia, 1-2). Ophelia wanted nothing more than to be “a sweet heart to the nation” with “curvaceous thoighs” and “vivacious eyes.” (Merchant, Ophelia, 9-12). The men and corruption in her life led her to be “a cyclone,” “a goddamned hurricane,” as she “lay wasted and in vain,” that is, until she released herself; her mind “went wondering…all alone” (Merchant, Ophelia,…

    Beauty, written by Jane Martin in the mid nineteen hundreds, is an ironic play about two successful women, Bethany and Carla. Both women were the same age yet complete opposites. They also had completely different personalities and were unhappy with their lives. Martin casted and characterized them this way to illustrate a few themes. The drama was mainly centered on the theme that no one is ever happy unless they get their wishes granted. However, in these two women’s cases, getting what they wanted caused them to realize there is nothing wrong with being different. These two themes can be seen through the two character’s success, jealousy, and a genie.…

    The setting Sammy finds himself in on this particular day contrasts the per usual normalcy at the A&P. His beginning description defines the uniqueness of the occasion “In walks these three girls in nothing but bathing suits” (187). Sammy’s intricate and itemized description of the three girls gives us the first insight into his mindset, and the irony of the artificial environment converse to the natural state of the girl’s attire. At this point, Sammy has directed much attention toward the girls. His focus on the girls sets the stage for itemizing his priorities “I stood there with my hand on a box of HiHo crackers trying to remember if I rang it up or not” (187). His ever-glazed and intricate attention toward the girls births assessments and descriptions itemizing their…

    Shakespeare states it thus through his character Polonius, “Affection, puh, you speak like a green girl / Unsifted in such perilous circumstance”(1.2.101). Her sheltered life filled with grandeur thoughts of love and days spent picking flowers developed within her a frailty that is exposed, not only physically, but mentally through her actions and words in Hamlet, but also through the artwork. Her skin is illustrated as smooth and pure white, indicating the absence of harsh living and a naivety. Ophelia’s face in all the artists renderings, except Ewerbeck’s, is shown as peaceful and wistful but resigned with remorse. Her worry free brow and her alabaster skin shows no blemish from the sun in each of the paintings, while John William Waterhouse’s representation exposes her mind and soul through her eyes as if they are pools of sorrow. All of the artists agree on her status by clothing her in elaborate dresses befitting her. Carlos Ewebeck’s painting stands apart from the others by portraying her with her head turned away and unclothed as if in shame. Her unadorned nakedness shows her virginity, vulnerability and great…

    She was 20 years old, petite, her slim five foot frame adorned with a light pink sundress that rested right above the knee, a ribbon in her hair to match. The scent of lavender never left her. He imagined running his fingers through the Hershey chocolate curls that spiraled down to her chin; touching her lips, two pink rose petals, resting, on a peaches and crème complexion; good enough to eat.…

    For instance, we how drastically the two younger women contrast their mothers. Barbra, Mrs. Ansley’s daughter isn’t as exquisite as her mother and father once were yet everyone around her is attracted to her outgoing personality and zest for life. Mrs. Slade’s daughter, unlike her mother is an extremely pretty girl who has a bubbly and innocent personality. As the story continues to unfold we learn the young women contrast one another just as their mothers did when they were the same age, however we also come to find that deep down each mothers heart yearned for a daughter that never came. For example, Mrs. Ansley wanted a physically beautiful daughter, instead she had a very intelligent daughter with a wonderful personality. Mrs. Slade wanted a very intelligent daughter with a great personality yet her daughter is physically beautiful and lacks the intelligence and articulation of her mother. The following points I feel are key depictions related to the unspoken competitiveness and jealousy that finally surfaces during the story’s climax as we learn more in regard to mother’s twenty five year relationship…

    The main character, Mattie Ross is a figure of nobility--consistently questioning the marshal and his seemingly harsh methods. Though, rather than wearing warm, brightly colored dresses with complex patterns to perhaps suggest spiritual wealth, she is almost always wearing a head-to-toe austere collared dress that is almost disheartening in its blandness. Her hair does not flow lusciously down her back but rather it is always braided, and hangs lifelessly on either shoulder. Whereas her attire does in fact give the viewer the sense that she has an acute moral compass, as well as a “proper” way of…

    The diction in this poems fits in with the identity of the persona. The poet uses “cool” (1.6) and “gangsters” (1.10) to fit in with the language used by teenagers and to create the persona the speaker wishes to show.. She also mimics their speech pattern, like “Syn/co/pa/ted” (1.4) which shows the beat teenagers talk in. “Strut and slide” impersonates how they walk, showing how arrogant these teenagers are. The appearance of the sixteen-year-old girls is reveal by the vivid description of the “nylons sassy black heels” (1.12) and “two inch zippered boots” (1.13). The poet uses the simile “paint our eyes like gangsters” to express how adolescent girls put on heavy make up so that they would be unidentifiable. “Never to be mistaken for white” conveys the idea how the wish to be seen as something they are not, something they…

    Between me and the athletes there were several more tables, all filled with energetic dancers, thoughtful theater kids, and noisy band members with their instrument cases spread over the table along with the peanut butter sandwiches and bags of carrot sticks. I didn’t feel like I matched any of these groups. At my old school, I was friends with everyone, and we didn’t have to share a hobby in order to have plenty in common. It seemed as though all of these groups shared one specific thing with each other, which I didn’t share with any of them. One day, I noticed someone else sitting like me: quiet and alone in the shade of one of the courtyard’s big pine trees. She was small and brown-haired, reading a book while she munched on an apple she had pulled out of the crumpled paper lunch sack that sat on the ground next to her. Strangely, this girl seemed perfectly happy to sit by herself, and I guessed that was the reason she hadn’t introduced herself to me or asked me to sit with her.
