He wanted us to go with him so he can meet this girl. She told Chris to come all the way to Hot
Springs. He asked his mama if he can go. She said as long as you have a ride back. Now we weren’t around when he ask his mama and told him to have a ride back. He told his mama he has a ride

    McCandless was different from the normal person because a lot of people day dream about escaping away from our society and going to the wilderness but very few actually go through with it. He was also different from the normal person because he knew he was going to into the wilderness unprepared and he did not care about what the outcome was going to be because of it. As he told Ronald Franz,“I’m living like this by choice” (52). He knew what he was doing. A normal person with any slight common sense would go to the wilderness prepared at least with proper gear and…

It is inevitable that out of all the relationships that I have made there are negative and positive aspects of each relationship, which I learned from and each of these relationships are blessings. Every relationship is crucial…

    Twelve year old Michael Korsport thought that nothing else in the entire universe would infuriate him more than his older brother, Ian Korsport.
