My living room
In my family, living room is a special room where all the members can gather together in some special days. My living room is quite large and it has a balcony with a lot of colorful artificial flowers decorated by my mother. When coming to the living room, I feel very comfortable with a sweet smelling spreads out from the big flower base which is put in the middle of the sofa table. My mother’s hobby is arranging flowers so she changes the flowers every week, such as roses, sunflowers, orchids and usually waters for them. Affected by my mother hobby, I bought two small artificial flower bases to decorate for my room in Canada. Actually, before going to school I see them and feel very active to start with a new day. The living room is designed by my mother with a very big and warm sofa and a sofa table. There are six tea cups and a tea pot above the sofa table also. The whole tea pot is very beautiful and always used to welcome the guests who visit our home. My father has a collection of wines and he puts all kinds of wines to the sideboard. Furthermore, in the evening the lights will be turned on to make the sideboard shine sparklingly. They are very valuable to my father so my brother, sister and I hardly stand near that sideboard. Because we are afraid of broking them and sure we will be punished. When shopping in Superstore, I usually notice some kinds of wine which my father likes. I attend to buy some wine bottles for my father when I come back home to visit. Our family can enjoy singing karaoke or watching movies together with all modern facilities such as the amply, the big TV and the DVD player facilitated by my father. Last week, when I joined to a friend’s party, there was a big TV and we watched an action movie together. That reminded me to my familiar living room. And the best thing I like in the living room is my piano which always makes me feel relax when I have a pressure in life.

    Growing up reading and writing has always been a part of my life; you could always catch my mom sitting in her chair with a book by her favorite author in her hand. I’ll always remember the day that she read a play to me, she was never into theatre as a kid but she read it as if she had been on Broadway. I think that is where my love for reading as well as theatre first started, just watching her so focused and completely into a book. It always amazed me and to this day it still does. I’ve also had some amazing teachers throughout my school years. Have you ever had those teachers who would do anything in the world for you? The teachers who just made you so excited to learn? I know that I have a few; they are the ones that you could never forget. From my English teachers to my theatre teachers, they have all made a difference in my life. I know that it sounds crazy that theatre ties in with all of this, but it does in so many ways.…

    The House I Live In

    The war on drugs whether wrong, right, or indifferent, has yielded a plethora of life changing outcomes for many United States citizens. Both the plaintiff and the defendant have their own side of the dispute, and yet somehow the plaintiff in the non-stop ‘cash grab’ that’s so conveniently nicknamed the “War on Drugs” gets the benefit of zero-tolerance, or minimum sentencing. In most cases the defendants simply are doomed from the beginning due to horrible living conditions and lack of jobs in the area. Coupled with police brutality and prejudice pointed toward the African-American community as a whole, it should come as no surprise that in 2011 there were more African-Americans in prison or “under the watch” of the justice system than were enslaved in the United States in 1850. This is not any more a war on drugs than the Iraqi Conflict was a war on the seizure of weapons of mass destruction.…

The story is set in both Florence Italy and England during the Edwardian era where societal standards were different and the upper class were unforgiving on lower class peasantry.

    My Parent's Bedroom

    In the short story “My Parent’s Bedroom” by Uwem Akpan, the country of Rwanda is having a civil war between the Hutus and Tutsis, the primary trying to eradicate the latter. The Hutus force Papa to kill Maman, which she convinces him that it was only solution. However, it wasn’t the best choice in his family’s situation. The Wizard and the Hutus arrive to ensure that Papa slays his Tutsi spouse, Maman. Papa murders her to please the crowd, “If you let any Tutsi live, you’re dead. And then they begin to leave, some patting him on the back,” (27). I find this to be the only major decision made in the story because it severs the whole family’s connection with one another, and especially leaves Monique traumatized. There were few consequences,…

    My own backyard is my favorite place to visit. I say this because when I walk out my backdoor my senses come alive. I can enjoy the smells, sounds, and touch of nature. I use my backdoor as a place to escape from the real world and the tension of everyday life. It is like walking into another world. It is a place of serenity, where I can relax in my futon, forget about all my worries, and enjoy the view of my surroundings. I can take a walk, and have the pleasure of seeing different varieties of nature. There is a different picture every time I open the door.…

    The Bedroom

    • 497 Words

    Although viewing a painting by definition, includes the process of visual perception, it is not limited to the “eye” of the beholder. I have chosen to look at Van Gogh’s 1888 oil on canvas painting, The Bedroom. What one “sees” in any image is colored by a plethora of factors that inform the viewer-consciously and unconsciously. Thus, Plato’s argument about the objectivety of art, its quantifiable ability to be “judged” is based on a flimsy, static version of human beings. But, it is equally strange to pretend that an image is merely a subjective experience, as though the context, history, and intention were not part of the process. As Berger notes in his essay, “Ways of Seeing,” [w]hen an image is presented as a work of art, the way people look at it is affected by a whole series of learned assumptions about art. Assumptions concerning: Beauty, Truth, Genius, Civilization, Form, Status, Tast, etc.”…

    There is an old proverb which states "When you are a child, your room is the world to you." I believe this is a very true statement and applies to most children. In a room of his own a boy can become whatever he likes and make his surroundings fit that idea or "theme" if you will. I have grown out of these childhood fancies, but still have an evident theme controlling this place where I spend my time.…

    Perfect Place to Relax

    • 850 Words

    Up to now, I have owned this room for five years. It is designed and decorated in the way I like. The walls of the room are painted light blue which is my favorite color. This kind of color makes the room not only cool but also spacious. The wall in front of my bed is decorated by myself. In the middle of the wall, I put the biggest and the most beautiful photograph. A middle-aged man sits comfortably on the bench; his arm is draping around the shoulder of a woman next to him. She bends her head on his broad shoulder, having a beam of satisfaction. Two little girls in lovely, pink dresses stand behind them, smiling happily- pretty smiles as like as the woman. Next to two girls are two young men. One in a smart suit has a square face. His light brown eyes look straight in a sensible way. The other seems younger than him, but he gives other people a friendly and warm look. They are very happy and satisfactory. This is my family photograph. Around this photo, I put some snaps that I took not only with my family but also with my friends. These remind me of memorable and great moments with them who always give me lots of support; and they become my motivators which help my mind stronger to get over whichever difficulties.…

    My Cozy Room

    My favorite place is my bedroom because it’s the more comfortable place in my house when I’m tired and not feeling the best or maybe even need to relieve stress, I can go to my room and lay down and relax. My room is very spacious, quiet, relaxing, and cozy, I admire my room a lot because I can use my imagination while I just lay down in bed and close my eyes and think about things that are exciting. My room speaks a peaceful haven to me, my walls are light pink with matching boarder around the walls, with matching hello kitty comfortable set which make my room stand out a lot along with my pink pillows that my grandmother made for me years ago before she died in 2006 that I just cherish the most and won’t trade my pillows for anything in the world. My room is a common bedroom with a bed, TV, DVD player, stereo, laptop, and a fish tank, and a bookshelf with a lot of lovely books and magazine that I love to read. My room has a calming color along with a clean strawberry scent that I have always loved to vaporize my room with a wonderful scent, because the smell of the scent helps me to stay focus with whatever I’m doing and to just relax peacefully without any concern. My room gives a sense of security in a way that I can control who goes in and out my room, because my room holds all of my personal belongings which is very important to me, because I have things that can benefit me now and in the future, and my kids will probably benefit from some of my personal belongings in the near future. I can also go to my bedroom when I need to study for a quiz or submitted an assignment before midnight for school. I also can go to my room if I just want privacy by shutting my door and locking it, and telling others to do not disturb. I love the view that I have from my bedroom, because my window faces he water feature in my apartment complex hat makes it so beautiful to look out the window day or night and to be able to stand on the balcony and view he…
