Hetic Day: A Fictional Narrative
I've had a hectic day.

I was about to bath.

So if you don't mind...

Oh, yes.

Alright, I won't keep you.
I'll see him some other time. Bye-ye.

No one will ever take you away from me.

Ever.

- You're back.
- Were you hoping I'd moved?

- How was your day?
- Same as yesterday and the day before.

- Just like it will be tomorrow.
- Do you always have to whine?

I have good reason.

This is what I made today.
Even the people I know didn't want to tip.

- Don't stress. I'll lend you some cash.
- No, thanks. I can take care of myself.

- You brought your own food?
- Be happy...

your groceries will last longer.

Why is that scoundrel following you around?

Can you hurry with my order?

- R96.
- Thank you.

I thought my wallet was in my bag.

    You made a good point that I haven't yet discovered while reading the essay "Warrior Day" by Anne Bernays. While reading the essay, I was too focused on Bernays experiences at the Marine Corps Base, and I pay no attention to Bernays religious background and reaction before she went to the Marine Base. In fact, her beliefs can affect the way she thinks and react to Dave's decision. I think you did a job deeply analyze the emotion inside of Bernays. As to answer your question A, I've always been confronted to a similar situation as Bernays. Most of the time, we would "judge another by their cover", but after knowing and interacting with them, we would regret the way we think of them, and that situation happened to me several times. Also, to your…

    Amy Chua’s thesis in Day of Empire is that the biggest contributing factor of the demise of hyperpowers throughout history is the loss of tolerance by the ruling entity. She believes that when the hyperpowers begin to decline they begin to blame everything on the outsiders. Sometimes this is caused by a regime change or a ruler’s search for a scapegoat. Her theory states that this intolerance causes social unrest and rebellion by the oppressed groups.…

    The story is told from three different POVs: From Libby Day in the present and from Ben and Patty Day in 1985. There’s a fourth narrative near the end that provides a surprising twist. You jump from past to present, slowly piecing together the story as Libby does. Whilst I’m not the biggest fan of multiple perspectives and constant flashbacks, I think that Gillian Flynn has this technique nailed down to a tee. It was a day in the year of 1985 when Ben – Libby’s older brother – allegedly murdered three members of his own family – including his mother, Patty, and two of his younger sisters – in cold blood. Only Libby somehow managed to escape the massacre. It was Libby’s coerced testimony that condemned Ben to a lifelong imprisonment. Now, after…

    Most private employers do not give the day off for Veteran’s Day. Just because the government recognizes a legal holiday does not mean that private-sector employers have to follow it. Federal holidays merely dictate what the government is going to do; how the rest of the country chooses to observe the holiday is up to them. Aside from the legal aspect, SHOULD employers be closing as a sign of respect to our military and the sacrifices being made overseas? Of course, the answer to this question depends on your perspective and business. Furthermore there does not seem to be a logical rationale as to why employers often give time off for Memorial Day, but not for Veteran’s Day, it certainly seems to send the message that unless you died in…

    Today was the day. The big day. My election for Lieutenant Governor of Division 2B for Key Club, an international service club, was today. Fear and anxiety pricked my skin in rapid movements emanating from every pore. I rehearsed my speech for the fifth time that day. Upon arrival at the Fairfax Library, I urged myself to remain calm. I quickly scouted out the other girls who were present; one girl was dressed professionally with a folder in her hand. I knew that was my competition. The girl spoke eloquently and genially, she radiated enthusiasm and a certain warmth that I did not have. With every question that was asked, she answered with a smooth smile and high-pitched tone that was dripping with sincerity. I bristled inside; I had just been slapped. I was shrouded in a cloud of anxiety and anxiousness. Suddenly, I was dragged from my reverie.…
