23/6 ( 3.00 – 5.00 ) 2.00 I’ve always been an independent child. Ever since my childhood, despite having a lot of friends, there wasn’t anybody that I really got attached to except my mother and I must say that everything seemed to be predestined as if a meticulously crafted plan when I met Sally, the one who taught me what is really meant by the word “buddy” and the one whom I shared the same interests, confidences and jokes, to say that she was my one and only soul partner would be understatement as we always took only a while to end our “cold war”. We knew that we needed each other all the time. It all started on a day when Sally and I were walking home after school. We, at the bus stop, met her boyfriend, Peter who was quite good looking but I must admit that he just looked like a playboy! Not to disappoint Sally, I could do nothing but only to brush away the thoughts of him when I was introduced to him. It took only a moment to prove my instinct was true. He started calling me up few days later just to talk and worst still, he insisted on dating me. I dreaded it. All sorts of terrible thoughts came up to torment me as I didn’t know how to tell my lifetime companion about it. Had he fallen in love with me? Or he was just fooling with me? Should I tell Sally about this? Days stretched into weeks and I, at long last, could not hold things in anymore and narrated everything and anything about what her boyfriend was doing. The next thing pursued would etch profoundly in my mind even the passage of time could not erode it. “Love you? What a sick joke?!! I love Peter and Peter loves me. That’s all. Wonders will never cease that Peter would love you.” Lingering for a few long seconds, she continued to splutter with rage. “Aha! You must be jealous of our blissful love! Never ever for the likes of you could break our relationship not

    I was closing in behind her as she reached the crosswalk. She started to cross, of course I followed. After we crossed the street, she walked for awhile, then she sat down on a communal bench. “May I sit here?” I asked. “Of course,” she replied. A minute or two later, she asked “You look familiar, do I know you?” I stated who I was. Everything clicked after that. We started talking about the old days when nothing really matters. I lost track of time, we sat there for what seemed like minutes. Only to find out it had been a couple hours. We exchanged phone numbers, I told her to keep in touch. We went our separate ways, I called a cab and went back to my…

    Even though he only had one tattoo I yearned him to fill the lonely hours between Dr Phil and days of our lives. as he approached me with his pasty white arms hanging out of a Nike vest,his smile told me it was dole day, and I knew my velour track suit would be hanging off the lampshade tonight. As I stood in line at centrelink, thinking up reasons why I can't work, a sweet smell drifted past my pig like nostrils. It was a mixture of weed, sweat and lynx Africa! I turned and there he was Dwayne, with his pants halfway down his arse,our eyes met and he was soon lifting me onto the wheelie bins behind the Rec Centre. He had already tied his staffy to a post in an alleyway so we would not be disturbed. There was a tramp watching but it did not bother us, just added to the mystery. I knew then that this was love and my life would never be the same again. I made a promise to him there and then that I would buy him a plasma with the baby bonus.....…

    It was the September 1st when the magical day happened. I had been working for john for about three months. Mrs. Elizabeth (Johns wife) had become sick some weeks ago and hasn’t been able to get over it. I had decided to do some reading while Mrs. Elizabeth was sleeping. I had only read ten pages before John came behind me. He bent down breathing into my ear and scared me out of my chair. I closed my eyes waiting to hit the floor but just before I had I felt someone catch me. I looked up to see who it was that had caught me and to my surprise it was john! He was smiling at me with lust filling his gaze. As soon as I saw that I could help but start to blush. I quickly said thanks you, mixed with the blush it caused him to let out a jolly laugh. As he was bringing me to my feet he whispered into my ear that he liked me a lot. After hearing this I became braver. I asked him if there was anything I could do for him for saving me from falling. He looked at me and told me that he was sure I could do something for him and that I was to meet him in the barn after everyone goes to bed.…

    When confronted with conflict, peoples moral centre can cause them to act in heroic ways. When we are exposed to war and devastation our reactions to this......... Thousands of Chinese students gathered in a peaceful protest for basic Democratic reform at Tiannaman Square 1984. Due to these actions they were senselessly and inhumanely killed in cold blood by the Chinese Military. The students were unarmed and in no way of a danger to anyone. This devastation shocked the world and erupted massive conflict. One thing that this devastation proved to the world that during times of conflict where ones moral compass is tested there true heroism is revealed. A small, unexceptional figure in pants and white shirt, looking tiny next to the hulking tanks, carrying what looks to be his shopping, positions himself before an approaching tank, with a line of 17 more tanks behind it. The tank swerves right, he moves in front again. The tank swerves left, he moved in front again. Then this anonymous bystander climbs up onto the vehicle of war and says something to its driver, "Why are you here? My city is in chaos because of you." With a single act of defiance, a lone Chinese hero revived the world's image of courage. He was the “unknown rebel” also know as the Tanks Man a man who was immensely courageous and a beacon of hope. The courage that it took to walk out against such massive machinery, knowing good and well that it could very well be your last day on this earth is inspiring. He took courage to a whole new level, becoming a world hero of sorts. This ordinary everyday man had stood up to one of largest of armies which was an undeniably, extraordinary act. Another man who stood up for what he believed in response to such brutal and callous acts was a man named Bradley Manning. A man who new his moral obligation was to show the world what the Government was hiding from them. Manning was an…

    Conflict, whether we choose to admit it, is a part of life. Conflict may be sparse in a persons life, and most of which is over trivial things, but when faced with a conflict great enough, the very fibre of a persons being is tested, and how they react proves what kind of person they are. This testing only occurs when one is taken far from their comfort zones, and is such often difficult to see. This is not the case in regards to those involved in the witch trials of Salem in 1692.…

    The period for a new election of a citizen to administer the executive government of the United States being not far distant, and the time actually arrived when your thoughts must be employed in designating the person who is to be clothed with that important trust, it appears to me proper, especially as it may conduce to a more distinct expression of the public voice, that I should now apprise you of the resolution I have formed, to decline being considered among the number of those out of whom a choice is to be made.…

    In the nineteenth century, the great nation of America that had been so successfully founded and developed by its united citizens was threatened by civil war. The early part of the century sought compromise that would end disputes between the Northern and Southern regions of the country; however, by 1850, tensions between the two parties had risen far beyond conciliation. These tensions that made compromise impossible centered mostly on the issue of slavery, and the zeal that many people had in defending their own view of slavery. The division of political parties, economic standing, and moral beliefs that slavery caused in the Antebellum Era ultimately led to the collapse of a united nation.…

    At first the civil War was about saving the Union, but it became much more when the debate of slavery in the North and South came about. Sectionalism became a problem. Copperheads were Northern Democrats who opposed the Civil War; they wanted peace in the South. Jefferson Davis was the president of the Confederate States. Davis argued against secession, he was not as successful as President Lincoln. In the 1860’s, soldiers of the Union and the Confederate started deserting the army. The North and the South passed a law saying all white men ages 18-45 had to a Military draft called conscription. Even slaves went into the Southern military. Even though the slaves did have the Under Ground Rail Road, the Slaves that stayed behind use this as a way to escape.…
