Narrative Essay On Snow Fire
So, shoutout to Crystalwolf101, Snow Fire, and White Horse! The tomato was first used for food in Mexico and first grown for food in Central/South America.
I know, I haven't been updating lately, but sorry, I cut my finger with a saw, so it hurt to type on anything that wasn't a phone, and I got stung by a pesky mosquito on my eyelid, and that was swollen. These might all sound like excuses, so sorry about that, so I wrote a slightly longer chapter.
Warning: Violence and deaths, probably in the next chapter too

Shailey? Why aren’t you here yet? I need you really bad! Katrina thought. I can’t abandon the girl and teleport; Shailey might ring any second, but Shailey might be in trouble right this second! What should I do?

Her loyalty to her friend won over. Katrina teleported to the front

During the bloodbath, she had been too frightened to help the kids, but she had found a way to make up for it. “The house has a back food, and it's not even locked!”

Sure enough, the back door opened, and the kids snuck down the stairs into the basement, which was also a gym.
“Who has a gym in their basement?” a kid exclaimed loudly.

“I do, perhaps,” Katrina said. “What are you all doing down here? Come upstairs. The walls are soundproof, and the windows are bombproof. “How did you get in?”

Vulcan started to answer to make himself look like the leader again, but was cut off by Kat. “Oh, I forgot to pick the back door, didn't I?” The group walked back downstairs and surprise! In the living room, grinning crazily, was Mikael holding a gun, not the weak .22, but an army gun, from who knows where. Alise was also holding a gun, the .22, positioned at the back door to discourage the kids who thought about fleeing.

“Guess who's here?” Mikael whispered evilly.

So, guess who's there? The trivia question for this chapter is: Why are firetrucks red? Doesn't really have to do with the chapter, but still. Tip: don’t ask Siri

    Douglas Stewart's radio play, The Fire On The Snow, first performed in 1941, presents the story of Captain Falcon Robert Scott's tragic expedition to the South Pole. In the radio play, Stewart skilfully positions the audience to accept the dominant reading of the play by showing the dominant discourse: that heroes' nobility depends on their action and ordinary people can become heroes too. Stewart also positions the audience by using the role of the Announcer as a mask for himself to give comments to the stages during play in lyric verse forms and factual commentary statements, and also involve the men's dialogue.…

    Conflicting perspectives are an inevitable part of human existence as they arise from the complex interplay of individual experience, social and cultural background and influences. Representations of these discrepancies are fundamentally constructed through acts of deliberate selection and emphasis, enabling composers to manipulate audience’s conscious perceptions of truth and reality. David Guterson’s Snow Falling on Cedars portrays the necessity of accepting the inexorable existence of nature, fate and prejudices within society. Likewise Alissa Ti’s modern painting with analytical article Perfect Harmony integrates art, music and literature to represent humans’ essentiality in moving on from the difficulties in life. Together, conflicting perspectives represented through art parallels the subjectivity of life and shows that there is no conventional definition for “the truth” as it depends solely within each individual.…

    Sicilians discovered that tomato sauces were a good complement to pasta and pizzas and provided more color and flavor than the traditional butter or olive oil dressings. Throughout Southern Europe, the tomato was quickly accepted into the kitchen, yet as it moved north, more resistance was apparent. The fact that Europeans did not know how to prepare them and that they bore no resemblance to foods already in their diets made their acceptance more difficult and they also found the tomato difficult to prepare. It was too acrid to eat in its green stage but when it ripened, it appeared to be spoiled, and when cooked it disintegrated. They finally adopted the Aztec technique of grinding it into a puree. The British admired the tomato for its beauty but believed it was poisonous because of its appearance being similar to the wolf peach. The tomato was eaten in soups in England in the 1750s and is mentioned in the famous English cookbook of 1758. By the 1780s, tomato sauce was widely used in England. When it was first brought to Europe, since many Europeans considered it to be unappetizing and poisonous, it probably wouldn’t have had much value. Currently, it costs around $60 per ton for…

    The Great Seattle Fire of June 6, 1889 was a tremendous impact and “significant turning point” in Seattle's history. The fire left nothing, but little. The fire destroyed everything in it’s way and anything else flammable. The destruction the fire made were estimated at $20 million. In my opinion, the fire impacted everyone even if they don’t live in Seattle because it made them realize how one simple mistake can affect anyone in general.…

    Barn Burning Essay~

    • 384 Words
    • 2 Pages

    More than once, one may question whether they should support someone in doubtful choices that they have made. Of course the family member believes that their family will stand by their side no matter what, but there are boundaries. When an action or choice is so severe to the point that their family has to wonder whether to support them or not, it also questions what type of person they are. This internal conflict of whether to follow what he believes is right or to stand by his family happens to Colonel Startoris Snopes in William Faulkner's short story "Barn Burning." Sarty, a young boy, is brought in front of the court to testify against his father who was accused of burning down a barn. Because Sarty is just a little boy, he wants to stick to his father and he knows he has to lie to keep his father safe. He knows that he is lying in court, and the court knows this as well. The Justice realizes that they have put a young boy in a bad position and let the family go, though. As Sarty is dealing with an inner conflict of whether to stick to his blood by supporting his father or doing what is right, he slowly transforms from a young naive child to a more responsible man who starts to see the real world for what it is even though he has to betray his father in the process. What is more important, family or telling the truth? Family is more important in most cases, but not all. In the beginning, Sarty is completely set on supporting his father no matter what. He even attacks a passerby with defensive rage for yelling "Barn Burner!" But slowly, Sarty realizes that what his father is doing is wrong and beacuse they keep happening, Sarty knows that he must stop his father one way or another or else many others will get hurt. He warns Major de Spain about his father, betraying his entire family. After his betrayal to his dad, Sarty also lost him. It is a big struggle to choose from supporting family to doing what…

    I recently read a novel by Suzanne Collins titled, The Hunger Games. What I recall most about this book is the magnificent emphasis put on food. Every single meal eaten by the characters was described in such great detail that you would think the author was a former culinary student. As the name persists, food is a significant issue in this book. It’s a luxury for people living in the districts and a commodity for the capital. People from the districts often died of starvation while people who lived in the capital pushed a button to summons a three course meal. The person from a district who won the Hunger Games was guaranteed the fortune of food and money for the rest of their lives. Wow, what a prize!…

    As I crossed the road with my dog Henry, I could feel the frigid winter breeze on my face. Then I felt a snowflake land on my nose like a plane landing after a long flight. I didn’t like this cold weather at all but I had heard many children around me cheering and laughing. I heard things like “woohoo it is snowing” and things like “oww don't throw snowballs at my face”. That last one made me chuckle a little bit when I had heard it. Then I heard someone yell my name, which is Brian by the way. So I turned around and felt a big snowball hit my back.…

    The development of events outside a person’s control, regarded as determined by a supernatural power; fate. An indifferent power that predetermines the inevitable events and outcome of our lives; fate. A simple four letter word that controls so much more than we, human beings, truly come to realize in our lifetimes; fate. In the novel Snow Falling on Cedars, most of the citizens of San Piedro Island also fail to conclude that this powerful force is either working against them, or determining the outcome of their future. Given the fact that Guterson relates the entire novel to how a Japanese-American man, Kabuo Miyamoto, is accused of murdering a white fisherman by the name of Carl Heine, there are many instances in which fate is the reason behind the outcome of events. The whole reason that Carl actually died was because of chance; his death was a mere accident, not a murder. Similarly, the disastrous snowstorm that hits the island of San Piedro during the trial of Kabuo is also a prime example of fate because it controls how the trial goes on for the many characters involved. Likewise, Kabuo’s fate is decided for him, the final verdict being either life or death. In the end, whether the citizens of San Piedro realized it or not, fate was the main force that decided how the events and lives of those living on the island would turn out.…

    Tomato Origin Essay

    The tomato is thought to have spread across the world by way of Colonizers, mainly the Spanish conquest. One reference was by Bernardino de Sahagún, a Spanish missionary and author who wrote about a prepared sauce that was offered for sale in the markets of Tenochtitlan which consisted of tomatoes, hot red peppers, hot green peppers and pumpkin seeds (Roche, 2010). The Spanish spread the tomato throughout their colonies first, then the Caribbean, then to south Asia and later to the whole entire Asian continent. The Spanish also brought the tomato to South Europe specifically Italy, where it grew easily in Mediterranean climates and soon the cultivation began.…
