For my Stranger Paper I chose Gavin Seymour to stalk as he was only person in the class I've never seen before. Gavin is a sophomore male who portrays himself to be an introvert. He is academically challenged but does not participate in any school sports or extracurricular activities. Gavin is 5’11”, of average weight with a slight bulky muscular build. Being a sophomore, Gavin is most likely 15 years of age. His dirty blonde hair can be seen gelled up in his 7th grade and freshman year picture, however during the two weeks of observation is hair was relaxed and laying flat which could mean he only styles his hair for special occasions and does not have the time in the mornings to worry about his hair on a daily basis. Gavin's eyebrows are slightly lighter in color than his hair and …show more content…

Gavin's eyes are dark brown and some days the dark circles under his eyes can be more noticable which indicates he is bad with time management as he is either up late doing school work or watching tv and playing video games. With a slight gap in the front teeth and a few crooked teeth on the upper Gavin has either never had braces or was too irresponsible to wear his retainer. Gavins skin is of even tone but struggles with acne probably due to the many times he touches his face throughout the day. Consisting of a few sweatshirts, pants, and shirts Gavin's wardrobe reveals he is a very particular person and sticks to a certain routine and presence. One of his two sweatshirts is a grey zip up with paint or something white stained on the left shoulder which hints that he likes to paint or work on construction projects. The second sweatshirt is a black pullover with distressed strings most likely from Gavin's picking habit which will be discussed

    While it is clear that teenagers typically suffer from mood swings and unsettling behavior, this is not the case for Holden Caulfield in The Catcher in the Rye. J.D Salinger portrays his protagonist, Holden, as a cynical and unstable character whose issues may seem dismal; however, his actions and recurring thoughts prove to be much graver than expected and correspond to many of the signs of a psychological disorder described in the article “What’s Normal and What’s Not”. Often, Holden does appear to be dealing and coping with his issues like any other teenager. For example his cynical judgements, listless attitude, and need for independence can very well be perceived as normal rebellious behaviors seen in adolescents.

These people show us by example how to follow Jesus Christ, they let us learn from their mistakes, and they allowed the Holy Spirit to speak through them when writing the New Testament Scriptures. These heroes include people like Matthew, John, Mary, Paul and so many others, but one that has been speaking to me lately is Peter.

    The fact that Sir Arthur ConanDoyle did not share the level of his readers` excitement about his character is definitely worth mentioning. The author considered the stories about his detective as his average writing, which in his opinion were good enough only for one-time reading as “penny dreadful” (Thompson 32-33). Doyle could not understand what was so special in Sherlock`s image which made readers waiting impatiently for the next story. The writer was always saying that Sherlock distracted him from his «more serious» work which includes historical and science fiction books: He [Conan Doyle] had ... become entirely disillusioned with Sherlock Holmes, morosely blaming the voracious public appetite for the great detective’s adventures for obscuring his more important work – his historical novels, plays and poems – and preventing him assuming what he believed was his rightful

    Reflecting on the year, 2016, my one word for it would have to be “mad”. Looking at social media posts, and listening to people around me, it seems apparent that Every Single One of Us just seemed so “mad”, about Every Single Thing. “Mad” in the terms of angry. Anger is the most negative force: When in action, and in dominance against the good in this world, it is dividing. We all know, historically, what this kind of madness can do to a society, so there is no need to go there.
