“The Liars’ Club” Mimic Sunday, December 24th is the day of my death. I feel a warm sensation trickling down my head and through my body. I hear sounds, a siren wailing in the distance, then shouts accompanied with frantic foot steps. But none of that matters anymore as I savor the last moments of my life. I feel no fear as death approaches, only gladness as snowflakes dance in the sky around me and embellish the world in pure white. Snow dances, silencing the sounds around me; hiding the ugliness of the gray clouds hanging overhead. The world becomes still as the snow accumulates a bed sheet on me, as though protecting me; then a growing white light begins to shine into view. They say your life flashes before your eyes before your eyes. At

First Snow The ghastly precipitation fell in the skies as if hell had poured to impose judgment. Snow bleed down with crisp edges that were as sharp as a spinning wheel that landed upon all the living and the dead. A cacophony filled my ears with the sound of nature and fearful humans. Within all the chaos something so ghoulish yet alluring caught my eyes. The figure sat atop the steel edifice observing the night city with an expression filled with disinterested.

The passages flow over my skin smoothly, gliding effortlessly through the air like an orca glides through the deep, frigid sea. Today's piece can only be described as snow in the frigid arctic: the notes are beads of ice tumbling and shattering among the wind, wailing and screaming, that is the melody; the harmony is the unrelenting snapping and cracking of ice as it tears itself slowly apart; and the various accents and articulations tie it all together, miniscule specks of life among the harsh, inhospitable terrain. It is the coldest piece I have encountered so far-I can almost feel the chill from the music traveling up through my baton and into my body, numbing and freezing, until I am not sure if I can remember what warmth feels like anymore. Then there is the lurking undertone-a dark, distant feeling I would rather bury-humming gleefully as it slithers within the bass line of the piece.

We were liars is a story about the ideals we are all supposed to aspire to, simply because of the way our society defines success; as being forceful, reckless, hasty and bold. The dauntless ideal Cadence falls prey for. In my opinion the book is trying to shed light on the insidious backside of our idea of heroism, and the too often gruesome consequences it might bring. That it more frequently than not results in the unnecessary suffering of others. Cady’s cousin Mirren on the other hand, had a very different life motto: ”Always be kinder than you have to”.
“We Were Liars” can be interpreted to have many different themes. The theme can be seen as family, love, competition, but in my case I interpret the central theme as being power. The story is about a severely damaged family. The Sinclair family.
A confession is a physical or oral explanation where a person confesses to being guilty of a specific crime.

The day was just after my brother’s birthday and we had just finished celebrating his birthday. My brother was more surprised, however, by the amount of snow that covered the yards outside. We both awoke to a sight much more impressive than that of December, a white landscape obscuring everything laying on the ground, including the cars. My brother and I changed faster than firemen getting ready for a rescue, as we ran outside to see the fascinating snow that surrounded our neighborhood.
In Colorado, the wispy sky looked as lonely as I felt: all confusion, all worry, all the frayed, brittle parts of life I don't want to look at. On the long road to Mississippi, we gazed at a violent lightning storm: drove straight into it, like crawling into the mouth of heaven to reach for something higher. Caught between torrents of rain and a sunset until the snowcapped mountains dropped away and we were left with a open world of blue vastness in gleaming sun-rays.
Honesty, Integrity, and Lies Synthesis Essay Though often times revealing the truth may cause more damage than good, it is only rarely true. Rather than achieving what is intended, all lies regardless of the size, create conflicts which in return result in irresolvable consequences like permanent distrust and an inability to sustain relationships. How would man live if he were only told lies and little truth?
As winter struck the leaves started to turn pale and colorless, the trees were being crushed by the weight of the snow. With each step I took the ground starting sucking me in, as if it were quicksand. My body felt weak, my arms and legs couldn’t shiver anymore, I was begging for death. The eyes of the mountain stared at me with the look of mercy. I fell to the ground wondering if the knowledge I retained was worth the agonizing journey ahead of me.
