Donuts Don’t Lie by: Angela Wilkinson Mom was in the kitchen making a grocery list while Dad and Tay-Tay were in the family room. Dad was watching sports on T.V. and Tay-Tay was playing with his toys, secretly daydreaming of powdered donuts. He tasted them for the first time at his daycare yesterday afternoon. He just can’t stop thinking about those powdered donuts that melt in your mouth. “Honey, I’m going to the grocery store,” Mom called out to Dad. “Okay, Dear. Drive carefully

They gathered out in groups underneath the tall, jarrah trees with their eyes and smiles bright creating black silhouettes and making the girls skirts grow transparent, revealing the wishbones of their legs. There was every type of girl there; Girls that were drunk, or kissing, passed out
up in my mind when I hear the phrase ‘Room 101’. For example when someone chews with their mouth open or writing coursework but the three most irksome set of circumstances are starting a conversation while I’m playing PlayStation, elderly kissing me on my cheeks and forehead and lastly...the people who take ages to come out of a public bathroom. I cannot bear these three things. They have been the bane of my existence over the years. They are immensely irritating and infuriating. I've been tortured
tune, and the mood shifted from intense to playful. Audra found herself caught up in this transformation, and she danced like she had not since she was a girl. She engaged in many dances—circle, group, and partner—each one ending with her and Maxen kissing and embracing. Every time they did so, their friends cheered. Wisely, when the servants came to in whisk away plates and bring in more wine, they moved the cushions and trays to the very corners of the room so food and drink did not end up splattered
at the train station or you meet us at the airport… oh, I think she’s here.

sulking over Rosaline. “So shows a snowy dove trooping with crows,/ As yonder lady o’er her fellows shows,” (I, v, ll. 46-47).

This is a prime example of lust because Romeo did not even know her name or any single thing about her besides the fact she was the most
When she kissed him, we do not even know if it was on lips or on cheeks. “She bends down over him And gives the knight a kiss;” (Winny 85). Even through the contact such as kissing, Sir Gawain manages to pull himself together and refrain himself from doing the wrong things and go against the church’s teachings, which is the first code on the code of chivalry. Also, while
Antonia is a curious person by nature, always wanting to learn. She wants to learn the ways of the West, while learning English.

Romeo and Juliet first met at the Capulets’ party. Romeo was going to see Rosaline his first love. He was heartbroken over her, but that all changed. He had completely forgotten about Rosaline when he met Juliet. He fell in love with the way she looked. He fell in love with her eyes the way they sparkled like a starry night. He was seeing his whole new world right in front of his eyes. Juliet had felt the same way about him. They kissed and she didn’t care if it was a sin. Juliet was on her balcony
killing himself with his poison. This is just a sign of immaturity. He was only 18 when he killed himself. Some say it is a romance because it was love at first sight.

In William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, the symbol of poison is seen in Juliet faking her death, Romeo purchasing a vial with the intention of killing himself, and Juliet kissing the remnant of poison on late Romeo's lips with hopes of death.
