Thousands upon thousands of definitions exist for the concept of beauty. Beauty is the materialization of the good in life that we react to with love and compassion; beauty is the idea of certain objective features of the world that generates an elated sentiment. There is no one definition of beauty. Beauty can be both happy and sad, and it can also be ugly – it all depends on who’s judging. The subject matter does not determine anything. It is the percipient that determines all. In the case of the

English Assessment My name I Jason Smith, and my journey starts in a small run down village named Green Oak. I am a simple man with simple tastes. I live in a small house on the edge of town: the house is a run down green building that looks like it has seen better days. Walking through the front door after a hard day of work you are met with the smell of damp from the cold termite infested walls and the smell of smoke from the smouldering coal fire at the front of the room. This day like any other

abilities; for example, the technology within the house expects that Mrs. McClellan, likely the wife of the homeowner, cannot even select a poem to read. Because humankind is thoughtless, the home’s automation chooses to recite a piece by Sara Teasdale, “There Will Come Soft Rains.” Interestingly, this poem asserts that nature will outlive mankind, and it foreshadows the next events in Bradbury’s story. During the climax, a tree crashes through the house and causes a devastating inferno. Bradbury states

about this house from all my friends. They said that the people who lived here were the most famous robbers, the black burglars. And they also said that the black burglars were trigger pullers. And the house that I was standing in front of was theirs. All of the windows were broken, probably from gunfights with the cops or from fights with each. There was a strong smell of mold all around the house and the rotting wood was covered with moss The balcony on the right side of the house looked like

Imagine a house out in the middle of nowhere, with nothing surrounding it but woods, for as far as the eye can see. Huge mountains that are miles away would seem as if they are touching the sky. Thousands of acres of untamed wilderness just waiting to be explored. Wide open fields and woods so thick you can barely see through them. Huge pine trees surrounding a crystal clear stream in the middle of the valley. If I could live anywhere in the world, I would build a log cabin out in the middle of

Tallahassee I was familiar with, I was familiar with my neighborhood the most. I lived in a reddish-brown brick house that had a dark Oakwood colored roof on it. Up until the mid-2000’s the house was very dark to the presence of dark colored paint on the house and was often covered by spiders. Around 200t the house was painted with much lighter colors and the entire appearance of the house and the vibe it gave completely changed. Around the Second to my bedroom I spent the most amount of my time in

Time. 10:19 p.m. South Florida. The traffic light rests at red for an eternity, mocking me with its condescending gaze. I quickly turned my head both directions, not a car in sight for what it seemed to be miles. Is this some kind of joke? Looking into the rear view mirror, nothing there by me. James Montgomery. Glasses, brown hair, green sweater vest, and an untrimmed beard. Some people say I resemble a young Robin Williams from Good Will Hunting. I’ll take that as a compliment. A journalist

The sorting would scream “HUFFLEPUFF” I knew it was the right match for me. I envision there is a reason for everything and I can’t wait to see what it is! Maybe Hufflepuff will win the house cup. Or maybe even I will be on a quidditch team someday. I will just have to watch and see. I am hard-working which forms a perfect fit for me. I like school and that makes me pay attention more in class. Especially when it is interesting! I receive mostly A’s in all of my classes. Hard-working doesn’t necessarily

Never did I think the people of this town would do this to me, the most beautiful and prestigious house of Jefferson! I used to hear admirations as people walked by me, now it’s nothing but whispers and looks of disgusts as people argue whether or not it’s worth tearing me down; I’ll never let them pull me down! I would rather collapse to the ground before they pay people to come and pull me apart, like some disgusting barn for animals. Surely there is someone that would appreciate my seventies style
