Author tells us this story from Rick Paradise face. In one of his parties Jake met Rick himself and then Rick introduced to Jake his friend, Todd Buckley. Buckley is a Fitz football team’s quarterback, a super star. Everybody respect him or they just afraid of him… In my opinion it is both, at the same time. Todd has a perfect authority among High school students and his teammates. We can figure it from couple quotations from book, like “To take sides with Jake against Todd Buckley would be a hanging offense at Fitz. Page 143. This quotation shows us that nobody would go against Todd, because if you would, that means you are alone against all Fitz students. Or in dialogue between Todd and Rick, Rick says:” Everybody here thinks that you are something more than just a third-rate quarterback a third-rate school. And you are not! If I feed you to Nelson, the sun will still rise tomorrow. Nobody talked to Todd like this. “-Not for you.” And he stormed out of the locker room.” Page

In books, the reader can usually relate to the characters with traits or preferences. While reading Schooled, a character I can make a strong connection to Darryl. Darryl makes lots of mistakes on accident the he didn’t mean to do. For example, when Zach and Hugh set Cap up to be hit by the football team, Darryl had been the one that hit him first. He and Cap were friends and he would never mean to hurt Cap in that way. After Darryl hit Cap, he felt lots of remorse that he had hurt a friend. I will do stuff like put a glass on a wood table and it gets stained. I didn’t even think about it but it still got me in trouble. Another way I am related to Darryl is that we both stick up for what is right. Cap is treated terribly by Zach but Darryl
...ater in the book Rick is no longer jealous of Todd and he isn’t afraid to confront him at the party. As quoted on page 143 “Don’t push me, I warned. If it comes down to you or Jake, I choose Jake. I’ll rat you out!” This doesn’t end well with how Nelson strangled Jake, considering Didi had to hit him over the head with a champagne bottle to save Jakes life. Nelson had to go to the hospital and it turns out that Jake takes the blame for Didi when the cops arrive, so in the end the jealousy wasn’t worth it.

Alcoholism is a chronic disease that affects many people, and is better known as a term for alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence. Researchers say there are many possibilities linked to becoming an alcoholic. First off, psychological issues have been linked to the addiction. People decide to drink to hide their feelings deep down inside of them that they want to try and repress. It is easier to use alcohol as a replacement instead
Alcoholism, as opposed to merely excessive or irresponsible drinking, has been thought of as a symptom of psychological or social stress or as a learned, maladaptive coping behaviour. More recently, and probably more accurately, it has come to be viewed as a complex disease in its own right. Alcoholism usually develops over a period of years. Alcohol comes to be used more as a mood-changing drug than as a foodstuff or beverage served as a part of social custom or religious ritual.
The Walking Dead, a television show about surviving in the zombie world, is based on the comic book with the same name created by Robert Kirkman. In this show Rick Grimes, a sheriff's deputy, awakes from his coma and finds himself in a hospital. He soon discovers that while he was in a coma the world had become infected, turning humans into flesh-eating zombies later called Walkers by the characters. As Rick sets out to find his family he encounters many other survivors such as Glenn, Daryl, Carl, Maggie, Carol, Sasha, Hershel, Beth, and Michonne, among many others who have died along the way. Rick and the survivors have been through a lot throughout the show, such as having to move from place to place to avoid being eating by walkers. After walking a longs way, they finally find shelter in an old prison where they now live. Although The Walking Dead shows a lot violence, it sends many positive messages to the viewers that teach them about survival, religion and betray and how each of these can be beneficial in the real world
..., cancer, liver and pancreas disease etc. There are many factors why do people drink, such as: make friends, forget problems, to feel happy, to relax, to feel less anxious, to feel confident and the genes, in my opinion play the key role in this problem. Some people don’t realize that this is a big deal, the big problem until it’s late. Once someone tried alcohol and become dependent it is hard to realize that person needs help to stop it. Also drinking alcohol is closely linked with use of other drugs, legal and illegal. Smoking, drinking and drug taking often co-exist. I chose this article to review because I think it has good examples to show people what causes alcohol dependence and what conditions one can get if drinking alcohol often. People need to remember that we live ones and it is important to keep ourselves healthy and none of bad habits worth our life.
