My First Date Her eyes shined like a glossy pearl just washing on a shore of black sand with the warm rays of the sun shining down on it. Lips of bright cherry red went well with the tight black dress she was wearing. The light hit her just right so you could see every luscious curve of her body. She smelled like an ocean breeze coming in to the shore. Just try to imagine the perfect most beautiful woman you have ever seen in your life and times that by ten fold. Absolute perfection on high heals. The day started out as any other day, but I seemed more excited than I'd ever been. My happiness was radiating off of me. My friend Sean asked, "Seth, why are you so damn excited today?" "Today," I replied, "Is going to be my first date." Sean said, "Well it's about time." "What do you mean it's about time?" "Well, How long has it been since SHE asked you out?" I thought for a second then answered, "About three weeks." "Precisely my point. You guys have been going out for three weeks and this will be your first official date. That's pathetic." He was right, it was pathetic, but the day had come and I couldn't wait to see the shimmer of her eyes. I was ecstatic through all of my classes. After practice, I went home started to make dinner. I planned on making a shrimp scampi dish, but later decided to go with a pasta dish. The end result was a seafood Alfredo stuffed with jumbo shrimp, king crab, oysters, clams, and many other ingredients and spices. Now that the food was almost done it was time to get ready. I let the Alfredo simmer while I went to take a nice steaming, hot shower. After about 15 minutes, I got out and dried off, then I went to my room to get dressed. I picked out ... ... middle of paper ... ...ent form the kiss. You need to realize though, that was no ordinary kiss. It felt like a million fireworks going off as one. Try to imagine what cartoon characters look like after a really hot woman just gave them a small peck for a kiss. How they're all drooling, how they look retarded with big, melted doggy eyes, and the walk like there drunk. That is how I felt; I mean it was a knock out and for my first kiss too! After the shock passed I calmly did a little jerk with my arm and said, "YES." That was the best night of my life. Chris was and still is an amazing, beautiful girl that I am, proud to say, still going out with and have a strong relationship with. She amazed me then and she amazes me now, and her eyes are still like two pearls fresh out of a pair of clams. I'm a lucky guy for having a girlfriend that is 'made out of the stuff dreams are made of.'
Her face is smooth, calculated, and precision-made, like an expensive baby doll, skin like flesh- colored enamel, blend of white and cream and baby-blue eyes, small nose, pink little nostrils-everything working together except the color on her lips and fingernails, and the size of her bosom.
Leslie Marmon Silko’s “Yellow Woman and a Beauty of the Spirit” focuses on the ideas of beauty and identity, specifically how her understanding of these ideas changed as she grew older. Throughout the text, Silko’s structure effectively establishes her beliefs and values through her use of flashbacks to integral people and events in her life and her retelling of the stories of her people. This organization not only makes her points clear, but it also makes the text convincing and engaging for the reader.
‘The poor behaviour of some children affects not only their learning but also the learning of others.’ (Adams 2009, page 4) This suggests that poorly managed behaviour in the classroom can have a detrimental effect on learning overall, as well as individually. This assignment will analyse how behaviour and learning are inextricably linked. This assignment will also emphasise how primary classroom teachers develop behaviour management strategies in order to promote an effective and positive learning environment.
The part of her hair gave birth to a running red river, so deep and rich and full of life it could call to mind in certain individuals of a sanguine cascade down stairs. The shape of her forehead, coupled with the delicate white of her skin, cast upon the room like a crescent moon. Then her face, the most angelic face, one of innocence and childhood ardor, had hints of lust carved into the creases around the eyes and besetting the lips. Her eyes were what she unaf...
The US is the number one producer of garbage all over the world, consuming 30% of the planet’s resources and producing 30% of all its wastes. The number is surprising considering that the US is home to just 4% of the global population. As the world modernizes and the population grows, producing more waste, waste management programs need to improve. Many are pointing to San Francisco because the city achieved an 80% landfill diversion rate, the highest in the nation. Furthermore, the city has set a goal of zero waste by 2020, meaning that no material goes to landfill or high-temperature destruction. Although specific programs many not be suitable or appropriate to imitate in other parts of the world, San Francisco has become the nation’s leader and model city for waste management and recycling in the US due to its unique geographical characteristics, mandatory recycling laws, public participation, and efficient recycling system.
Waste Management, Inc. remains the industry leader in collecting and burying trash, currently holding 273 landfills capable of holding 4.8 billion tons of trash. Additionally, they hold 91 recycling facilities, and 17 waste-to-energy facilities. However, 75% of its profits currently come from collecting waste for landfills, which is worrying because customers are now reducing waste, with major corporate customers attempting to go completely waste free. Furthermore, customers now want their waste recycled, and advocacy groups are petitioning against current landfill practices. In addition to their evolving external environment, they also host an internal environment that seems unable to swallow the changes to their customer base. Their infrastructure

“You have clean all this, don’t you dare break any.” I start cleaning the already sparkling glasses with a clean cloth. I notice that on the table had delicious looking pastries and buns on silver platters. My stomach growls painfully it had been weeks since I last ate properly, it seems as if the food was placed there as if to tease me. I hear playful footsteps thumping from above and see Bruno
Historically, theories about human nature and personality development did not reflect women’s visions, needs and opinions (Wellesley Centers for Women, 2011: Westkott 1989). However, Karen Horney, a psychoanalyst in the first half of the twentieth century began to question the concept of human nature being only associated with man and not woman (Eckardt, 2005). Through this questioning, Horney began to reinterpret Freud’s psychoanalytic theory on feminine psychology development, accumulating in fourteen papers written between 1922 and 1937 on feminine psychology (Smith, 2007). Published posthumously as Feminine Psychology (1967) these papers had a significant impact on feminist theory and have been cited as the ‘political and theoretical origins’
She notes that the waste volume decreased significantly even while both population and gross domestic product increased after the scheme implemented. Her example of Taiwan can demonstrate “reduction at source” is the root solution to solve the waste problem. With the purpose of settling the waste problem, the Hong Kong government seems to be seeking solutions actively. The government, however, is neglecting the key element of the problem. It is noticed that either setting up the incinerator or expanding the landfill area are only methods tackling the problem at the surface, but not the root. Although the government claims that she has “learnt from the experiences of other metropolises in the region at a similar stage of economic development,” (Green Hong Kong February 2011. 1) which are Taiwan, Japan and Singapore, it is actually misleading the general public. The above-named countries are not using incinerators as their “only” treatment, nor even a “main option” of waste management, it is observed that there are lots of policy to coordinate with. They are using, instead, “Producer Responsibility Scheme.” By a close coordination of the
... extremely descriptive. This description was probably the perfect description as we get a clear and accurate understanding of her face and how shocked she is.
Ah, the kiss was exciting to think about as well. I had no idea what it would be like, but I knew it would feel wonderful. This quick pucker and follow-through would be my initiation into womanhood, somehow setting me apart from other girls who could barely fill a bra or who, as rumors went, practiced kissing by mutilating fruit. A rite of passage, a first romance, yes. But my girlish head had set itself upon one quest: I would be truly in love with the young man I first
Environmental pollution has been a major concern to many stakeholders due to the related adversities that are associated with the practice. Human beings in general are well known to like having comfort and convenience at the minimum costs possible. The results of this has been the focus on the short term gains with little or no thought spared for the long term consequences of our behavior. Environmental problems are usually long term and the solution to these problems will only be realized at a higher cost if the remedy is not initiated early enough. Management of solid waste has come with a lot of challenges especially when recycling issues come to board. Solid waste management through recycling is something that has to do with behavior change among the population. According to environmental psychologists, recycling has been referred to as a ‘commons dilemma’. This means that natural resources are being overused due to the existing conflict between individual and group interests. Nevertheless, the government has taken center stage in conservation of the environment through the initiation of the recycling programs.
Efficient waste managing approaches help with reducing and avoiding unpleasant impact on the environment and human health, while allowing financial development and progress in the quality of people’s life. People do not even imagine what is the size and capacity of their activities and the impact they produce on the environment. Garbage is an important ecological problem. It is seems amazing that approximately all of the citizens of the world identify rubbish as a major environmental problem and yet these people still litter. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (2008), an American produces 250 million tons of garbage per year (para.2). There are different circumstances that are based on the society, environmental conditions, occupation and size of each of the different family. As Richmond (2010) stated, if no administration organizations has the responsibility or resources to concentrate their efforts on the waste disposal, then the responsibility to do that is on ...
