The Bank Robbery - Original Writing
Bob sat motionless, scanning the street from the car he has stolen two
days ago, a 1987 green s-class that no one would notice. He'd been
parked in front of a grocery store lot for about 2 hours tracking
everyone who went in and out of the Springfield Bank. Nobody really
paid attention to the cars in the grocery store lot.
Bob hadn't always been so careful. He'd spent a few years in prison
because he was a bit stupid to think his plans through. But by now he
had worked out some pretty good rules to follow. He figured out that
it was best to pick on small town's with small bank's, just like the
Springfield Bank, which didn't usually keep a large amounts of money
on hand. Bob didn't need too much for his purposes anyway; he never
liked the way of rich. He just wanted to lead a nice simple life away
from the big cities.
Springfield didn't have much of a police force just a few cops here
and there sorting out minor offences, which was their most serious
duty.
The Interstate Highway, ideal for a quick getaway, was only half a
mile away from the bank. Bob also decided to switch cars half way with
another car he had stolen, so the police wouldn't stop him.
Last night, he went to sleep in his Mercedes, which was parked in a
deserted part of town so no one would get suspicious. But just in case
he kept on moving his car through the streets. He'd decided to skip
breakfast because he didn't want anyone realising that he was from out
of town. But this morning he had to wait a bit longer than he wanted
to, he was hoping just if a few more customers went in the bank he
could take there possessions...

She reached over and removed his gun from his pocket. Then handcuffed
him and put him into her car. She transmitted a backup call for more
police to come and search the seen of the crime.
Bob asked, " Why didn't you stop me earlier then."
"So you could do the crime and so now I can get you behind bars for
quite some time."

Through a few different phone calls and some schematics (like when Bob faked his death and acted as a Private I) Bob gets Leo's vacation address and the next moment he's in Lake Winnipesaukee, New Hampshire. Standing in the middle of the street Bob shouts until he sees Leo. Annoyed and disturbed, Leo agrees to meet with him under one prerequisite; If they meet Bob must promise to go back to New York the following day. Waiting to meet with Leo, Bob becomes familiar with the owners of the diner who happen to hate Leo Marvin for stealing their dream home. The envious couple takes Bob to Leo's home and he arrives at the back door. Baffled, Leo tried to put things into perspective for Bob by writing him a perscription that reads "take a vacation from ...

In trying to determine is a story is an urban legend or not, there are several different topics examined within the contents of the story. One of these is regarding how long the story has been around, for stories that are modern are what we consider urban legends and not folktales. A tale that has been around for a significant period of time, but what we would still consider ‘modern’ is “The Double Theft” from The Criminal Mind chapter. In this story, the beginning sentence is, ‘This “true” story was told to me back in 1970 in Silver Spring, Maryland” (Harold, 308). In this, it actually lists the year that the author originally heard the rumor, giving it the credit of being recent enough to count as an urban legend.

It is absolutely clear that you feel sad when somebody cheated and duplicate your own things. This causes many people to feel frustration and getting upset when they are facing this difficult situation. We know it is not a good attitude for students, authors, and anyone else to use something misappropriate that they didn’t belong it. I read an article that called “When the Story Stolen is Your Own”. When the author Sherman Alexie was writing this article, he was feeling nervous because somebody has stolen his article and use it in his own. Nobody didn’t believe him when he told the publisher that his story was stolen by someone and imitate that he belong it. Same as the students when they cheated each other and submit the same paper, it was one of the biggest challenge that happens some of the students when they are in the college.
Of many crimes ranging from theft, rape all the way to capital murder. “Do the crime you do the time.”
War is an inevitable struggle that humanity constantly faces. It is best described by the words of Bertrand Russell, an English philosopher; “War does not determine who is right - only who is left.” There are many consequences of war, such as economic, developmental and security: however an important one is humanitarian, more specifically, the psychological effect that war and violence impacts on the population. In most literature, the protagonist in a war event is often depicted as an older individual, one who is in their adult years, and their journey through the event. Nevertheless in Bernard Cornwell’s The Last Kingdom and Markus Zusak’s The Book Thief both of the protagonists are both considerably younger than

The media has come to dominate the lives of many of today’s youths. In The Great Imagination Heist, Reynolds Price expresses extreme dismay at the media’s ever-tightening grasp over the impressionable minds of adolescents. He sincerely feels that the effects of prolonged exposure to television, film, video games, and the Internet are detrimental to the development of a youth’s imagination and ability to think freely, without outside influence. The word “heist” indicates the intention to rob or steal. Price laments what he perceives to be the robbing of original, personal thought. He longs for the days when people read books freely and television was little more than a negligible aspect of our daily lives.

Many of us have heard stories about the Holocaust, but did you know that over 11 million people died? Death was a very important yet regular aspect of Nazi Germany, and The Book Thief did a great job describing this destruction. In this novel we are guided through a whirlwind of romances, like Rudy and Liesel’s long lived love for each other, and Rosa and Hans’ hidden desire, but equally we are faced with heartbreaks, and even more often, death. The narrator uses many literary devices to describe the process of death, and the fact that even if we foresee it, it never comes easily.
