"God Father"

When someone says a deal is a deal don’t disobey that deal or that person will try to get revenge on you. The revenge won’t be easy and painless. It will be one of the most painful things you face in your lifetime depending on how bad you want to get revenge on that person. The strange story “Godfather Death,” shows that people may seem fair to you but some people may cheat on you no matter what you do.

Death may seem fair but what he says doesn’t matter it’s his actions that really show. This story would be pointless without his irony plotline throughout the interesting story. Obviously, this an unrealistic story that will never happen in reality. But why did his own godson cheat on him twice is the real question? Knowing that death has power if you live or die, the godson has no way out. If you try to cheat on death things wouldn’t turn out so good for you.

Some people may seem fair to you but some people may cheat on you no matter what you do or say in the strange story “Godfather Death.” All you can do is try to defeat death if you don’t defeat death he can kill you any time he wants.

"The Raven" By: Edgar Allan Poe

Imagine your one love that you care about has died. Feeling so hopeless, you don’t know what to do about it. All you can do is think of all the great memories you two had together. But you can’t do anything about it. In this short, complicated poem, “The Raven,” Edgar Allan Poe showed that instead of hoping for something that will never come back to you, you need to give up and move on.

The narrator fell in love with the girl of his dreams; that girl would be Lenore. He hoped that she would come back to life but she will never come back. But he just doesn’t understand that . “Presently my soul grew stronger; hesitating no longer” said Poe. Although his soul grew stronger hoping for Lenore it was darkness at his chamber door. All a dream, and no more. “Shall be lifted nevermore,” quoth Poe. Finally, Poe is realizing this was all a a dream and she cannot come back. His heart will never be lifted anymore. In other words, he will always be depressed.

When you hope for something that will never come back to you, you need to give up and move on in the poem “The Raven,” by Edgar Allan Poe. Obviously, the woman of his dreams is gone and can’t take the death back. Furthermore she will be in heaven and you have to move on.

Pewaukee vs. De Pere

Only one player on the bench it’s overtime wanting to beat De Pere so bad for the final spot to the championship game. Can’t risk anything. No forced shots. No turnovers. And no fouls. Every one working so hard on both teams to win this game. No one is hitting any of their free throws to take the lead as we are tied with thirty three seconds left on the clock. Pewaukee is on defense. Suddenly, the best player on the team strives as fast as she could to the basket pounding the ball harder than ever on the shiny wooden floor before shooting her layup. But she missed her shot and she fell to the ground not knowing what happened to her and because everyone was too focused on their person. She didn’t make her shot but the whistle was called as we were running back on offense. 2 dribbles 1 spin. Getting more scared as she was dribbling the ball before taking the free throw to win the game. Getting so scared my heart pounding so hard if she makes either one of these shots. Shot is put up with nice follow threw hits the back of the rim and slowly slides in the hoop and rubs against the white net. NO! Pewaukee is now losing the game 23-24. Down by one point. Same routine 2 dribbles 1 spin. For the second shot to put up. The ball is put up and didn’t even reach the rim. Yes! We have a chance to make something happen. Ball is now in play. Pewaukee has the ball but cannot get a nice shot on offence because of how tough defense De Pere is playing. They are overplaying everyone on defense. The fans screaming at the top of their lungs FIVE…FOUR… the shot was thrown up hoping the shot will fall right thru the hoop. Everyone rushes to the hoop for an easy rebound if I miss this shot. But it was so fast it flew out of bounds before anyone even get by the hoop. The crowd goes in sign knowing that we lost this game. This wasn’t just any game. This was the final game to the championship. Play hard, or go home. We gave this game are all we just didn’t achieve what we wanted.
