But now, Miley Cyrus has taken on Lauper’s role. Miley cut off her long hair; she is now wearing shorter, tighter outfits; and her dancing has been more provocative in the past year or so.

I have spent much of my free time this semester reading and analyzing three novels for my English class. One book in my opinion stands out among the others. The three books had some similarities between them, but the books also had quite a few differences. Through those similarities and differences I have concluded that Hatchet is by far my favorite.

variety of classic rock artists Supertramp, The Who, Trooper, BTO, Kiss, Rush. I listened to these artists to emulate my siblings and make a connection with them.
