This journey was considered too dangerous for a woman to do, but nothing could stop her. Janiya was on a voyage to find out what happened to her dear younger brother. He was supposed to return home a few days ago from a war going on in Thebes, but after hearing no news about him, she wanted to know where he had disappeared off to. She found herself a crew of very strong people and got all the equipment she needed for this journey. There was no stopping until she completed her goal to find her missing her brother. “Janiya, can we please take a break? My arms are starting to hurt.” said one of her crew members. All the crew members on this journey had a job to do and had no time to take any breaks. “We have to find my brother and by doing that, …show more content…

It seemed like it was abandoned and no one had lived there for years. “We should start by looking for food.” one of the members said. They had eaten all the food that had packed for the journey. “If you see any people while you are out, do not anything to try to harm them.

What are you doing here?”, said her brother. “I was on a journey to find out what happened to you, but it seems that I already have.”, she responded. She was in shock to find that her brother looked he was in good condition.

    I met Sevgi when she started working for my parents as a housekeeper. She had a sad disposition, a pale yellowish skin tone. She was very thin, but, surprisingly energetic and meticulous at her work. In her mid-thirties, she was a single mother of two teenagers. She told me about her early and unhappy marriage, her broken relationship with her parents and relatives. She was forced to marry before finishing high-school, and her husband turned out to be a womanizer who did not provide for his family. I sensed that her deepest wound was her aunt‘s (mother’s sister) adulterous affair with her husband, and, the events around this situation: First, her parents were in denial; later, they did not support her when the truth came out. Her family blamed her for much of the nonsense and disapproved her divorce as well.

Lovely buildings both high and low decorated the inside of the city along with several markets selling all kinds of foods, clothes, and jewelry.

    The Creature That Opened My Eyes Sympathy, anger, hate, and empathy, these are just a few of the emotions that came over me while getting to know and trying to understand the creature created by victor frankenstein in Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. For the first time I became completely enthralled in a novel and learned to appreciate literature not only for the great stories they tell but also for the affect it could have on someones life as cliché as that might sound, if that weren’t enough it also gave me a greater appreciation and understanding of the idiom “never judge a book by its cover.” As a pimply faced, insecure, loner, and at most times self absorbed sophomore in high school I was never one to put anytime or focus when it came time
