Diary Entry Today was a most extraordinary day for me, something completely unexpected happened. Uncle Pumblechook, as previously arranged came to collect me from Joe’s house, to take me to visit a place called Satis House. It belongs to a lady called Miss Havisham who is very wealthy and important. It took us about 20 minutes to get to there. On our way I began to feel a little nervous and jittery. The prospect of meeting Miss Havisham for the first time was unsettling. There were rumors
Scarlet Letter Diary Entries Entry 1 I have arrived at my new home. The boat trip was very rough, even to the extent of making me lose track of time. That unclean, floating mass of death was merciful enough to let me be. Too many children have suffered and died on the way to America. I miss Roger a little bit, and hope he comes soon. I'm very lonely and I don't know what I'll do to keep myself busy. Roger was nice enough to give me money to live off of until he comes to be with me. There
My fourth text type is diary entries. A diary entry has a lot of power over someone’s privacy. It’s a daily record on whatever the owner wants. It can be on how their day was, or just how they felt throughout the day. A lot of people confess their secrets there. Just like in the book “Go Ask Alice” I decided to write three diary entries. Of course I pretended to be someone else, I pretended to be a girl that was sexually assaulted by her own father, so I would drink and consume drugs to numb the

Shauzia’s Diary Entries. 23RD of January, 1995. I must be blind, I thought I could get out of the terrors of Afghanistan by boat, boy I was wrong. My plan is to meet Parvana in 20 years, on the first day of spring, right on top of the Eiffel tower, but I didn’t know what to do, or where to start. After some time of pacing around the noisy streets of Kabul, looking for a way out of here, I managed to find a man who was willing to take me to Turkey for 10,000 Afghani. Turkey, I thought. That would
many of the negative aspects of his personal life, both mentally and physically. The relationship between Gregor and his father is in many ways similar to Franz and his father Herrman.

Gloss attempts to draw the reader into the story with Lydia's diary entry, giving a taste of the slang used in the 1800s, boosting the reader's curiosity, and showing a little of Lydia's personality and schooling through the character's writing: "6 April Bought the black hinny Mule today, $18, also the spavint gray as

Now we are on our way to America to stay with our aunt and uncle, where

For my diary entry, I have chosen to write from Neil’s pointy of view. Initially I chose the character Knox, but later I changed my mind. I realized that I am much more able to relate to Neil, because I think we have some things in common. In my entry, I will talk about Plato’s cave, and that Neil has been outside of the cave because he has found something, in his case acting, that is so particularly magnificent for him that he is unable to live further like he used to before, because he has been

Whilst there was no exact match, the first site that opened was http://www.sublime.net.au/chillout.html, 'The Chillout . clubbing is a planetary experience'. I had long been interested in the event of the techno-dance party, that total awesome experience where there is a collapse of individuality and a loss of individual boundaries as "I" become part of the collective

Everything has gone so fast as it has been months since I decided I wasn't going to see Dev anymore, although there are times when I'm debating whether or not he's still with his wife or if he's prancing around with another woman. But I've kept my promise. It's just gone ten o'clock in the morning here in Paris with this stunning snowing weather outside. The guilty was eating me alive, so I came clean about the affair to Laxmi also telling her that without the wife there, it didn't seem so wrong
Julie races to the top of the basement stairs, carrying little Abby in her arms. She feels weak and light headed as excruciating pain continues to shoot through her body. She knew she had to keep pushing herself if she wants to get everyone out safely. Placing her ear against the door, she listens for the assailant. Not hearing a sound, she slowly opens it and looks around the room. Seeing the coast's clear she runs to the kitchen door and throws it open. "You need to run to the neighbor's as fast
