As I look out to the lake I realize what I have done. I have taken my own life along with others. By others I mean I took my pride and others have come along with that.
The lake is so peaceful, very morbid. Life is a lot like a lake. At times, the lake can be wild and very bumpy like when being skied on or being occupied by boats. Then, at night when there is nobody on they’re besides maybe the teenagers hanging out in the water at night skinny-dipping. Other than that, the lake can be very placid and quiet.
The lake is also a lot like me. It can give and take lives. Water can help some plants grow and to provide a fun lifestyle for people of all ages, but it can also be a conductor for drowning victims.
The lake sits here quiet, bluish-green and flowing towards one side. It lays so smooth that it looks as if you could skip a rock on it for days.
The fish swim in the beautiful water day and night providing fishermen with something to do. It’s just another version of the water helping take a life or give life.
The fish are born in this water and provide for different life cycles in the depths of this blue body. On the other, hand it is a fishermen’s play ground. Sometimes a fisherman will throw it back, but many take it and eat it including myself. That would be thrown into the category of ending a life.
The night sky lies over the water and as I look into the endless lake I see beauty and life. The orange and blue sky seem to just go as long and the two bodies seem to connect to make this amazing ore that really makes one think about life and happiness throughout this crazy world.
Around the lake there seems to be green life in itself. In the murkier parts of the lake by the brim their lies cat tails and algae filled leaves. The frogs fling their sticky tongues towards the sky catching the lightning bugs. It looks as if the frogs are turning off a light in the sky or stealing a shooting star when they do this. Willow trees and long lawns off the lake houses sit freshly cut and taken care of well.
All the fresh smells of nature make me realize that life is important and everything is beautiful in its own right. So, whatever I have down and why I executed is coming back to sit in my stomach like a 30 pound hot rock and make me sick to it.

Rebuttal
You had your chance, you threw it all away
I need a break, was the right word to say
I found someone new, He’s better than you
I should have known, That’s the truth
I should have seen the signs, Of slowly drifting too
To the arms of another man, Wrapped around you
But your in luck, I’m actually ok
I am a lone rider, And this is what I say
Go Ahead! You devil woman, Get out of my life
I can go on my own, And find a new wife
You played me like a fool, I fell for it too,
The first major sign, That we fell through
Was when I looked at in that way,
And I didn’t even know what to say
I thought we had something, For a moment, this was true
Love was the first thing, that I got from you
But I want to thank you, Each and everyday
Because I don’t need you, And this is what I say
I need a break, was the right word to say
I found someone new, He’s better than you
I should have known, That’s the truth
I should have seen the signs, Of slowly drifting too
To the arms of another man, Wrapped around you
But your in luck, I’m actually ok
I am a lone rider, And this is what I say
Go Ahead! You devil woman, Get out of my life
I can go on my own, And find a new wife
You played me like a fool, I fell for it too,

And I didn’t even know what to say
I thought we had something, For a moment, this was true
Love was the first thing, that I got from you
But I want to thank you, Each and everyday
Because I don’t need you, And this is what I say

Flying High
Flying so high above the clouds, it feels as if I can never come down from this magnificent heaven. If I fly high enough, can I reach it? On the other hand, why would I want to pass up that beautiful landscape down there? God has really has his work cut out for him in making something so astonishing.
The grass is a beautiful green and looks like a flowing river of color as I fly over it because of the swift speed that I’m traveling at. Also the trees almost look like, they should be part of the of the landscape, like when they were just sprouts. The leaves blend in with the grass at an overhead view. The only thing separating it is the brown of the dirt and wood.
Everything is just in unison with each other. Each piece of nature feeds off of each other like a parasite off of its host. Like a leach ,who just cant get that last drop of blood out of its delicious body that it’s been intertwined with. My eyes are the same way with the earth, the colors of nature all coming together in one to form the stunning harmony that should never be messed with or ever harmed.
The animals know that nature is the most beautiful object in the world. The scenery cannot be duplicated, especially this one. As I fly over this amazing sight I will always remember this moment as long as I live.

Berkeley In The Sixties
Berkley in the sixties was a time of change, of wonder, revolution, art, music, and free- speech, among many other things. Important figures, such as Mario Savio, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and Allen Ginsberg helped lead a movement that changed the history of our country for years to come. To fully dissect the situation of Berkeley in the sixties it will take observation of literary evidence and film footage. Although these pieces of footage are what is needed in present day to piece together the times during that era, it is safe to say that the activism still remains an important issue today.
The first issue you is the role of government in all the activism. To find a central understanding a more civil way could have come from their style of handling things. The government decided to use force, in which to succumb to the activists. The use of democracy could have been put to an honest effect in considerable fashion. Take the civil rights movement for example. The blacks were technically free, but oppressed. It is agreeable that everybody has the own rights, which includes refusing to sell to certain customers, but it’s human decency. If a law-abiding citizen comes into the store willing to purchase food, then they should have that right. Others did not think similarly. Dating back to the times of slavery, blacks were seen as savage people and less than an actual human. If a black American is allowed to attend school and succeed, then shouldn’t it be fair to allow them fair treatment throughout other characteristics of society?
A second issue is the role of the activists during the sixties. Martin Luther King Jr. stated, “We learned to swim the sea like fish, but we can’t learn to walk the earth as brothers and sister.” In other words, we learned as creatures to work together when forming as organisms, but now we can’t as different looking individuals. Ironic, that the civil rights movement, provided a political baptism with the hoses, which provided for public violence. Activists want to bring peace and equality into the sociopolitical order, but yet, students of Berkley feeling oppressed, surrounded a car a flipped it, on numerous occasions. Is this peaceful thinking? Does this spread equality? Activists are at fault for drawing, and inflicting, public violence to get there point across and the abolitionists from groups, such as the government and Operation Abolition should find a happier medium than striking these activists with high powered water hoses and splinter bound wooden Billy clubs. A simple form of peaceful thinking and discussion in a court room or something of a related matter settled this. Though it may take some extreme give from each wing. Both the left and the right wing, swallowing their pride, could have found a just equilibrium.

Do kids like change instead of candy for Halloween?
Will I have kids?
Will I get married?
Should I get a house?
Should I settle down?
Do I look like a guy who settles down?
Do you want to go to this party?
Will I talk to that girl?
Will she even like me for me?
Should I mingle with the crowd instead?
Should I think so much?
Do you think that girl likes me?
Do you think she looks like an alien from halo?
Will I study abroad?
Will I visit Europe?
Should I just live my life?
Should I ditch my girlfriend?
Do I want to work 40 hours a week?
Do job opportunities come with my major?

Stuck Inside These Walls
Stuck inside these walls again
Nobody’s gonna win this fight
When the boys come tumbling in
Nobody’s gonna treat her right
She’s looking for Mr. Right
Somebody to call her own
When he’s wished away
She makes her way back home
Chorus:
She’s stuck inside these walls again
Looking for a way out
When she’s with him
She’s in constant doubt
As she sails along
Deep into a mood
She knows change
Wont happen to soon
She has a sense of loneliness
floating on her mind
If you don’t let it through
It’ll get you every time
Just be patient, don’t let it bother you
It will come soon
You’ll have your time to shine
Just listen to my tune
Chorus
Listen to me baby
Don’t choke on every word
If you follow down the path
You’re bound to get hurt
Steer clear of the problems
You feel inside
Look on through the temptations
Triggering your mind
Nobody’s gonna win this fight
When the boys come tumbling in
Nobody’s gonna treat her right
She’s looking for Mr. Right
Somebody to call her own
When he’s wished away
She makes her way back home
Chorus:
She’s stuck inside these walls again
Looking for a way out
When she’s with him
She’s in constant doubt
As she sails along
Deep into a mood
She knows change
Wont happen to soon
She has a sense of loneliness
floating on her mind
If you don’t let it through
It’ll get you every time
Just be patient, don’t let it bother you
It will come soon
You’ll have your time to shine
Just listen to my tune
Chorus
Listen to me baby
Don’t choke on every word
If you follow down the path
You’re bound to get hurt
Steer clear of the problems
You feel inside
Look on through the temptations
Triggering your mind
