What more can I do because I killed Paris? Oh my god Juliet, why are you so perfect? Your passed out body feels romantic. But the police officers keep us here stranded and they surround us in the hotel? * Feels awkward, staying here with all of you that is sleeping around the Capulet’s hotel.
They also act as executioners, tearing out the throats of animals that confess to treachery. The dogs represent the KGB, agencies Joseph Stalin fostered and used to terrorize and commit atrocities upon the Soviet Union’s populace. Orwell uses the dogs in his book, Animal Farm, to represent the KGB or perhaps more accurately, the bodyguards of Stalin. The dogs are the arch-defenders of Napoleon and the pigs, and although they don’t speak, they are definitely a force the other animals have to contend with. "Silent and terrified, the animals crept back into the barn.
They’re both persistent as they didn’t give up on their goals despite having fears of new places, loud noises, people touching them, etc. In page 8 of The Curious Incident Of The Dog In the Night-time, Christopher hits a police officer just because he touched him. And in the movie My Name Is Khan, when his sister-in-law takes him out to see the city, he started covering his ears and spinning round in circles when he heard loud noises and saw yellow colored objects. They’re also incredibility brave and courageous. They both went through so much.
Political analysts have described the Ceausescu leadership as the worst to be experienced in the communist nation outside Soviet Union. Ceausescu’s first and foremost concern was the expansion of his personal power and became fascinated with the idea of autocratic ideological dictatorship. His regime is characterized by political oppression, cruel tactics of social control, disastrous economic policies and a peculiar foreign policy. Records show that as many as 2 million Romanians were victimized by the communist regime between 1945 and 1989. 22 years after the fall of communism in 1989, Romania is still struggling to adjust economically and socially after enduring repressive measures for half a century, more recently under the cruel dictatorship of Nicolae Ceausescu.
Untold numbers were trapped in mounds of concrete, steel and earth for days. It was the country’s worst quake in three decades, devastating this region of small cities and towns, and producing tremors that were felt as far away as Beijing and Vietnam. Aftershocks continued for months, producing additional casualties and damage. This series is a memorial to the earthquake’s victims and a testament to the strength and resolve of the survivors and the massive relief effort.” (http://www.noorimages.com/index.php?id=2721) This source from Blenkinsop’s website really tells us how horrible it was. Blenkinsop saw it before his eyes, so he speaks the truth.
In the “Little Red Riding Hood” tales and variants, the forest is always the setting in which the girl comes in contact with the wolf. She is put into a situation in which she is not used to, and she must fight to survive. In “The Company of Wolves” it is explained to us that wolves are very clever. They lurk in the forest and prey on those that are weaker than themselves. Aside from the fact that wolves are conniving beasts, the narrator in this story warns us that the worst situation is to run into a wolf that is “more than he seems” (Carter 111).
My parents had just split up, and I had spent my entire holiday in my bedroom, only emerging to shower and occasionally eat. This was my time to get away, time to escape the horror my home had become. It was cold and very windy outside, yet the sun was shining so bright it hurt my eyes when I walked out my front door. When I walked into my school, I felt this panic wash over me like I had never experienced before, and it hurt. I started to sweat, despite the freezing temperatures outdoors, my legs went weak, like they had all of a sudden became useless, and my heart was jumping in a rhythm that made me panic even more.
However the government is corrupt, they are constantly being watched, consistent fights are happening between factions and the people are being told how to live.

Through the descriptions of our main characters surroundings in every part of the novel, it “looks” like a dystopian society. The buildings surrounding our characters, are demolished. Some still stand but are in bad condition and mostly abandoned.
It was an experience that would forever change my outlook on life, watching my friend going through this difficult time. It was a typical day back in my house in Sinkor; I was watching some TV programs, when I received a call from my little brother; “Sullivan has been arrested”. Words that I couldn't fathom, I jokingly replied, hoping this was some twisted prank. I checked the news to be informed on latest stories, sure enough a major story reported that two men were arrested for raping a twelve-year old girl, and under the caption was a photo of Sullivan, my childhood friend, with accomplice. Now I had been off to college for the past 3 years, I hadn't kept much contact with my family and him since, now and then the occasional phone calls from my parents checking up on me.
While this is a good philosophy I took it to another level, stopped planning for my future, and got into drugs other bad behavior. Then a little over a year ago I got into a really bad wreck, broke two ribs and should have been hurt much worse. This started a change in my thinking, and then last January I got arrested and faced serious trouble. My family did me the greatest thing ever for me and refused to bail me out. After sitting in jail for over a month, my wife still standing beside me something finally changed.
