My grandmother raised me and my little brother and sister. She herself grew up as the oldest of seven children. Her parents worked very hard to put dinner on the table and she often played the “mother” role. She grew up to be a hard worker like her mother and is a believer in and an implementer of chores. I distinctly remember the first time my grandma left me the dreaded chore list.
M.L Bush said that ‘It was interconnected regional rebellions rather than one fluid movement’ because once the rebels had gone back to where they lived dotted across the North of England they would all have to meet up rather than go down to London in one group. Also the rebels outnumbered the King’s army 4:1 when they were confronted at the River Don. Instead of accepting the King’s pardon they should have risked battle once they dispersed they were no longer a threat to Henry. They were the stronger force but they tried to negotiate before they had achieved anything. This is another point towards poor leadership because there was no clear plan in how they were going to get their terms accepted only what terms they wanted.
I felt very uncomfortable being there any longer. I called my gram, she arranged for me to take a Greyhound bus to my Aunt and Uncle's house in Missouri, that way I could ride back to New Hampshire with them when they drove here to visit. I was excited to get back home and see everyone, I had been gone for almost 5 months. When we finally pulled into my gram's driveway we were met by my whole family. It felt great knowing how much they missed me, my Aunt, Uncle and their children.
Walter wants it so he could become owner of a Liquor store, whereas Beneatha wants to go to go school to become a doctor. Mama gives him the remaining $6,500 of the insurance money, telling him to deposit $3,000 for Beneatha’s education and to keep the last $3,500. Walter agrees, but we come to find out when Bobo arrives that he did not put the money in the bank for his sister that he used all the money for the liquor store and that Willy Harris run off with it all. When this happens during the play it is tough to feel bad for Walter because throughout the play he has not been good with money from when his son asks for 50 cents and he gives a dollar and then has no money, or by him constantly spending money on alcohol. This also drives a very big wedge between Walter and Beneatha because she was entitled to some of the money that was lost during the business transaction.
The wedding is off and Luke moves back to Montana. Win thought after the wedding was over, he would come rushing to her for comfort, but he’s mad that she even told him.

And may the odds be ever in your favor.” She is chosen to go alongside the son of District Twelve’s bakers, Peeta Mellark. After the reaping, she and Peeta are sent to the capitol, where they are prepared to face the capitol, their people, and above all the Hunger Games. Katniss then goes into the phase of the steps called ‘Refusal of call/reluctant hero’, thus is when the hero, Katniss refuses to believe that she is the true hero of the novel. Believing in herself was an unimportant task because we see, Katniss being discouraged and frail, believing she will never
Elena carries out motherly duties despite the incredibly difficult circumstances of surviving in Altai labour camp. The family had been in the labour camp for months, they were all weak and hungry. It was Lina’s birthday and Lina thought that her mother had forgotten because of their horrific situation. But really Elena had organized a surprise ‘party’ in the bald man’s hut. Even though their situation seemed bleak, Elena felt that she should still carry out simple motherly duties, like celebrating her daughter’s birthday, to make Lina feel more secure.
“She said that my life is being subsumed by yours and that it’s as though I’ve joined some sort of eco-cult and you are the cult leader” (Beaven-75). When Colin contacted his family, he received a similar reaction. His plan was “instead of two three-day trips at Thanksgiving and Christmas” they would “take one weeklong trip for one holiday and stay home and relax for the other” (Beaven-82). His mother did not understand because “the train will run whether you are on it or not” (Beaven-82) and that his sister would be devastated that they would be missing his baby shower. I can only imagine what my family would do if I said something to them like Colin and Michelle did to theirs.
Some regiments revolted, turning their guns on their own officers rather than on the protesting civilians. Had loyal troops to Tsar’s government could have been brought into the city from outside events may have been brought under control, this option was seriously considered by Tsar and his advisers. But orders issued to General Ivanov to move his forces against Petrograd were cancelled, and the Tsar began to negotiate with the politicians in the capital. Nicholas opted for concessions to the critics of his autocratic government, rather than repression. He at first agreed to form a new government, answerable to the elected parliament, the State Duma, but the demands of the
They had stopped making the “stalemate” which means that no army was prepared to attack the other. As the ANZACS troops landed and attacked Turkey the Germans would be distracted and send help from the western front to support turkey, which meant that there were fewer soldiers guarding the western front. Therefore allowing Germany to be attacked and end the stalemate. Paragraph 2: In addition, the desire to knock Turkey out the war was another cause that led to Gallipoli. Via knocking out Turkey, a supply route to Russia was opened through the Dardanelles and into the Black sea, to supply England and Frances ally Russia.
