Answer:

This story revolves around two step brothers and their mother. One of the brother Alexis lives with his father and other brother is Aaron who lives with his mother. Both of the brothers have never seen each other.

Alexis returns to meet his mother since his father is going to India for some religious matters. When Alexis reaches the airport he meets his step brother Aaron for the first time.

During their journey from airport to home Alexis shows off his seventeen scars to Aaron and tells a story for each scar. Aaron is not interested in these stories and does not believes in the stories narrated by Alexis.

Alexis has a habit of using abusive language but his mother interrupts and forbade him to use these type of words but he continues using this language without letting his mother know as he then speaks in lower tone so that his mother doesn't notices his abusive language.

They stop their car at Burger King for dinner but Alexis does not eat anything except for fries since he is vegan. When they return to car due to some issue his mother starts crying and worrying about the problem but Alexis helps his mother in fixing the issue.

Write a essay about time management
Scilla [17]

Answer:

Lately, I've been thinking about the time that I waste by just sitting so me and my friend Jimmy decided to manage our time by making a list of stuff we have to do. At first we didn't know what we should add on the list due to being kids, so we went to ask my mom and told her about the list and she suggested we should add a reading hour. I came back to Jimmy and told him about the idea and he wrote it down. The next idea came from Jimmy, a chess club. Right as I said that my mom heard him so she said that we have a chess table at home and we could play chess right now if we would like to. We agreed on the idea, and in a few seconds my mom came back with a big chess board, which look brand new, the barely used type of new. We started playing and as we started I realized that I didn't know how the pieces were moving, so I asked Jimmy if he could teach me, and he gladly agreed onto helping me. As my mom, I always was a fast learner so in about 20 minutes we were ready to play. It was kinda intense, because we both were making interesting decisions, which were hard to counter. We ended up making a draw by Jimmy making me not able to move with my king and not giving me check. It was fun, but as we were going to start making one more match, my mom has told me it was getting dark outside and that I was supposed to go to sleep. I told goodbye to Jimmy and went to bed, telling myself ''Now that s time management!''.

Well I see it as an A for effort. But in in all fairness if you lost the game you shouldn't really be a sore loser because of it. In football games the people keeping score don't give the points the other team that lost because "they tried". I was on the cheerleading team and the other girls won nationals but I thought it was unfair because we all really tried our hardest and the thought we should get extra points. But I know that's totally ridiculous now.
