Charles Dickens was a very successful author to say the least. One of the many things that I admire about him is his ambition. Charles Dickens wanted to live up to the standards that his father had always wanted him too. He was born middle class and his goal in life was to get out of the middle class and that is exactly what he did. One of the most remarkable things about his writings is how well known they are. I don’t think that I have ever read any of his work but that doesn’t mean I don’t know who Oliver Twist is or Ebenezer Scrooge. One obscure fact about Dickens was that he almost died in a train wreck.

The media is bad. The media makes people think that they are ugly. By the time a girl is 17 years old 78% of them are unhappy with their own body. This could be blamed on the media or McDonalds. I don’t know which one it is so I am going to focus on the media, because they are bad. The media provides an unattainable image for young girls. Basically, according to the media they should all look like Barbie. Barbie is just a dumb blonde with an eating disorder that is made from plastic. It is estimated that one thousand women die each year from anorexia. This can be blamed on the media. Many women feel like they should have plastic surgery to make themselves look better. Some of them do look better but when it is over done it just looks fake and gross. Low elf esteem should not be a reason for plastic surgery. Blame the media and Barack Obama because he is the root of all evil this country.
These witches are pretty much the same as the Puritan Witches. Anyone could be convicted of witchcraft. All you had to do is accusing someone of casting a spell on you, like turning you into a Newt. The Puritan witches were hanged for their crimes. The witches in this video were burned instead. The witches are burned because they are made of wood. Wood floats and so does a duck. So logically if he or she weighed the same as a duck… he or she is made of wood and therefore a witch.
In my trial I confessed and said that I was a witch. The truth is that I didn’t want to lose my life for a crime that I may or may not committed. I am still alive to cast a spell another day. The end
I really hate the 5k race it is just too long.
