About me - Rebecca Hurt

And so I write, on top of reading, laughing, loving and living.
I always loved alliteration.

Enjoy my scribbles.

Entertainment > Movie Analysis Does Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End deliver where Dead Man's Chest didn't?: 2 of 31
Though I can't call myself a huge fan of Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, I must say that the movie was definitely an improvement on Dead Man's Chest. I suppose I must confess I can't really remember Dead Man's Chest. It seemed to be just a bunch of overly gruesome creatures running around killing people or trying to... More..
Food & Drink > Coffee Espresso Coffee: Discussed: 1 of 7
The roar of the grinder, the somewhat more gentle hum of the blender, the hiss of the steam wand; these are the sounds of my life, at least half of it. It may only be three afternoons a week that I spend working in a small coffee shop downtown, but it ends up being a large part of my life. I smile at the days when I didn't ev... More..

The trenches were deep,Full of water and mud.It was written in olden time,"the life of every creature is its blood"So the life flowed but the death filledThese ruts with which the earth was drilled.And I wondered at the masses of humanityWhose life was poured out in that day;How wars will come and come againAnd men will stand...

Religion & Spirituality > Christian Doctrine & Issues Is drinking a sin for Christians?: 20 of 60
Drinking is not a sin for Christians or for anyone else. Now, excessive drinking, drinking with no self control, is a sin for everyone. But the simple consumption of alcohol carries no sin with it. So often people want to place the sin in the object, rather than in themselves, shirking responsibility; they decide that the bee... More..
Education > High School Humanities How Internet communication destroys writing standards among teens: 18 of 47
Being a teen myself, I know first hand how Internet communication hurts writing standards among teens. At times I have to read messages from friends that simply turn my stomach. All lower case lettering, disgusting spelling, random punctuation, no punctuation, the list of atrocities is endless and it pains me even to glance a... More..

Creative Writing > Memoirs Memoirs: Dreams: 12 of 28
I found myself swimming, swimming for all I was worth. If only I could reach that long old dock and be safe out of this bright, clear gray water. Someone shouted to me from the shore that the shark was coming. Sharks have always been my greatest fear.I pulled myself onto the rocky beach. Not rocky like a Maine beach rocky, bu... More..
Arts & Humanities > British Literature Class consciousness in Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice: 1 of 2
Extreme class consciousness, as seen in Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice is something we very rarely deal with in modern America, perhaps almost never since the founding of this opportunistic, optimistic, un-aristocratic country. The fact that a man has made his way in the world through diligence and industry is admired and ... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Islam Story of the prophet Isa: 1 of 1
The Muslim prophet Isa is believed to some extant to be historically the same person as the Biblical, Christian Jesus. Islam being a strictly monotheistic religion, Muslims do not believe that Jesus is the Son of God as Christians do, but they do believe that he was a great and good prophet who followed Allah.
