1. As soon as I opened the door to the apartment, I knew that my roommate had played party host all weekend long. There was a clutter of garbage all over the floor consisting of red cups, ripped black garbage bags, and empty beer cans and bottle. The sticky beer pong table was still set up in the middle of the living room and the water cups, filled with hairs and other fibers with it. The smell of hard liquor and massive body odor filled the room. One light was hanging from the ceiling with a broken bulb still left inside the socket. I found Summet lying completely clothed drooling on his bedroom floor, as I slammed the door he awake to my pissed off expression.

Exemplification

2. There are many ways that the university bookstore takes advantage of the students. The first great example would be the little price changes one small everyday items like paper that costs around 50 cents more than any place else. Other things in the bookstore are ridiculous as well, such as the little cheerleading outfits for preschool girls and babies. To order anything for a personal use is a complicated system too; you have to have a certain number of people who want the item or that item cannot be ordered. There is no student discount so you could go anywhere else and buy that item for equal or lesser price. The one that tops them all though is the amount they give you back for the crappy book you just bought eight weeks before.

Narration

3. The day started out just like any other day; I got up took my pills and headed for the shower. When I got there the water wouldn’t come out of the shower head so I figured my dad had tried a home repair and messed up when in fact the electricity had gone out and our water pump wasn’t working. Of all days for this to happen today was my senior picture day. Senior picture is looked as the final stage of become an alumni of the school since they don’t take them till two weeks before the end of school to make sure everyone that is in the yearbook is actually going to graduate. Since the water was out I couldn’t shower and no shower meant there was no way of washing my face or hair or brushing my teeth or any of the necessary steps to looking my best. I was furious so I went to school and wore a hat with my nicely pressed suit and used a towel to try and clean my teeth I was humiliated and felt so dirty in front of all my classmates. When it was all said and done, I was just glad to call it a day.

4. There are quite a few dull programs on network television. An exception to that would be Monday nights on CBS because the best show in the geek world comes on, The Big Bang Theory. The show follows four geeky guys that live in one apartment and their adventures with the outside world of normalcy. The guys are a bunch of video game playing, book smart, under-confident nerds who are all sort of chasing after the same goal, the girl next door. Penny is the girl that lives next door and is very attractive. At times she finds interest in Leonard, one of the four, and actually goes on a date with him but of course the date goes horrible wrong due to his nerd like behaviors and he is crushed.

Process Analysis

5. My roommate has a very peculiar morning ritual. He will wake up and wake straight to the bathroom. He then proceeds to brush his put his toothpaste on his hand so he can scoop it up with his toothbrush once for this bottom row and once for is top row. After that he will apply his shaving cream and wash his hands so he can paste his hair. Once he gets his hair in the perfect position for that day he applies a small amount of gel for an each clean smell and a little bit of shine. Then he will shave off his face and put on a small amount of after shave. Before he walks out the door he will spray himself with two different types of cologne, one four times and the other one over laying spray.
