A Freaky Story - Original Writing Essay

I spent most of the morning stuck in my thoughts, why was I not grieving my parent's death? Why had I never noticed I was supernatural? Dominating most of my thoughts, did I have feelings for Jordan, my brother's best friend?

Freak the Mighty is a combination of both Max and Kevin because they are completely different people, neither of them are really considered normal though, they're considered weird or odd. Kevin is really smart and gets good grades. He has a birth defect, a disease where his body is too big for his organs, his insides are outgrowing his body which can cause him to die if it gets too bad. He is in a wheelchair and it's hard for him to get around by himself. He is only about 3 feet tall. Max is normal size, he isn't as smart as Kevin and doesn't have very good grades, he has a disease where he doesn't learn the same as other people, he looks different from the other people, he looks a lot like his father, Kenny "Killer" Kane and he gets bullied because of it. He feels worthless and dumb because of his past. Max doesn't really talk to

In the story “The Stranger” by Albert Camus, the belief that the themes of loss and retrieval are at the core of Mersault’s mythology, and that they illumine the notion of exile to which he returns so often is widely discussed. I however do not believe that either one of those themes has anything to do with the Mersault and the exile to which he returns to so often, rather I believe that Mersault’s own attitude is the reason for the exile he experiences in the story.

The Stranger The Stranger exhibits a society that has confined itself with a specific set of social standards that dictate the manner in which people are supposed to act. This ideology determines the level of morality, and how much emphasis should placed on following this certain "ethical" structure. Albert Camus's main character, Meursault, is depicted as a nonconformist that is unwilling to play society's game. Through Meursault's failure to comply with society's values and conform to the norm, he is rejected and also condemned to death by society.

I peered around through the rain, desperately searching for some shelter, I was drowning out here. The trouble was, I wasn’t in the best part of town, and in fact it was more than a little dodgy. I know this is my home turf but even I had to be careful. At least I seemed to be the only one out here on such an awful night. The rain was so powerfully loud I couldn’t hear should anyone try and creep up on me. I also couldn’t see very far with the rain so heavy and of course there were no street lights, they’d been broken long ago. The one place I knew I could safely enter was the church, so I dashed.

I turned toward the stairs, thinking about what the girl said, ‘The cutie is upstairs with you!’ How did that make any sense? It was only then that I remember I had a twin sister, a clone to anyone who was smashingly drunk. I rushed upstairs now, something in my stomach telling me there something wrong, very wrong.

Today I woke up and I was feeling happy! I went from the down-under to get my breakfast. It felt a bit odd because freak wasn’t at my window. I stayed up stairs with grim and gram and we started having a nice little conversation Suddenly, i burst out laughing. For no absolute reason. Gram had got a phone call a few seconds later, her face turned pale, and her eyes were watery. She pulled grim’?”

Albert Camus creates a series of characters in The Stranger whose personality traits and motivations mirror those that are overlooked upon by the average man. Camus develops various characters and scenarios that show true humanity which tends to have been ignored due to the fact of how typical it has become. Camus incorporates abominable personality traits of the characters, variety, consistency, and everyone’s fate.

Without questions, my sister and I ascended to the bedroom we shared. Powder Puff pink walls greeted us, but they did not assist in lightening the mood. Tears stung my eyes. After hearing more commotion below, I trudged over to Emma and enveloped her in a hug. To my surprise, she did not push me away like usual. We sobbed quietly in each others shoulders for a while, then separated. Thinking homework could aid in distraction, I grabbed and unzipped my

“No reason, you’re dad’s here to pick you up,” he said nonchalantly. Though I was confused, I went with it. I changed out of my uniform really quick because I was excited, I mean it was Friday and I was getting out of school early, who wouldn’t be? I had no idea what I’d be hearing in an hour or so. I met my father in the car and my older sister Ashley was there and so was my niece, Lani. It was a little quiet in the car, but since the day was a gloomy one, I figured they were just tired. I started to get a funny feeling though. My dad hates any of us kids missing school and here he was, picking us up early. Also, it was 2:15 and my niece didn’t get out of school till 3:30. These were small but significant signs that I failed to recognize then.

Freak. Worthless. Weird. You’ll never have any friends. I wish you were never born. Mistake.

In the text "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time", Christopher Boone suffers from Asperger's syndrome, a mild form of autism (QUOTE). This means he can be sometimes a handful for his parents. It is because of his condition that his mother leaves and his relationship with his father breaks down. But its not just Christopher's fault his parents are having a hard time. They them selves make some bad decisions that lead to each of them feeling frustrated and even forcing themselves to do some morally bad things (QUOTE). It is these things that Christopher parents do that we, the readers, cannot accept, despite Christopher's

There 's that look people get told they have, where they look like they 've seen a ghost. I want to know what it means to have that feeling but knowing you 're the ghost. It had been too long since I stepped foot anywhere near these parts of the city. After I turned and changed into who I am now, I never wanted to risk getting seen by any members of the family that runs this part. That is actually a good reason they have never been able to extend their territory any further. It 's kind of easy to hear when a gang war is about to break out for someone to gain new ground. And for me, it 's all too easy to join the defending family and help kill men you were once friends with to make sure you had the room to run fucking wild. I 'm made a few good friends, nah I made a few bad acquaintances by doing that. The men that run other parts of this city know me by who I am now, only one knows me by who I was. Maybe it 's for the best he knows Big Mac is against him, less likely that it 's me behind the mask then. God, in those days, before I grew up and found out doing everything I was getting told to do, without being told to do them was so much better, Claire not counting, she just above another voice in my head. But the freedom I have, may not seem like a good thing for the city and its people, but I love being me and only this me.
