I stared at my slightly pale complexion in the mirror as I brushed my long blonde highlighted hair, a surging joy beyond any words was filling me as my dark blue eyes glowed with that radiance and I giggled. Getting up I shivered at the slight cold air thrashing down onto my bare wet skin while I hugged the towel tighter around my body. Showers always relaxed me when I was nervous. And today I was defiantly nervous. With a small excited and impatient sigh I looked to my clock for the time. “7:54pm huh? Hm maybe I have time?” I questioned with a playful grin “I so can’t wait! “ I squealed with delight and chuckled before glancing over to a picture frame beside my alarm clock. In the picture was me, a cute little brown haired blue eyed …show more content…
I knew she was pissed. Feeling the heat race to my face I turned away and grabbed my towel, covering myself as I avoided eye contact. “H-how long were you there mom?” I asked in a slightly timid and shamed voice. How long had she been there? I had no idea but I had an idea I was going to be lectured on how a proper young lady should act. With a clear disgusted look at what she saw, my mother sighed loudly and looked away frowning in frustration that her lectures had echoed off of deaf ears. “I've been here since you turned and dropped the towel I’m afraid to say” she said annoyed that she had been subjected to shush an un-thinkable show that took place in her daughter’s bedroom. Sighing myself I rubbed my eyes and dared a glance up at her “I’m sorry, I wouldn't have been so care free if I had known you were outside. I only did it because my bedroom door was shut I just” I was about to say before she cut me off with that hard toned voice of steel that she has. “I don’t care young lady for your excuses! …” she then gave me a soft look before she herself lowered her gaze, her memories more than likely stitching themselves back together after years of her effort to un-tangle them and destroy them. “There’s no guarantee that if she had been me and opened your door that she …wouldn't have relapsed… and attacked you.” She said softly.
If someone were to ever tell my younger self that I would one day be one of five siblings, I would have never believed them. Unquestionably, my siblings are an enormous part of who I am; aspiring me to become an intelligent and an affectionate human being. Life doesn't always hurl obstacles in your way, but when it does, it can turn out to be completely disparate and even fascinating from the original thought. At the ripe old age of eleven years old, I was expected to step up to the plate and take care of my new adopted siblings, David and Alysa. Countless responsibilities, circumstances, and a world of authority and gratitude have shaped me along the way due to that one event. Indeed, I am grateful that my parents went through with the adoption because even though I had an impact on my adopted siblings, they have propelled me to become an exceptional brother, son, friend, and student.
The family dynamics of the TV show “Married with Children” depicts a dysfunctional, but yet understanding between each family member. Their daily interaction with each other would suggest lack of communication that is taken seriously in the family unit. The husband (Al- Bundy) and wife (Peggy Bundy) presented a disconnection between the two of them steaming from the dysfunction in their marriage. Al Bundy attitude towards his wife appeared to be one with lack of an intimate and emotional connection. Peggy Bundy appeared to have an unconditional love for her husband, but seems to be missing the love that she wants from her husband. Their relationship seemed to be functionally dysfunctional as they move through their
Being the oldest sibling you need to be more responsible. Needing to balance out the immaturity that your sibling may have, and because they are not as mature as you are you need to be the “bigger” person and be more responsible and take on the responsibilities of a mature older sibling. For instance, I was in the car with my two younger siblings. I’m sitting in the front seat while they are in the back. My younger brother started to kick my chair. When I ask him to stop he began to mimic me. Now being the oldest out of the two I had to be mature and handled the situations maturely. For one thing, I had to set a good example for my brother who is also setting an example for my younger sister, so that would mean that I’m dealing with setting an example for both my younger siblings not just my younger brother. Therefore, I didn’t turn around and mimic him back or yell at him.
Kit sat in a corner chair, during one of her mother’s doctor appointments. Her mother was perched on the center exam table. Kit pointed out to the doctor that her mother was acting odd, belligerent, even though she was snippy before, her mother, was acting more childlike sticking out her tongue when the doctor tuned his back, becoming angry when she was asked questions.

The word migration can have a very different meaning to each individual. In the dictionary it is defined as the movement of people from one country or locality to another. I now see the word with such a deeper meaning no only is it the group of people moving, but in fact how they moved and the struggles they had to go through. Before I sat down with both of my parent and asked them about my “roots” I had no idea how difficult migration from Mexico to the US was for both of my parents families. I never took the time to listen to little details on how exactly they ended up in this country. After I took the time to listen to my elder relatives and parents talk about how they use to
She stood up quickly as soon as her mother made eye contact with her, an instant smile appeared on her mother’s face. Sadly, the same could not be said about her. Instead she looked frightened, perhaps, at least that was what she felt. It was
She seemed to fall back at such a question, but taking the step I wouldn’t take and grabbing my hand to pick me up off the ground, she smiled softly; holding onto me as tenderly as possible, “I know you don’t. I mean, all this time you’ve chased after me and blamed me for everything. It must go against everything you believe in, but listen, I’ve never wanted to harm you and I never will. You’re a part of me. If you want to blame me and hate me for making you live with me after all this too, you have the right to do that. For now, just know that I’m gonna take care of you and the next time I see Lalnable, I’m gonna thank him and then flux him up, I
I had come out of the changing room to see what my mama had thought about a black, sleeveless top I had picked out, and to my surprise the bitches were there talking to her.
If that wasn’t the understatement of the year, he didn’t know what was. He’s sick of living in a shithole with no money, and an abusive, drunken father. He hates Terry more than he hates anyone in the world, and that’s another understatement.
How did the cousins find out whose name was on the plates that they found in the lake? what page was that on?
"Maybelline, go to your room please." My mother calmly said. She was as shocked as I was but was surprisingly good at hiding it.
“Can you give me the address of where I used to live, and a picture of my birth-parents? Please.” Lou said in a soft voice like she was about to break into tears.
Everything was about to change, we wouldn’t order take-out on Sundays, it was a big deal, I was losing my best friend, the only father figure I have ever had so far. I watched him taking all of his stuff out of the apartment, I was getting more and more mad. Wasn’t our beautiful relationship enough to make him stay? I even blame myself I thought I had done something wrong, maybe wearing his clothes and leaving them all messy, I apologize and swear not to do it again, but it didn’t matter the decision was already made.
