Most children DO NOT start learning how to read until third grade. And he’s not even a gifted student,” said the principal to my mother. The principal’s remarks left my mother despondent.

there is literally nothing I can do to pry their gazes from my roses. Every single visitor to have walked through my front door has transformed into this stupid, useless, lump of twitchy flesh. It 's as if a delirious ostrich 's soul possesses each and every man that enters my house. It 's disgusting. So, for the next hour, I sit by my guest on the blue sofa and try not to watch him twitch about. His oversized glasses slip down the bridge of his nose, but I don 't push them back into place. I turn
away at school most of the time. If she met them, my mother might say, “Oliver seems nice” or “I like that one” without much of an opinion...” (1029). The narrator’s parents do not show much interest in her life which can be a reason to why she craves lust from all the boys she meets to fill the void she has. This story symbolizes the female coming of age. This young girl soon understands how sex can be more emotional for the girls than it can be for the boys. The narrator explains the painful and

Tarot readings had always seemed a ludicrous act to him, but he felt his mother’s tarot readings had an especially ludicrous quality to them. He had no issue with humouring her, but he found it hard to take her seriously. It wasn’t just the fact that she was obviously stoned: the hoppy smell of weed was discernible through the smell of incense, and Mother’s eyeballs were lined with a warm, blood-red glow.

However, students and teachers alike would always seem a bit surprised on the first few days of class when I came into the room and occasionally expressed their shock.

it were, a superstitious hesitation in lifting the veil that clings about my childhood like a golden mist. The task of writing an autobiography is a difficult one. When I try to classify my earliest impressions, I find that a fact and fancy look alike across the years that link the past with the present. A few impressions stand out vividly from the first few years from my life but “the shadows of disappointments and getting hurt are on the rest”. Besides, many of the joys and sorrows of childhood
