“Hey, Squid, play louder!” That's my music teacher Mrs.Turner. You could say that i’m pretty good at it but there is this person that sits next to me and he is super annoying and gross I think his name is joey because he looks like a kangaroo and he plays the trumpet but his gross saliva is getting on me. And on top of that he is really bad at playing. And on the other side of me there is another guy named Earl and his brother Randy. Earl plays the drums and well randy just sits by him and watches. Randy isn't the smartest person ever he is always touching me and poking me. And the teacher isn’t any better she's always saying how good they are doing and she’s always saying the I could do better and try harder. All I wanna do is be alone in …show more content…
I would just play the notes but I dropped my clarinet when I was running. Ok I have four straight stick that I found laying right next to me i'll use them for the M. I have to remember where these sticks are so I can come back to them if I go looking for more. I can still hear the t-rex in a distance. I'm gonna look in this cave to see if anything is in here. It's getting kinda of dark so I might need to find the right rocks to start a fire. I remember that when I was just a little boy and my grandfather told me, “ Son if you’re ever lost and need warmth or light this is how you start a fire. First you have to find the right rocks to use and they have to have to have flint on them and they have a glassy look to them. You'll know which one they are once you find them. Now if you have found them you wanna get some rocks (any kind) then make a small circle with them and find some brush to put in the circle. Then grab your rocks and hit them together really fast. Then one a spark flies off and goes into the fire pit then it will start.” Ok I can do this I see a little pond close to me that had some rocks by it. I just have to make sure that there are no dinosaurs near me. CRUNCH CRUNCH I don't see any dinosaurs near. Hey I found some rocks! I see
Question 3, (p. 1135): What are the “trifles” that the men ignore and the two women notice? Why do the men dismiss them, and why do the women see these things as significant clues? What is the thematic importance of these “trifles”?
Dorothy Allison's voice is one of authenticity, experience, and wisdom. This is apparent in her recounts of her mother's death and rape by her abusive stepfather as a child. She uses her storytelling as a way of sorting out her inner demons and memories of her broken life, “the [story] I wish I could make you hear,” as she says, because “the need to tell [her] story was terrible and persistent, and [she] needed to say it bluntly and cruelly, to use all those words, those old awful tearing words” (39, 42). She strives to get to the root of her own unresolved issues and, by her own admission, “[works] to make you believe [her]”:
Mrs. Betty Thomas is a seventy-three-year-old African American female who was born on April 17, 1942, in San Bernardino, CA. She was born into a family of nine children, six girls and three boys. I conducted the interview in the Thomas family home where Mrs. Thomas and her immediate family have resided in for fifty-five years. Her husband of over 50 years is deceased, and she misses him dearly. Mrs. Thomas is a tiny frame and short woman who stands about 5 feet, 105 pounds or less. She stands with no slump in here posture. Her appearance was very comfortable dressed attire, black socks and not shoes. Her home is well kept, tidy and scented with the smell of beef stew coming from a slow cooker on the kitchen counter. The home is in the midst of a working middle-class neighborhood; furnished with modern casual furniture, along with photographs of close family members spread throughout the living room and hallway area.
6th Grade: Mrs. McEversons. Moving up to sixth grade was really scary. Actually, not that scary, but it's a whole new school, new friends, and new, well, pretty much EVERYTHING, except for a few of my old friends.
The person I have chosen to do my essay on is Mrs. Gardner. Mrs. Gardner is my advisory teacher. When I first started school here at Potosi High School, I had a very difficult time adjusting to this new place. I had come fresh out of a homeschooling program and before that, I attended a small private school. I was scared that I wouldn't do well in this school. I was especially nervous about grade checks. I've always been a good student and made good grades, but I was worried that the stress of switching schools would get to me and I'd struggle. Mrs. Gardner has been encouraging and empathetic to me since day one. She has reminded me not to worry so much and that as long as I'm doing my best, that's all that matters. She has taught me
“Mom, just relax. Everything is okay; it isn’t what it seems. I’ll explain from the very beginning.”
“The Confessions of Nat Turner” , is a very interesting book, that was written by William Styron in 1967. This book revolves around Nat Turner’s life in prison, after he led a slave rebellion in 1830s Virginia. He also lays down the most gruelling facts about the wrongs that he has sinfully committed, which ultimately led to his arrest and later death. I think that this book would most be appealing to those who find themselves interested in the historical context of slavery or history in general.
The sun was starting to come out , I can feel my eyes getting heavy , I should have took that coffee to go made yesterday .

I got up from the bushes rubbing off the dirt from my jeans , all of a sudden everyone came running out
I push Grayson away. He gives me begging eyes. I grab his hand as I walk to Cameron. I pull them both to the couch. I sit between them. They both look at me scared.

M’s office the first thing I noticed was how small it was. The room was stacked with music, a piano and desk in the corner, and a line instrument on one side of the room. She welcomed me in asked me to sit down. She then showed me the instruments and told me to pick any of them to try. I did as she said but none of the them seemed to work with me. The trumpet felt to small in my hands, all of the reed instruments sounded horrible, and don't even get me started on the flute. Growing tired of this process my eyes wandered around the room. Eventually they settled on an instrument hidden in the corner. It looked like a tuba, but was much smaller and just seemed so lonely. I went over and picked it up. I asked Ms. M, “ Can I please try this one?” She looked at me and smiled and said, “ Of course, that's the Euphonium. It's like a tuba in the regards that it plays similarly and serves as part of the backbone of the band, it's sound though is much more similar to a trombone.” I lifted it up gently, the cool smooth, shining brass fitting perfectly in my hands. Slowly I started to play it. I'll never forget the sound that came out. Sure compared to a more refined sound it was terrible, but it was the sound of a student who had his instrument. Immediately I chose it and walked out with it. When I brought it home my family joked that it sounded like I was playing the noises of a whale mixed with a foghorn but I loved it all the same.
Mabel had been doing nothing but nervously muttering slightly-varied versions of the above statement ever since she and Dipper had talked with Coraline about sneaking out.
Mrs. Price’s reaction makes me feel five and even more angry. In the hallway, I am fuming so I push her. She doesn’t expect it so she drops like a rock to the floor. She starts to cry and says, “ I hate that sweater too and am embarrassed that it belongs to me! It itches and smells like tomato juice!” All of the sudden, I feel really bad, and help her up. I decide to ask Phyllis if she wants to come to my house for my birthday party. She says, “Yes.”
Short stories, Mrs. Sommers has problems with making ends meet every month. While running her hands through an expensive pair of silk stockings she decides she wants to spoil herself for the day. She buys the stockings even though this is usually something she would never do. The way she decided to buy the silk stockings seem like it was just done out of pure instinct.
