Natalie Sterling, a seventeen year old senior at Ross Academy had just won class president and beat her opponent Mike Domski. Mike was the kind of guy that Natalie and her best friend Autumn tried to stay away from. The girls at Ross Academy were known as demeaning and “boy crazy.” One day, during the pep rally a bunch of freshman dressed in trampy clothing and started to dance inappropriately. The leader’s name was Spencer a girl Natalie used to babysit for. The flirty freshman called themselves “Prostitutes” or Ross Academy prostitutes. Not only was Natalie embarrassed and angry by Spencers action but, she was disappointed. When the principal and Ms. Bee the student council head were talking to the girls punishments Natalie barged in. Natalie explained how she wanted to have a lock-in for all the girls in trouble and any others from school who wanted to come, about feminism and women's rights. Ms. Bee and Natalie agreed that it would be a good idea for

While Jane was in Germany, she saw women carrying large beer canisters on their backs across snowy walkways. The beer was steamy hot and would splash onto the women's faces and hands. Many of the women had scars on them from the burns. Jane could hardly contain herself, ran to the brewery, and yelled at the owner. The owner did not care, and told Jane to mind her own business. After several years in Europe, Germany, and Spain, Jane decided it was time to do the dream of her childhood. She would return to Chicago and open a large home in an impoverished part of town. At last, her dream would become a reality.

I do, I think she just wanted to love someone, or in this case some thing like she wanted to be love. I think in a sense she wanted to also be like her mom, as all daughters want to be when they are little.

You're both positively gorgeous. I wish I were a modeling scout right now. I would recruit you both and give you my card and hurry you into the agency right away—oh wait, no, I am sorry. I am going off again. I just came here to apologize, but now you probably think I am more crazy, though now I’m probably just buzzing,” she chuckled to herself. “You know… I should buy myself a house here, gorgeous houses, gorgeous tall people, and faces. No! I’m getting sidetracked again,” she scolded herself, and her eyes flicked back up toward Gemma. “Excuse me, are you the owner of this

“Just for this brave act of kindness, I shall let each of you to pick out something to keep for yourselves.”The lady told them very thankfully.

Miss Dickerson was at the will of her kids. Twenty ten year olds made up her class, twelve girls and eight boys. Each kid more curious than the last, though none more curious than Miss Dickerson herself. Mrs. Dickerson had thought her daughter would merely end up a spinster, only for her to finally find love and lose it, marked a widow for life. That’s when Miss Dickerson decided to teach.

“Did you hear what happened?” Maria exclaimed. “Abigail Brown from our school died last night. Rumor has it, she was here after 8th period finishing up an essay, and as she was leaving the building, teachers heard a scream and then she was gone.” Stephanie was scared but felt a little glad since the girl who died, Abigail, ran against her for student body president. “Ha, that’s karma for running against me, I told her that was a bad idea,” Stephanie said while grinning. “This is serious Stephanie, her body was found in the main hallway of the north wing. Next to her was a sheet of paper that said: “You’re next, Stephanie Herron.” The lab report also states that in her autopsy, she had some sort of virus on her skin.” The bell rung, giving them the adrenaline to run to first period. Stephanie, who lost her appetite after hearing about Abigail, Maria, who had an uneaten energy bar, decided that she would give it to Stephanie when lunch arrived. Although the expiration date on the bar was dated two years back, Maria ignored the possible side effects that may occur and decided to give the energy bar to Stephanie anyways with a smirk on her face. After all, a little energy bar never hurt anybody, right? When entering her second-period class, Stephanie was stopped by Marcus Williams, her brother Michael’s best friend. “Hey I heard about the murder of Abigail...stay safe okay? We wouldn’t want that to happen to the school’s golden girl after all,” he said with a suspicious, yet protective tone. “Marcus,” Michael came running towards Stephanie. “Is he bothering you?” “No, he was just looking out for me because of the incident that happened to Abigail.” Marcus, who decided to go to class early for the first time in his life, left the conversation. “ He’s been acting strange lately. He’s no longer the Marcus I knew. Ever since he started hanging out

From page 108 to page 122 Miranda talks about her life growing up as a kid. Dealing with the negative emotions including fear shown on page 108 titled “Forge” paragraph one sentences 6-10 Miranda says “ There is a fourth presence in the room. It’s fear. The man is my father, the woman is my mother. I am the screaming child. The knife-a kitchen knife, silver, and bright-is my fear. In paragraph two Miranda as a 3-year-old asks her mother for a butter knife then proceeds to threaten the boy who said something long forgotten that filled Miranda with rage. Later Miranda on page 109 paragraph 4 sentences 10- 11 gives a reason she might be afraid of driving people away “I hear my mother crying that she's leaving for good. I am afraid, afraid of

The women were circled around a conference room, all calmly listening to Jan, One of the women from corporate, held the seminar. Jan felt like the office needed to have an all-women’s conference to talk about issues with women and the workplace. The behaviors that were taken place in the seminar were not surprising. The women were joking around and not taking the seminar seriously. Jan

We’re not the madwomen in the attic ,they get lots of play, one way or another ,We’re the quiet woman at the end of the third-floor hallway, whose trash is always tidy, who smiles brightly in the stairwell with a cheerful greeting, and who, from behind closed doors, never makes a sound. In our lives of quiet desperation, the woman upstairs

Miranda was just your average twelve-year-girl until her life was changed forever. Her mother had a boyfriend and would soon be a contestant on one of the most popular game shows, The $20,000 Pyramid. To make life even more complicated for Miranda, many relationships began to form and develop within her life. Throughout the story, she establishes clear connections with Sal, Marcus, and Colin.

¨Be back in a few minutes¨ said Brian Schrader of Point Pleasant, NJ. But instead he was back ten seconds later to his car with his wife and three daughters, Katie, Sarah, and Allie. He then excitedly said “Girls Girls Miranda Cosgrove is in there, in the restaurant! He had just gone in to get something but this is not what they had expected him to say when he came back out.

I didn’t realize Marina was the person narrating the first portion of the story. I could only assume after reading for a little longer. She could say her own name to pump herself up. “Don’t cry, Marina. You can do this.” Something like that so the readers can know her name before her name is spoken without context. I’m slightly confused with Daniel and Marina’s relationship; they’re twins, but barely know it each other and they seemed to care for each other. Maybe I don’t understand because I am not a twin and I don’t have any siblings. Maybe there is an innate connection I’m missing. Either way, it’s kind of confusing that he can care so much for her that he is willing to proclaim that he is going to help her.
