eventful there, except there was a test. I go to second period, Mr. Ritz’s class. I get all my work done there. I play online games during activity period. I go to third period, Mr. Handshoe’s class. I talk with my friend, Timothy, and we mess around a bit. Then is gym, where we played soccer. I was not very good or helpful throughout the times I went out. I wasn’t sweaty much. After I did that, I went to English, where I learned/was assigned the personal narrative paper. I was getting hungry when Mrs

little benches to sit on by the fire, a cabinet for meds, food, cans, and other small food and water items. “Wow you really did get a lot done while I was gone, I think I may be a little out of shape, no wonder it took me so long,” Tom said, a little bit disappointed in

“Slow down, are you trying to get us splattered onto a wall” I shouted at him “Calm down, look at the iron giant it seems to not be able to see us anymore” I looked over at the giant. It was scanning the area it last thought we were at. After a little bit of scanning it could no longer spot us. Its frenzy was over and we were able to start moving again. We moved out onto another main road and before we started moving again I heard a loud crashing noise from the alleyway. “Did anyone hear that?”. I muttered

I felt the gentle warmth of the sunlight touch my face. The soft grass swayed in the cool air, tickling my nose.The forest air was rich and I inhaled it as I opened my eyes a bit, being met with the breathtaking forest around me. Sunlight was passing through small gaps in the jaded tree line, making them a lighter shade of green. It was so quiet, with only the subtle breeze brushing against the giant trees making noise. I let out a small breath of awe, forgetting almost completely about the dream

relaxed and from thinking about all of the drama and rumors that can quickly spread around our little town, because there has been a problem with that lately. We all sat outside quietly and just watched the sky for any birds. At only 9 a.m., it was a bit cloudy and the sky seemed a little darker than usual but it still felt almost the same but not quite. I decided to break the awkward silence by saying something. “You know Mama, my birthday is only a week away. I could use another doll, one with a bright

Storytelling can be found in every corner of the world. It is used to pass the time, tell of past or current events, and is the way that we communicate with each other. In Balzac and the little Chinese Seamstress, by Dai Sijie, storytelling occurs during times of hopelessness when life seems hard and allows the characters to live vicariously through the tales told. The narrator and Luo use storytelling as an escape from reality in times of desperation. The tailor is influenced by the stories to the

loads of his memorabilia, action hero figures, DVDs, clothes you name it, anything that was connected to this fantasy figure. As I regained my senses, I took a deep breath and nervously walked over to him. With every tentative step I took, a little bit more of my nerves kicked in. As I approached ‘Batman’ with trepidation I quietly asked him for a selfie which he gladly accepted. I wonder why I am so insecure? A year on

said Noooo!!!!!!! I said . The I went back in my room, climbed up my ladder to the top bunk and I had a melt down and when I settled down a little bit I went to get a tissue and then went to the kitchen and got another drink of water after that I went to the bathroom and saw that my face was as red as a tomato so I got a washcloth and put a little bit of cold water on it and washed my face. After I was done washing my face I went to my room laid down trying to get some rest, but it was so hard in

It was a warm day and I was watching the tv. When my mom opened the door, I hear the sweet sound of the animals. I see that she's looking for me and then she yelled from the blue door to turn on the news. Mom and I were very disappointed for what they had claimed. All of my family was scrambling to get ready for the tornado. I have been in a tornado before, except it wasn’t awful. I knew this one was going to be horrible. Later that morning I was shaking and trembling for what was coming. I

rest of the half. During halftime my knee was starting to get better so I walked to the locker room for coaches to give the team one of his famous pep talks. After the pep talk I was feeling even better so I decided to try and warm up a little bit before the second half started. As soon as I went up for a lay up I felt my knee pop again and at that point I knew I had to go to the hospital. I didn't finish watching the game and cheering my teammates on my parents took me straight to the emergency
