It was 10:30 pm on a Tuesday evening and I was sound asleep. Soon thereafter my alarm clock rang and I awoke to the sound of Chewbacca singing the national anthem. I opened my eyes and realized that I had to be at work in an hour and a half. The room was littered with darkness and I couldn't see a thing. I stretched my and yawned, however, it wasn't much of a yawn, but rather a roar. The roar shattered the windows and made the wooden beams buckle in the surrounding walls. At the time I wondered to myself, "did that come out of me?" I leapt out of bed, for I was gravely concerned and proceeded to clap my hands, however, the humming of the air conditioner echoed throughout the room. Now I was even more concerned, for it felt as if my arms had …show more content…
I got it, I'll run into the wall, for that's sure to make a clapping sound. 3.2.1. Go. I ran with all of my might and smacked into the wall and went straight through it. I regretted living in an apartment that morning, for a man in the room adjacent to me, was charming a king cobra with a flute. After he turned around to see what had happened, he screamed and the king cobra bit his right eyeball. I said to myself, "what in the name of Hitler's mustache is going on here!" I ran back into my room without looking down and discovered that the light had finally turned on. I ran into my bathroom and was confused as to why a giant note was plastered onto my mirror. The note said, "sorry for abducting you earlier this afternoon and turning you into a, well, you'll see- sincerely, Grey Aliens." I ripped the note off of the mirror and screamed! I murmured to myself, "I guess aliens have a good sense of humor, for my name is Tobias Rezk, TR for short." The mirror shattered, but the reflection I saw was forever imprinted in my mind. I was now a Tyrannosaurus Rex and no longer …show more content…
I grabbed a trench coat and managed to find an oversized top hat. After getting dressed I washed my face, ate my dinner and brushed my teeth. With my nightly chores completed, I ran outside and jumped on my motor powered unicycle. I fired her up and headed to work. On the way there, I passed a place I'd always dreamed of entering, The Closet, which is a local gay bar. I was never open about being gay, but always yearned to be. I was also scared of what Jesus thinks of me and therefore suppress my gay thoughts. As I turned my head to observe the bar, I went flying into the air! A fudging taxicab ran into me! I came crashing down to the ground without my top hat and trench coat, for they'd flown off of my body. When I hit the ground, my mouth stretched around the surface of a fire hydrant. The force of the impact loosened the bolts, which held the fire hydrant down. A powerful stream of water came shooting out of the ground and I yet again went spinning into the air! I was at least thirty-five feet above the ground, but luckily, my legs had never broken free of my unicycle's pegs. I engaged the stabilizing rocket boosters on my unicycle to combat against the tumbling motion I was set into. After it was stabilized, I engaged the jet propulsion system, but when I tried to turn it off, my efforts were futile, for the switch was stuck. The unicycle reached an unimaginable

    Have you ever wondered how creative you are, or about the urgency in independent thinking, or even about the fact that everyone’s own humanity revolves around it? Hands sometimes do things on their own in defense of creativity, or sometimes because of the lack of it. Hands must be put to creative use, and the human hand can’t be merged with technology, as that will kill creativity. Fire is primarily used to promote the burning of knowledge and thinking, and it achieves that by burning books. On the flip side, when used in the right place and when created by hand, fire can be warming and comforting.…

    Identifying one’s purpose in their odyssey is not always direct. Sometimes it requires extreme events, even tragic events, for someone to recognize what their purpose is. In addition, at times it may be necessary to trust the people closest to you, including your loved ones, to determine what your purpose is. These two circumstances were discussed in the short story I wrote, a spin off from Fahrenheit 451 which follows the story of Clarisse McClellan who was presumed dead in the novel. Clarisse did not have a purpose in the beginning of the story, however, by trusting her loving uncle, as well as participating in the things she enjoys, regardless of if they are forbidden or frowned upon, she found a purpose in her odyssey.…

    In my English class at Capital High School, we recently read the book Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury, and we discussed whether freedom is really free. In some countries there are people who don't have freedom at all for example North Korea is undercontrolled by their one and only government that will keep going on from the same family he comes. In the narrative Fahrenheit 451 it's a dystopian society because they can't have their own opinions, and they tried making everyone ¨equal¨ so there wouldn't be ¨chaos”. We all see things differently and that is good because we can decide to see things the positive way or the negative way.…

    My biggest enemy in my life, bigger than my older brother best friend; who burnt a welt on my cheek for taking too long in the bathroom, is gravity. Couple days ago, during one of my numerous Personal Flight Device (PFD) tests, I was reaching a new apex with my current prototype: 7 inches off the ground, a perfect 90 degrees up, when the right exhaust gave out on me like an old pair of stilettos. The unstable engine sent me tumbling into the earth, turning me into a loose ferris wheel. Around this time, I unhinged myself from my backpack straps and landed on my back. Years of watching my stoic father limp round the trailer made me think that his sour joints were an act.…
