Cheez: A Short Story

Improved Essays
Cheez-its aren’t allowed in the cafeteria. This is why. It started just like a normal day the sun was shining , there was a cool breeze, and there were some tiny birds in the trees. I walked to the bus stop. The bus came late as usual. I wonder what it will be this time. A old person crossing the street, a dog jumped out in front of the bus, but it was just that Jerry got stuck in the door again. As usual the bus was quiet ,well except for the girls in the back spreading rumors.
The bus jerked to a stop when the bus driver hit the brakes. I got off like everybody else. The school is gray, dull, lifeless. Even the steps were depressing. The girls were in their little groups walking inside, the boys go in pushing and shoving. I walked in quietly

    Silent Fields We had been hiking for half a day by the time we reached the base camp to Mount Fairfield. My feet were blistered and my clothes were wet with sweat. I looked like I had gone into a sauna with my clothes on, but that didn’t stop me from winking at the crew of women mountaineers that we passed on the way to base camp two hours earlier. I lit a cigarette as I walked; I deserved it.…

    During my sophomore year, I heard about elections for the president of National Math Honor Society, or NMHS. I was excited as I saw this as the opportunity I had to instill a love of math for my fellow high school peers. Since I had been at the top of my math classes during high school, I anticipated an easy triumph for me, so I imprudently stood idle while my opponents campaigned. Unfortunately, after the voting by my fellow students, I learned I had lost to a junior. I shrank down in my seat and tears formed in my eye, showing my humiliation.…

    We walked into the air conditioned building from the smoldering heat. This was the hard part; Jordy and I had to part ways and go to different classes. As we left each other the nerves grew inside me like a shaken up soda waiting for a fool to open it and explode. Praying that I had friends in my class, I walked in unsure if my legs were weak because of the anxiety I was feeling about who I was going to eat lunch with or the long hike I was going to have to take daily to Mrs.…

    The Sandwich I have searched endlessly to identify an aspect of life that embodied the core characteristics of honesty and integrity. Golf had me sold, and if it meant breaking out my grandfather’s old ping irons from the shed, well, then I was all in. The refreshing autumn air rested calmly on my face as I scaled the middle of the fairway, reaching for my sweet spot seven iron. Aligning my shot precisely, I darted the right side of the green leaving myself about a six foot putt. I had that swagger in my step as I approached the green, knowing that if I sink this putt I would capture a well deserved seventy-nine.…

    Prologue I breathed in the pink eraser of my pencil and immediately felt my face frozen as my thoughts was blank. I had no idea what to write about my family history since I had not known my father for years and my mother was very difficult to comprehend. The bus ride of noisy classmates made it hard to think of anything positive about my life as the heavy weight, large bus driver hit every bump or pothole in broken concrete roads. There is one thing I hate most than being named after a coin, divorce parents in high school, is being an heir to a group of witches.…
