"OUCH!" I yelled.

"Oh my god, can you shut up?" a voice said

"Yes totally, shut up" another voice said.

I flew open my eyes.

"umm..let us see...maybe because we are going to the beach today and, our bus is going to leave in about 22 minutes, to be exact" Meredith answered, after rolling her eyes.

"shit" I mumbled to myself. How can I be so stupid? the beach? How could I not remember. I had been waiting for this trip to come for almost for 2 weeks now. It was a 3 day trip to maycomb beach, and I was way more excited than anyone, well partly because it was the only 3 days leave we got a leave

I was ready to go.

I stepped out of my room , Jason was waiting for me.

"awww, thanks."

He looked around for a moment

"wait. Do you think I was waiting for you?...Meredith had to pee, so I got her back from the freaking bus." Boy, he was so annoyed.

With that I burst into laughter...just a great start for a perfect day. I couldn't be happier.

I have 5 best friends. Jason, Meredith, lucy, eva, and Edward. We got to the bus and settled ourselves nearby. Unfortunately I dint get a seat next to any of them, instead I had to sit next to these bimbo girls who talked about a new mac lipstick released in the market and blah blah blah. Fortunately Edward was sitting right in front of me, when he saw me looking, he turned back and whispered

"having good time, buddy?"

"yes, very" sarcasm showing in my words. He chuckled at that.

"whats so funny?"

"oh nothing..just seeing you feel so..er...bored..its kind of interesting."

"wait till I get out of this bus" I said out loud. he started laughing again.

With that I drifted off to sleep, but was awoken by a girl who was shrieking after about an

    Don Brown writes about "To Kill a Mockingbird" and calls it “a sermon on courage as much as anything else”. A passage that shows that Brown’s idea is true is when Atticus is talking to Scout after Jem leaves to apologize to Mrs.Dubose for killing her camellia flowers. Scout doesn't understand why Atticus continues the case when the rest of the residents in Maycomb county insult him for it. Atticus tells her "but before I can live with other folks I've got to live with myself. The one thing that doesn't abide by majority rule is a person's conscience"(Lee 87).…

    My eyes quickly sprang open to the piercing sound of my inner com making a very scratchy yet high pitched noise, that I had never heard it make before. Almost like someone was screaming,or maybe something. In the background of that horrible noise it almost sounded as if someone was in the shower, I sleepily began to step down from my bed and saw that my sister was lying in her bed asleep. Slurring my words I yelled and asked "Savannah! Do you hear that?"…

    I decided that despite the embarrassing situation with Atticus it would just be best to act as normal as possible. I knew it would be best to participate in the missionary circle as usual. Afterwards we all sat around the dining room, which needed some work, but never the less we went on. Earlier I asked Jean Louise to join us in hopes that, just like me, she would grow up to be a proper lady. There was also the idea that if she was there, the ladies would avoid the topic of the Robinson case.…
