Decent Essays
It all started around when I was seven. My teacher Mrs. Coquillard made us read a book named Dranage soon by Ty Hasan. I was heart broken I almosted even cried bc I was to lazy to read. I got up and walked out of the classroom. She screamed like the ususal that is why I disliked her strongly almost with a passion. One of my closed friends at the time kept tryna to tell me it was a good story. So I started to read the story and got so bored I fell asleep and started snoring. I thought Ive never read a story this boring, this is what I thought about most books. I went home and tossed the book on my floor and didn’t look at it until the do date.Then due date came and she ask every one how was the book. I didn’t even raise my hand and she called

It was and probably will always be my least favorite subject, nothing against you my lovely English professor, but I just don’t enjoy it.

    The pain began slowly, pricking me with its sharp needles only while doing barre in ballet once a week. I ignored it, believing it to be normal, common discomfort that would soon go away, typical thoughts of a dancer whose entire sport is centered around “good pain”. Six months later, it had escalated to the degree that every step I took felt like an arrow to my knee. Dancing had become impossible, and it was determined that I should be taken to the orthopedist. The bland, brown and beige lobby became extraordinarily familiar as I waited two hours to be examined.…

    Rileigh Deitemeyer A phrase I have heard a lot over the years is, “You look just like your father”, and each time my father and I would exchange a glance that to us meant, “little do they know”.

My birthmother was thirteen years-old when she gave birth to me and was taking care of all her younger siblings in a household with drug and alcohol usage. Not being able to care for me, she gave me up for adoption.…

If you are into fairytales and mysteries then I would for sure recommend this story to you. If you are into mostly realistic fiction and nonfiction I would still suggest that you give this book a shot.…

    When I was a child, every night before bed my mother would read to me. She would lay next to me on my little bottom bunk, while the snow fell in the Maine woods outside and the dog slept at my feet and she would read. The stories she read to me were almost always historical fiction, a favorite of both of ours. We read about medieval Europe, ancient Greece, victorian England, the roaring twenties, the world wars, anything before this century really. One day she read me a book called Brighty of the Grand Canyon, the story of a burro that got involved in a wild west adventure.…

For the children, the vast beaches served as open fields for soccer and football. The coarse sand an open canvas for castle blueprints and secret messages. Sand dollars switched hands as if they were currency.…
