On October, 20th our grade slept in cardboard boxes for one whole day! Basically, we wanted to feel like how homeless people feel like everyday. Before the night we slept in cardboard boxes we built our homes out of cardboard. My group consists of Cailin, Sarah, Katie, and Charlotte but since Katie, Cailin, and Sarah could not attend Charlotte and I were the ones who were gonna sleep in our house.

    Personal Narrative: My Experience At Norview

    The few things that I disliked was that each student was put into a group and put into an area in the home, I didn’t like the fact that we stayed in the same area for the whole week we have been there for, with the same people all the time. I advise next time to swap to different areas of the house to further experience all aspects and…

    National Junior Honor Society

    I was able to volunteer at a local bank that was sponsoring the Lake Park Elementary School for the holiday season. The school has over 300 underprivileged students between the ages of kindergarten and fifth grade. Most of the students at that school only have one meal per day. Along with other volunteers, I packaged bags that contained candy, toys, toiletries, a blanket, and a pair of athletic shoes. The bags were able to provide the children with goods that we often take for granted.…

    Personal Narrative: My Cabin

    There’s a little slice of Heaven in Marshall, Texas, where the sun shines through the pines and the sound of cicadas serenade you throughout your afternoon and the lake shines like a plate of polished silver in the early morning sun. When I first came to Camp Fern, I was on my own. Everyone else had known each other for at least two years, so I was the odd one out. In my cabin there was the usual sort. There was the popular one, the attention seeker, the joker, and the one you love to hate.…

    Personal Narrative: My Childhood Home

    I was 13 years old, just starting off high school, when I realized what this dark cloud that’s been floating over me for the past couple of months really is. It wouldn’t be until more than a year later until I seek out professional help. It started off innocently enough as just a feeling of constant emptiness at the pit of my stomach. It slowly turned into randoms bouts of extreme rage, where I’d take out my anger physically, not just on the walls and mirrors of my childhood home and not just on my family, but on myself. I couldn’t understand why I felt this way, why I wasn’t “normal”.…

    Personal Narrative: If I Break My Bedroom

    My ears ring as the old school bus screeches to a halt. We hop off, and a dry, winter gust smacks my face. Instantly, the frigid wind sends my nose running. Walking towards the back door of the school, I grasp the cold metal handle, open it, and slam a piece of wood underneath to keep it ajar. After we become accustom to the cold shock, Mrs. Cimenski, our director, orders us to haul the heavy wooden tables and a set of four lockers toward our designated backstage area.…

    The Nightmare Box: A Short Story The Nightmare Box

    The nightmare box is a short fiction story, dealing with a box or more aptly worded an enigma which is beyond explanation and beyond comprehension held within a box. I think at its heart this story is one that tempts our imagination it forces us to speculate about the box and its contents to consume us with mystery. The unknown is referenced so greatly in this story it tries to show us something inexplicable then capitalize on it by forcing us to focus on it. In the short story The Nightmare Box the reader is introduced to a box which seems to drive everyone who looks inside of it to strange and peculiar behavior most notably suicide and disappearance.…

    Volunteering at the homeless shelter is one of my favorite things to do. A few weeks ago, on a serene Saturday morning, my family and I volunteered at Loaves and Fishes. It was special to see just the sheer amount of people who had come out to volunteer on that Saturday. If you think about, they could’ve been doing anything on that Saturday morning. Yet, they decided to help give back to their community.…
