Decent Essays
"Okay I'm here" I said pulling up to Southeast College. I got all my stuff, there I was greeted by someone. "Hey" she said It was Nichole, my best friend since 6th grade. "Oh, Nichole hi" "Hi, I got all my stuff here let's go get our stuff" "sure" While we were walking I thought something. "Do you know any more people here?" I asked "Well, for what I know all the guys are here." The guys were Jackson, Daniel, Chase, and Tim. I knew them since 9th grade, thanks to Chase. Me and Chase were really close. Everyone didn't think we were just

    A loud ring echoed throughout the house and cleared my hazy mind as I lay sprawled out on the couch. My thoughts slowly cleared and I remembered the messages from my phone. Yet another ring awakened me as I realized I had invited company. “Here” the text read. My plans for the night hit me like a sledgehammer to a nail and I sprang from the couch to grab the door.…

    By the time I got back up there the bell was going to ring and I would go down and eat lunch. The bell rang and we all rushed downstairs and sat down.

    After 4 years of patiently waiting and anticipating, the day finally arrived. Every year, the graduating class of School of the Ozarks gets the opportunity to travel to Greece and Italy for a nine-day excursion. As an underclassman, I always envied the seniors when Spring break came around, because of the amazing opportunity they had. Now, after a total of thirty-three hours of traveling, my body flopped on the cheap hotel bed in Athens, Greece. I buried my face in the pillow, waiting patiently my best friend to come in through the door.…

    “That was a bit rude, I’m sorry. I don’t mean to offend you but I’ve dreamt for years are finally living in the real world and I guess I’m just a bit disappointed.” You stared into each other’s eyes for a while before Stiles clapped his hands together, “Yep, that’s highschool for you,” he pointed to a door next to where you standing.…

    One essential part of humanity is helping one another. It promotes bonding, togetherness, and love. I have read times and times again in the US and other part of the world, where people stood to help other fellow citizens who have been victims of terrorist attacks, natural disasters, brutality etc. Besides the fact the recipient of a kind gesture feels a sense of gratitude and appreciation, there is a sense of fulfilment on the part of the one who renders the help. This is exactly how I feel as I relive this experience.…

    Fifty years ago, when I was a boy of fifteen and helping to inhabit a Missourian village on the banks of the Mississippi, I had a friend whose society was very dear to me because I was forbidden by my mother to partake of it. He was a gay and impudent and satirical and delightful young black man--a slave--who daily preached sermons from the top of his master's woodpile, with me for sole audience. He imitated the pulpit style of the several clergymen of the village, and did it well, and with fine passion and energy. To me he was a wonder. I believed he was the greatest orator in the United States and would some day be heard from.…

    I started to wonder why I closed myself off and why I had no close friends. As I continued down the sidewalk with the wind blowing in my face and the trees rustling I was revisited by my past. In tenth grade I had a very close circle of friends but sadly most of them migrated to India or other countries and the few that did stay drifted away from me because they shifted classes and found new friends. It was…

    My First Time Babysitting It was a dark rainy Friday evening, school just let out for the weekend and I was free except I still had one thing to do left, as I was doing a weird walk jog across the campus while trying not to get soaked just to get to the main building, as my phone started to make this weird ringing noise and obviously I got a bunch of looks. When I looked at my phone I saw that my dad was calling me and when I answered my dad told me not to walk home in the rain and just wait it out. Once I got to the main high school building, I walked through the maze of hallways and lockers, and finally just finally I made it to the front of the building. It was still pouring down rain when I looked out of the window, by this time the storm was almost through…

    My home is Moulton, Alabama. Moulton is where I have always lived. It has a few restaurants, most of them hardly ever have the business because there are a few favorites that everyone in town loves. Entertainment wise, there is hardly anything to do. It is hard to live in Moulton and not enjoy nature because quite frankly, if you were not outside "riding", hiking, having bonfires, or swimming in dirty swimming holes, you are at home doing nothing.…

    Playgrounds….playgrounds are a great part of childhood. They give joy and excitement to the young boys and girls that climb, slide, and explore them. The most familiar thing about playgrounds are the children and then swings. The annoying sound of the creaky chains moving back and forth. However, ever since I was 15 years old, it's haunted me to the bone.…

    The Boy with the Newspaper It was the first day of highschool... I was awake and ready to make new friends, meet new people, and most of all, get out of this house. I slipped into my beautiful blue dress that I had worn every year since I was little to my first day of school, most obviously I mended it and changed it up so it would still fit me every year. I was proud of my dress, it had once shone bright one but has now faded like my childhood as I refuse to let go.…
