A Night to Remember

I remember the time of my life when I was a completely different person. This time of my journey was not too long ago. Recently, A setback of a friend has made me think differently, talk to people in a varying tone, and certainly has changed the way people look at me. A situation that made me an individual. Not too long ago, A few very close friends made me realize that I should be careful who I look up to, open up to, and certainly who I trust and have belief in. One of my close guy friends…

Read Mason Cooley once said, “Reading gives us some place to go when we stay where we are.” When I first learned to read I was in 1st grade. My first grade class was small, with small tables, a lot of students, but always had a nice smell to it. I remember trying to read there but I just couldn’t focus because the class seemed so lively. Going on through school, my teachers realized I wasn’t good at reading. It wasn’t until my 3rd grade teacher did I begin to understand reading. My 3rd grade…

then went to medium. I remember thinking that my Dad was a wizard because when he took this thing off over it, there was the option of going faster. I’d ride it with my sister, who was just a toddler, until it was time to go to bed. I now walk into the hallway, I have memories of running down this hallway, thinking that is was a hallway that never ended. I turned to the right and It was my bedroom. A bunk bed was next to the wall, and a TV was on the opposite side. I remember getting a kite and…

was so memorizing. The guy took me upstairs and we talked most the night and played truth or dare. I don't remember anything else of that night. The next morning, I woke up not at my house though at some abandoned warehouse tied to a chair all I remember was him from last night. Did I get drugged? How did I get here? Here he came walking around me all proudly like I was some sort of trophy he just got. All I remember was him saying “My, my, my what a wonderful little girl I got…

“There are three things all wise men fear: the sea in storm, a night with no moon, and the anger of a gentle man.” This quote by Patrick Rothfuss shows exactly what can be expected of fear. It is unpredictable, dark, and startling. In this way, fear is funny; it gives people different emotions in different situations. Fear is worry. It throws people into different situations, waiting for the reaction of worrisome. It sits in the waiting room at the doctor’s office patiently waiting to hear the…

A Book that Shaped Me: Remember Me by Irene N. Watts Remember Me is about a girl named Marianne who is Jewish and is living at the time of the Holocaust (1939-1945). Marianne has to leave her parents and go with other children on a train called Kindertransport (Kindertransport were trains that brought Jewish children to safety in Britain during the Holocaust).

this was not good, I remember hearing her complain about how “dirty” she felt carrying around a tumor all the time she seemed more relieved than the rest of the family when the surgeons finally got that thing out. I also remember the nights she was under the knife and I was stuck at my aunt's house where the only thing I could do was sit, wait, pray, and repeat till the moon replaced the sun and slowly everybody retreated to their rooms. With no one to talk to and…

the night he looked over at Mildred. She was awake. There was a tiny dance of melody in the air, her Seashell was ramped in her ear again and she was listening to far people in far places, her eyes wide and staring at the fathoms of blackness above her in the ceiling.” (Bradbury 39). She is wide awake, in the middle of the night listening to her seashell earpieces. Even when Montag is trying to sleep, there is still technology around him. Montag is on the train, and he is trying to remember…

will get to go swimming. While the kids are swimming the adults would set up the food for the night. Once all the food is done…

bicycle that had a loose chain. I remember him trying to get up and get to me, but a few adults that had witnessed the accident had told him to lay down. I paced back and forth thinking how am I going to tell my mother, my little brother got off by a car. My teenage years passed by so quickly. At this time I was into sports, basketball being my favored. I would be at the basketball courts night and day or I would just walk the block bouncing a basketball. I remember playing at the YMCA I was…
