Bench

riotous drum beating. Later, I learned that this was to signify us to go the church, which was held in our town's meeting house. I got to sit on one of the better set of pews, since Laura's family is considered to be wealthy. I was forced to sit on that bench for what felt like forever (but was around 5 hours). When midday came, we gathered together and sat by the warm fire, eating and talking. I even met a young man. He was able to give me a lot more information about colonial America. Here,…

because we all have them. This book takes place in Manhattan, New York where a lot of judgement happens. The inspiration that struck R.J.

We all gathered in the locker room with the coaches, and the starters names were already written on the whiteboard: Hiltner,…

been the whole game. My coach had told me to take the shot during the timeout, five seconds had been on the clock at that point, almost an eternity. Out opponents had gotten so cocky, when they scored to take the lead with 8 seconds remaining, their bench had run out onto the court forcing the referee to yell at them all, delaying the game. You know, I wish my coach hadn't picked me to take the shot. I’ve never done well under pressure. In high school I had to take the SAT three times in order…

Purpose of the essay “Salvation” is to inform the reader how the pressure of aunt and the adult had a…
