Cell wall

I woke up straight out of a nightmare. I bolted up with my mouth open in a silent scream. I felt arms wrap around me and lips on my ear. But they didn’t give me comfort. Instead I became frantic, trying to get away from the arms closing in around me. From what I thought was to come. My hand connected to the person’s face and they released me quickly and I fled, running in the woods. “Murmur,” the things yelled as it grabbed me again before I could reach the woods. “It was a dream. You are safe…

practicing has no chairs but a small stage and a few small storage room for chairs and a table in the corner. If there wasn’t a stage, it would feel like a small empty gym. The stage has a huge picture of our Hmong president General Vang Pao hanging on the wall. There’s two huge door that leads you to a hallway with windows where you can see University street and cars driving past through the building. I sat down while my sister joined the group as they line up and the instructor start to play…

has their own wall, they have built and it is not until someone special comes along and removes the wall will you see the real person inside. In the poem “Please Hear What I’m Not Saying” by Charles C. Finn the speaker states “You alone can break down the wall behind which I tremble” (78). When the speaker says “you” he is indicating that there is a specific person who can “break down” his wall. Someone who loves and care about him. When the poem talks about breaking down a wall it is also…

I was told to go to the 200th floor of the Empire State Building; if I didn't do what the burly guy with a black fedora masking his face in my dream said, I would be severely punished. I just thought I had a bad dream! I was woken up by a chilly voice. "Where'sss the boy?" A raspy, inhuman voice hissed from the other side of the door. I was hiding behind a charcoal black leather couch at the back of the hallway in the furnished basement of a friend’s house. Yeah, yeah, Sean, you're a…

I looked out through the cracks of the crawl space. Goeth was coming closer, all shining black leather boots and crisp black uniform. One of his dogs lifted its ears and looked right at me. I pulled back, away from the wall. “We’re trapped. We have to get out of here.” I was almost choking on my own fear. “And fo where?” Thomas hissed. “ If we leave, they’ll find us in the barrack!” “ I don’t care. We can’t be caught here.” I pushed my way up and out of the crawl space. I gasped, filling my…

I was sound asleep in my bed when I heard something break downstairs. I pounced out of bed and grabbed a ChapStick as my weapon. I’m not quite sure what I thought a ChapStick was going to do to a robber but whatever. I was sprinting down the stairs, but I tripped over Crinkles the cat and went tumbling head over heels to the bottom. The ChapStick flew out of my hand when I went airborne and hit me straight in the nose while I was laying there. I got up quickly, pretending that falling down the…

The door makes a loud creak. I can hear the man come thumping down the hallway. A deep voice calls for me. I prepare myself. It is time. The door is slammed shut behind me. I take a seat in a big round chair. The man stares at me as he pulls out his torture equipment. A box, its contents unknown and a nasal spray bottle containing an unknown liquid. He instructs me to move to the seat closest to him. As soon as I am seated he tilts my head back violently, he grabs the nasal bottle and shoves it…

There were five cells observed while conducting the experiment. The five cells consisted of cardiac muscle, elodea (a plant), paramecium (a protist), rhizopus stolonifer (bread mold, a fungus), and Bacterial cells (bacilli). Each cell was observed under high power lens (except for rhizopus stolonifer) with a total magnification of 400μm and a dFOV of 400μm. The estimated object size, scale bar, and drawing magnification of each cell was found except for cardiac muscle. Each cell appeared much…

figure it out eventually. My writing process is like hitting a brick wall but once I get started I find my writing interesting. From the readings, I learned to write everything down in my first draft and not be ashamed of what I write. As you walk into my bedroom, the first thing that you see is my warm pink walls. The pink walls keep you calm and comfortable. Also you will see my flat screen television that is mounted on the wall and next to the television you see a poster like picture of…

at mother again and I heard the slap. Running out of my room quietly I peeked from round the walls, where I saw mother on the floor crying clutching her cheek. Father stood powerfully over her I could see the rage and coldness of his soul in his eyes as he turned and looked in my direction. I quickly ducked behind the walls where I faced the kitchen. There sat my gun, leaning against the peachy yellow walls still loaded from before. Looking at it I gulped swallowing down my nerves as I heard…
