Hug

It was Sunday morning which meant that today we were going to to mall to go Christmas shopping.Mom was runing every where and it was a big mess. I asked mom “If we could wait a few more minutes because I just woke up and I was not ready.” She said”no,” because we had all morning to get ready but I fell asleep. I quickly got ready and we left to the mall. I was bored so I used my phone the whole ride there. We finally arrived to the Garden State mall, and there was a lot of people there I thought…

could feel the trembling of his heart against his chest that lifted me up along with him as he inhaled. From here. I could feel the necklace he had gotten me around my neck, warmer now. From here, I could feel his arm pulling me towards him in a half hug as if to hold me together so I wouldn’t spill. From here, I could feel my knotted guts fidgeting and squirming with anger and the heat increasing in my stomach. I could feel my limbs go weak. I could feel the red hot tears sprinting down my…

According to The Miami Herald, “Hoot is a rollicking a righteous story.” Some people say that “Hoot” is boring but this book is filled with plot twists, comedy, and relatable characters! “Hoot” is so much more than what you think. “Hoot” is a book that gives you a detailed background of every character in the story. For example, on page 3 the book brings up a new character named Dana Matherson. As soon as he is brought up the author starts bringing up what Dana has done in the past. Another…

I bet this story will scare the life out of you!” Nasirah exclaimed with joy. My two younger sisters and I sank deep into the soft, warm blanket that winter night. Nasirah was very crafty when it came to storytelling. I was only nine! Kids of my age could believe anything and everything narrated by elderly peeps! It was ridiculous how my older cousins always told us these weird supernatural incidents and made it nearly impossible for us to use washroom during nights.Who wanted to get possessed…

I have never been in a car crash before until...... It was spring break of 2007 and I was 4 years old. As a four year old I always loved to travel to see my family and when they come to visit me and my family in Oregon I'm just as happy. I was and still am not a homebody. "Sofia would you like to come with me to pick up your Aunt Katy and Grandma Pat from the airport? My dad asked. "Yes daddy!" I said replying with enthusiasm. My mom couldn't take me because she was busy cooking dinner and my…

It’s amazing how people can laugh a little louder, show love a little more brighter during the most difficult times. During the year of 1933, The Holocaust started. Imagine yourself getting caught from hiding and getting sent to death camps.Even in the difficult times people were able to find joy. When your going through a hard time, don't you just need a little air. “The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely, or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quite alone with the…

Some are healthy and some are very dangerous to their well being. If someone you know is crying out for help because they don’t know how to cope with the pain of loss, be there for them and make sure that they know their not alone. When you get home, hug your mother, father, and siblings because you never know how long you have with them. Everyday is an open book, so make sure you don’t leave the pages empty and full of…

volunteer sometime last week, the shyest person in the class came up and gave me a hug and thanked me for the help I had given her in math. This young woman had only spoken to me when I asked her a question. She never raised her hand in class. She never spoke to her classmates. I do not know if she has friends in other classes she talks to or if she is just alone most of the time. To have her say anything to me, let alone hug me, felt like a miracle. That was the moment I felt I made a real…

Why did you leave me? How can you expect me to live a life without your hugs? Without your smile? without your caring heart? You left me behind, Too soon, Too quick. You promised me you would be there, To hold me and cherish our last moments. But you lied. Those beautiful moments that passed so fast, Limiting my time to take…

The Moment Sarah Matthews looked out of the window of her single-story house from her window seat that overlooked her backyard. Her eyes began to fill with tears. Today marked two years to the day since she lost her baby girl. She can remember the day of when it happened. Like it was yesterday because the pain was still there. There was a look in her husband's eyes of worry and sadness. The prayer she prayed to God was, “Why?” Even though she had not gotten the answer yet, she knew that it was…
