everything find the lowest price and buy a couple of them. On our way there we talked about who was going to England next week. “I think you and dad should go,” I replied. But of course she disagreed and soon we were headed to the airport. The air smelled of fresh snow, and car pollution. The airport was HUGE!!! It was more than 100x the size of our house.

As summer came to pass underclassmen dragged there slowly yet surely feet right into the two story Texas building of Memorial high school. “Finally the beginning of the end!” I said in a voice of excitement as I happily walked into my last year of high school. Reminiscing on how I survived those dreaded past years of public speaking I realized that all my classes were a breeze and felt as if I was walking on clouds.

From a young, I, Marylin Elliot, had the urge to break away from the grips of my socialite life. My father, Jared Elliot, was a powerful lawyer in New York City. My mother, Samantha Elliot, married a social class up and was the perfect housewife. From a young age they dolled me up and put me on displayed to their friends.

I step into the huge room filled with people dancing, drinking, and gossiping. The smell of champagne and wine hits my nose along with the sent of cologne and perfume. As I look around I notice the windows are draped with the most elegant red curtains and the place has dim lighting making the mood calm and a little bit romantic. A person takes my shaw from me and I thank him. I smooth out my gold and black ballgown made of the finest fabrics. I stand up straighter when I notice all the heads…

passions, her notable works, and her upbeat outlook on the industry as a whole. One of my favorite headshots! One of my favorite headshots! What inspired you to become an actress?

Johnny would interview all these famous actors, and I was always fascinated with who they were as people: what kind of clothes…

glared around at the group. He was the cruellest of the guards and had put himself in charge the moment the patrol had left Hogwarts. His beady, black eyes surveyed them, cheeks growing red. "Just one body?" he asked. No one spoke, the tension in the air rising. Michael straightened his posture, determined to hide the shaking that overtook his body. Beside him, his partner stiffened. His heart raced as the image of the little girl flew to the front of his mind, and he berated himself for…

Observation: The student body section of the football game was most noticeable on the Heritage side and all the students seemed to be in one homogenous clump, with the exception of one or two separated groups and individuals.
