Bark Lake Night Hike One night as I was strolling back home from a nearby convenience store, I gazed at the full moon and I remembered my first night hike in Bark Lake. It was an exhilarating experience. One Monday night, the full moon was shining brightly as our Grade 7 class embarked on a night hike. All was silent except the slight murmuring of the voices of my classmates. My friend Abby and I were terrified because of our irrational fear of the dark and were tightly gripping each others…

I grabbed my bags and ran out of my house. I ran out as fast as I could to my driveway. There was Emily honking her horn in her car. She waved her hands so I would move faster. But really all that was going to do was make me want to go slower to make her frustrated. Her face looked irritated, her eyes squinted into my soul. With her blonde hair held back by a pair of sunglasses. Yes haha! She's annoyed, mission accomplished! I finally got to car and opened the door to sit down into the seat. As…

I responded to Sunoco on Three Notch Street in reference to a suspicious circumstance call. Upon arrival, I made contact with Aundreal Kaywane Mccoullough. Mccoullough was walking back to the car when I pulled up, as if he was putting something back in. Mccoullough advised that he didn’t call the police. Roy Mccoullough then pulled up on scene and advised that Aundreal pulled a gun out on him at the Sunoco. Roy advised that him and Andreal was in a active dating relationship. Roy advised that he…

On a Friday night there was wisp of wind. A “BASH” of lighting. And a lost dog walking though it all. In the beginning of it all Sally’s owner had said “come on Sally lets go outside to use the restroom”. A couple minutes later when Sally’s owner was not looking and ran inside for a bit to eat something. Sally had ran out the other side of the fence that was open and disappeared into the forest 1 block away from her house. Sally had been strolling all around the forest for 2 hours…

So there was a murder across the street. Of course, I was one of those paranoid people on the street. But the thing was, I was just across the street of where the crime scene is. The police came to my door and asked me questions. I just told them I was at a party when the murder happened. But what they told was that that the murder got away and to lock everything, and be aware of your surroundings. Of course I locked anything I can lock, even I put a lock on my pantry doors! And I would keep a…

Railroad crossings may not seem that important to pay attention to you may think. They travelslow and they aren't like cars right? They may be different but they are way more of a danger than youraverage vehicle on the road. If you have seen pictures or videos of cars being torn apart by trains thenyou understand. But just because your in a car doesn’t mean a train isn't dangerous when your on foot.“Every railroad crossing should be taken seriously.”(Lesson 7)1So many people have lost their…

I was 17 years old when this happened, It was around the mid of august, and I barely came out of work with my sister that day (at Carl’s Jr ); Whenever i take the evening shift, I always end up leaving at around 12 at midnight. So my sister and I got into the car; I drove that night to our house. Whenever I drive I always like to listen to loud music and try to sing along, which is bad for me because I am not putting all of my attention into the road. While driving on E 56th avenue for a split…

Driving is not easy. It takes skill, knowledge, and preparation. When learning how to drive, there are three main objectives, the driver must know how to operate the car, must follow the directions and rules of driving, but also must acknowledge that others may not follow these same rules of driving. In a letter, written by Dave Barry, about this topic, it demonstrates how he decided to prepare his daughter for life on the road. Dave Barry’s letter, “A Floriduh driver’s guide for my teen with a…

October 18, 2014. The morning light trickled down through the dense canopy of trees that encircled the cemetery as I walked through the grassfield in front of the entrance. Only a few clouds blotched the otherwise flawless sky-blue. Passing the entrance that read “Los Angeles National Cemetery”, two signs stood in front of me: one with a list of floral regulations, the other welcoming visitors, while warning them of prohibited activities. Behind it, a black signpost read: “Blue Star Memorial, A…
