Living room

“We’re moving to Florida”. We were sitting at the dining room table when they told us. t must have been a Saturday or we wouldn’t have been in the dining room and it must have been some time in winter, though I don’t remember the month. Of the twelve chairs positioned around the long table, seven were occupied: Two by my parents, four by my sisters and one by me. The table was the only piece of furniture in the room. The walls where white and bare except for streaks of lurid mahogany dye…

in return she would give me the basic living essentials. Carla showed me the room I would be stayin’ in and left to go check up on the food she had been cooking. I looked around the room. It was very plain which was understandable. Nowadays nobody had enough money to take care of their own family let alone a stranger. The furniture consisted of a bed, chair and cupboard all of which were made out of wood. There was a small window of the side of the room looking outwards to the neighbours…

I'm just a blue fish. I live in the living room of my owners house. I live in a small bowl with cool colorful rocks and a couple of plastic plants. Im sitting on top of a side table next to a picture of my favorite owner. She has brown hair and blue eyes. She's my favorite because she always gives me a little extra food when no one's watching. She also uses a fish net instead just dumping me while cleaning my bowl. Sometimes it gets a little boring being a fish. Most of the time I just swim…

never dreamed such a thing was possible. Not even Ruby had allowed him that. The most she’d ever allowed him was to wash her back at bath time, and that was it. This morning, however, was different. This morning, he’d elected to stay alone in his room and leave…

Have you ever been to Texas? Well, this was my experience going down to Texas. The Trip down to Texas was long a solid 8 hours I’d say. It was not a very comfy ride down there. My brother and I Matthew sat in the middle seats my Great Aunt (Grammy) slept in the back the whole time. Matthew and I both had 1 pillow and 1 blanket. But I brought my snuggy. My Mom and her Boyfriend took turns driving but Jeremy drove most the way there, He is a truck driver though. The Trip just to Arkansas felt like…

Juhee: Growing up, I was always afraid of silence. As a child, I was accustomed to the laughter and chattering sounds of my family members inside my house every day. When I walked out of my room, I heard pots clanging, rapid footsteps across the living room, and voices calling out my name. These familiar noises were the sounds of family that produces a sense of protection and inclusiveness. On the other hand, I dreaded the times when I was alone in an empty house, surrounded by silence. In the…

house. Having the court house close by is easy and convenient for the jail so the county can transport inmates without using extra money on transportation. Upon arriving to the jail, our class was greeted by the jail warden, Jeff Kyle. He took us to a room where all…

The Mundurucu were located in the Brazilian area just below the equator. Their living conditions were primitive yet functional. They resided in small village communities of about 50-100 people. Each village consisted of several dwelling houses for women and young boys, and a men’s house which was inhabited by males of around 13 years or older. The dwellings were made up of a rectangular hut with walls made of tawari tree, roofs of palm thatch, and doors of bamboo. They had no windows, simply…

with bullets. • We are currently looking for a house to rent here in Morro Bay. As you might guess, rent is high. We found an interesting home built right on the dock on the south side of Morro Bay. Tons of history about the house and area. The living room floor had a panel of glass so you can view the seals when they feed. Seals okay, sharks not so much. The house was fun to look at, can’t beat the view, but opted for a place without moisture issues. • Found another abode built in 1910. The…

Living in a sorority house with forty-six girls can get messy. It is a lot to keep up with and manage, and I can’t imagine how our house mom, Irene sleeps at night. Irene has a high-stress personality, and gets very frazzled when things are out of place. The other night our snack room and dining room was very messy. Instead of Irene having to beg girls to help her clean it up, I decided to take the initiative and clean the tables, sweep the floors, and take out the trash. Irene walked down as I…
