news anchor is never right, go to sleep!” As I snuggle into my blanket I turn to turn off the lights, my eyes suddenly notice white fluff falling outside the window, It was snowing! I get up and look out the window and watch until a decent amount of snow is present. My hopes of a incoming snow day were rising as I went to my parents bedroom and told them, “I can’t sleep”. My mother holds my hand and walks me back to bed, at this point it was about 10 at night. I start feeling sleepy with dreams…
eventually brings about the very circumstances he wants to prevent” (Shumaker). When she cannot express her feelings and sooth her natural imaginative instincts, she feels lost and searches for some way to create her own self-image. Being shut up in the bedroom has made her feel empty and she needs something to fill her time and her soul. This leads her to project herself on the wallpaper and search for meaning within it, perhaps because she believes she is as horrid as it is. She is as tangled…
take a closer look. Lock Windows Statistics show that most burglars gain entry to a home through an open door or window. Well, nine times out of ten this is true. The family in the television show left their bedroom windows unlocked. They also failed to repair the lock on a kitchen window. It is important to add functioning locks to windows, and keep all windows locked. Key locks add extra security to windows. It is also a good idea to invest in wire mesh glass windows, which are more…

James wakes up at 2:46 AM. He looks in the corner of his room and sees a tall shadowy figure. “No, you’re not killing me.” He yells standing and unlocking his bedroom door and running for his kitchen. He grabs a knife. The shadow follows and stands in front of him. “This is the last time.” He stabs the figure. The knife plunges deep into the figure, but as this happens pain shoots through James’ body. The figure…
bathroom equipped with coat hooks for coming in through the back door on a rainy day. 7. Office. The first room I thought of. I’ve given myself a small office, largely designed for daydreaming and counter productivity - it’s centered around a nap-sized window seat, the bottom of which will be filled with blankets and books. 8. Living room. A small living room, to be centered around the fireplace (which will be the kind that works with both gas and natural logs, depending on your mood). 9.…
replied, smiling. I headed home, cuts still on my face, and a plan still in my head. I ran a bath and washed my cuts, I thought about how I’d get inside the heavily guarded castle, I could scale it and enter in from the top, sneak into the king's bedroom, press on his neck to make sure he’s unconscious, put him in a bag, and then bring him here. I climbed out of the bath and put on a tunic and shorts, that should be enough for my trip to Bridgeport. I took a few daggers and knives so I would be…

For as long as I could remember the lock to my bedroom window had been missing. As a child that was the source to all of my nightmares. I was afraid of all the things that could get in and hurt me without the safety of the lock. Every shadow I saw was a monster and every sound that I heard was it trying to get into my room. I had a right to be scared, but what I didn't know was that I would let the monster in willingly. The older I became the more used to the missing lock I got. I actually…
The soft sounds of approaching footsteps outside my bedroom window intrigued me. Today, the familiar padding of cat’s paws took on a significant change I did not recognize. I knew that Scruffy, a scrawny alley-cat who eked out a meagre existence in our neighborhood, was late this day. Usually, this ageless creature made no other sounds as he neared my bedroom, but this morning he uttered several plaintive heart-rending cries and I wondered why. Scruffy is the name I knew him by, while my…
