What Happened

I truly feel the Seventh man has done nothing wrong. I understand the logic of survivor guilt, however truth is, he couldn’t have saved K. Stuff happens, it wasn’t his responsibility to save K, even if it was he would have potentially put himself in harm as well. I see no reason for the Seventh man to be held responsible by himself or others for K’s death. The wave killed K, not the Seventh man’s decision. It by default has nobody to claim responsibility for. It is for these reasons and prior…

Alfred A. Montapert once said, ”Nobody ever did, or ever will, escape the consequences of his choices.” What he said completely relates to me, as I learned a very important, and gruesome, lesson. The incident caused me to change my perspective, which was huge in my childhood. I’ll never forget the time that I received stitches, because it made me realize that my parents know what’s best for me. It was an ordinary Wednesday afternoon. My sister and I had just gotten off of the school bus, plum…

I looked around the room and thought that if this was real I don’t know what I would do. Everyone who was in the room, besides a couple others and I, had gotten on the floor making sure they were out of sight from the one window and the door. Some hid behind the desk in the back and others hid next to the bathroom door. I think on the inside we were all freaking out because this has only ever happened as a drill and not for real. But a few of them were determined to not show it and try…

listosaur wrote that the Royal Canadian Mounted Police looked at the mystery for a little bit. Despite a thorough search by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, no one was ever found, and the police dismissed the trapper’s report. The police wasn’t sure if what Labelle said was true. Is it possible that there were eskimos there or is this some story spun by a lonely…

It was the middle of the hottest summer I’ve ever experienced, that’s when it happened. We had just moved into a new house, and I guess you could say I was not so thrilled. I had created my life back in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Then all the sudden one day I was told I had to leave it all behind. Moving was not too catastrophic, there were a few moments here and there, but overall we made it. I have now been in the house for six weeks, and I have never felt more terrified, I can’t sleep, I…

“Don’t you wish something exciting happened, this town is so dull.” I shuck my head we had this conversation every day. She always found life to be boring, I on the other hand was quite satisfied with my routined life. “ You can’t tell me you haven’t even thought about it, something big to shake the whole town. I’d kill for a little excitement.” Too bad she never realized she’d have to be killed for the excitement to start. “ Under the State of Massachusetts, you are hereby found not…

to finally confront his parents and what truly happened to him when he was a kid. His parents have been holding on to a secret for a very long time, since Paul was a little five year old. In the book it says, “You were five years old, Paul...I…

noticed HUGE slashes in the top of the trash can. The plastic was thick. I wondered what had happened. I asked my mom when she got home from work if she had noticed anything. She said no and went out to go look. She said the lid was not like that when she pulled the trash can out this morning. I told her how that the neighbors were staring intently when I came home…” This isn't the first or last time this has happened to Andreah. Andreah Hall moved to Malaysia when she was 2 and left when…

to form inside me. “Cherry, Marcia, listen to us…just because we got a little drunk last time... ” Bob began as Randy was basically telling Marcia the same story. I could smell the beer on his breath. I remembered what he did in the drive-in, what Ponyboy told me about what happened to Johnny, and just about everytime he had gotten drunk. The tension infuriated and grew inside. I was not going to hear another one of his excuses. “A little? You call reeling and passing out in the streets 'a…

contact them and she would get back to her. Karen called her back and told her they were sending a replacement over and that she would have to meet with the HR Director to tell them what happened. Scott waited for her relief then went to her company and met with the Director and Karen and she told them what happened. Scott wasn’t sure who told her but they said she had to come back the next day. The next day Scott said she was led into a conference room where the HR Director, Faith Phillips,…
