Big Lots: A Short Story
We all remember when we were young enough to fit into tiny spaces. We were absolutely carefree. But being that young there was always something that we were afraid of. For me, that was dogs, bugs, and men with really long beards. This story took place in the middle of Big Lots’ parking lot in plain sight for everyone to see, it was extremely embarrassing.
One afternoon my mom, sister and I went to Big Lots to pick up a new blender as we pulled into the parking lot I saw something peculiar. A family was getting out of their car when a white dog jumps out with them. The strange thing about it was that they didn’t put it back in the car. They proceeded to go into the store, and as I watch them from my car was freaking out. I told my mom that

    Personal Narrative: Why I Get My Dog

    The first step of getting my dog began we went to the rescue to take dogs out on walks which I really wanted to do. While we were there I saw on a flyer, my soon to be dog without knowing it, a dog as cute as a baby bunny. It turns out, I was not old enough to walk the dogs, which was like emotionally being hit by a truck. I had to just walk while my mom walked the dogs, which was okay. My mom got more involved with the rescue, and one day while I was at school she was washing dogs, and the dog from the flyer was scared and ducked…

    Pitbull Descriptive Writing

    It was outside. The outside runs were nice and simple but yet fun enough for a cute dog to be widley entertained by it. On the ground were rubbery woodchips and colorful rocks. In each corner was a light blue, plastic kiddie pool which water rippled in the afternoon breeze and a green mailbox by the entrance or the run. On the other side of the blue kiddie pool there was a fake, bright, firetruck red fire hydrant so the dogs had a cute place to do their lawful business on. When we took quiet, little Sonya out into the run she started sprinting. Boy! Could she run! She scurried around that run like crazy and when she finally was out of breath she trotted up to us and flopped down. Then she started barking like mad. She had the weirdest bark I’ve ever heard before. Now whenever she barks I know that its…

    Personal Narrative: San Diego Zoo

    My mother had found a zoo online that was located in our city and decided that it would be fun to check it out. I had my doubts since I had always trusted well-known zoos such as the San Diego Zoo, but in the end I too decided it would be worth looking into. It was Saturday noon, when my mom, dad, and I left for the zoo. When we were halfway there we came upon a bumpy road scattered with rocks. My father told us that it was used in winter to keep the cars from slipping on the icy road. But I could only think of one thing at that moment, the immense headache which the constant bumping on the road brought me. I complained that we should’ve gone to the Humane Society. It was right near the house and there wasn’t a bumpy road we had to cross when…

Right before we got on the buses I had realized that I had lost the film camera that my parents gave me and I used for most of the pictures on.…

    Personal Narrative: My Dad Is Going Away

    A couple days ago, while me and Julianna were jumping on the trampoline, we started talking about how cool it would be to jump on it at night. We decided we really wanted to try it so we came up with a plan. Last night we did it. We had to wait until everybody went to bed. We were staying up in her bedroom so we were extra quiet when walking down the stairs. We got on our shoes and snuck as quiet as possible out the door. When we got out onto the porch it was kind of drizzling but we were brave so we decided to go anyways. We ran at top speed down the hill, threw our shoes off, and started jumping. That was when it really started to rain. After a few jumps, I looked up and saw something. I am almost positive it was a fox. I screamed and me and Juju scurried off the tramp and tried to put our shoes on. I was wearing my yellow mud boots with the broken zipper and I could not for the life of me get one of them on. I finally gave up and took off running with one shoe on up to the house. When we made it upstairs into Juju’s bed, we realized our jammies were wet so we slept in our undies. We had to hug each other because we were both shaking from cold and fright and it took a while to fall…

    “Stranger Danger”, Gone Wrong

    “Stranger danger!” I yelled with a broken crackled voice, as I ran from the people towards my home. I ran as fast I could, so fast Forest Gump couldn’t even keep up with me if he tried! The crowd of people cried out for me to stop as two ladies quickly jumped into their truck to follow me in hopes of providing me assistance. They asked me, “do you want a ride?”, “do you want to call the police?”, “are you ok?” and all I could respond was “stranger danger!” I agreed to let them give me a ride, but only if I rode in the bed of the…

    What Were You Afraid of When You Were a Child?

    But as I mature into my teenage years, I realised the folly and absurdities of my fears. In fact, some of them were so ludicrous like lurking monsters under my bed and demon-like character that brutally attacked anyone during Halloween. But at such a tender age, these fears seemed real to me and no one, not even my parents could say otherwise.…
