Billy The Bully: A Short Story
Billy the Bully
I always hated school. I didn’t mind learning new things, or seeing my friends, or doing math and writing papers. In fact, I liked every one of those things. I hated school because of Billy, a mean, big, awful kid who bullied me every day. Once when I was in 2nd grade, he jammed a pencil right into my arm.
“Ow!” I yelled. “Why did you do that?”
“Because I hate your stupid red hair,” Billy replied.
I said, “What do you have against people with red hair?”
“Because,” Billy said, “people with red hair are stupid.”
I never, ever told anyone about him bullying me, because if I did, Billy said that he would find my house and kidnap my dog. So I just kept my mouth shut. Billy was also very big and strong, so I never tried to beat

    Damn I hate school! T o be honest “I never looked forward more to anything in my life” (Lee 15), but everything went wrong. My teacher is Ms. Caroline Fisher. I don’t think she’s more than twenty-two. “She … wore a red-and-white-striped dress. She looked and smelled like a peppermint drop.” (Lee 16). She began reading a very funny story about cats that wore clothes. When she was done, she wrote the alphabet on the blackboard ant asked me what they were. I read the letters to her and she got mad at me and told me to tell Atticus that he was teaching me wrong! Atticus never taught me how to read, Jem said I was born reading but Ms. Caroline must’ve thought I was lying. It would be so hard not ready, “reading was something that just came to me … Until I feared I would lose it, I never loved to read.” (Lee 18).…

    This issue of Living in the West explores the love affair we have with the great American Cowboy. Call them cowhands, cowpoke, cowpuncher or buckaroos, billions of dollars have been spent chronicling their storied history. With his Stetson hat, sunburned face, weathered dungarees and boots of leather, the cowboy has gone from a ranch hand to a blue color icon. In fact, America’s love affair with the cowboy has been around longer than the name “cowboy” itself. But I’m taking a left turn here because when talking about the old west, the only thing America loves more than a Cowboy…is an OUTLAW. I’m not referring to some 13th century, tight wearing, black-death carrying, tunic sporting, pan-pipe playing aristocratic…
