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).…
My hands shook harder than an earthquake as I walked down the fourth grade wing to the office. My fourth grade teacher, Mrs. Bilbrey, never believed a word I said. As I walked into the counselor's office, my knees felt like jelly.…
Back when I was a littlun, my daddy worked in the meat factory and mama stayed at home cleaning the house and making me my dinner. My parents wanted me to be a smarty, so they made me go to school. They also said I was a good singer, so I decided to join the boys choir. Me and my best bud Charles would go down to the river to skip rocks, but sometimes we would go play chicken on the railroad tracks. Sometimes daddy would say “Stephen, wanna come a huntin with me?” and I would tag along behind him while he hunted for pheasant. I never really listened to daddy’s rules, so he decided to send me off to some fancy boarding school. It was at this point in my life where everything started taking a turn for the worst.…
From the beginning of his writing career, Nathaniel Hawthorne has made several references to Anne Hutchinson. In fact, he even wrote a sketch called “Mrs. Hutchinson”. Because of Hawthorne’s apparent interest in Mrs. Hutchinson, it is entirely possible that he would use her as a template for one of the characters in his many books.…
I asked my teacher If I could do anything to save my grade, and he said “yes”. I have to do a theme, in order to raise my grade. Also, the last time we visited you, after you died I took Gone With the Wind. I felt like I needed to finish that book, because it would've made you happy. Since we won the rumble I wish we could get a prize, and that prize would be to bring you back from the dead. I really do miss you man.Sniffles*. Every time I go to bed I always think you’re alive, but everyone keeps saying that you’re not alive. I always wanted to ask you this question, how come you killed Bob? Was it because you were fed up with all this nonsense, or were you sick of everyone picking on us. If you didn't die you would be in jail rights now. It's all my fault I caused everything to happen. If I didn't jump out of that car to save the kids you wouldn't be dead. I can't say this enough man, I just really miss you man. Ever since you left everyone has been yelling at each other, and I’m so sick of it. I don't like violence, and you know that. Do things happen for a reason? Are family seems to be falling apart without you. Everyone is dieing Now I’m gonna go, and I pray that you will have a good time in heaven. The…
My mom leaned down and kissed my cheek, she told me to have a good day and reassured me we would get ice cream together after school. As my mom started to walk away my tantrum began. I could not fathom being away from my mom for an entire day! Tears began stinging my eyes as my mom’s figure faded into the distance. My classmates’ figures began to blur as tears spewed down my face and into my open, screaming mouth. The taste of salt from my tears only fueled the fire that began burning inside of me and intensified my…
Mrs. Snyder passed tests out and flipped mine over when she placed it on my desk. I flip over and read the paper. It says “PARENT CONFERENCE MONDAY NIGHT AT 7:00 PM.” I looked at the grade and my heart dropped, it was a F. I hear the bell ring and I was so mad at myself I just put my test away and stomped out of the room. That night, I heard my parent’s car pull in after school. “I have to show them, I have to.” As they walk through the door, I hand my test to them and explained what happened. I felt my heart drop and felt total regret for what I did. “I’m taking your electronics away!” my mom yelled, “Go to your room. Think about your imprudent decisions!” The whole house was quiet that night. It was Monday morning, school is back already. In 1st period, Mrs. Snyder announces that there will be a new unit test next monday and there will be a study guide passed around today. Mrs Snyder comes next to my desk. “Here is a chance to redeem yourself. Don’t forget about the meeting tonight.” That night, my parents drove to the meeting. That was the worst 45 minutes of my life. They came out furious and had faces of disappointment. To my luck, there was no lecture…
I was about to start a new school in september. I had two months. My parents made me go to the psychiatrist to talk about "my problem". So I went and told you about Beca. you told me to keep a journal to cope with my anger. I told you that I was only angry once so I there is no need for that but all I achieved was you talking another 30 minutes about something I really didn't care about. Something about me hiding my emotions and bottling them. So I promised to keep a journal. Just so I could leave. But then you also made me promise that I would show it to you when we meet again. So I…
While I was waiting, I looked around, and from the window, the sky became darker and darker as the cloud covered the last sunlight. I couldn’t breathe. In about twenty minutes, most parents were there. Then the head teacher started to talk about how seriously we did. She told in front of all these people: “she was the one who cheated teachers and brought her friends out of school. We teachers are responsible for your children’s safety in the school. But who is responsible for that once they are out? Jasmine, can you?” I was shocked. I did not think about that the teacher would blame me for all of this. Everyone in the office was staring at me, and my parents as well. I was ashamed, so ashamed that I wanted to hide, and I can’t stop my tears out. The teacher continued and talked to all of students: “I believed you because you are fifth grade. I thought you are old enough to distinguish right or wrong. But now, I am really disappointed at you guys.” We were still in elementary school, and we were so young to comfort ourselves in this situation. Most of the girls in our group began to sob like me.…
It had been a crazy morning as I ran all over my house trying to find my jacket and boots. My mom had been admitted into the hospital that morning for a massive headache and all I could think about was whether or not she would be okay. I took her to the emergency room that day before so going to class was the last thing on my mind. My father and sister had agreed to stay with her till I ended class so I was more at ease knowing she wouldn’t be alone. After running all over my house looking for my things I quickly gathered myself to make my train. I finally got to Penn Station with four minutes to spare. I quickly walked to where the rest of my class was as we waited for instructions to where we would…
Nathaniel Hawthorne has received the title of “American genius” because of his literary works such as “The Scarlet Letter” and “Young Goodman Brown.” Many critics agree that Nathaniel Hawthorne is a writer of “Dark Romanticism,” which led him to be famous because he ventured away from transcendentalism. There are many reasons as to why Hawthorne stands out from his fellow colleagues who were part of his movement from the transcendentalist to dark romantic. One of the reasons being that Hawthorne wrote about “how humanity was an evil creature, perpetually plagued with sin, guilt, and morbidity.” He also based his books and short stories on the Puritan community and how he portrayed that everyone had an “other.” His use of allegory and symbolism…
On March 28, 2017@ 2:20p I was asked to call Chandler Coney to Daisy Brown’s classroom to go home. I told Ms. Woods that she would have to come sign him out. Ms. Wood then told Daisy Brown that she would have to come sign him out. I had Jakyran Carouther’s at 1st grader at TES sitting in my office doing work. D. Brown came into my office to sign Chandler out. As she turned to walk out she made the comment that something pisses her off. I turned around in my chair a said that I was sorry but that the rules applied to everyone. She proceeded to come back into my office & get in my face to say was I talking to you, not I was not I was talking to Ms. Woods. I then replied, “I was not sure who she was talking to but she would get out of my face”.…

It was a typical first day of school. Rushing to get ready, finding the perfect outfit, cliche first-day-of-school pictures. When I got to school, everything was normal. Life was good. But, in a weird class I had called “Creative Learning”, we were given an assignment. It wasn’t a normal assignment. We had to write a horror story, and we were…
Only 2 tedious hours of school and I could go home and lay in my queen size bed with my body sized pillow because today was just not my day. As i walk into Mr. Schwantes class I see an egg, a cup filled with water, and toilet paper roll. I know right then and there we are doing a really fun activity. Mr. Schwantes was always a fun teacher. He was very helpful as well. I could always count on him to cheer me up. I take a seat and read the board and do what it says. “ Good morning boys and girls!!” Mr. Schwantes says as he walks in the room, “ We will be doing an experiment today. Please move all of your stuff to the back counter when you are done with your blog.” As i stand up to go put my folder and notebook on the back counter I start feeling a little light headed. What was wrong with me? My stomach aches and i'm really dizzy. After standing there for about 20 seconds i feel fine again. I place my items on the back counter and take my seat, I just couldn't get the fact that the big game was tonight and i didn't feel good out of my head. “Are you okay Kierra,” Mr. Schwantes asks, “You look a little…
