We are all humans; therefore, we all make mistakes, but one thing that comes out of our mistakes is a lesson well learned. As I look back to all the things I've done, I regret the time I felt ashamed of myself. Easter of 2004 my godmother decided to invite us to her house for an egg hunt. I was told by my mom that the eggs had candy and nothing else. As we were heading out, I decided to bring my little purse, and we got inside the car full of joy. We were on our way to my Godmother's house for the egg hunt.…

I was at Muskegon Catholic High School playing a scrimmage for football. I was on defense playing the corner back position. The ball was snapped, the running back ran right and I ran towards him. I lowered my body, it was going to be a perfect tackle. I almost had him.…
We were playing Montgomry Bell Academy, MBA we called them. The first quarter wasn’t anything to speak about. By the beginning of the second quarter, the score was one nothing and we weren’t the ones winning. Anyone who has ever played lacrosse knows that even a one-point lead is a lot in this sport. It was the beginning of the second quarter and I was starting with a face-off. I crouched down in front of the other player, sweat dripping off his maroon jersey, our sticks were on the ground in front of us, with the ball between us, beckoning me to scrape it away. I was nervous because the other guy was bigger than me but I was excited to start playing. The ref yelling SET and blowing his whistle brought me out of my head and into the game. I stood straight up and pushed the other guy out of the way and tried to kick the ball away from him but he knocked me down. I…

I tried my best to make everything was clear and done for a reason. I felt like the mayor switching side was a little forced but it was the best thing I could come up with. Someone had to save the protagonist from being killed early so I used the mayor. I think it flows well and makes sense. I think the mayor was the toughest character to create because what I had him say and do was important because he could of being lying the hold time for his own good, I did not want the reader to think that the mayor was trying to trick the protagonist, so I tried my best to make that clear. Making the protagonist reassure the reader that he was aware of the mayor being a liar was my way to ensure the reader that the mayor was a good guy.…

This short story is about my descent into madness, or how most would say I became a sociopathic killer. Now, you need to understand before you judge. The definition of descent is an action of moving downward, dropping, or falling, my point is I didn’t start out like that, certain actions and events had to happen in order to trigger it.…
