Stone Greasers Narrative
“Charlie, get up you’re going to be late!”, said my mother Pam. It’s a bright and early Friday morning in Hillvalley, California. I kept telling myself just make it through today Charlie, just try to make it. After school I’m going out to party with some of my friends from our gang, we’re called the Stone Greasers. I had to run a mile in order to get onto my bus for school. Once I got on the bus I saw my best friend, Timmy, as white as a ghost. I approached to him slowly and calmly, “Did it happen again Timmy?” “Yeah, it seems like every day my folks try to hurt me or something.”
Most days I usually let Timmy stay with me so he doesn’t have to go through his parents fighting all the time. What seemed like forever finally came, we arrived at

    Outsiders Book Report

    This story is about a group of kids that are called Greasers, because they live on the East side of town, which is the lower income part of the city. They all slick back their hair with grease, and that's where the name Greasers came from. Ponyboy Curtis is the main character in this story, and he has 2 brothers, one named Darry, and the other named Sodapop. One night Johnny and Ponyboy are out at the park, and a group of Socs, the nickname for Rich Kids, came by and started beating them up. One of them stuffed Ponyboy's face into the fountain and tried to drown him, so Johnny stabbed him before he killed Ponyboy. The boy that he stabbed died, and so they went to a friend who gave them money and a gun to run away with. They ran away to an abandoned church, and one day Dallas, the friend who gave them the supplies came by and took them out to lunch, and when they returned the church was one fire. Johnny and Pony saved the kids inside, and a piece of wood fell on Johnny and he broke his back. He died in the hospital a few days later, and Dallas couldn't take it so he robbed a grocery store and took out an unloaded gun when the police came, so they shot and killed him. Exposition: The gang is introduced and the…

    Greasers vs Gangs of the 21st Century, Comparing and Contrasting

    The world of gangs has changed a lot since the 1950s and mostly it has changed for the worst. Gangs no longer sport the classic "greaser" look. Nor do they simply get into a few rumbles over turf. No, Street gangs today have developed much farther past a group of twenty people hanging out on the corner. There is much more to being a gangbanger in the 21st century than that. Most modern day gangs are situated in some of the larger cities such as L.A., New York, and Even in Vancouver.…

    The Greasers And Socs In The Outsiders

    In the Outsiders, What Cherry meant by “Things are rough all over” was that the greasers and socs have different sets of values, and many differences which lead to arguments about who is better. Cherry even stated, “You greasers have different sets of values. You’re more emotional. Were sophisticated- cool to the point of not feeling anything.” (Hinton 38). Neither side can understand the other which leads to the countless arguments and fights between them. The Socs role in society probably causes them to feel as if they are the most powerful and mighty in the town. However, the Greasers aren’t as high up on the social class. They are harassed relentlessly because of their “lowly” lives and they are belittled for the same reason. Cherry said,”We…

    Young Goodman Brown Symbolism

    It was a bright and sunny day, and the last bell of the day just went off in St. Mark’s Academy. The rumbling of kids and the slamming of lockers was all you heard as the first day of school was over. You could see class syllabi being trampled on as everyone stormed out of the school and into their parent’s cars or buses. I lived a few blocks down from the school so I was expected to walk each and every day, but it wasn’t a lonely road as I had my friend Josh that just lived a street over from me. Josh and I have been best friends since 3rd grade and you could barely separate us from each other. We loved to play video games and we would talk about them just about every time were together. In the mites of our conversation of who could beat who in halo, Josh stopped and starred at the old abandoned house on Maple St. I turned and said to him and said “what’s up?” he looked and me then back at the house and said i dare you to walk around that house. I looked at him and laughed and said there was no way I would enter that house. The house gave off a foggy feel that made the hair stand up on your back; it had two broken windows, and a front door that would slam continuously as the wind blew. He then…
