The burnt scent of roasted coffee tickled the tip of my nose just seconds before a noise so loud roared in my ear like a fire engine screaming through my bedroom. As I wiped the grit from last night’s sleep from the corners of my eyes‚ the bright light hit them. I slung my arm like an elephant trunk on top of the alarm to find the snooze button.

Bloody Mary ENG121 Bloody Mary “She’s hideous!” Said my best friend Brando‚ short for Brandon. “Just do it!” he kept saying‚ along with his brother Kevin. I was afraid. “Don’t be such a pussy.” Kevin yelled as he pushed me forward‚ almost knocking me off my feet and into the cross street at the top of our cul-de-sac. That was where the house stood.

She had a deep-set of blue eyes

Is That Orange Juice? As far back as I can remember Thanksgiving was one of my favorites‚ not for the fall decorations‚ or the plethora of Football games‚ but for the food.

It was the strangest thing I had ever seen; with tubes and wires. I’m telling you this thing was freaky. In my town we are very old fashioned; we don’t like technology or any sort of thing like that.
