The shrill of noise constantly attacks me as I reluctantly come to my senses. The colour of flourescent white floods my vision‚ only then to realize the colour bounds me. Someone shuffles next to me who coughs weakly vibrating the bed. Puzzled‚ my neck twists around to catch myself gawping at the same golden eyes. Occasional

In this heightened sense of anticipation‚ I can feel more‚ I can smell me‚ I can hear more‚ I can even see more. I can feel the weight of my pads. The sweat on the cushions‚ and how they seem to cool my chest and my back. This wet feeling would usually be uncomfortable‚ but

Oh thank the Lord above! It was finally over. Getting those colorful and very annoying little squares off her choppers means a new age for her! No more of the dumb nicknames. No more Railroad Tracks‚ Steel Smile‚ or Metal Mouth. Those idiots in her class can’t call her that anymore. Three years of being slave to the orthodontists’ antics. Three years of middle school finally behind her. Three years making the most awkward era of her life are in the past. People say that going through puberty sucks

makes it feel very peaceful‚ but yet there is still commotion going on with students walking to class. People interact with this space in several ways. I see people sitting on benches enjoying the beautiful surroundings‚ people studying‚ and also using it as a walkway. It is a very busy time of the day as several students are walking by me. I see people stopping to take pictures as they are coming through the plaza. They are the ones who are stopping

The Chase My wrists started to ache terribly as I trudged along the hard concrete road. Usually‚ when I took this route home‚ I passed all sorts of strange looking people. Where we lived‚ was an odd place‚ the people there were very friendly‚ but sometimes too friendly‚ getting in the way of your private life‚ asking personal questions that you didn’t really know how to answer. But on this particular night‚ a humid night at that‚ there was absolutely no sound to be heard. Not even the squeal of

has forgotten to go to the toilet and comes back in the house with you as you hurried collect whatever you ’ve forgotten. After all that hastle you’re back in the car and driving to the airport. Your younger siblings get bored easily and ask every five minutes whether we ’re there yet; of course you are getting annoyed with them and on the edge of an argument‚ when your mother relieves the situation by playing a game like looking out for different animals in fields. That keeps them quiet for a hour

Describe the scene at a train station It is 8 o’clock in the morning at Liverpool train station‚ the busiest hour throughout the whole day‚ it’s also known as the rush hour. Trains of all imaginable colours gradually draw to a halt‚ causing a slightly burned smell from the brakes. As the automatic doors fly open‚ continuous flows start of people shoving and pushing‚ rushing to get off into the already crowded station. The noise of the tannoy is hidden beneath the murmur of the crowds of people

I remember the events of 9/11 like they were yesterday. The enormous‚ burning building collapsing to the ashy ground‚ people desperate to stop the plane that was being flown at 600 miles per hour‚ the impact of when the plane collided with the building‚ the screams and cries for help‚ along with my fellow passengers calling their loved ones to say they’re not going to make it. Yes‚ I said my fellow passengers. My name Lauren Kriewitz‚ and I am a survivor of the treacherous 9/11 attack. My flight

The Fosdyck family is running through the airport‚ pulling our suitcases behind us. Parents all around us are doing a mental roll-call to make sure they haven’t lost any little ones along the way. Outside the huge glass windows that line every corridor‚ airplanes’ engines are heard. We board our flight‚ kids‚ parents‚ and grandparents‚ and buckle up. We stayed in a cabin on the beach. When I say beach I mean a rocky‚ windy shoreline with lots of ocean spray. My brothers played outside and chased

There are places in the world that take your breath away and make you feel alive all at once. Big Bend National Park is one of these places. Despite what many people think‚ Big Bend has more to offer than just deserts‚ cacti‚ and zero wifi. It is filled with beautiful wildlife and splendid mountains. My aunt used to live and work there as a park ranger and seeing her so little during the year made our visits over Christmas break that much more meaningful. One of those times sticks out in my mind
