Special Day There are not too many sunny days in the winter like today. It’s a little bit chilly‚ but nothing unusual for the weather in December.

Katrina Druffner Pre-Ap English 5th Period- Fig September 19‚ 2013 Jail Release The voice of freedom finally shrieks in my ear as the sharp piercing sounds breaks the lazy silence that hovers about the classroom on a Friday afternoon.
