“No, you have support from your parents’ and_” Then it hit me. There was a reason why she didn’t tell me this. Memories of our first days, the days when I hated her. My feelings were different. “So what do you work as?” I ask her. “I paint,” she says still blushing. “Impressive” I smile at her. At the same time I’m hating myself so much, you can’t really erase the past no matter how hard you wish to. "I’m_” I stop myself this is so hard. The word sorry won’t come out from my lips. “There is something that I don’t show to many people, I want you to see something” she says and takes me wheelchair. She opens the door to the basement. (Song for this part: Outer Space/Carry on – 5seconds of summer) It’s dark but I can smell the fresh paint. …show more content…
“This is beautiful, so” I gasp. I see the celling, it’s blue. A dark universe with many stars and planets. I’m impressed. One of the four walls catches my attention. There is a dark cloud over a girl with a black umbrella. You can only the girl’s back and a long path. I see this one for a long …show more content…
Her finger is on the black umbrella. “There was a time in my life when I didn’t have control over my own life. I felt so lost. School didn’t matter, nothing matter. I found every way to feel loved by any person that crossed my path. As I see it now I can understand that it wasn’t love but desperation. My dad left an empty spot in my heart that I tried to replace with so many men. One night I ran away with my English teacher. I was only fourteen, I thought that he loved me. I was so naïve to realize that he wasn’t searching for love. My mom found me before I could leave the city and had enough. We moved to Brazil to avoid the big problem that I had put myself into” My heart freezes, I don’t even dare to move one finger. All this feel like another language for my ears, Foreign and unknown. Is this the same girl from that story? Not that I judge her but it’s hard to believe that a person like her has been through a situation like that. There was a silence between us when we couldn't tear our eyes from each other. “But you changed” I say feeling like I’m elevating into the space when my eyes are on her sky blue
“Straining his eyes, he saw the lean figure of General Zaroff. Then... everything went dark. Maggie woke up in her bed. “Finally woke up from that nightmare. Man… I miss my brother. Who was that person that my brother wanted to kill?” she looks at the clock and its 9:15am “Crap I’m late for work!” Maggie got in her car and drove to the hospital for work.
Lily is thinking “how much older fourteen had made [her]. In the space of a few hours [she’d] become forty years old.” She makes this connection after she realizes that maybe her mother's death could have not been her fault and that it could have been T. Ray’s and he was punishing her for it. This caused Lily to pack “...5 pairs of shorts, tops, ... shampoo, toothpaste...” $38 and a map (41-42). By doing this, it made her feel like she had aged, feeling like a 40 year old.
So what can go wrong with a long so strong, a hold you so tight, a night so calm
Stargirl was not like everyone else in Mica High. She was a unique individual with no restrictions to her own identity. But when Leo stressed the fact that she was so different, she undertook the task to change herself, for Leo’s sake. Even though Leo was euphoric with the new Susan Caraway, her shunning was not ebbed. The change did nothing for stargirl but cripple her jovial personality. Stargirl shouldn’t have changed herself for someone else’s motive, but should’ve kept herself the way she was, as your own happiness should be put before others, and there’s always someone that stays by your side no matter the notions made of you.
Since a child, Stargirl had always seemed a bit… off. Her parents seemed to adore her weirdness, they even seemed to encourage it at times. To demonstrate, her parents called her Pocketmouse. They used it to so much that even she started referring to herself as Pocketmouse instead of Susan. But did her parents ever do anything about it? Of course not. She kept the nickname, until she changed it to Mudpie. Then Hullygully. And then Stargirl. But at the time, I knew her as Mudpie.
Most of the time love is our encouragement when we are in trouble, sometimes love can drag us to things we don’t want to happen in our lives. “First Lieutenant Jimmy Cross carried letters from a girl named Martha, a junior at Mount Sebastian College in New Jersey. They were love letters, but Lieutenant Cross was hoping, so he kept them folded in plastic at the bottom of his rucksack.” (p.1) The letters from Martha signed, “Love Martha” even though the letters were not love letters, Lieutenant Jimmy Cross understands that he doesn’t receive the type of love he hopes for from Martha.
I stare at Marie as Momma E lets her in the house. Oh lord! I tell myself shaking my head at Marie. Why did Momma E had to let this bitch inside the house, after Eli and I got into a heated argument.
Hmm this is weird and slightly disturbing. It makes you question life and all its wonders and secrets. Wow let me stop before I give you the wrong idea about me. First off I'm not some deep thinker who spends his life reading books, thats probably and accurate description of you. I'm not even alive, well at least not yet anyway give summer a minute or two.
Sadie – Ten minutes later, after the pinecone incident, the wrestling students were on the bus headed to a nearby town for their tournament. We wave goodbye to them as they drive out of the parking lot. I walk back to my locker and grab my duffel bag. The bell rings and I stand at the edge of the hall to avoid the traffic of oncoming students. “Sadie!”
Olivia and Sebastian, a lovely couple who ended up together in an unusual way were sitting in their living room not 36 hours after their first son was born. Olivia’s face was glowing, so happy to be holding her brand new baby. “Isn’t he beautiful, Sebastian? Our very own little baby, Arlo!” Olivia said, glancing from the child in her arms to her husband, Sebastian.
My throat is burning from all the yelling, yet not a word has escaped my lips. Can you not hear me? Can you not see my pain that is in plain sight, stated in the shadows situated so heavily underneath my eyes? I'm calling out to you; I'm waving the flag. I'm sorry I didn’t try harder, that I didn't try to fix what went wrong.
pavement looked really white. When I got to the main building I walked up to a
Hi there; it’s me, the girl you used to love. The girl you said was your forever, your one true love. The girl you wanted to marry, to build a family with, and to spend the rest of your life alongside. Yup, It’s me. I’m here to talk to you about something really important.
"I didn't know what to say, so I just took this breath in and in my head I'm running through a million different things. I think I took a little while because she made sure I was still
I never imagined love could be so complicated and tumultuous. Many children grow up with their parents as their role models. I was not one of those kids and often lived in shame because of my parents. My parent’s addiction to drugs and alcohol which were the focus of their life. Due to their addictions, many times I felt I was an afterthought and a burden.
