My mom wakes me up. First of all, I took my binocular. It is expensive but on my constant demands, or to be true requests, I am lucky enough to get it. I hear the siren and shouted “The jeep has arrived. Let’s go!” When I sat in the jeep, I hear someone saying “We’re not going to see tiger”. I know it is my aunt. She is telling this from day one. This time everyone has lost their minds. Aunt’s son warned his mom to leave her here alone and moreover her husband also told her to be quiet and stop crying. The journey didn’t start well. However, this was only the start. We had hired three jeeps. I sat in the first jeep which was the coziest. When the engine starts up, I thought we’ll reach early. Unfortunately, our speed was as fast as tortoise. The distance was 10 km which seemed to me like 100 km. Moreover, when someone asks the driver to speed …show more content…
When I woke up, I peered out of the window to check whether the pranksters are gone or not. They were gone, probably to find shelter as sun was shining brightly. This place is barren. I walked out and hear someone footsteps getting louder and louder. I ran and hide behind an ant hill. I am mince and can easily hide anywhere. Shadows approached and I saw my friend Tony. I was happy. We had a little conversation. He had brought games as he’s coming here for 4th time. I didn’t know his insane love for deer or he is so unlucky that he hasn’t seen a tiger yet. I played whole day with him. My mom also was stunned at all of a sudden appearance of Tony. Although, she was happy that she got someone to chat with. I played all day and went back. Cottage appeared to be daunting. The eerie atmosphere along with frightening noise made me had goose bumps. The wind acknowledged me of the forthcoming thunderstorm. A flash in the sky seemed to be a phenomenal activity. The wind was moving swiftly but storm was going to approach. I was asleep when heard noises of machine gun firing. I just only tried to ignore
My expectations of Blackpool were not what you would call high; in fact I didn’t expect anything at all. Despite this some of my expectations were met exactly, others were pleasantly surprising.
rainstorm, and was positive one was coming. The wind started to howl, so strong that it
“At this time in my life I lived in a very old town house, where I often heard unexplainable noises in the attic. One night, when I was about 11, my parents went out to a party, leaving me all alone. The night was stormy, with crashes of lightening and thunder outside. Having nothing to do, I fell asleep after eating too much ice cream. All of a sudden, my alarm clock goes off in the middle of the night, reading 3 o’clock. I’m wondering why ...
My dad told me just to sit quietly and wait patiently. I sat there for about seven minutes and so came a bigger one. You could hear it from a mile away, how heavy it was snapping all the branches. There it was standing right in front of my eyes at least 100 yards away. My dad finally grabbed my gun and told me to wait till I could get a good shot. Still my heart was bumping harder than before and I thought that this wasn’t gonna end well. I got my gun on the ledge and looked into my scope and
When I was 10 years old my father gave me a task which to the average kid wouldn’t honor but I did. My father told me to help him change the oil to his car, he couldn’t bend over because of his back surgery and I’m not of age to drive it to the mechanics. Now at this point in my life, the only thing I know about cars is that a Hot Wheels racecars only moves when you push them. So he began first by showing me where to place the jack and how to use it so I can lift the car in the air. Before I placed the jack he told me “always remember to pull the emergency break before lifting the car, so the tires lock”. Then I begin to pump the jack so the car lifts and My father stops me again and shouts what are you doing!? I said I’m lifting the car up
11:14 p.m.-I slowly ascend from my small wooden chair, and throw another blank sheet of paper on the already covered desk as I make my way to the door. Almost instantaneously I feel wiped of all energy and for a brief second that small bed, which I often complain of, looks homey and very welcoming. I shrug off the tiredness and sluggishly drag my feet behind me those few brief steps. Eyes blurry from weariness, I focus on a now bare area of my door which had previously been covered by a picture of something that was once funny or memorable, but now I can't seem to remember what it was. Either way, it's gone now and with pathetic intentions of finishing my homework I go to close the door. I take a peek down the hall just to assure myself one final time that there is nothing I would rather be doing and when there is nothing worth investigating, aside from a few laughs a couple rooms down, I continue to shut the door.
World War II was the largest war in history that led to countless lives lost and a complete change to the way in which wars were fought. One of these influential changes was the introduction of high performance ground vehicles in aiding troops. The most iconic of these vehicles being the Willys Jeep. This vehicle became one of the most iconic vehicles in history for America, and will forever be remembered by those who fought beside it. General Dwight D. Eisenhower, the President of the United States at the time, said “The Jeep, the Dakota, and the Landing Craft were the three tools that won the war.”
I woke when I felt someone continuously nudging me. “Scarlett, it’s time to wake up.” He whispered. I opened my eyes slightly and saw that it was Chris. I glanced over at a window to see dawn.
As we walked through the woods on the dark cold night in October we notice screaming of what we had thought to be the neighbor girl. We creep closer to the large mansion and climb the gates to get in the massive front yard. As me and my friends Kevin, Douglas, and randy reach the front door, we slowly creep open the front door, we hear screams and yells and very quickly leave the situation. We head back to the house for the night and decide that we will make a plan and return to the mansion tomorrow.
Good evening Sevasti, I really enjoyed your post because it was about an era that I am very interested in. I have never read Dorothy Parker's "Big Blonde", but from what you have explained it sounds like a very intriguing read that can be influential for this class. Ever since I was a kid I have always loved everything about the roaring '20's and people tend to forget the life women actually had to live during this time. Hazel was not wrong for believing that marriage would be the key to life because that level of thinking was ingrained into them as children. This is a great example of a character who is "defined by obstacles in life" (Lyama) because she let's marriage, drinking and death define who she is and allows them to grow into these enormous
My mom woke me the following morning. She had decided to bring me breakfast in bed...
One of the biggest, positive impacts in my life, came from Jeeps. To me, my Jeeps are not just boring, old vehicles, it’s much more than that, they are an amazing tool that is used for much more than just transportation. One of the most common reasons I use my Jeep for, is to clear my head, the simple act of driving brings me at peace. The greatest reason, anyone would use a Jeep for is entertainment, by mostly driving around in the middle of nowhere and trying to go over big hills, boulders, or any obstacle that stands in front of them. Jeeps and the drivers also bring a sense of community with them wherever they go. With each Jeep owner I’ve met share the same feeling towards the community, on the road and off the road. Jeeps are one of the most important aspects to my life because they provide me with peace, entertainment, and community.
The alarm emits an ear-piercing screech, colliding with my ear drums waking me up. That is the only way I am able to wake up in the morning. I tiptoed across the room, planked with woods that make squeaky noises when you step on them--they are the worst. It is almost impossible to make it through without commotion and waking up my sleep deprived parents. After I have mentally prepared myself for the day ahead, I approach my drawer and concoct what I will be wearing today.
It was dark that night, I was nervous that this dreadful day was going to get worse. Sunday, October 23, 1998 I wanted to start writing this to tell about the weird things i’m starting to see in this new neighborhood. Gradually I keep seeing pots and pans on the sink suddenly move to the floor. I would ask my sister but she is out with my mom and dad getting the Halloween costumes. When they got home I didn’t tell them what I saw because i've seen Halloween movies and I have to have dissimulation otherwise the ghost will come out and get me first. October 24, 1998 I think I got a little nervous yesterday with the whole ghost thing. 12:32pm, Went to eat lunch with the family today and I go to get my coat. I heard the words furious and madness,
