raHe searched everywhere for those shoes, those perfect tan ones with that fabric flower that fit him just right. The closet, underneath his bed, in the pile of clean clothes he meant to fold a week ago. They were nowhere to be found, completely gone from the face of the Earth, leaving Cal Hampton barefooted and discouraged. It was only eight in the morning and his room was more of a mess than it usually was, plus, worst of all, he didn 't have a single pair of shoes that matched the floral skirt settled upon his waist. He bought it just for that damn pair, those adorable, dainty tan shoes, and now, the thing was useless.
The mother was seen in the office today by me again. It was a result of my calling her up yesterday that she showed up. Her dress was very simple, not what I espected at all.

The room is spinning. It’s hard to get a good look and what or even where the scene is taking place. Finally, the revolution ends on a face. Not a remarkable face. Just an average looking guy in his early twenties with a short brown fair and sad eyes.
“I know that in writing the following pages I am divulging the great secret of my life, the secret which for some years I have guarded far more carefully than any of my earthly possessions; and it is a curious study to me to analyze the motives which prompt me to do it. I feel that I am led by the same impulse which forces the un-found-out criminal to take somebody into his confidence, although he knows that the act is likely, even almost certain, to lead to his undoing. I know that I am playing with fire, and I feel the thrill which accompanies that most fascinating pastime; and, back of it all, I think I find a sort of savage and diabolical desire to gather up all the little tragedies of my life, and turn them into a practical joke on society”
Massachusetts, 1692... what an awful time to be alive. Especially for a young, timid girl by the name of Clarabeth. Not exactly the most special of girls, just a hard worker for her family, an all around fair person. Unfortunately, Clarabeth woke from an unpleasant sleep with a start on a gloomy August twilight, to the sound of people shouting and an accused “witch” tied to a stake, crying with the force of a tidal wave, pleading to be let down.
When I woke up I felt like a new person, yet there was something missing. Zaroff was gone and as far as I knew, there was nothing left to fear.

I went down the stairs to the kitchen and prepared some breakfast.

These marigolds that were orange and yellow and the only thing that made me run down house look beautiful. They meant so much to me because I got those from my husband Craig Lottie. Craig had a disability that leads to him passing away a couple of years after he bought me the marigolds and that is all I have to remember him.
There it lay, right in the middle of the room. That grubby old mitt, shredded to pieces. Four weeks ago, a new prisoner named ‘Jamie’ arrived at the hell gates. He possessed a personable appearance and a brawny structure.
It was a cold gloomy night in the village of Sleepy Hollow, the fog was thick and the wind was roaring. The crow sat perched on the Sleepy Hollow sign as an indication something wicked was lurking in the town. The leaves were beginning to fall and soon so would the heads of some the people in this scared little village. I was riding around the town one foggy night looking for my next head to take. All the sudden my emotions charged at me from the inside out.
Look, this is Lucy's. It's pictures and things she kept of when you were growing up. I told you to stop meddling in my relationship with my mother. We're fine.
Silence. Not eerie, but peaceful. Nobody talks up here, but how would you find the breath, let alone the words to describe this place after a hike like that? So instead you just listen. Listen to the wind’s song to the sagebrush, the river’s trickling babble to the trees, the cheatgrass’ whisper to the clouds, begging for them to move so that they can spark a wild flame of destruction on these desert lands.
Within the essays “Superman and Me” by Sherman Alexie and “Learning to Read and Write” by Frederick Douglas, both recount the battle they fought to gain an education from a society that was dedicated to withholding it from them.
