Chase Renner: A Short Story

744 Words3 Pages

In response to your question: no, I assure you that I do not have anger issues nor am I envious. See, I even excuse her superciliousness , but only because she dates Chase Renner, the most swanky guy at Adamson high, with that title Tessa can get away with acting arrogantly superior (she’s literally with the most fashionable guy EVER). His tenor when he greets you makes it seem as if he genuinely wants to talk to you, not to mention his effeminate facial features, which would look girly on any other boy, make him look like a beautiful porcelain doll. Oh, I can 't fail to mention his pungent Abercrombie and Fitch cologne, any room without that strong smell is simply desolate and I refuse to reside in an utterly empty room, but I digress.

Maybe the way she, working hard to further draw all attention by accentuating her curves, drapes herself across any divan in the trampiest clothes when guys are around. This behavior makes it hard to believe that Tessa could score a 2100 on the SAT: In fact, when I heard her gloating about this, I just stared incredulously as I secretly questioned whether someone left the door to her head ajar and in doing so let any intelligence she actually had slip out the opening. Ugh, I just want to submerge her blonde head in a bucket of water and hold it there (of course I would let go, I would do so languidly, basking in every suffering moment).

Geez, I just turn into a brute of a girl when I start talking about her, it’s just, well, I wish her life ended when the nurse first set her in that ether following her birth, that would solve all my “problems”. I see how I could appear harsh on miss Brooks, but she definitely asks for it: if she ever acted like a decent human being, the act was too imperceptible for me to notice (or maybe I’m just too obstinate to accept that she could treat someone with

  • Best In Class, By Margaret Talbot

    874 Words  | 4 Pages

    To be presented as valedictorian, to have the opportunity to speak at graduation, to walk across the stage knowing you’ve worked extremely hard over the past 4 years - that is an honor. The title valedictorian began as an innocent award to reward the top student in each class; however, students have turned it into an enormous competition. These competitions have resulted in lawsuits, sour attitudes, and negativity towards one another. In “Best In Class,” Margaret Talbot clearly displays her message that the honor of valedictorian rewards those who work hard, but the award, over time, has become corrupt, thus, needing modification through her strong use of the appeals and her informative persona. Margaret Talbot uses each of the appeals to

    This is evident when she says “that- I consider- is a trifle impertinent, Inspector” this shows how arrogant she is, the inspector isn’t being inherently rude as he simply agreed with Sheila and because Mrs birling sees herself above the inspector in status she sees it as “impertinent” that the inspector should speak plainly to her because she is a fairly wealthy woman whose husband was a “lord mayor only two years ago and that he’s still a magistrate-“ and so the inspector should be giving her the proper respect. She sees herself as the most important person in the room at any given time and feels that everything affects her even when it doesn’t like when Gerald is talking about his affair with Eva, Mrs birling cuts in and says she doesn’t want to hear any more even when it doesn’t affect her and nothing is stopping her from leaving the room until it is her
