Assignment #12: The Black Cat


The whole point in the story “The Black Cat” was just a message to other people saying that violence isn’t the answer to anything violence doesn’t solve anything. You may be mad or angry inside or at someone. But you DON’T have to go out and hit or hurt someone, because all your really doing is hurting yourself. Use words to say how you feel. You don’t have to hurt someone to feel better. Just because your mad and you want to hurt someone does not make it ok. Just imagine how that person feels. What if that was you and some one just went up to you and punched you how you feel? You might feel better cause you hit someone but deep down you know it wasn’t the right thing to do and you feel guilty.

Assignment #10: Bullying

I think everyone has been bullied at least one time in their life. I know I have. When kids get bullied its not always at school, it could be at home by older siblings. I say that because I used to get bullies by my older cousins they would always pick on me and make me cry. They would make me feel so left out I hated it.
 Once I got to middle school the bullying started all over again. The girls that picked on me were way bigger then I was. There was three girls an I am not going to lie I was scared I even used to eat in the counselors office with my other friend. There was days where I didn’t even want to go to school I was scared that if I even looked at them they would hurt me. One time the girls had even told me that they knew where I lived and that they were going to follow me home and jump me. That day I stood after school because I was scared that they were really going to jump me.
 I told my mom and she wanted me to tell the counselors, the principal, and the teachers. I didn’t want to because I didn’t want to be the rat of the snitch. But I know if I said something it would stop, but at the same time I thought things would get worse because I told on them. So I just decided to tell the counselor and she said that everything was my fault she pretty much took the others girls side so now it was pretty much like four against one. I told my mom what happened and she got mad she was so mad that she wanted to switch me schools because she didn’t want anything to happen to me.
 On the second of the last day of 8th grade the girls came up to me and said they were sorry for everything and that they felt bad. I didn’t want to talk to them because I was so mad at them cause they picked on me for 3 years and pretty much on the last day of school they say sorry? What took them so long to say sorry, I just didn’t trust them after that but I didn’t have to deal with them anymore so that was the only good thing.

 This is my experience with bulling.

Assignment #9

This is Fabio. I met Fabio when I was 13. We ran into each other at Wal-Mart . I was going to go try on some clothes and Fabio happened to be in the dressing room. No one knew he was there, I wasn’t sure if I should tell my mom. So what I did was I got some baby clothes to dress him as if he were a little baby. So I was waling around with him, holding him as if he were a baby.
 I happened to run into my mom and she had asked who I was carrying. All I said was his name is Fabio and I walked away. We went to the car to wait for my mom and she noticed Fabio in the back seat and I told her that he was an ailen. She looked at me as if I were crazy. So I took the baby cloths off of him and she didn’t know what to say.
 So she let me take him home I wasn’t sure what I was getting my self into by bringing home an alien. So we all got to my house and we sat him on the couch and just looked at him, like what are we going to do with this alien? My mom and I decided to keep him in our house.
 We even made his own room. Fabio was like the little brother that I never had. It was fun he talked like a regular person he acted like a regular person he did everything like he was a regular person. Fabio lived with us for about 7 years I was 18 when he moved out. Well he didn’t really move out his reak parents came back for him.
 Fabio didn’t want to leave cause he had gotten so comfortable at our house. When his parents had came for him he introduced my mom and I to them. He said he didn’t want to leave but he had no choice.
 His parents told him that my mom and I could move back to Mars with them, and that was the only way we woyld be able to keep in touch with each other. Then my mom said well how bout he can come down every other weekend and the weekend that hes not here we’ll go to mars?
 So they agreed they agreed! We all kept intouch. We were pretty much one big family. We all got together every holiday. Thanksgiving was the best holiday for all of us. We all got together at my house there is at least more then 20 of us for thanksgiving. But we are all one big happy family!
