                                          My thanksgiving Day
First person narrator from my point of view

My thanksgiving was horrible. I went to my mom’s house on Wednesday and left on Saturday. I had the worst thanksgiving ever this year. I was my mom’s house and I had taken my braids out so my hair looked ridiculous. I was also upset because my mom had my family over and I don’t really get along with them. My aunt started yelling and cussing at everyone and it irritated me. Then my cousin brought her kids and on top of that she was drunk. My sister tried to argue with me about every little thing. I know my little cousins were thinking that I was crazy but I’m not. I was very irritated on thanksgiving day and next year I will stay here at Spa.

The Cask of Amontillado" Content Paragraph: Evaluating the Narrator

“The cask of Amontillado” by Edgar Allen Poe is a little crazy. The narrator is Montresor.    This story is a little crazy to me because this guy is telling another guy to go down in to the wine cellar so he can kill him. That is kind of crazy. What person in their right mind does something insane like that? I would not trust this guy with my life. Not even with a pencil that belongs to me.  I think he might have drunk some wine. He beat him up badly, chained him to a wall inside the wine cellar and then built a wall in the door way so he couldn’t get out and no one could go in. This guy is crazy.

The Interlopers" Before: Family Feud

My house (girls #3) doesn’t get along with any new girls that come. Every time we get a new girl someone in the house wants to fight them or doesn’t like them, only because they feel the new girl is going to take their boyfriend or steal their friends or just some stupid reason. For example, when a new middle school girl came on campus, a middle school girl in my house got mad because she felt her boyfriend was going to leave her for the new girl. My house is fully of bratty girls who are stingy and jealous.  Hopefully they will learn that being jealous isn’t the key of getting what you want.
