Tell-Tale Heart

The narrator in Tell-Tale Heart pleas that he is not mentally insane. He believes that because he is cunning,  and sneaky. This man plans to kill his boss, not because of hatred, but because of his eye. Despite his caution, he still proves insane in my eyes.

The narrator decides to murder his boss. He is only doing so because of his boss's eye. The eye "haunts" him. So the narrator watches his boss for several nights, cautiously moving. And when he decides to kill him, he smothers his boss with the mattress he was sleeping on, cuts his boss's body to pieces and stuffs the body parts in the floor boards. The only smart things the narrator did was cut the body in the bath tub and putting the pieces in the floor.

Though the narrator is wise, he proves to be insane. He murdered his boss because his boss had a strange eye. The narrator also watched his boss sleep  for eight days before he murdered his boss, which I don’t really understand why he did that, that makes me think he's even more insane. In my opinion, the narrator is insane.

Patriots pen

I am proud of my country. Even though we have a strong reliance on fossil fuels and a lot of pollution, we have more freedom than some other countries. Here in America, we have good education and are technologically ahead of other countries. The thing I am most proud of is our rights as a citizen.

Peter Pan cliff-hanger

Author's note: the assignment was to create a cliff-hanger ending using the topic chosen randomly by my group. I think this is a good conclusion because its not too long and it makes you question why something happened and/or want to know what happens next. I would like feed-back to be what could be better/different to appeal to you more and your  thoughts about it.

Peter and Wendy made their way to Netherland. As they soar across the night sky, Peter begins to realize something. Peter Pan looks at Wendy as she gazes down at Netherland; Peter lets go.

Author's note: the topic was Peter Pan realizes he hates Wendy.

Mack essay hook

Mack is a 14-year-old unicorn salesman; he is the best in the business. Mack makes so much money he doesn't know what to do with it. He already possesses one of everything and doesn't want any pairs. In my opinion Mack should just quit his job and donate most of his money. What do you think he should do?

Bobby at the line

The score was 11-13 and Georgetown was winning.
 Francis high scored again.
One more point for Georgetown and they would win

Stanley got the ball and threw it for a pass to Mike.
Mike was tripped by one of the Francis high players and sprained his ankle.
There was 15 seconds left on the clock.

Bobby was subbed in and the crowd broke out in joyous shouting.
Bobby walked up to the free-throw line and the room went silent.
He quickly aimed and took his first shot.
He missed and Stanley said "Don't worry, you'll make the next one Bobby".

Bobby was frustrated because of his first shot, he aimed and violently threw the ball at the hoop.
The ball bounced off the backboard and was caught by a Francis high player.
The Francis high player made it to the other hoop and scored just as time ran out.
The game was over and Georgetown lost.


The climax was similar because the climax was when they got mad
