On November 16, 1957, local police were investigating the disappearance of Bernice Worden when they stumbled upon Wordens’ dismembered carcass in Ed Gein's shed.

Both Jeremy Waldron's book, the Harman Hate Speech, and Matthew Desmond's analysis of the housing crisis in America talk about the harm in social hierarchies due to external factors such as poverty and bias. While Waldron's argument about assurance versus dignity in terms of preserving one's right to free speech emphasizes Americans' constitutional rights, Desmond's eviction is an in-depth portrayal of actual real-life American stories that the justice system has betrayed. Both Harms in Hate Speech and Evicted highlight the importance of injustice and the humanitarian need for survival when faced with the theme of just relationships and individuality. During part three of Desmond's eviction, the readers follow the story of Arlene and her two

A story that had a profound impact on me during my childhood years would have to be a story told by my mom that just terrified me. I was told this story about of the age of 4. The story that I am talking about is an urban legend called La Llorona. My understanding about this urban legend is that she is a Hispanic legend and is known as “the weeping woman” in America. In Mexico, la Llorona is described as an awful mother who drowned her 2 kids in a river.
The Cobbler It was a was brisk October morning in the great city of Detroit and the trees were just beginning to change from green to the yellows and oranges of autumn. It was dawn, and there was a thin layer of frost blanketing the grass like a sleeping child, and a cobbler shop lights were turning on for a long day's work. The large brick building was different from every other shop on the block just as the man who owned the shop was unlike anyone in his profession. Known as the best cobbler in Michigan, Marcus Cobblestone worked with his wife Barbara at his side and unlike any other man in the city, Marcus had his pet chimpanzee, Ralph with him in the shop at all times. On this brisk October morning, as Marcus enjoyed his fresh cup of coffee
It was around the corner, I could feel the very presence of it. In the movie that my friends and I were watching, a teenager was walking through the hallway of his school, after hours, and when he turned a corner, his possessed teacher attacked him. It was very obvious, to me, what would happen to him. “Let’s do something else. This movie is terrible,” my friend Alfie said.
"I was so terrified and horror-stricken at the sight, that I hid myself in a closet,

The Fidget Spinner that Rocked the World Friendship is an amazing thing. Having a bond that can be so close is important yet sometimes these bonds break in a second. My experience with friendship is a rocky boat, my best friend and I lost our relationship over a plastic wonder, a Fidget Spinner….. My Fidget Spinner. My “best friend” and I were walking to the bus stop together.
Suddenly, we heard a noise coming from the bottom of dad’s car. My family and I had just gotten back from a road trip. “What is that”? I wondered. My dad walked over to the car and peered under.
As a young aspiring musician in middle school, I wanted to start a band desperately. Instead, I was known as Emerson Middle School 's’ music freak. I posted flyers in businesses around my hometown and online ads. I wanted to be like Amy Lee from Evanescence terribly, but my taste in music was different than most people. When my fellow classmates heard about my compositions and ideas, they thought it was a joke.
I 'm finally working on a chapter book. Still planning it, feeling inspired, and having fun. Writing has always been a stress reliever for me. To all the writers in this group, I hope you get the same great feeling as I do when working on a book. I support books as people support movies, music, and anything else.
Build-A-Bear was fun when I was 8. Now, not so much. I remember it was my best friend Addison 's birthday and she got to invite two friends to Build-A-Bear, she picked me and our other friend Hannah. We were so excited the day that her birthday came.
I hated it. Everything about it made me want to run away. The students, the teachers, my classes, just everything. I sat alone in lunch and I had no friends to hang around with. I got bullied.
Middle school was an extremely rough time for me. I was bullied constantly. I was like the figurative punching bag of the school (I was never physically harmed). This eventually made me leave the public school system and go to a completely different Catholic High School. I picked the one High School in the area that nobody from my old school was going to.
