So this is my first story that I made in quite a while. So enjoy! Feel free to give me any hints on how to make it better.
“Come on Alice! Wake up, you’re going to be late for school!” Mary, my older sister, yelled. She’s in charge of having to wake me up for school. I feel really sorry for her half the time but then again she gets to wake up earlier than me. I looked over to the door and there she still stood, her face red like a tomato. “I’m up! I’m up! Man, why do bạn always have to be so loud in the morning?” I whined, annoyed that she woke me up from a fabulous dream.
I guess I should introduce myself huh? My name is Alice Knight and I am a junior in high school. I’m 17 years old! My sister, Mary is turning 19 in a week. She thinks she is better than me because I happen to be in high school still. But despite her arrogance she really is a kind sister. Back in middle school I was ruthlessly bullied bởi a group of girls who hated me for no reason. My sister would always run to my aid no matter what.
“Alice hurry up already! bạn only have 10 phút before bạn are late! Get up!!” I heard my sister yell again. I hurriedly get up and run into the bathroom, brushing my teeth while brushing my hair with the other hand. ‘I’m going to be late! Ugh why didn’t she wake me up sooner!?’ I think as I put on my school uniform and grab my bag. Mary is standing tiếp theo to the door holding a piece of bánh mì nướng with bơ on it and I rush to grab it after putting on my shoes and with a quick “See bạn later!” I am off to my school.
I finally see the huge blue building of the school and I start running faster after noticing the clock telling me that I only have 5 phút to get to class. Just as I arrive into class the chuông, bell rings and thankfully my ghế, chỗ ngồi is the closest one to the door. “You were almost late again weren’t you, Alice?” My friend, Sarah says during lunch. “Yeah…Mary purposely wakes me up late I swear.” I mutter with my hand on my chin. I never eat during lunch, bạn see my family can’t afford to get me any of the thực phẩm here. Me and Mary had to either pack one hoặc not eat at all. Not fair!
My stomach picks the worst time to grumble and I blush looking embarrassed. “Here Alice, we can share.” says Sarah while holding up her lunch. I’ve never been thêm blessed than becoming Những người bạn with her. Her name is Sarah Archer. She’s the same age as me and we’ve been Những người bạn since middle school.
“I don’t want to take away your chance to eat Sarah. I’ll be fine when I get home. Honest!” I say trying my best to stop her from offering me any. As much as I would tình yêu to eat she still needs to eat too. “Jeez you’re always so stubborn. Come on please? Just eat some of my cơm, gạo okay?” she insists. Ugh I can’t resist her when she insists like that. “Fine! I’ll eat SOME of your rice.” I need to build up my defense against her. Sarah has this way of making bạn listen to what she wants. Quite cunning for a sweet girl.
Soon the chuông, bell rings to dismiss us, I for one am glad. I cannot stand school. Sarah on the other hand loves it. Nothing makes her happier than discussing her yêu thích lessons. Seeing her smile is a joy I always tình yêu witnessing. Now for my yêu thích part of the day, going trang chủ and doing absolutely nothing but playing video games.
“I’m home” I say as I step inside the house and take off my shoes. “Welcome trang chủ honey” I hear my mom say as I pass the kitchen. Yum! She’s making my yêu thích thực phẩm ever today. Opening the door to my bedroom I leap into my bed. ‘I’m trang chủ sweet bed!’ I think as I cuddle with my pillow. “Alice honey? Wake up, it’s time for dinner.” I hear a soft voice say as they gently shake me. Groaning I open my eyes to see mom standing above me. “Okay mom..” I get up off the giường and stretch before joining my family downstairs.

When will this end?
Mass shootings
Terrorist attacks
Police brutality
They say it's just a gun control problem
They say it cannot be fixed
I say the problem is deeper
I say there is hope
When will this end?
Income inequality
Veterans living on the streets, penniless,
Dying bởi their own hands everyday.
They say this world can change for the better
But nothing has changed...
And I truly do fear
Nothing ever will
When will tình yêu start?
The ngày we offer a hand to the fallen
Instead of cringing back in shock
And running away
When will our world change?
The ngày we tình yêu too much to kill
The ngày others' pain is our pain
The ngày we act instead of just talking about it
"It's impossible"
"We're too broken to be mended"
"It's a hopeless battle"
I say, let us try.

It’s the color of you
bạn always wore it
It’s the color we shared
As we hid form them
With it we showed our true selves,
Though no one cared
Our trái cam, màu da cam book bags
Saved us from some pain
We protected each other
But it wasn’t enough
We were like two trái cam, màu da cam crayons
When everyone else was green
Then bạn left me alone,
All I had was our color orange
As they hit me
I took peace in knowing
bạn were in the trái cam, màu da cam field in the sky
bạn always đã đưa ý kiến was there.
The trái cam, màu da cam of the sun set
Is your smile
Even though bạn left too soon
Orange…
Now it’s my color
My way of remembering you
Now I am the lone trái cam, màu da cam in the rainbow
Without bạn here
I protect my own
Though I wish bạn were here
Now trái cam, màu da cam is my color
A color for bạn bravery
A color for my survival
trái cam, màu da cam will forever be our color
Even though death took bạn away
Forever trái cam, màu da cam for you,
Sweet Cassidy.
