Living in the sunny state of California all my life. There was quite a bit I was oblivious to. I took my first trip upstate with a group of my friends. We went to a camp site. It was called Camp Smokey. It was so cold I had never experienced anything like that in my life. But yet a beautiful sight to see in its own right. The way the mountains stood so tall all around me were captivating. Standing and looking yonder to at Gods beautiful creation overwhelmed me. There was also something that scared me. At night I would hear a slight howl all through the camp sight. The first night I heard it I tried to avoid it and because none of my friends were alarm I just played it off like it was nothing to me as well but I was afraid and wanted to know what was lurking out there making such a sound. …show more content…

One night I decided to be brave and find out what was out there. Maybe someone is trying to tell us something and if I get close enough I would be able to hear what it is saying. I went to bed in my clothes and around 2 am the person howling was in rare form. I stepped out of the cabin to only hear the howl in harmony like it wasn’t alone. I yelled out “Who is out there?” The sound got louder…OMG it is freezing out here. I felt something slap the back of my coat. I let out a loud scream; and when I turned around a bundle of leaves had slapped up against my coat. I yell out again “Come Out, Come Out. I want to help you.” There was no response. Then all of a sudden I hear someone call my name

    In the summer of 2005, my mother and I took a 2-week trip to Mexico to visit my grandparents. I was about 8 years old. My grandparents own a big ranch located in the middle of an enormous hill. We crossed many dwindling, bumpy, and steep roads to get to the medium-sized mud house they live in. This area in the middle of Mexico wasn’t a very modernized area. There were no new cars, no computers, no satellite television, and nothing entertaining. I wasn’t too excited about sleeping in a mud house with almost no TV reception. But, their mud house did have an amazing view. Every morning on that trip, I woke up, sprinted to the edge of the dirt road, and looked at an incredible view. I could see an infinite number of hills and cliffs peeking out

    I am staring through a jungle of metal bars, looking for my future target. I am as ready as a soldier for battle, I spot a man using the machine I had been waiting for, I am up next. I see him grind out his last set and I immediately grab a paper towel and clean up my machine. I walk up as the sweaty man with terrible b.o stands up and just walks away, disgusting. It made me want to run to my car and drive home. As I look over at the man who gunked up the machine in distaste and I see him sit down at another, and make sure to steer clear of whatever he uses the rest of my workout. In slow motion I grab a paper towel and put some cleaner on it and make sure to clean the machine spotless before laying a finger on it. From that day on, I will

  • The Ghost

    Well, old houses do creak I guess, but the sounds I heard that night were definitely loud bangs on my window, which couldn't possibly have been caused by tree branches, since there weren't any tree branches that even touched the house anywhere near the room I slept in. I definitely got the independence that I wanted this past summer, but I wasn't quite as ready for it as I thought I was. I'll probably never have an explanation for what I heard that night, and honestly, I don't think I really want one. I still don't like the idea of ghosts or souls of people who have died coming back to earth, but I do think that some things just can't be explained by simple human logic. I'll never forget that night up at my grandma's when I was so scared that I couldn't move a muscle in my body.
