It was so much anger, in fact, that I’ll never be the same person I once was. It’s only until someone reaches the darkest point in life when that person realizes where they truly belong. I don’t know where I used to belong. Maybe it was somewhere in between the the nerdy and the lonely kids. I guess you could say I’ve never had much friends. I’ve always been the

take much more of this,” grumbled Millan Prink, as he rolled out of bed onto unsteady feet. “It’s bad enough that dear Laura left me eight years ago, bless her soul, but now I have to do all the work around here.” With a big sigh and a nod to the dreamcatcher above his bed, he went outside to his work. All the way through the hayfields, over the pasture, and to the barn, Millan daydreamed. He dreamed of fairies and goblins, and worlds of sprites and specters. Millan was a fanatic.

She is screaming.. Screaming loud and more clear than ever. Every second, her scream is getting louder and louder. It’s increasing in such a high pitch that one’s ears would start bleeding if they were near her. I tried to help her. I wanted to run to her but, my feet refused to move.

Her scream is still increasing in pitch as if

This is evident through the taking of objects such as Native headdresses, dreamcatchers, costumes, etc. Often times when people take from cultures, they give the object its own meaning or disregard the true significance which is considered appropriation.
