My Deep Dark Secret

Dear Jacqui,
          This is going to sound extremely weird to you & shocking, but this is so disturbing to me I had to share the news with someone.. I came home & my apartment was completely covered in blood. There was a trail of blood, almost as if someone were dragged, to my bedroom then across the hall to the bathroom. My bedroom walls had blood spattered across them.. My entire bed was stained with crimson. My dresser was broken into pieces on my floor with my clothes scattered across the floor. Obviously this victim struggled. My tv had a hole in it & the screen was cracked. Like whatever weapon was used went through the tv to get the victim. I walked across the hall to the bathroom to see the rest of the damage. The bath tub was filled up with blood. The mirror was shattered & again blood was spattered across the tiles & the wall. I walked out into the living room & I was stumbling over everything because it was thrown across the floors & tables were broken along with the tv. I really do not understand how the person was murdered in my apartment from someone else but I was not.. It makes no sense to me at all. My apartment was a complete mess.. Well I guess next time I need to clean my mess up before I leave. ;) We may not see each other for a while.

       

                                                                                                                   Sincerely, Alexis

Supernatural :)

Out of atmosphere, action, & the supernatural, I think that the supernatural is more effective in Mary Shelley's FRankenstein. I think that the supernatural is the most effective because after all, if Frankenstein had no monster in it, the book would not have been a hit at all. The whole story is based off of this creature & his life, or how Frankenstein created this creature & how it affected his life. No matter who is playing the narrator, the creature is brought up. How interesting would the book be if there were no eight foot tall, ugly wretched creature in it terrorizing people? Not only is the supernatural element effective in Frankenstein but it is effective in most hits. For example, Twilight & Goosebumps were huge hits.. because they had supernatural elements involved in the writing making them far more interesting or bone chilling; perhaps even giving the reader goosebumps. ;) Therefore, I think supernatural if the most effective element in Mary Shelley's Frankenstein.

My Ghost Story

In the beginning of Mary Shelley's Fankenstein, she uses four letter from Robert Walton writing to his sister while on his voyage to the Artic Pole. Walton travels to the Artic Pole to find magnetism. While on his trip, he comes across a stranger who begins to tell Walton a story about his life. The stranger tells his story through Walton & that begins chapter one. If I were to write a ghost story, I would begin with someone's personal, yet true, experience with a ghost. Then the rest of my story would be a similar & fake story with a little exaggeration thrown into the mix... Like a ghost that kills or something. Maybe I should write a ghost story.. ?

Rejection

So here's the situation.. A boy named Drake and a girl named Nicki have been best friends since kindergarten. They have lived on Elmore Street next to each other for as long as they could remember. Their families have gone on vacation together every year for the past ten years. They're both sophomores at their local high school. They have both been in and out of relationships since middle school, but none have really worked out. Nicki has always liked Drake and has told him multiple times but he always just put her in the friendzone. Nicki has tried to just brush off her feelings but they always seem to come back. After countless years of her trying, Nicki has always felt rejected from Drake. Since Nicki got tired of trying, she started to drift apart from Drake. Drake could sense that something was up so he decided to talk to Nicki about her feelings. They had a long discussion about how she felt rejected & eventually Drake decided that he would take her out & give her a chance. 20 years later... Drake & Nicki are happily married & have 3 kids named Luke, Miranda, & Blake. Moral of the story is try everything once :)
