The flashing lights‚ the music and screaming all had me gawking at anything and everything that my eyes happened upon. What caught and kept my attention were the rides that seemed to torture their occupants. It still amazes me that average‚ ordinary people eagerly trade in the serenity and security of

Bloody Mary ENG121 Bloody Mary “She’s hideous!” Said my best friend Brando‚ short for Brandon. “Just do it!” he kept saying‚ along with his brother Kevin. I was afraid. “Don’t be such a pussy.” Kevin yelled as he pushed me forward‚ almost knocking me off my feet and into the cross street at the top of our cul-de-sac. That was where the house stood. Directly across Mountain Ave. That was where she would appear‚ the “hideous” woman. The one we all called Bloody Mary. All you had

numerous options that a person can choose to visit. I assume that the two majority common places people desire for taking a vacation are the beaches and the mountains. Both places offer a variety of amusing activities to do. The beach offers activities that the mountain cannot offer and vice versa. The mountain and the beach are totally different in some kind of way. Even though these are both good quality vacation places‚ they are different in climate‚ types of activities‚ and locations.

ranch-style house in southern California‚ my stomach was howling for attention‚ waiting for a scrumptious meal to help ease its hunger.
