Worst Nightmare The worst nightmare I have ever had was when I had dreamt that I was in bed lying down looking at the ceiling and my room looked twice as big as it really was. It was pitch black and it seemed like there was nothing else in there but my bed and the walls surrounding me. It started with me hearing strange noises and voices of a man‚ a women and little children. I laid in my bed in a long white silk gown and quickly sat up and stared into the darkness. I asked softly “Who’s there?”

A/N: a short story done for my mock English GCSE exam‚ where the question was to ’describe a nightmare world’. Instead of going for the cliché‚ hell-like landscape‚ I decided to base my so-called ’nightmare world’ off of a real nightmare‚ in the world we live in – a young boys perspective during a bombing in WWII. Note: I got an A for that exam paper! Nightmare World Every day they come‚ in their great terrifying birds of steel‚ overhead and through the clouds that I once thought held heaven

Darwin’s Nightmare can be described as an allegory presenting a world of super powers and their greed to steal‚ destroy and kill. It is not only the story of Eastern Congo alone‚ but an eye opener to the imperialistic interest of some “war lords” in the natural resources of some endowed nations that are considered lesser power. Examples of such are nations like Iraq‚ Nigeria‚ Rwanda‚ Burundi‚ Sudan‚ or Sierra- Leone. The endless conflicts are often described as tribal or religious‚ but the underlying

CO-CURRICULAR Personally‚ I am a big proponent of students being active or in fact hyper active in co-curricular activities. In my personal opinion‚ there is a lot of value to gain from being active in such activities. A lot of soft skills would be able to be obtained through such involvements. You would be mingling with others (outside of classroom setting)‚ so you get some interactions. There will be some skill sets learning as well‚ depending on type of clubs/societies etc. For those uniformed

The Old Abandoned House It seemed like an ordinary day. Everything seemed to be going well‚ but little did I know something terrible was going to happen. I gazed through window which seemed to me that it was going to be a bright‚ sunny day. As hours passed‚ it got darker‚ cloudier‚ and windy. It was my parent’s anniversary that day. They went to go to dinner around 6pm and left me home with the babysitter. I hated my babysitter with every ounce of my being. She puts on a fake smile and pretends

He stepped out into the cold‚ dark night. The air smelled fresh after the storm. He gasped as the cold air sliced through his throat‚ his breath dissipating from a cloud of steam. He wrapped himself more tightly into his black cape‚ and ventured forward into the night. The sounds of his feet crushing the pebbles underneath‚ the ravens spilling out their haunting call‚ his own breath quivering in the icy atmosphere - these noises chilled him even further. Shook his spine and froze his heart. He stopped

A Nightmare World Flames. They were all I could see as I stared at the lit cigarette igniting the beginning of my death. The pain of burning streaked across my foot as I rose into the air and violently stamped my feet to end the brutal agony. The conflagration rose high above the window‚ to give me a glimpse of the azure blue sky outside and the rest of the world that had no idea of my imminent death or the flames that would eventually destroy the whole town. The fire was almost mocking me‚ as
