Even the clock, still a few minutes off noon..", time is going by slow for Ellen as she awaits for Paul to return to the house. Ellen becomes angry at Paul when she asks Paul to move out of the house "there was a dark resentment in her voice now..." so they can be away from the dust storm. Also Ellen wants to move because she thinks that it hard for their baby to breathe because of the dust in the air. The feeling of isolation creeps up on Ellen when Paul is not there and she knows that the nearest neighbors are far away and her house would be very hard to reach in the dust storm that she is experiencing. Another reason that Ellen feels isolated is of lack of communication with others this causes her to break down and eventually run away with the baby to try to get away from the storm "I'm so caged- if I could only break away and run".
These black rats like to live near or in human housing. This highly contagious infection is spread to humans by fleas that are biting the black rats and contracting the infection. The infected flea then bites a human and leaves the infection in the flea bites. When an over populated area of black rats becomes more over populated this can be another cause of the spread of the Black plaque faster. The growth of population in cities and small towns tend to lead to decline in living conditions, thus leading to famine and epidemics causing more cases if the Black Plaque.
I find it very difficult to keep myself strong, watching young men around my age falling on top of each other. Tears rolled down my eyes as I watch stray bullets fly pas me and strike into the skulls of others. At times, I wish a bullet would have already claimed my life before this whole nightmare
The holidays and birthdays they felt lonely cause they was not with family and friends, instead the white tell them what they can and cannot do. We are much better than that. They see and hear things in the prison cell the beating, lies, torture. When they take all of your dignity from you, what will you have left, just a number? Some don’t know how to feel to be hug, kiss, and love because they were locked up so long.
Up to his death a few years back Clemmons had always suspected foul play concerning Marilyn. He never considered it a straightforward suicide. Another obvious fact in the case is the lack of pills in Marilyn's stomach (the autopsy brought this fact to light). Her stomach was empty - aside from the grapefruit she had had that morning. The only way she could have died was by an enema.
There was a slight breeze, which made the softball sore through the dark night. This was the last time I would ever see my best friend Trevor. It was 6 am when my alarm clock went off. Hit the snooze a few times when my mom hollered, “Richard, get up. We’re going to be late.” So I slowly drug myself out of bed because I had a restless night.
Since it was such a long drive, Kathy had to pull over at night so they could get some sleep. Once they arrived at her family’s, the power was out an other members of her family were their so it was very crowded. While Zeitoun was back home all of their properties flooded and Zeitoun went to jail. He hadn’t heard from his family and they didn’t know where his was for weeks. Eventually, everyone was back together again after such a long journey.
Steven turns into a awful man who knows he has the advantage of Ann for the night, “but in a storm like this you are not expecting john?” (236). Over and over Steven kept reminding her that John would not be coming home tonight but that he would not be coming at all. Ann began to be afraid of Steven but then she knew that he was a safe friend but he still had a fright among him, “there was something strange, almost terrifying, about this Steven and his quiet unrelenting smile” (237). The mood had some fear in it, what should Ann do. Steven seemed to be acting as if something was going to happen.
You will not believe the conditions I have been living in. They are somewhat cruel, disgusting, dreadful and fearful. Something even I am to disturbed to look at is the rat infestation, mom you know how much I hate rats, well now I basically live with them, like they’re my pets. Millions of rats would gorge themselves on human remains. Other pests that are available here are frogs, they’re found in shell holes and in the base of our trenches.
He's so dreamy! I wish my mom would buy me that, but we don't ever have any money to spend on that kind of stuff!” my friend said this, “Well, you could always DOWNLOAD it off of the internet for free!” (she told me how to do it) after I got off the phone with her I couldn't wait to download my first batch of songs but, it didn't stop there. Growing up in my life has never been easy, we CONSTANTLY run out of Nutella, my curfew is only 8:30pm On school nights, and I have to take the trash out EVERY NIGHT. With that in mind, I thought swapping music online would give other repressed children an opportunity to see some positivity In their cruel lives. I thought it was the right thing to do.” Given the consequences Brianna LaHara faces, I believe the “Clean State Program” is a very reasonable program.
