"C'mon Tyla ya wastin time!"Connor said."Sorry Conna i'm tying my shoe.","we ah gonna be late for the pahty." When I finished tying my shoes I hopped in the car with Connor."It's about time." He says."We ah not gonna be late, we'll be there just in time" I said. "Whateva ya say." As we arrive at the party eveyone piles on to greet us. Every greeting seems to be the same though. Like,"Hi....Oh my god I haven't seen ya like,in foreva." So I decide to sit down. I look over and see an old friend of mine, and say, "You look wicked awesome, let's catch up."

As I was struttin down 21st street I heard my boi J yell to me from the otha' side of the street. This was no happy "ayy Jose" though, he sounded scared. Before I could do anythin' I heard the screech of tires and then a pop. Did J just get popped? I ran over to the other side of the street. I was more scared then I have eva' been in my whole life. J was on the ground with a stain of blood on his dope worn down hoodie. "J you can't leave me know. You all I got. Come on man." He opened one of his eyes. "I love ya Jose. Take care of Marcie for me. Tell er' I said I love 'er. I... I..." His voice faded. I left him on the ground but before I left I told him I was goin to find those hustla's who killed him and they won't even see what is comin for em'. I'll neva forget that day.

The otha day stahted kinda noice, of course it was my birfday. Oi stahted the day with my mah and pah waking me up with a big ol' breakfast, eggs, pencakes, and a big glass of meilk. Afterwords I opened up my presents, and oi got lots of good tings. However for lunch all oi had was a wimpy lil sandwhich, oi mean its my birfday and oi deezerve a good meal. Then mah told me to get into the cah, so we all got into the cah and droved off. We went to a seafood resturant, mom and pah got a big shremp meal, while oi got the big lobstah meal. Overall it was good day.

As I was struttin' down 21st in Manhattan New York I heard my boi J yell my name. This was no happy "ayy Jose" though. He was scared man. Before I could do anything I heard a pop. Dang! J just got mugged! I ran to the other side of the street. I was more scared than I have ever been, u know. When I got to J he was layin on the ground with a stain of blood on his hoodie. I knew J was out sellin some dope. The guy who popped him probably gotta bad deal and gave him some payback. It's tough down hear in the hood. "J come on man, I can't loose you now. You all I got. Come on J, stay with me boi." He opened one of his eyes. "I love ya brotha. Take care of Marcie for me tell er' I love 'er, yo. I.. I.." His voice faded. My only brotha died, right in front of me. I was p'd man, u know, like you just wanna rip a guys head off or somethin'. I left J on the ground but before I left I told him, "yo J, I'm goin to find the guy that did this to you. He won't even know what's comin'.

"Luis, got them cash?" I said. "Yup" replied Luis. As we make are way into the theater the ad's already played. Oh no! Andrés gets angry when he misses the ad's. I don't think he'll notice. " Mommy!, dem ad's.... we missed them!" He is yelling this over and over. By this time the whole theater is getting frustrated with us.

I don't know about yer family, but mah mamma makes the best fried chicken, the best you'll ever eat. Every Friday naght, we set down to the table and only wait long 'nuff to just say our prayers before we dig in. One stormy naght, when mah daddy came up from the cella' with soot coverin' his face, a streak of lightnin' and a crack of thunder brought us runnin' to the winder. When we returned to the table, all them chicken wings were gone! Either my dang little brother Timmy ate them all, like he's done befo', or they walked away on the legs they have left. Sittin' there in silence, we just 'bout heard our dog crunchin' away under the table. Sho 'nuff, he ate them chicken wings. That dumb hound. He won't be eatin' with us on Friday naghts anymo'. My family loves those wings mo' than they love that hound.

Yo yo yo my name is Jarward I live in Boston I go to high school. Sometimes after school I like to shoot some hoop with my “home boys”. I have to carry a pocket knife around because its not too safe these days you don't know when a group of guys are gonna jump you and steal your wallet or something. I know a couple people that are into pretty bad stuff like robbing convenience stores or wrecking school property. I'm not into that kind of stuff because I made a promise to my Mom that I would stay out of trouble. I also don't do that stuff because I don't want to get chased by the popo. -Justin Bishop

Goodnight mom and dad, I said, just before I entered my room to go to bed. Just as I walked through the door I got a freezing chill that went through my body and suddenly all my body hairs stood up straight. I kept getting the chills so I got into my bed and curled up into my sheets. It was midnight, and I woke to the sound of footsteps walking around me. I then pulled the sheets back over my head and fell back asleep. I then again woke up at 3 in the morning to the same sound and then I saw a dark black figure walk into my room, and the figure then started walking toward me. It was then I woke up and realized that it was all a dream. Or was it. Chad Anthony
