Houses Of The Street
2,479 wordsdeath from above North Richmond Street, being blind, was a quiet street except at the hour when the Christian Brothers's chool set the boys free. An uninhabited house of two storeys stood at the blind end, detached from its neighbours in a square ground. The other houses of the street, conscious of decent lives within them, gazed at one another with brown imperturbable faces. The former tenant of our house, a priest, had died in the back drawing-room. Air, musty from having been long enclosed, h...

Autumn's Room
1,515 wordsThe Night of a Lifetime For teenagers every problem (no matter how big or small) is a big deal.

Hot Chocolate And The Honey Sticks
1,215 wordsMy Weekend Family Get-Away Throughout my childhood I liked to escape from everyday routine and be alone with my family or my closest friends. There was the trail in the woods by the old battlefield where I would take my dog for long walks and for a change of scenery. There was the pond where my friends and I would go and throw rocks to see who could get theirs to skip the farthest. These places are vivid in my memory because that's where I would go to have fun, but the one place that sticks out ...

Way To The Tree Beneath The Window
523 wordsThere was nothing particularly special or interesting about the house (besides the fact that it was two-hundred and fifty years old), but after many weeks of deliberating I decided to go for it. It was a warm spring evening, and the moon was beginning to come out. I made my way around the side of the house and all the way to the tree beneath the window which would lead me in. Like a snake, a slithered my way up the tree. To my delight I found the window wide open. I put one foot in and then the ...

Water Guns And Water Easter Eggs
541 wordsPersonal Essay: Look Before You Leap One bright Easter day about four years ago, my family had gone to my grandparents' house to celebrate Easter like we usually do each year.

My House Of Fiction
765 wordsSpell it out In Shakespeare's Henry IV, Part 1, there is a scene in which two ill-assorted men, the vainglorious Glendower and Henry Percy, aka Hotspur, meet in Bangor. They are there to form a military alliance - and it will prove an ill-fated one. The scene is haunting (Hotspur has not long to live), yet it is wonderfully funny. During the course of it, Glendower, who has a reputation as a wizard, boasts of his magical powers to a sceptical Hotspur. The exchange is one of my favourites, and I ...

Second Flash Of Lightning
881 wordsThe sudden, swift, severe summer storm caught me totally unaware. I was walking down Old Salem Road when the clouds started to build. I looked around as I huddled under a large, dead oak tree. Almost all of the houses on this abandoned street were too badly damaged for me to take shelter in, except for one. The house loomed impressive and morbid in the greenish-black sky. A flash of lightning briefly illuminated the house. The windows were broken, but the superstructure seemed sound. I was becom...

Fond Memories Of My House
941 wordsThis may sound somewhat clich " ed, but I truly feel that my most special and memorable place is my home. I've only ever had two homes my entire life, both located in sizzling hot Miami, Florida. One I have very few memories of, and the other is the small, 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom house that I've been living in for most of my 15-year life. My home has always been my "safe haven", a conduit to the neighborhood I would find friends in, a shelter I could always return to when the world wasn't treating...
