Toe Salad :)

I would like to start this piece by establishing that I am a very easy going nice person, so typically, I don’t make assumptions about a lot of stuff. But that “stuff” does not include celery. I actually don’t think there is a way I can emphasize my hate for celery. People are always like “why?” and “It tastes like water!” Like, no it most certainly does not. It tastes too crunchy, peppery and bitter. It makes my mother so mad because it requires to adjust many of her beloved recipes. I won’t touch it even if it's been cooked down for hours in soup, I specifically remember her trying to poison my sloppy joe. So much tension that hot summer day... It's odd to me sometimes because I. eat. Everything. But I genuinely can’t bring myself to eating celery. It’s worst form is in deviled eggs or potato salad. I have never met a potato salad I liked so I just stay away from all for the greater good. At work, (I work at Detroit Wing Company) I am always cursed with making potato salad. And mama making potato salad in a serious bulk… There’s no celery in this potato salad, but I have just been so hurt in the past that I don’t know what potato salad to trust. I had some this sunday and it is lowkey straight gas and it really hit me that I am the most dramatic person I know. So for now I will be more understanding for those foods that I assume have celery in them!

25 Dollars

  Last Thursday Trevor came into my work place, “Detroit Wing Company” at around eight pm. In our chatter, our favorite class “12 AP English” was brought up. Mostly we conversed on Nav’s stupid beanie (just kidding). We actually talked about who would win the debate, negative or affirmative. We of course rooted for our home teams and made a 25 dollar bet one who would win. In this blog post, I am writing about what I would do with that gorgeous amount of cash. First of all, I would make it very clear that I won. I would take a video of him handing me the money with me laughing in the background. Then, I would take some selfies with the money via snapchat and send them his way. After that gets old, I will put the 25 dollars in my tip jar. Hopefully at the end of the month I will deposit the whole jar to my bank account. One day when me and the gals want to grab a nice bite I will go get Thai food or Indian (TBD) and I will spend about 15 on the meal leaving at three dollar tip. “Viv...

PLEASE DON'T READ THIS! NOT MY BEST WORK

  Vivienne François Mrs. Knudson 12 AP English 13 October 2020 Lyric Essay: Complex Characters In human nature, people tend to feel more purposeful when they find that someone that can make them say “same,” a song you scream that’s a “mood,” or that book that makes you finally unlock a deep self realization. In both “Oedipus the King” and “Saving Sourdi” authors compose complex characters to prove no one stands alone in our relatable universe and to emphasize the theme that truth can be fatal in many ways given character emotion.  “Saving Sourdi” author May-Lee Chai had me at “Sometimes we locked ourselves in the bathroom” (Chai paragraph 21). Similar to the complex character Nea , my older sister and I would lock ourselves in bathrooms, and call the times we shared in their “girl parties.” Chai established the archetype of the “mother older sister.” The sister that falls in the footsteps of a strong mother figure who the younger sister strives to keep their head above water t...

Q

            My sister is a sophomore in college and she’s absolutely thriving. She never really enjoyed high school, and she was the quiet, unproblematic type with the close friends from elementary school. There was never a specific instance or reason to hate Troy High for her. I’ve actually had good times, and sometimes I get scared if I’m currently peaking because of her.  I think a big part of her happiness from college is having new friends, a downtown area, and a boyfriend. Boyfriend. I don't really have trust issues but I heavily don’t mess with this mofo… There’s some off juju about him and I have no evidence to present a solid motive to dislike the dude. I always bring him up because she is too shy to say anything but I will just be spacing out during a conversation and be like why did I even ask. He’s also not ugly, but I just don’t like his face, if that makes sense. And the worst of it all is his name is Quinton, not that it matters, bu...
