BUNGALOW

 By far, hands down, best sounding word: Bungalow. The definition of a Bungalow is a cozy word for a specific type of house: usually one that's either a single story or two stories with a sloping roof. Though there may be additional criteria depending on where in the world you're using the term.

Not only does it flow nicely, but it is so fun to say. I chose this word because it is my favorite to say and reminds me of a peaceful beach. It also makes me think of a really high dude who is really chill and native to somewhere tropical. Like when you think of those computer default backgrounds, white sand, empty beach, clear water, and boom! Cozy bungalow. 

I actually have an interesting past with bungalows. I knew this word from an early age because of an obsession with the Nickelodeon show “Drake and Josh.” In the series’ christmas movie where Drake and Josh are left behind during christmas while their parents stay at a bungalow and it is so funny. 

This word just makes me feel so nostalgic because not only does it remind me of my favorite childhood tv show, but it just reminds me of comfort. I can become so tranquil thinking about a bungalow. I just finished a stupid nine hour shift and am writing a blog post at 12:30 thinking shesh, I could be in a bungalow right now. But I can’t be. Bungalow isn’t a popular word as much as it is a popular find so when I think of the word and Drake and Josh it is so personal and special to me because I doubt many people are thinking of a bungalow right now.

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...
