April (in 3 parts)
Part 1&2
April is about a kid named Fred. He is not the brightest guy. His friend saw him doing crack at a party but he still drove home with him. The car started swirving so the friend asked to get out of the car. After that he runs through a stop sign and hits a women's car then drives away. But, the cops end up pulling him over. He fails the soberiety test and is arrested. While in court he obviously does not care at all what is going on. And because he has never been caught doing anything before they let him off easy but give him 60 hours of community service. He was forced to appolgize to the woman he hit and she forgave him. He ends up doing his community service at a library. He was suppose to organize childrens books and puts them away. But instead he just read them, the librarians didn't seem to mind. Untill the friend that was in the car with him started coming to visit. They would draw inappropriet things in the childrens books. Then he tried to carve some girls name in their bench. After that he was forced to discontinue his work at the library. His probation officer forces him to finish it out at the Sycamore towers. He basically took care of the old people and changed their bedpans. He actually found an art class near the towers and he would attend. Then he would drawl while doing his community service. He mostly drew an old woman named Tanya. In his art classes they start to drawl nude people. He starts drawling this old lady who has a pretty smile. She loves his drawlings and hangs them up in her room. This leads him to meet her daughter. Then the short story ends.
It is nice that he started to find a hobby instead of drinking and doing crack. Obviously his friends were a bad infulence on him. Getting in that car accident was probably a good thing to happen to him. I think him finding that old woman to draw was suppose to the good ending to the story. Like maybe good things will continue from here.
Part 3 (April)
The third part of the story is actually about april. She is a young girl in the 8th grade. She played soccer for her school but she smoked alot. Her coach's name is Mr. B and he asks her to babysit for him. After babysitting Mr.B comes back to his house and brings April to her friends party. Before she gets out of the car he kisses her.
Soon she spends all of her time at his house. She ditches hanging out with people her age to go to his house. A while later Mr.B's son says something about his "other" babysitter. She just walks out of his house and leaves forever.
The first part of this story was kind of slow. It gets kind of boring reading about horrible kids screwing up their lives. Its really discusting that this 8th grader was smoking constantly like and adult, and hooking up with and adult.
Tar Baby
This story is about a bunch of teenage guys sitting around on the weekend. They don't know what to do so they drink. A.J. Sims calls some girls to meet them on a playground. They don't show so they decied to go to a party instead. But one of the guys starts making fun of A.J. so he gets mad and leaves him on a playground, by himself, drunk. The guy finds a marker that the other kid left and starts writting all over the playground and other propority on his way to the party. Once he gets here he is really drunk and gets arrested. The end.
This story was dumb. It was a waste of time to read.

Palo Alto stories Pgs.1-66
Halloween
In the first sentence of this story the reader is informed that a boy named Ryan killed a woman on halloween. Then it goes on to tell how this boy is drinking, but he really shouldn't be because he is already on probation for being a minor under the infulence. Then you find out that his girlfriend does acid with other guys, and that makes him jelous. Obviously we have a real winner here. So they were drinking at some friends house when a parent comes home. So about 8 people squeeze into a Honda Accord. They all go to Alice's party and Ryan makes out with another girl (not his girlfriend). He gets a call from someone saying that his girlfriend is cheating so he rushes out of the party in anger. On this way out, he hits a librarian walking across the road and drives away. No one ever caught him and he suffered no consequences.
Lockheed
This story is about a girl that just moved schools and has no friends. The reason why it is called Lockheed is because that was where she did her summer internship. Which instead of working she drew. Her only friend was her cousin Jamie who invited her to a house party. When they got there she didnt talk to anyone and sat on a couch by herself. Then Ronny Feldman sat down next to her. They started talking and she loved that he was the only one being nice to her. While they are talking some guy comes up and saying something to him and they start fighting. They went outside and by the time the girl also got outside Ronny was lying on the ground. Everyone cleared away when a big white SUV came through the yard and ran over Ronny. He died and she stopped drawling.
This story was so sad. I had to stop and think about it for a second because it shocked me. But, it's cool that i have been to the compay Lockheed where she was interning. Its kind of like and airforce thing, where they bulit stuff for it. My dad used to work there for a few years in Florida.
American History
American History is about a sophmore in high school named jeremy. He is in history class and they are acting out a sceen about slavery. His partner gets really defensive when he makes racist comments and he notices it makes this girl smile. So he keeps on pushing the kids buttons and everyone in the class is laughing about how mad this guy is getting. Later after school he decides to call this girl to hang out: it doesn't go well. The next day in gym he is jumped by the kid he was making fun of in history but he still decides to go to his next class. The teacher makes him leave and on his way out he yells "i did it for you" to the girl. But while in the office he finds out that girl was a huge slut. So, it wasn't even worth it.
Killing Animals
Killing animals is basically about some kid that likes to shoot birds and animals with his bb guns and paintball guns with his friends. One day he trys to hit something but it hits a window and shatters it. A man comes chasing after them and tells them that normally his baby sleeps under that window. Luckily she wasn't there. They say sorry and leave. They also suffered no consequences and will probably continue to be annoying people that this earth does not need anymore of.
This story wasn't that great. The kids were annoying and I didn't want to read about them killing helpless animals.
Emily
Emily is a girl who participates in many sexual acts, not a very good person. While at a party she finds some guy she barley knows and brings him up to a room. She does things with him and then they go back down stairs. She sees that guy talking and lauging with Adam. At another party Adam leads her to the neighbors pool. He starts to take his clothes off and gets in the pool but she refuses to get in. So he pushes her in with all of her clothes on and leaves her. Later when she is at her house she hears a constant knocking at her door. She doesn't answer it but she thinks its Adam, always bothering her.

All I have to comment on is this guy. He is basically a loser. It was sad to read this story knowing that it does actually happen and there are people like that out there.
