                                               Context and Reflection
                          The assignment I chose is my story of the time I got back at my cousin. The assignment is entitled "Trigger Sensitive BB Gun".  This Slice of life was an obvious choice for this assignment because it is an easy story to tell(that and it was my only choice). This BB Gun piece clearly shows that what happened to my cousin was not all that bad and he had it coming. Trigger Sensitive BB Gun is an example of what I learned as it features revenge/karma in my writing. I wanted to show off this story because it shows that at times people must do what's right in their mind.




                                             Trigger Sensitive BB Gun.


                        I remember the night I shot my cousin in the back with a BB Gun. That night he beat up my little brother then attacked me. I knew I had to get back at him. I found his BB Gun, made sure it was loaded, and waited until we were alone. My feelings were jumbled together, the feel of the cold hard metallic gun, the sound of it going off, then the indent on his shoulder.


                                               About the author
In general, I'm a good/absent minded student. My teachers(or at least some of them) would say I'm a disruptive student but in reality they don't realize I have A.D.D. Which prevents me from doing things that bore me. As a student in general, I try my best with things that I dislike.
