An Essay about me wearing the shoes of Holden Caulfield from Catcher in the Rye that I have written for a school assignment.

            Getting home from school that day my parents flip on me because of the incident in school earlier that day.  The phony staff at Neshaminy calls your house if you do something bad at school.  That staff makes me want to run away because of how phony they are.  They all dress up for school each day thinking they are going on a cruise or meeting the president.  It makes no sense to me why they need to dress up for a boring day at a boring school. 

            After being yelled at by my parents I laid in my bed thinking of a plan to get kicked out of school and moving to Lancaster.  The plan was to fail all my classes and drop out of school.  After doing all these bad things in school my parents would for sure kick me out of the house.

            Two weeks later I managed to fail all my classes.  It now is the beginning of Christmas break and my parents have not heard the news yet.  I plan to leave the house before they hear of the news.  The second day of break I pack up some cloths and head out of the house only saying good bye to my younger sister Kelly.

            It took me two hours to walk down to the train station in Penndel a town near Langhorne.  Getting on the train I slept all the way until I arrived to Lancaster.  When reached Lancaster I decided to call my sister Kelly and tell her I made it here safely.  Over the phone Kelly cries knowing she won’t be seeing me for a long period of time.  I told her I would call her in two days when I am situated. 

            Two days later I am living in a crappy hotel with no running water and I am getting a little homesick.  I decided to call Kelly like I told her I would.  When she answers the phone she can’t shut her mouth because my lost cousin I told you about was found.  My cousin was actually kidnapped and left to die in an open field when a pedestrian walking her dog found her.  The cops suspect it was her dad because he had a murder record and earlier in Kelly’s life she was given a death note from her father through the mail.  That note could not be tracked by the cops.

            While talking to Kelly I told her I am coming back for good because my cousin is back and I’m getting homesick.  I just hope my parents would accept me back home for what I have done. 

            When arriving home the next day my parents are relieved to see I am in good health and back home with them.  They have heard the news and are sending me to private school.  I know I deserve it but I’m just glad to be back home living with my cousin and family.
