Cinderella story continued

"Chloe, there is a rat in my room! Mom told you to clean it or you will be sleeping outside! Better start packing up!" My stuck up step sister screeched. Hi I am Chloe. I live with my step mother and my step sisters, Britney and Samantha. They are so obnoxious and self centerd they make me feel like dirt. Not saying that I didn't already feel like dirt. My dad died in the army, so I went to live with his second wife, my step mom, veronica. My mom died giving birth to my brother. But he died  two days after birth. So ever sense, I have been thinking of how happy i would be with my real family. But i don't have time for that. I have been planning on getting an acedemic scholarship to Harvard. So i have to keep my head in the game. right now im on my way to school. Veronica was convinced that having me driving in the car with dumb and dumber, would ruin their glow that took them two hours in the bathroom doing. so I'm on the bus. "hey Chloe, whatcha doing?" maddie asked me. maddie is my best friend. we have been friends since 2nd grade. now we're in 12th grade, ready to fly off on our own, to college. "oh nothin, just day dreaming" I reply. "well, don't sit there! what were you dreaming about?!" I look away trying not to reveal the secret with a clear tone. "the Halloween dance." I muffle into my jacket. "why? it's just a dance. it's not like anybody will ask you to go. the bus comes to a complete stop. i grab my backpack and race off of the bus, trying to ignore maddie's stupid comment. maddie drags behind me trying to stop me. " Chloe. chloe! it's not a big deal. it's just a stupid high school dance. nobody likes us. we're not popular. you have to exept that." I stop and turn around

" So because we're not popular, we can't have a good time at a party?! if that's what your trying to say, then I'm not talking to you for a long while!" maddie turns a bright red in her cheeks. "FINE! if you want to learn the hard way, so be it!"
I didn't know what to do with maddie. she is always so difficult. she never understands what it would be like in my shoes. how hard it is to live with my family. I thought friends were always there to understand you and comfort you. maybe maddie isn't my friend. But I can't say that to her! she would be devastated. luckily I have one more actual friend. his name is Brian. he is like the brother I've never had. literally. he's awesome! every Tuesday we go to ramby's resturaunt to get smoothies. I bet rambling rasberry berry, and he gets lucky peanut piƱa colada pineapple with a hint of mustard. it sounds as gross as a sewer rat. I've never tried it because I was scared I would wake up in the emergency room getting my stomach pumped! so I stick to the usual.

Mayor of Southfield 
26000 evergreen Rd, Southfield MI 48076

dear mrs.mayor,

Hello mayor of Southfield. I have a complaint and sending it to you will probably change how things are around here.This fall one of the houses on my street caught on fire and burned down. But the insurance company or whatever, built a new house. Then another house a couple houses down caught fire and burned down also. But instead of rebuilding it, they boarded it up and let it sit.



 The cause of this action was the fact that the fire started and the house burned down. When the family moved out of the house, it wasn't fixed and it still sits there at this moment.  they had a chance al through winter to rebuild the house. but I guess that would be a bad idea because snow would concave into the house. but the house still sits to this moment, even though it is spring, when you can rebuild the house.



If you drive down between 12 and 13 mile road, and drive into pinewood manor, turn right onto Ventura street. Once you are there, there will be a reddish brown house with a tan garage and a white door, well, not so much a door, more of a white wooden board. (This is evidence that I am not lying about any of this).



A solution to this problem would be to have housing company's fix boarded up houses because soon a homeless person would need somewhere to live, so they live in a vacant house. And eventually they are going to get cold, so they light matches or something to start a fire. And if they don't use the right materials, it could start a fire and burn the house down, again. 



in conclusion, abandon houses are not safe and they are taking up the worlds space. I am telling you this because you make the rules around here, and I'm thinking you can take down such destroyed buildings. Thank you for your time, mr/mrs.mayor.


sincerely,

letter of complaint 4.4.14

Complaint letter rough draft 

from:  Birmingham Covington School  1525 Covington Rd. Bloomfield Hills,MI 48301

To: 

Introduction:

 This fall one of the houses on my street caught on fire and burned down. But the insurance company or whatever, built a new house. Then another house a couple blocks down caught fire and burned also. But instead of rebuilding it, they boarded it up and let it sit.

Problem Statement:

 The cause of this action was the fact that the fire started and the house burned. When the family moved out of the house, it wasn't fixed and it still sits there at this moment.

Problem background:

Last fall there was a fire inside of a reddish brown house on Ventura street in Southfield, MI. I guess the family didn't have insurance, so they just moved.then there housing company thought it would be a good Idea to just board up the house, not rebuild it, and let it sit there for about a year.

Far reaching effects & related issues (evidence) 

If you drive down between 12 and 13 mile road, and drive into pinewood manor, turn right onto Ventura street. Once you are there, there will be a reddish brown house with a tan garage and a white door, well, not so much a door, more of a white wooden board. (This is evidence that I am not lying about any of this).

Proposed solution: 

A solution to this problem would be to have housing company's fix boarded up houses because soon a homeless person would need somewhere to live, so they live in a vacant house. And eventually they are going to get cold, so they light matches or something to start a fire. And if they don't use the right materials, it could start a fire and burn the house down, again.
