Pre-Writing Assignment: Snippet

               As a part of our English class writing group work assignments, my class has been asked to write a narrative essay according to a snippet that was displayed in our classroom. In collaboration with my classmate and friend Rania, here's our essay of the snippet from 'Carrie'. 

Carrie: The Prank 
        "... and the prom queen of this year is Carrie!" announced the principle faintly. Oh! The element of astonishment on her peers' faces while Carrie herself walked up to the stage, ever so confidently, with evident ecstasy at the mention of her name.

         Her peers with their rounded eyes cheered and clapped so loudly you'd mistake them for Carrie's friends. It wasn't too soon when the crowd's cheers fainted as the principle settled her crown on top of her well curled locks of gold. A huge bucket drowned in pig's blood was soon hugging Carrie and soaking her prestigious dress, and those who once cheered now laugh for their glorious success in humiliating the girl. 

          Instead of humiliation, rage has embraced her eyes and caressed her provokingly, as if luring her to follow an infernal plan of revenge. It is no surprise that she listened to her diabolic conscience. She then poured her rage out into a disgraceful fire; burning her entire school along with those who were present to witness her humiliation.

      I just subconsciously put it up because it's not a raven.
