My essay about institutions was not meant to scare anyone just to just to let them know how I felt and way I was in an institution. I am sorry if my essay offended anyone or made them unease. That was not my intent I just wanted the sane to see what it was like on the other side no more no less.
Thank you

"What is an Institution?"
Going
in the smell of alcohol woof over the senses, and as one looks around they see
white walls and sometimes gray or white floors. There are gray racks ware the
white linen is stored. To find what a Mental Institution is we must take a look
on the inside. First off there are nurses, orderlies, than there are the
doctors. The rooms are about 12 by 12 and two to a room. There is a large
common room, and several conference rooms. So what is a Mental Institution?
A Mental Institution is a place
for those who are Mentally Ill to get help to get better.
There are also Institutions for the
criminally insane. These places are there to keep the mentallyill medicated. Most all mentally ill people need to stay on these medications for the rest of their
lives. These places also deal with electro-shock treatments. Some patients need to be
restrained either by leather restraints or by strait jackets or even restrained chemically. There
are some who even need to be put in a padded room.
Being mental ill I have been in and out of these places
a lot and I can tell you they are on
fun. They serve bad food, some of the people smell because they do not know
what a shower is, and they soil themselves. Even so I have never experienced electro-shock treatment but I know
people who have. All I know about electro-shock therapy is that they hock your head up to
electrodes much the same way as they do for an ECT scan. Electro-shock therapy seem a little
barbaric to me I am glad it is getting used less with the invention of new and better medications.
medication and psycho analysis are the wave of the future. I just went and saw my psych Doc.
and he changed my meds so that hopefully I can concentrate better on what I am doing and not
the voices. The voices are so bad at times I just want to give in to them and start killing everyone
I see but somehow I am able to keep it together. I does bring me to tires though. I cannot stand
the voices sometimes I even want to kill myself. For these reasons I have in and out of
institutions and hospitals since I was nine.
In closing I would just like to say that institutions are good place for the mentally
Ill like myself to get away for the rest of the world, and have time, and medication to recover
from the stress of life.

April 11, 2014

before the 32 days and will just be giving reports on how I am doing.

personally I do not think this is a good idea because it invites plagiarism and someone will get sued. I for one cannot afford to get sued. If everyone used this then they would not develop there own writing style everyone would write the same. This in it's self would create problems in that the teacher would think that one person wrote all the papers, and everyone would fail the class, and possibly be expelled.

A Pigeons Tail
I see you have a bagel I want the bagel give it to me please? That's all just a piece that wouldn't even be a taste. What happened where am I hay what is this. If I push this the thing I am in bonces, and I can chase people for a change in stead of them chasing me. What dose this thing do wooo it is like pooping straight a I can do it anywhere at any time. OK hand over that bagel. So I aim these laser guns at the man and he offers me the bagel. I gently land the case and cautiously precede to head toward the man to get my prize when he tried to ambush me so I got back in the box, and aimed a rocket at him. He still tricked me thou by throwing the bagel up in the air he caught me off guard, and smacked me away form the case. What I saw to be my bagel fell into the case hitting the big bed circle in the center of the case. This action caused a big round bird to erupt for a large pillar in the ground. I saw the case rocket off with the man in tow I am hot on his heels after my bagel. I hit the man trying to get him to release my bagel but he dose not. I land on the case he aims his guns at me I think oh shit I'm a goner now, but when he hit the trigger click click it do not fire. I thought I was lucky but then up pops missile, and I start to kiss my tail feathers good bye. I close my eyes then snap, pop I am not dead I open my eyes to see the bagel falling to the ground. I follow my prize to the ground and preceded to eat it. The man landed a few minutes later we exchanged glances, and went our own why. All of a sudden ow the big bird that the man shot down landed on me. Don't worry I am alright after all I am the Pigeon.

“Something
I Cook”
I
like to cook chicken fried hamburgers. To start take a couple of eggs and beat
them in a bowl. Then mix flower, seasoning salt, and pepper in another bowl so
there are two different batters. Now it’s time to make the hamburger patties.
Start by rolling the hamburgers into balls than flatten those balls into a patties.
Now it’s time to take the patties and dip them in the eggs, after that put them
in the flower mixture, then back in the eggs, and again in the flower. Now let
them be for a minute and prep the pan. I use an electric pan and heat it to one
hundred and fifty degrees with a little oil in the pan. Put the patties in the
pan and let cook for a couple of minutes on each side. While they cook take a
little time to cut some tomatoes, onions, and lettuce. By the time the veggies
are cut the patties should be done. Now it’s time to make the sandwiches. Making
the sandwiches on bread or bun is O.K. Taking the bun put miracle whip on it.
Add lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and pickle if desired. That is how to make
chicken fried hamburgers.
This recipe my friend Dale Jones gave me may sound greasy but it is really quite tasty, but it is
also quite greasy. On a sandwich with miracle whip, lettuce tomato, pickles and onion it is to die for.
I add even more cholesterol by making onion rings to go with it. Wow grease city. Can you tell my
friend and i like our greasy food? When biting into the sandwich the mouth explodes with the
taste burger and fried chicken blowing ones mind. Just anticipating the flavors that are about to
enter the mouth make the pallet start to water.
To come up with this idea my friend was cooking chicken fried steak and had some thawed out
hamburger so he thought what if. So he tried it and that is how his creation came to be. We eat it
at least once every three months and it is different a lot of the time. Sometimes we cook the cheese
into the breading and sometimes I add jalapenos to mine. In closing I would just like to add
do not knock it tell you try it.
