Crazy Neighbor- Lauren Ambrosino

This month we had to talk about something we have discussed/done in class. I thought a lot about what
we’ve done in class, and I couldn’t stop going back to when we talked about having crazy neighbors
since we basically spent a whole period talking about them. And I personally have some weird creepy
stories about my neighbors. My first one took place only a couple months ago when I was at home with
just my brother. My neighborhood is full of little boys in middle school and elementary school and are
always coming over to ask my brother to hang out. One day one of these little boys came over to ask
my brother to play, but instead of coming to the door and knocking he just stared at me through the glass
door. I was laying on my couch and looked up and he was just staring at me. Out of fear I hid under my
blanket and screamed for my brother. He was getting ready to leave and about ten minutes had passed
by. I look over at the window again and my neighbor was in the same exact spot outside my door staring
at me. Eventually my brother told him to cut it out and later we talked about it and he just said he’s creepy
like that sometimes. 

Another time, it was Superbowl Sunday and me and a few of the other neighbors were outside. The boys
I mentioned earlier were all outside riding bikes and scooters like any normal day. Then out of nowhere
a car comes racing down the road, swerving like crazy. He ended up running over my neighbors mailbox
and proceeding down the road. He took crazy turns around the curves as he sped down the street. He
ended up driving off the road, over the curb and down a hill into wooded area next to the road. His car
was stopped by a tree that kept it from rolling down the hill. When every adult went running and the man
came out of his car we found out the reasoning behind his reckless driving. He had only a couple fingers
on each hand! He was helped and the car was removed, but to this day me and the other neighbors talk
about the crazy driver.
