Sensory detail:Sound


The baby crys and hollers desperately wanting to be heard. With it's tiny eyes closed shut it waits for something even just the slightest sound to come travel into it's ittyy bitty ears. The baby won't stop crying untill it knows it's been heard. The baby feels it's all alone and and feels no ones paying any attention. It feels stuck not being able to move it's legs dangling and arms by its face. The frustration of the child brings small drops over tears. Tears dripping to it's ears. Face becoming pink then darkening with little veins starting to sprout. Fist balled up nails digging deep it it's palms. A ring of whiteness where it's finger tips met with it's flesh. Eyes squinted so tightly creating little bags under them. It trys to reach out for help peacfuly but it can't. It takes another route to scream and begg as loud as it possibly can. Mouth opening with a tiny cry for help then closing then repeating untill it's all out of sounds. When it finds that no ones listening it curls up into a little ball and restest.

The Locker Problem



Numbers are left open is because, they are the numbers that have multiples of square roots or the amount of factors are odd. The pattern was that before every open locker there were two more closed lockers then the section before it. So for example there are ten lockers and locker one is open then tow and three are closed. Then locker 4 is open and five, six, seven, and eight are closed. This pattern goes on until the number of closed lockers add up to 961 and we are left with only 31 lockers open. Since we started off with 1,000 lockers both amounts of closed and open lockers should add up to 1,000.
