My hair is always curled in a way that frames my face, my makeup…

Bigger Than I Really Am It was a normal summer afternoon when my mom called me into her bedroom. I had no ideas what to do for my 15th birthday on July 16th. I figured I would just see a movie, just like everyone normally does. I recently picked up an interest in Marvel movies and characters and my mom had actually taken notice. “Why don’t you go to this Wizard World thing? That Stan Lee guy you talk about is going to be there, and some Walking Dead characters.” Stan Lee is one of the original…

In World War I, what is considered to be the first modern war, familiar weapons such as cannons and rifles were remodeled and more dangerous. Out of them all, the weapon that caused the most death was the artillery. Automatic rifles and machine guns gave soldiers less time reloading and more time shooting. Poisonous gases such as chlorine and mustard gas were new things these soldiers had to look out for. It was the first use of chemical weapons. Tanks were also a new weapon that men in the…

The day I drove across the country to start a new life I learned how to accept my past, take on new challenges and plan for the future. It was a snowy February day. The snow had started to come down harder, the ice was thickening on the roads and I had an anxious puppy in the car. Just a few months before everything was very different. I had a solid job, what I had thought was happiness, and a great home. When she decided to leave my world turned upside down. Now I was sitting in my Nissan;…

I am going to start out by apologizing because this is going to be long. But I believe everything I say is worthy of saying so I hope you don’t just give up and stop reading. I am a person that doesn’t particularly like school. Something about being stuck in a classroom for seven hours and force fed facts I don’t always want to learn just has me counting down the days till summer. So are there things I would change about the school system? Yes. Is there an aspect I wouldn’t change about the…
