" Hi", Henry finally says making my thoughts crumble with the sound of his voice." Hi, uh... What are u doing here?", did I really just say that?! He must think i'm stupid or something! " Oh...Um... I was just giving a stroll around the neighborhood, and saw u here. What book are you reading?". Just a stroll around his neighborhood? So why is he so far away from it? " I'm reading Marley and Me. Have you ever read it?" He sits on the pourch

    Marley floor has nearly killed me, but it’s also shown me who my family is. It’s an awful material that requires a lot of time and work to be put down smooth and look nice. It’s some sort of vinyl that comes on PVC pipes, rolled up. Taping it down is an unbearably long and grueling process. One particularly hot Wednesday night, I was moving rolls of flooring into the auditorium from the lobby.…

    As a child, my parents shaped me into their ideal image of a little girl. The formation of their ideals actually started long before I first opened my eyes in the hospital. My story began back in 1988, when my parents met while working at Walt Disney World as cultural exchange workers from Canada. Their romance is a fairy tale. They had their first date at the Magic Kingdom, they spent all their days off on a Florida beach, and they experienced the technical magic that Disney is so well-known for.…

    I was visiting my family in minnesota, staying at my Aunt’s house a few weeks before my birthday. I was watching cartoons with her and significantly older-than-me cousin in their shared bedroom. I can faintly remember the room, Table in one corner, and two separate beds in the other. An ancient boxed tv sat at the foot of their beds, with the VHS tape built in. We all joked around, hitting each other with pillows during previews and drinking soda past 10 pm.…

    Growing up in Jamaica was not what some may think as ideal, it has been described as a Third World Country, but to me, it was just home. Third world indeed, poor, violent at times; a contradiction, with its sandy beaches, clear blue skies, delectable food, feel good music, and some of the hardest working people one can ever have the pleasure of meeting, who refused to stay where life may have placed them, but strived to climb above those circumstances and attempt to carve out a life for themselves and their children. Let me introduce you to the Jamaica that I grew up in and remembered; I remember the endless summer holidays growing up off the Sligoville Road, in a small district called Mt. Moreland, where the playground…

    The id, ego, and superego are three parts of the human personality which are part of Sigmund Freud's psychoanalytic personality theory. These three parts combine to create the different aspects of human behavior patterns. This can be used to determine Henry Turner’s life, with using his natural ID in life more than his superego, he becomes a person that not many can stand to be around and makes the people he care about not able to stand him. This leads him to do many wrongful doings that he doesn’t even realize he is participating in. However, in my opinion, Henry Turner’s natural state would have to be his superego state due to after an accident occurring in this film, his actions and thoughts would prove to others that this would be his true state.…

    My parents told me we were moving to Cincinnati, Ohio. My heart sank because all my friends were there and all my memories. But, one day my parents told me to go to the grocery store and try to meet new friends in my new neighborhood. I thought it was a terrible idea but, when I got to the checkout with all my food, there was a great guy bagging my items. My heart told me I was in love with him the moment he dropped my mayonnaise and the container hit the tile, and the green cap opened and the smelly liquid came out of the jar all over the freshly cleaned floor.…

    In August of 2011, I was eleven; my older sister Kyle, 18 at the time, was arrested with six felony charges: three theft and three check fraud. Over the past year, she had been stealing money and forging checks: cashing them and getting money to support her drug addiction. In October, she was released to a halfway house in Elizabeth and stayed there for 90 days. Later, in 2012, she was arrested again for the same charges. At that time I was thirteen and barely understood why my sister would do this.…

I Learned what it meant to be a grown up…

    The most recent conflict which I was involved in, is when I started college at the University of South Carolina Salkehatchie. I majored in Education to become a teacher, knowing teaching wasn’t what I really wanted to do. I went because it was what my mother’s wanted me to do. I was torn between teaching and the medical field. Teaching seemed easier than going into the medical field, and my mother didn’t want me to struggle in the medical field like she did to get her degree.…
