reflect back on my high school life I realize that I have no regrets. My life would have been completely different if it were not for my best friends and my family. I have known my best friend Maya since the 3rd grade. Usually friendships like that do not last but luckily our relationship gets stronger as we grow older. My other best friend, Aurora, I got to know her in middle school and all three of us have been inseparable since. I honestly believe that if I had not been friends with them I would…
them. I stopped by my locker to grab all of my books and then hurried out to my shiny gold Toyota Camry. I quickly put my key into the ignition and backed out of my parking spot. I stepped on the gas pedal to beat all of the idiot drivers that don 't know how to wait their turn. Once at the stoplight, I took a sharp right turn onto 86th Avenue. I was headed towards my friend Logan’s house to go on a bike ride with my fellow friends. I did not know within the next hour my hand would be covered…
My Dearest Friend, I fear the worse for my young and still developing country. Our goal Manifest Destiny has almost been met but with the spread of Americans across the continent seems to come the spread of the appalling act of slavery. These damn southerners have no clue to how to make an honest living. They force their slaves out into the field while they sit there and drink tea. At the end of the day, they go to count their cotton and then reap the rewards. Meanwhile, the slaves live in squalor…
rest of my life. After brainstorming what to do I finally decided that a backpacking trip would be perfect. I saw this as a time to challenge myself and this would help prepare me for my new life out of high school and the perfect place to challenge myself were the cascades in central Washington. So I called up my lifelong friend Noah King. Noah has the same personality as me if he sees a challenge he’s going to attempt it. So with that I knew I had the perfect partner to go with me on my journey…
distinct type of person. My words vary, I may get stumbled up, or even make snarly comments. All of which depends on the type of person I talk to. I talk differently to my friends, through text, to new people, to my father, and to my family. The first group of people is my friends. While I am with my friends, I am usually free and do not feel constrained. Often I joke a great deal and find myself always saying “just kidding”. Whether I am making a joke or picking on a friend, I always seem to add,…
Have you ever wondered why your best friend is actually your best friend? Is it just because you have known them all of your life? Or is it simply because you just like to hang out with them? My best friend is as unique as they come. I have watched and admired his way of life over the past eight years. My friends' name is Mike Linn. Mike and I met in the sixth grade. He immediately stood out to me. There was just something about him that caught my eye. He had short messy brown hair as if he had just…
was tired of the loneliness it brought to me, the same day lived out day after day. But in all reality I was terrified to say yes until one night in the heart of Tennessee, my best friend asked if I’d join her in the move down. Sick and tired of the people and the dreary winters I finally said yes. It was decided. My best friend and I would make our journey after her graduation to join a community of unity. It was always a question, something I’d never wanted to commit to, but things were changing…
My friend Every person needs a friend. Friends are very important in our life. I think you cannot live without friends. A friend is a person who always there for you. Your close friend or best friend is a person whom you can trust with everything no matter what happens. Your true friend is always ready to help you. To support you if you do something wrong and to solve problems together with you. They say that “a friend in need is a friend indeed”. I think it is really so. A friend is someone whom…
to go golfing with my best friend Dylan. The weather was perfect for a day of golfing. It was sunny, and it was about 80 degrees with a nice breeze. I’ve only been golfing a few times, but I am starting to get into it more. I am definitely not a professional golfer, but I love the sport. Dylan pulled in the driveway around 9:30, you could hear the horn from inside the house. I grabbed my stuff and walked to his car. We were blasting music in the car just goofing off like friends do. It took about…
on what the two-ness of my identity is, I asked some of my friends different questions about what they think of me, and compared their thoughts to what I think of myself. I asked two of my close friends two questions. What they thought of me when they first met me or before they knew me well, and what they think of me now. I asked two of my other friends, who I’m not as close with, what they think of me now, and what they thought about me when we first met. My closest friend, Lilly said that her first…
