By this point, I don't care whether I live or die, Its just the case of whether I survive my missions, or I don't. Unfortunately, in this corrupt society that we dwell in, money is everything, and for people so lacking in that area as me, we would do anything to make a buck.

My job is life threatening, and means that everyday, I come closer to death than ever before. It puts me in intense situations which no sane man would ever dare to enter.

As the pain I look around me to see a room, a very well kept modern, fancy room. The walls are lined with picture frames, many of which – like green bottles sitting on a wall – fall to the ground, shatter, then join the broken glass specifically photos of a young girl and her parents. The man in the photos seemed familiar, I recognized him. Suddenly, It struck me. The man in the photo, was my target, The man I was hired to kill standing joyfully alongside his family. As my brain swims against the current, the room fades to

I entered the cafeteria at 1pm like always, I wanted to buy turkey slices. When I started to grab my first piece of turkey with the tong that is set out to use, Mercedes told me in an angry manner, “Don't grab the turkey slices, (when I pick out turkey slices, I usually pick the smallest and thinnest piece, Mercedes doesn't like this), you don't have to make the turkey into little pieces”.

The Junior Varsity game had just finished the second period, which indicated I had about 45 minutes until the Varsity went on for warmups. Walking into the locker room from my usual pre-game routine, I sat down next to my hockey bad rearranging everything in the specific order I would put it on.

    The redemption of Mother Nature’s liveliness from the laziness of winter marks the beginning of spring. On a joyful spring day, my Mother deemed it appropriate to begin the annual cleaning of the cramped living structure attached to our motel, which we proudly called “home.” During the tedious process of re-organizing my room, I found a dusty briefcase containing many aged, crippled documents and a beautiful framed picture of my Mother. My 9-year-old self was in a perplexed state as I re-gazed at the picture in awe when my Mother told me that the “picture” was actually a drawing created by a local villager in India. This moment sparked an inextinguishable desire within me to create realistic artwork using the minimal art media that I had.…

    “Throwing Down The Gauntlet On My Life” I’m a junior at Presbyterian Pan American School. I was born in Brownsville, Texas, but since my parents are Mexican nationals, I grew up in San Fernando, Tamaulipas, Mexico. In 2013, my parents told me to “pack your bags” you are going to Kingsville, Texas.

Talking about different aspects of my life is daunting, but it also allows me to come to terms with my growth as an individual by learning from my failures, confronting obstacles such as adapting to new surroundings, and a different educational system, speaking English properly, and adjusting to a real world working environment.…

    It is 7:23 a.m. on a Thursday morning, the pass allowing tardiness to first hour is tucked away in my tattered blue backpack. I sit in my car gazing at the quiet building. I have seven minutes to make it up the staircase, adorned with two lamp posts. I, along with many others, have visited Morgan Federal, the bank across the street, countless times and never realized just what was in the vicinity. A friend who works next door in the courthouse suggested I profile this place and gave the directions: “It’s in the old jail,” as if that was a common reference automatically understood.…
