They play the same music every single year, that just gets really old for example the cupid shuffle that song is for a four-year not seniors in high school. The backgrounds for the pictures from freshman year of homecoming was the freakiest background ever that was with Ronald McDonald as the background, let me just say that was really stupid of the guy that thought it was a good background. I don't like how people have to roll a dice for the breathalyzer test, I think everyone should take the breathalyzer …show more content…
My coaches pushed me to be the best person I could be on and off the field. I could have a nice conversation with my coach about my everyday life and he would help me out if I had any problems. They also helped me strengthen my knee to be able to play football by the next year. My teachers that I'm friends with are Mr. Swantek, Mr. coach Hunt. I met both of them my junior year. They were so easy to talk to especially Mr coach Hunt because he was my baseball coach It was easier and he just graduated from college that also made it easier to talk to him. Mr. Swantek is now easy to talk to because of ping pong every day and lifting in the weight room every day with

    When I was plugging in the “BEPARTOFTIMEINATOR”, I got a message from my classmate saying,”Chris did you do the History work on the renaissance”. Then I replied,” OH NO I forgot to do it.” Then as the “BEPARTOFTIMEINATOR” powered up I dialed “1495, Leonardo Da Vinci, the maker of The Last Supper” into the keypad. The machine made engine noises and it opened up a vortex.…

    It says in the book of acts that "and they said, believe on the lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, And thy house" (act 16:31, KJV). Looking back on my passed five years of knowing Jesus I would describe it as a rollercoaster ride. Back in sixith grade I was going through a transition from Crosswalk to Hang time, Elementary School to middle school, and ultimately finding who I was and knowing Jesus. It was my 2011 Hangtime Winter Whiteout when I accepted Jesus into my life. Every year we do this thing called " Cry Night " that Winter Whiteout in particular we watched clips from "The Passion of Christ " and it was to the song " How He Loves " by David Crowder.…

    In the past few years, I’ve volunteered with a variety of organizations from National Honor Society, National Spanish Honor Society, and Key Club. I have also co-founded a Community Outreach Club at high school. Through the Church I’ve assisted with Vacation Bible School and middle school retreats. One of my favorite memories came from volunteering for the first time with National Spanish Honor Society. Choosing to participate in this program was not a difficult decision, since I knew I wanted to continue practicing my Spanish and volunteer in the community at the same time.…

    “Our enemies have made the mistake that America’s enemies always make. They saw liberty and thought they saw weakness. And now, they see defeat.” George W. Bush stated this about the cowardly September 11th attacks. During that fateful day I was glued to my poorly constructed high school chair, gazing in disbelief what was unfolding on Mr. Cox’s History class television.…

    The most memorable unit from my educational experience occurred in my twelfth grade English class. The unit was a comparative reading about Beowulf and Gilgamesh, which entailed several discussion based lectures and a final paper comparing the archetypes of heroes and characters. For me, this unit was so interesting as we discussed what made a hero and the hero’s journey, during this time I was writing my own book. I connected with this lesson because of my experiences outside school; with this said, a friend of mine who was in the class with me recalls the unit as well. Though, our opinions of it differ.…

    “One of the secrets of life is making stepping stones out of stumbling blocks.” –Jack Penn As my thoughts raced and mocked every ounce of confidence that I could have possibly possessed, I impatiently prepared for what was about to come. It was finally my time to be in the limelight—my time to share my God-given talents. I came from a shy and insecure mindset, but being chosen for the soloist position in a new style of worship would change everything for me.…

    I had similar experience, which was explained in No.1, on the edge of entering. I was church shopping when I came to the USA 20 years ago. I went to almost every church in the town. I didn’t feel welcomed, most churches wanted to convert me to Christianity in spite of telling them I am a Christian. For most of them since I am from India I am a Hindu and I need to be converted to Christianity.…

    On March 18, 2012, an unlikely group of men gathered at 3:30 am in the Mormon town of Huntsville, Utah. They were Catholic Monks of the Order of Cicstercians of the Strict Observance (Trappists) performing a routine most of them have been doing for more than 60 years; rising in the middle of the night to attend Vigils and to pray together by chanting Psalms and doing the readings of the Divine Office. That night, an even more improbable person participated in the Liturgy of the Hours—a convinced atheist. I was that unbeliever. I felt completely at home, as I had participated in the same routine more than 30 years earlier when I had joined the Dominican Order as a young man beginning studies for the priesthood.…

    As a child in elementary school my favorite time of the day was recess and lunchtime, like any other child in my fourth grade class. I remember learning how to tell time just so I could tell when I was about to be called for bus riders. At lunch my friends would mix their food together and dare each other to eat it, getting all of us at the table in trouble at lunch by Mrs. Cothrin, my fourth grade teacher. My favorite challenge on the playground would be the monkey bars. I liked the monkey bars because you had to hold on to them to get across to the other side without falling.…

    An experience to me is something that is unforgettable, that one thing that means a little extra to you and something that will have a lasting effect on you. I travel in reverse to the little girl standing in the mirror and daydreaming of one day becoming not only an amazing basketball player, but a great person in general as well. I watched and mimicked Allen Iverson on the tv to the best of my abilities as my brother did, then I grew. It all started for me at a young age and I began using my talents right from the get go. I pursued a new journey in ninth grade to better myself as an individual, and a basketball player.…

The reason that this was life changing included getting closer to my friends by doing things we could not do at home. This included me going on hikes, jumping off of rocks, and lastly talking over some good old milk shakes.…

    On August 26, 2005, I gave my life to Christ, and it was the start of a whole new chapter of my journey. I still remember that night vividly in my head. The feelings of excitement, joy, and love were very tangible in my heart. My mom and dad were both sitting beside me on my bed while I was told the importance of this decision and how my life would never be the same. Even at 5 years old, I was aware of my decision to follow Jesus and accept him into my heart.…

    During my childhood and lower teens, I was very involved in church. I would go to every event or meeting put on by our church. Watching certain senior youth members, I didn’t understand why they would just come to the fun events. I would only see them during our mission trips or camps, but never at business or regular meetings. Then I promised myself that I would always stay as active as I could.…
