I said you made the comment that it has been a while since you have had kiddos. I said your daughter is five (5) years old correct. She said she just turned five (5) in August. She said she just won her, by paying for her in a bad custody suit. Her daughter’s name is Brooke.…
What interests me is that Donn Eisele had been a pilot for virtually his entire career. Donn Eisele's job on the Apollo 7 mission was piloting the spacecraft. In my opinion, I have always found it to be interesting and scary as a pilot, because it seems pretty cool to be manning vehicles that fly in the air, but you can also crash and blow up if things go wrong. While I do not want to be a pilot due to all the pressure of having to do everything right to avoid crashing, I respect the profession. What piques my interest even more is that Donn Eisele wasn't just any pilot.…
Transiting from high school to college is a frightening process for most people. I can agree. As the days of summer were coming to an end, my level of fear was just starting and increasing rapidly. As soon as I started, the jumpstart program didn’t seem like such a bad thing. I realized it was not as frightening as I thought.…
In twenty years, as a board member of a scholarship selection committee, I would award the 17-year-old me a scholarship not because I am simply answering the prompt in my favor, but because I know that the 17-year-old me's dream is to go to college to gain a higher education and has made learning a high priority since elementary school. The 17-year-old me is determined, hard-working, and understands the struggle of having little money, so I would know that the scholarship would not go to waste; she would use it so that her parents can ease their worry about how she is going to go to college, since they are not able to make any contributions. Knowing that her family earns little income, she has spent most of her high school years dedicating her time to her schoolwork, hoping that she would be qualified to earn scholarships during her senior year. During the other majority of her time, she has volunteered for over 300 hours at various locations and participating in school clubs and activities.…
Dare, A Regretful Education Have you ever wondered how the D.A.R.E. program worked in the United States? Well I can tell you this, if an officer that is involved with the D.A.R.E. program is trying to show you the impact of a substance, then why do you see them doing that same substance while off duty? They are either smoking a cigarette or guzzling booze until they are downright wasted, if this is the kind of inspiration that helps you stay away from substances, well it’d work better than what you’re learning from D.A.R.E. A multitude of people believe the D.A.R.E. program should be replaced with a different program that provides a new/better way to fight substance abuse, others believe D.A.R.E. should be able to help in the education…

They start walking to my railing to put their towels down, then go and check the water before they jump. I’m so glad that they finally found me. I was built for this.…
One of the first things to consider is that more is not always better. Whenever many of us first start out exercising with push-ups, we tend to overdo it and this can lead to a number of different problems. One of the most common problems that you're going to experience because of over exercising is burnout. Both are likely, this type of routine is only going to last four days before you are finished. Another problem that can occur is injury, and these are very common whenever you're first starting with a push-up workout.…
With the high demand for students to obtain a college degree, the majority of society assumes high school seniors should make college the next step in their lives. However, going to college and actually completing the journey is much easier said than done. Many factors such as the price of tuition, the increased competition for scholarships and admission, and the level of support and encouragement one has affect those "college times" in a person 's life. An aspect of this journey that really stands out to me is the use of programs that aid first-generation college students. From the financial aid to the programs ' mentoring benefits, these programs can make a huge difference in the lives of so many people hoping to obtain the education they…
