Two sisters sing about superiority of white people. I have never imagined that there could be little girls singing about killing other races in the world. However, this is not the whole story. They were controlled by their mother and grandfather and isolated from the society their whole life. They have both taught them about the extermination of other races since they were babies and the girls did not even go to ordinary school. They were home-schooled. In the end, both of the girls changed and attended public school. We learned how big the influence of a family is and not to judge people 's beliefs, because they might not studied or heard about the other

    The sport in its entirety is what I came to love. So, I’m still following a soccer-centric path as much as possible. Along the way, I guess my passion wasn’t seen by only me, later giving me the opportunity to become my school’s varsity team’s videographer, something I’ll never be able to fully express my gratitude for. It’s gotten to the point where bringing up the sport to friends is just verbal diarrhea for them. Yet, they’ve never gotten fed up, and that’s just it.…

    By the time I sprinted onto the field for the start of the Jefferson Cup soccer final I had mentally prepared myself for the fierce showdown ahead. I had been playing soccer for most of my short life, giving up all other sports to concentrate on being a top player. In fact my whole family was committed to the game, so I guess you could say that I eat, sleep, and breathe soccer. I sure hoped that all my hard work would be translated into a big win that day. As I readied myself for the refs whistle to announce the start of the game, the hair on my neck stood straight up, and the adrenaline rushed through my body, filling every vein and artery.…
