My family also supported and encouraged me to do some things that I typically did not do but wanted to. No matter what activity was, my family helped me get whatever I needed and also supported me by showing up at various performances and events. Though this act may seem minuscule, it meant a lot to know that I had people who were proud of me and would always love me no matter if I succeeded or failed. Altogether, I know that without the support of my friends and family, I would not be the person that I am…

My favorite place is Six Flags, it is a yearly necessity, for lasting memories, great food, and Fright Fest.…

The best things in life are the people we love the places we’ve been and the memories we’ve made along the way (Anonymous). Two months ago my family and I decided to go to Ohio for Thanksgiving.

“You’re going on” said Kingsley, with a stubborn look on her face. “I can’t” I told her, “ I don’t have my pass yet.” Kingsley, Emma, Lauren, Kendall and I had just left the party at Kalahari in Wisconsin, where we were staying for nationals, to go to the amusement park. It was my first time in there that year and they had just came out with a new ride, the 360. Everyone wanted me to go on, including me, the problem was I didn’t have my pass yet.…
Are We There Yet? “Hurry!!” I yelled. “I am going to be sick!”. The family dodge flew onto the shoulder of the Trans Canada Highway and came to a hurried stop.…
Christmas break in my opinion is probably the second best brake that we have throughout our school year. The main thing I like about Christmas break is how long it is. But even though I like how long we are off school it's almost like we don't have a break because basketball takes over. We get a few days off but the rest of the days are hitting the gym early in the mornings for two to three hours a day. The days I have is the best thing in the world because I get to relax and do something fun for once.…

This city in very special to my family because this is where we all came together to celebrate Christmas and Thanksgiving.…
My family forced wisdom, patience and valuable lessons in life onto my life. By they providing me with these important things that I needed to know, I 'm stronger, better equipped and more understanding to things I encounter in my life. Having family that’s full of wisdom and of kind nature has been the biggest gift that they could have ever given to me; my mother, father and Aunt Michelle were the main people in my life proving me with an essential guidance before it was even relevant to me for example, how to be happy all by myself, how love the little moments and victories that happen to me, and of course the how to pay bills and then…
