Smack! The ball rolls off my hand and lands straight on the ground. The constant replay of these motions race through my mind. Bump, set, spike, bump set spike! About a year ago, I was sitting on the bleachers cheering on the Morrison varsity volleyball girls team during their ACSC (Asia Christian Schools Conference) tournament. While I was watching I fell in love with the sport and I strived to be like one of those players someday. I played volleyball non-stop since the beginning of middle…

the cover of a feathered beaver, and a long cloth habit, which she was obliged to hold up with both hands that she might sail in… her eyes sparkled joyfully when the dogs came bounding up to welcome her (W.H., P.45). Catherine has changed from a “savage”, mischievous girl who used to play and spends all her time with Heathcliff, into an adequate young lady with a manner of gentlewoman. She becomes fond of the life style of Linton family and has an attraction to Edger. This transformation is…

I would have never thought that I was going to take the highway that day and I learned some valuable pointers alongside. I have always been fascinated by highways, as they would cause me to become languid and at peace. I would enjoy watching the extensive, country roads outside of the backseat window like a little girl. I expect a deer, for some reason, to hop out from the tremendous, towering trees that were greener than the grass it occupied. In addition, I enjoyed watching all of the other…

I was zooming through the air in a plane at rapid speeds, yet I was at a point in my life where everything was at a standstill. Nothing significant was happening. I was an aspiring soccer player, but at the moment I had no team to play on. I was growing more anxious day by day, and I began to wonder what the future had in store for me after my vacation. It wouldn't take long for me to find out. I would have never thought that my vacation to Thailand in June of 2017 would change my life. It…

Who is your hero? So what is a hero? A question most people have felt in their life. A hero is a person who puts others before themselves, expecting nothing in return out the kindness of their hearts. Most people think heroes are only in fairytales or when something drastic happens. Emergency services including police, firemen, and paramedics should be considered the biggest heroes to us all. In the British fictional story Beowulf, written by an anonymous Anglo-Saxon poet but translated by…

“What I Did This Summer?” This summer I participated in many exciting events. I helped my dance studio with a dance camp and I spent a few days with my friends. The most exciting thing I did this summer was that my family and I went on a trip to Italy. I have gone to Italy only once before, and I was in fourth grade and it was my second time going to Europe. I love all the different cultures and the people I meet. In Italy everyone is kind and they try to speak English, even though they…

Though I am the type of person that strongly believes everything happens for a reason, I still at times wish that what happened, happened in an alternative way. I believe the one thing that I would change would be three years ago, on Easter Break. I would have to say, it was by far one of the most life changing events that has happened to me, yet. I do not know if it will affect me forever, but I as of now it has made a few days to day chores a hassle. I do not remember much from the day that…

During the beautiful Fall mornings, Squirrel often finds himself playing with all the other animals. This was not a rare occurrence for Squirrel, he often found himself playing. One Day, Squirrel went to the pond to play with Turtle and Frog. While the three friends were playing, Squirrel jumped in the pond, without knowing how to swim. Turtle and Frog did not realize what had happened because they were too busy playing. While in the pond, Squirrel thought he would drown, but that was not the…

Rain. Gloomy, cold, gray, dark. Snow. Glistening, white, light, fluffy. Reading each of these adjectives that describe both of the weathers make us feel either depressed or joyful. Who knew just reading a couple of adjectives could change how we feel? Well literature sure did! The use of weather in literature is found to either set the tone of a book, describe a character, or foreshadow an event that could occur. One author in particular who took enormous advantage of weather was Ernest…
