My heart thumps like a bass drum in my ears as I run. I can barely breathe but I don’t stop. I reach my car, crank the engine and put my foot to the floor. Driving through the streets of Brisbane to the highway, I start to think over Alice’s and my relationship. “You should come over this weekend. We can work on our project.” I messaged her late at night. “Okay, I’ll ask my parents.” Alice answers quickly before confirming she can. On Saturday morning, she arrives at my house. We work on our…

It gives anyone the power to work harder, strive further, and have meaning in whatever they do, and having purpose is the sole meaning behind living life, whether it’s living for someone, something, or even yourself. One of the main purposes of my life is to live for the people who have shaped me into the person that I am today.…

Then at the end they read a passage and end the meeting with a prayer.…

it off, because it meant you had something to hide, and then you would be questioned. It keeps a record of everywhere you go and sends it to the government. It is very seldom used, and when it is used, its for a crisis or very important situations. I dig a hole with my hands to put my detector in. Once I have it off and in the hole I burry it. I can’t help but think maybe one day I’ll be able to burry these memories. I start walking around. I have no clue what to do know. I have the cure and…

As a child it was instilled in me by my parents that I would always have my education no matter what it took. It has been true to this day. I have been forever grateful for the opportunities that I have had as a child to young adult because of them. Although they have helped me tremendously, it would be nothing to them if I hadn’t put in the hard work and dedication that it takes in order to want to learn, excel and grow. I believe that I have done my job to show them why it is even worth it in…

Winter break last year was an experience for me that I will never forget. It is when I found who I was and who my real friends and family were. I went into winter break that year as one person and came out a totally different person. Many people do not know why I changed so dramatically, they questioned a lot. I tried to explain but no one understood. It was a blistering cold winter morning when my mom called me and explained to me that my cousin Leila was going to come over to my house…

Searching for a job could be considered as a pretty easy or extremely difficult task to do. Well it’s way more hard when you’re sixteen, still in high school, and have no other job experience. That was me, and let 's just say that it was a long and hard thing to do. On the contrary I do have a job now, and through this experience I’ve learned multiple things that’ll help me with my life out in the real world. Two years prior, to me having a job today, is when I started thinking about…
