My Goals This semester is a new beginning for me. I 'm excited to continue this year working hard for good grades and experiencing new opportunities that make me a better person. My grades in school are my highest priority. I’m always worried about my grades going down or not being prepared for an exam. However, I will not back down this semester. I plan to do the best I can to learn a good impression for the rest of the college years. This year is the start of many more and I don’t want bad…

I came home to unpack the night before the first day of 8th grade started. I had just spent a week with my dad before summer vacation came to an end. My mom called me downstairs to have a discussion with her and Ron, my step dad. I assumed it had something to do with Ron’s kids, Vanessa and Trey, moving in with us. But to my great surprise, they told me that they were getting a divorce and Ron would be moving out that night. Those next couple weeks were kind of a blur. My mom was calling our…

It feels like I’ve been in this institution for five years now, it really has, even though it was really a couple months. The place is filled with phony’s and I wanted to get the hell out of this goddam place. Anyway, I was reading this book old D.B. gave me when he visited me last Saturday. It was pretty good. It was called I, Robot by Isaac Asimov. I would tell you what’s it about but I didn’t feel like it. I didn’t feel like anything in here. They had a lot of people in here trying to help…

I awoke to the sound of the baby monitor crackling with a voice comforting my first born child. As I adjusted to a new position, my arm brushed against my wife, lying next to me. I lurched out of my bed, threw open the door and ran down the hall. I swung the door open and almost cried out of fear, shock, and utter disgust. The figure could almost be considered human under the right conditions. It had a head, a torso, two legs with feet and two arms with hands. Though, the body was impossibly…

Memorable event: Misunderstanding One day in the sunny afternoon with the sun shining as if not wanted to set. I sat in City Park waiting my boyfriend. I looked around there no one people playing or just sitting in the park just only me alone. The sun shone brightly enough make the forehead and the back of my wet. I am curious why my boyfriend so long. I saw man carrying many books and sat near me in the same chair, he wearing glasses with tired face. I want ask or just talking anything…

What everyone defines as justice is very different. What one person may see as justice another may not see it as justice. We as people make these choices everyday without knowing that we had made them. A prime example of what one person sees as justice and others do not is from Antigone. After Antigone’s brothers fought and Kreon kills Polyneices, Kreon says that his brother Polyneices is not to be buried, since Polyneices wanted the crown for himself. Kreon chose to do this to his brother to…

Beyond my Euphoric Buzz “Someone go find Luke. His girlfriend is puking.” (Mi Voz, Mi Vida, 68). This was very familiar to me and really hit home to me when I read this first line for the very first time. From a super star student by day to a party girl at night, this is what Sarah was. This is what I was also growing up. Reading this book was an eye opener and in a way, amazing. Beyond the Euphoric Buzz by Sarah Fox was the very first story I read in this book. I did not know what to expect…

Skills: Some skills that I possess are my abilities to multitask, work with technology, be cooperative, listen carefully, and follow instructions. I believe I am able to do my best work both alone and in a group, because I can be cooperative and work well with others, but also be independent. I enjoy having instructions to work with, or someone to tell me what I have to get done. Working with technology is another one of my skills that is important to have in this time, when everything is…

In a forest called “The Jacobian Forest” that was located in Washington, DC there lived a 15 year old boy. That boy's name was Arode Zipicur. He was a blonde haired, very tan young kid. With only one pair of clothes, a red t-shirt and blue jeans. He was stuck in the forest. This forest was not all ordinary though. In this Forest there were 300 pound ants and 200 pounds spiders.The forest can also fight back. Then there are regular animals like tigers and wolves. Every day you have to fight for…
