2006 singles

1999 was the year that changed my life trajectory. The year was filled with dire warnings for Y2k but to me, it was the year that I found the name of my passion. I have questioned, changed, given up on this passion several times during the last 18 years but I am thankful that I have been pulled back on course no matter my own and life’s’ shenanigans. 1999 I started what would be called my freshman college year in Trinidad and Tobago. Having finished my high school with somewhat unremarkable…

I have been through a lot in my life before I started college. The number one thing that has impacted my life would be the tornado’s that hit Alabama on April 27, 2011 because, that was when my life turned upside down and I lost everything I owned. When I lost everything that I had worked hard for up until that day is what has made me realize that if I want to be able to have certain things again I will have to work just has hard. I am initially motivated to start because of my son, my dreams,…

While reading Adam’s Peace by Henri Nouwen I had seen that he wrote about a caring person who helped the disable individuals. He took the time to explain in detail who Adam was and what he does to help him with his daily routine and how he felt about it. In this essay I will be addressing how to interact with someone who is disable and able to understand their needs. We are all different, but one thing remains we want peace and love. While working in a nursing home there are many people who…

I think it’s weird how water looks almost black under frozen lakes. When it’s warm the water seems so friendly and inviting, but during the winter it’s almost ominous. “I just don’t feel the same way about you anymore, Aleksei” that’s definitely the worst thing anyone has ever said to me. It feels like it didn’t happen, but at the same time it feels like it’s the only thing that’s happened all week. Everything else is just jaded by those words. This was my first day of my junior year in college,…

Hey, come here. Just a little bit closer so that others won’t hear. It’s embarrassing, but I need to tell you a story. It’s the tale of the girl who fell in love with her best friend. It’s cliche, but it was love at first sight. We met at the first meeting of gaming club. The moment I walked in, it felt like we were the only ones in the room. I slyly sat across from the boy and watched the others play on their devices. “Hi, I’m Carlin,” he said suddenly. “I’m Anna.” As we talked, I started to…

Waking up with a killer headache and blurry vision, Blanche knew something was wrong. She waited for her eyes to adjust to the harsh lighting before fully opening them and taking in her surroundings. There was blood everywhere! At the foot of the old wooden chair she sat in was a puddle of what Blanche could only assume to be her own blood. Seeing this she began to panic. She desperately tried pulling at the ropes around her hands, but had no luck. By now Blanche was sure it was her blood…

At the beginning of this year, I decided to dedicate my life to Christ. After coming back home from a winter retreat, I concluded that I need to talk to pastor to get baptized, and I did on April 23, 2017. Shortly thereafter, I went on a mission trip to Washington, D.C., where I really got to see God’s works at hand. My mission group and I work woke up one morning to a beautiful sunrise, and magnificent weather. Despite the fact we had to get up at five in the morning, I was eager to see what…

I stroll down the hallway and hear the sounds of muffled music booming from the speakers. The music seems to intensify becoming louder and louder, the closer I walk towards the doors. I open the wooden double doors and walk into the space. I see white walls that hold vertical paneled mirrors, side by side, enclosed with black steel bars horizontally sitting three feet off the ground. As I looked down at the floor, it is covered with gray marley flooring scratched and worn, from years of wear and…
