“Tell me about them.” I asked, wanting to pry, but not wanting to push her. “So, how does a New York girl end up in Iowa?” I asked her nonchalantly. At first, Anna looked as if she were going to shut me down and stonewall about her past as she thought about what to say, but then she eased into it by trying to make light of her situation. “My story is just like everyone else’s, I guess,” she said jokingly. “A girl grows up in a loving home, but has big-city dreams, so she moves to Iowa…

Wesley and I chose the poem “Mending Wall” by Robert Frost. This poem is about two neighbors that are divided by a stone wall and in thes scene, they are meeting to repair the wall. One neighbor doesn't understand the need for the wall since there are no animals to fence in and their trees are different. The presentation to our classmates went very well and we were very calm. We were to memorize our intro and try to as little as possible, not look at the poem. The delivery was very well but…

Elias, First of all, I would like to tell you how proud and excited I am for you! I have been able to watch you grow from a quiet young boy into a respectable young man, and more importantly a little brother. It has been such a joy to get to know and love you. You are funny, kind, and you have such a great heart. I have always enjoyed watching the way you treat your mom, sisters, and Grammy. You honor them, and treat them in the way that women are supposed to be treated. Don’t lose that! That…

Charles Kelley of the hit country group Lady Antebellum had planned his own solo tour. All of the dates were set up and fans were read to go out and see him. Now he has canceled all of his tour dates, but it was done very quietly and Charles isn't even sharing what is going on with his fans. Nashville Gab shared about what is going on now with Charles Kelley's first solo tour. This tour isn't happening at all. If you go to Charles website, all of the dates are totally gone besides one for a…

Alec’s eyes widened giving him a smile and shaking his hand. I felt relieved when I saw his gorgeous smile we were in a good track. “You’re the one who helped my mummy when she was in the hospital.” Alec said, recognizing him from when Harry had helped me get medical attention after Stephanie assaulted me. “Yes, that was me.” Harry chuckled. “What do you say if we go get some ice cream?” He asked. “Yes.” Alec said. He had been quiet and introverted that it was hard to believe that he was indeed…

“I’ll do whatever you say from now on, please.” Robbie knew the teenage girl has a crush on him. He softened his stance. “You dove into the ocean without telling me, Yasmin. We were twenty miles out. Ever seen a teenage girl bitten in half by a Great White?” Yasmin joked, “Yes, in that movie that comes on at one in the morning, Jaws.” Everybody laughed. Robbie was not amused, “Yeah, the Stephen Spielberg movie Jaws… Remember the scene when she was eaten, that could have been you.” Yasmin hugs…

The traits of these members would…

Laying there, entangled in his embrace, I gazed up at him as he was sleeping. He looked so peaceful. A part of me never wanted to leave, but a part of me knew that I had to. “Erik,” I whispered, hoping that he wouldn’t stir, but his eyes fluttered, and he smiled when he saw me. “You’re still here,” he whispered back, “This was the first time I hadn’t dreamt of you.” “That’s a good thing?” Erik pulled me closer, “I couldn’t touch you in my dreams.” He kissed me, and I felt light headed. But I…

In Josh Sundquist’s book Just Don't Fall he covers many aspects of the average human and the way we go about things. One aspect that I like is he really strives to show the drive, and the urge to never give up no matter what circumstances you are presented with. After reading this book I really decided to rethink many aspects of my own life and questioned how determined am I to actually do stuff. One way I plan to apply this to my own life is by putting all my effort into something if i'm…
