The cheers mute, yet my frantic beating heart pulsates, burgeoning in volume, penetrating my ear drums. Filled with adrenaline and drenched in sweat, I feel the brisk wind linger. I grit my teeth, ready to take action. Three one thousand, four one thousand. The ball snaps and number 50 is my target. I jump towards him, but he dives down. As he wraps around my leg, my mind wraps around my…

There are multiple great fast food chains around the world. But one of my favorite places has to be Chick-fil-a. Chick-fil-a is a fast food chain that sells food only with chicken. They are mostly known for their cow mascot that has the famous catchphrase “Eat more chicken.” The main reason I like their restaurant is because their restaurant tends to have more of a placid atmosphere than the other fast food chains. They also make their employees be kind and tend to the customers' needs. But I…

As we began to ascend the steep gravel road, the truck began to tremble as my uncle struggled to keep the clutch from slipping. When we finally reached the top, the smell of burnt clutch filled my lungs. I opened the window to get a fresh breath, but the burst of piercing December air made me shut the window as fast as my stiffened body would allow. To…

I see the swift movement of water in front of me. I smell the trees beside me. I feel sand between my toes and rocks scraping my feet at the bottom of the cold water. This is my home. When I look out across the clear water I recall many memories from growing up. Going down to the Creekbank, the first thing that can be spotted is a large tree with writing on it. If one will look close at this tree they will spot names listed up and down. These are the names etched into the bark by the Grimes…

This is the time I realized Chevy is the best truck out there. In many ways this is true. For instance, the look, the power, and the comfort. I like Chevrolet trucks for many reasons but I really enjoy the design of the truck. Which design aspects you may ask? Well, I like the ride height of the truck, it has a nice ground clearance where it looks good but also is still effective. Another is the comfort of the vehicle. When you sit in a Chevy truck it’s like you’re at home in your lazy-boy,…

The drive to my Grandmother’s house is familiar, but seemingly endless. Entering her house seems like my own, but everything is different. The walls, the furniture, the smells. I immediately detect the picture of my Grandfather smiling in his uniform on the mantle. I’ve seen that picture so many times I’ve remembered the colors of his medal ribbons, the slight asymmetry of his garrison cap. I notice the outdated floral wallpaper that embraces the wall, the flowers and the wall, seemingly…

When life becomes too much or I just want to have fun and relax my number one place to go is the ball fields. The field is where I go, because it is where my heart belongs. The ball field’s best feature is its green inner diamond shape, with grainy, brown dirt surrounding it, and the always freshly cut, stripped green grass making up the outfield. You’ll be able to smell the fresh cut grass and the cool breeze constantly flowing by to keep you calm and relaxed while you’re playing. When you…

I only lived in Beaufort for a couple of years when I was a young child, but when someone asks me where I am from, I always say Beaufort, South Carolina. Living at the Old Point in Beaufort is the equivalent to being an actress playing a role in a horror film. No, there is not a murderer that chases innocent people around trying to kill them, but the whole entire environment is creepy enough to make outsiders check behind themselves after every few steps they take. As I sit alone on the third…
