7:30 PM. I have never been one to go to plays very often so my opinion over the performance might not be as accurate as others. Growing up I’ve always been into math and physics, the fact that both subjects are supported by logical fact is why I was attracted to them as subjects I would prefer to study. However, this play left an impression on me that completely changed my entire viewpoint of what the theatre is. Throughout the play my emotions ranged from eager, to confused, to nervous, and…
break was just around the corner, my friends and I had not even a clue on what we wanted to do except one thing, we wanted to make this spring break the most memorable as we can. We did not want to just sit around or netflix and chill, we wanted to go out and explore. One day as I was sitting in class, my phone started blowing up, “buzz buzz buzz” it would go every second, I started getting butterflies in my stomach when I saw “SOUTH CAROLINA!” written on my screen. My friend had thought of a…

there. This is where I come in, my most memorable life experiences come from moments when I can serve others, not from serving myself.

I do not believe I would be where I am today if it was not for the opportunities presented to me in programs sponsored by 4-H. My first experiences started when…
always say. I had just entered the halls of Mulvane High School as a freshman. Everything looked and smelt brand new to me. I could feel the excitement and nervousness pulsing throughout my body. I had my good friends by my side and it was the start of a new and anticipated journey for the next four years of my life. My second hour class happened to be Spanish which seemed intriguing but challenging. As I sat down I heard a loud voice echo through the hallway. As I turned to look Rayven, a new…
truly describes my Uncle John who has had the most profound influence in my life. We shared a number of interests together that made our relationship grow and strengthen to a lifelong friendship. He was an influence on me with things such as simple fun, similar interests, and his work and career. John had special qualities that would make me feel good about who I am as an individual, which I will never forget. Whenever Uncle John had a spare moment, he would grab and tickle me, my sisters, and…
specifically chose this performance to do my report on because I wanted to feel what actual Native American music would be like in concert as opposed to what we naturally think of when it comes to Native American music. For me, that would include heavy drumming and dancing, which are usually even-pulsed with a variety of vocables. Not to my disappointment, the music was unique in its own way and had spoke directly to me. The performance started off with the song titled “My House is the Red…
achieve this, everything else in life will just follow. I would be lying if I said that scared little girl inside my heart didn’t still believe this to be true to some extent, but with age came wisdom but we’ll get to this a little later. Seeing all the “pretty” people on tv, movies, ads, even in real life can be intimidating, convincing us all for the most part that this is just how life is. I hate to admit, but this way of thinking was apparent in my own family. My own mother was so unhappy…

This statement shows that Knowles had the power to stand strong by…
Bad decisions, makes the best stories. Truitt Odom One way to get the most out of life is to look upon it as a adventure. ~ William Feather.
