I lay on my bed shoving pillows against my ears trying to get it to stop, but the voice isn’t something I can shut out because I know that it’s in my head. I hear her voice constantly telling me, “Come on, get up, get dressed, do something today,” but she does not understand how I feel. She is the one that left me. I did not leave her. Everyone always says that if you love something, set it free and if it comes back, it’s yours, but what…

out of the back seat just in time as my stomach contents then popped out of me. My Mom and step dad came up with this brilliant idea, and I use the word brilliant sarcastically, to take the family on a vacation to West Edmonton Mall. A trip that ranged over 1,700 km and took 17 and a half hours to drive. Going on the trip were my brother Randy, my four step brothers, my parents, and of course myself.

Paper #1 Narrative – Final: Moving Through My Eyes At the age of 10 my world changed drastically as I moved 1,566 miles from Maddison Heights, Michigan to McIntosh, New Mexico, but what did I know about change?

Just like he always does. The wind broke into the car as I rolled down…

did my ride along with the Boone Police Department. For my ride along I rode with Petey Hausley and his K-9 Simba. Before doing the ride along I had a lot of thoughts running through my mind.
