Without our expectation,my mum and aunty went to the kitchen and screamed at the top of their voices when they saw the messy kitchen.They also got shocked looking at our faces full of flour but at the same time they could not control their laughters.Without hesitation,my dad and uncle ran to the kitchen as they thought something bad had happened in the kitchen.Imagine they too laughed at us.Ana and I looked each other and we too laughed.Fortunately,my parents bought some breakfast for us as…
least once in my life. However, my family doesn’t have the opportunity to take me there. Before coming to America, my family, in Vietnam, did not have a condition (?) to take me to the places that related to Disney World. The place I visited before were just a small water park or entertainment rollers. Moreover, my parents were working really hard so I can go to school like other children. I might not had a great childhood life like others, but I had parents who love me and they are my biggest…
graduates. First of all I would like to thank the teachers, parent volunteers, and any other person that was not mentioned that has had an impact in our years at St. Albert. Some of you may not have thought of it this way, but elementary school is where most of your year of education will come from. This year would not have been the same without them. Has been filled with so many new experiences and amazing memories, but it seems like it has also gone by so quickly. I feel as if just yesterday,…
I am just a simple kid. I live with my mom and my brother. I go to school, I play soccer and I like sports a lot. I often look around and see people in transition very busy at human "doing" rather than human "being." Everyone seems to be on their way to becoming something, looking forward to some far off goal. The most comfortable place I have ever been is precisely where I am at this very moment in time and that is in the present moment. This attitude is not to be mistaken for a lack of…
how I want to live my life. I started my trip September 10th to go to my cousin Brandon’s wedding. The wedding was in Wisconsin and it was a very chilly couple of days, especially the day before and day of the wedding. Only a select few members of the family weren’t attending. During this trip, I realized how important family and God is to our lives. On September 10th, I arrived in Wisconsin at about 11 a.m. My mom and I got a rental car and drove to the hotel and waited for my grandma to…
The Broad My museum trip can be summed up with the word serendipitous. When I arrived at the Broad Museum in Downtown Los Angeles, I saw the line to enter the museum go down two blocks. I walked into the lobby, intending to ask a museum attendant on the estimated wait time in line. After hearing the line was going to be a three hour wait, we continued our conversation and started bonding over Yayoi Kusama’s work, especially her Infinity Mirrored Room. Unexpectedly, the museum attendant decided…

I was able to say that I had ascended a mountain that not many had climbed. This trip was the most memorable because I was able to experience this with my dad, who was at my side. The trek also gave me the confidence that once I set my mind on a goal, I can do anything. At the beginning of the climb, I was not sure if I could climb Mt. Phillip. But after reaching the top and seeing the entire Philmont Ranch…
according to Alexis Petridis of The Guardian. This review, along with other positive acclimations of the album, seemed to be driven by the well produced sonic direction Kanye took as a main stream artist. This is considering that 3 years prior, he released My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy which is not only his highest acclaimed album, but is one of the highest acclaimed albums of all time…but also…
It was a Thursday, I walked in the band room being greeted by all my band members that were all excited, I felt the opposite. I was full of anxiety, very spaced out to the world; myself being a senior, being my last year of marching band meant I was high candidate on being chosen to be a band leader. My past drum major look at me and told me “relax, breathe, you will be fine and good luck”. As my ex-drum major step on the podium, she explain how it was one of the best experiences of her life…
