months ago at lunch. My friend Medina & I were talking about he upcoming musical at pinewood, "The Little Mermaid." Medina told me that audition dates & told me to go with her on day two. I wasn't available on any of the days of the auditions. This made me very agitated. I was looking forward to the musical all year. I asked the coordinator of there was any other alternatives. She said yes, stage crew. I took the idea of stage crew into consideration. I figured, it is better than not…

Event that Influenced my Decision to Become a Nurse I and my sister were boarding students of a high school in Nigeria. In February 2009, when we were still in high school, my sister had a severe convulsion episode as a result of previous infections with malaria parasites that were untreated. The convulsion let her to an unconscious state for four days. During this period, I was scared and confused because everything seemed to happen so suddenly. I had to leave school for the mean time to care…

Every day for the last 6 months has been exactly the same, I start each day by walking across the road to the same old cafe. By now, I know all the cracks in the pavement and I could easily make it through my day with my eyes shut. I walk straight past the counter without having to order, then sit in my usual seat by the window alone and take out my laptop. The only thing I have ever known to change is whether I am gazing at the sun, the rain or even occasionally snow through the cafe’s dusty…

important to do well in school, until one day when my parents thought of the idea to start rewarding me in exchange for good grades. I caught on quickly to the idea of making exceptional grades for the things that I desire. A prime example is my 870 Remington, 12-gauge shotgun that I received for earning an “A” on my Social Studies midterm. This was no ordinary shotgun. These specific shotguns were handcrafted and customized to fit young boys like myself at the time. I was in eighth grade when…

is being portrayed in the song is depression and having suicidal thoughts, “I know I'm a mess and I wanna be someone, someone that I like better” they want to be different than who they are right now, someone without all of their imperfections and deadly thoughts holding them back from doing anything and never going to get better because of them. The person is wanting to know if anyone would care if they were gone “If I wasn't here tomorrow Would anybody care” it seems if they are looking for…

“For the survivor who chooses to testify, it is clear: his duty is to bear witness for the dead and for the living. He has no right to deprive future generations of a past that belongs to our collective memory. To forget would be not only dangerous but offensive; to forget the dead would be akin to killing them a second time” (Wiesel 3). The book "Night" is a memoir written by Holocaust survivor, Elie Wiesel. Elie shares the gruesome experiences that Jews experienced during the early 1900s. Elie…

The poem ‘A Song of Living’ reminds me of granny Ana. The way Amelia Burr explains how a life well live diffuses the fear or “sorrow” of death gives peace to my soul. I discovered this poem exactly a year ago when my grandma passed away. The decadent smell of pancakes will wake us up on Sunday mornings and nobody can to this day make pancakes the way granny Ana did; crispy on the outside and buttery on the inside. It was akin to a criminal offense to leave the house without eating granny Ana’s…

I went to school on December 14th, 2012 just like I had done any other day. I was a sophomore in high school. My favorite class that year was Drawing & Painting, not because I was good or anything, but because it was an easy A class where I can just try to be creative to the best of my abilities. Since it was towards the end of the semester, I was almost done with my project. I remember we were painting on canvases using acrylic paints. I was painting a tree, with a wooden chair attached to it.…

When my family decided to…
