The Day I Will Never Forget Essay

Manisha where do I began? I suppose I’m sorry is where to start. I am so sorry. Since, I don’t have your number I do not know how to contact you because you seem not to speak to me in person. I said a lot of things last year, I made a lot of mistakes and in the end, it was down to me being weak, alone, scared and hopeless... I blame myself for every moment that caused you pain. For this, I'm truly sorry... I know I've said that word a thousand times but out of everyone in this life that I've…

Luella Davis was a woman of a different kind. Unlike other women her age, Luella was not a grandparent (to her knowledge) enjoyed swimming, designed clothes in her free time and never took no for an answer (on many subjects). She was a fireball full of ambition-Or at least, that's how some may describe her. Unfortunately, no one ever mentioned how…unpredictable Luella Davis could be. The best example would be when Luella showed up in front of Mai and Naru's doorstep in Japan without warning.…

On September 9th, 2016 I was a passenger in rear-end car accident. At the young age of seventeen, I was ignorant, rebellious and negligent. At this time, I honestly believed that I knew it all and was always in the right; I would ignore anyone trying to guide me towards the right path or give me advice. As in the short story “Rain of Fire” by Evan Thomas, I would have never expected that a regular day could end up in such catastrophe. I learned not to trust those whom I have not gotten to know…

Niemoller states, “First/Then they came for the . . . And I did not speak out because I was not a. . .”. This poem could be recommended to anyone who wants to know more about the Holocaust but does not like to read a lot. It is short, but holds a lot of emotion. Another poem that stood out is "The Song of the Murdered…

is the quote my mother told me the day I lifted the dominican republic to come to america. Problems that I had in the Dominican Republic never back and a new future here i’ll have.

I grew up with my mother and father for a few years till my father moved to the united states for a job opportunity when I was eight. My father always called…

me considering I barley remember what happened yesterday. Although my memory may just be as bad as Mr. Pringles who asks me where I 'm going at least three times within the same five minutes it 's still pretty up there. What I can say is I will remember this. All of the times I have been called poofy, serena williams or even troy polamaloo because apparently my hair morphs my face. All of the times Iv 'e fallen up the main stairs, yes I said up. The time when we had the blackout and I was…

first arrived at the first camp and took away things that made up who they were such as giving them all the same haircuts, clothes, and tattooing a number on them. “I became A-7713. From then on, I had no other name.” (pg. 42). Eliezar lost his humanity becoming a number instead of his name. This devastated him as he was having a good day by sleeping in and getting a good lunch.

I am defined by my service in my community and the relationships I have developed over the years. Even as a developing youth, I experienced diversity and activism. I have traveled thousands of miles to desolate Caribbean islands with natives living in shacks eager to tell spin tales of urban myths for you, and I have traveled locally…

After all of these tests and doctor visits, I was diagnosed with stage one ovarian cancer. A granulosa cell tumor was found on my right ovary. It was pretty rare considering less than five out of one hundred ovarian cancer patients have a tumor like that. It was astonishing that a sixteen year old, with no previous ovarian cancer occurrences in her family, was diagnosed with the cancer. The average age for an ovarian cancer occurrence is sixty three years old. My doctors concluded that the best…
