Barney & Friends

In April of 2012, on a spring break day, my sister and I had no clue that this normal-seeming day would turn into a day full of surprise. Maya, my sister, was four years old with blonde hair and eyes as light blue as a clear sky. Many people said her hair was as soft as silk. I, on the other hand, was seven years old with dark brown hair and chocolate eyes. The morning was a typical spring morning near the beach in Santa Cruz, foggy and cold. My mom, dad, sister and I had just approached our…

study on the book Love? Maybe. I didn’t use any background information for my understanding of the story because my book is not a part of a series or made into a movie. As the story begins, the main character, named Piper Paisley, is talking to her friends Jillian and Claire in the candy shop she works in, called Jan The Candy Man, and she is stocking up the truffle pyramids while Jillian talks to her about Valentine's day, which happens to be Piper’s birthday. Jillian is trying to convince…

Jackaboy and his best friend named Sam Septic. The two of them were running through a farm looking for potatoes one day, when they came across a hole in the middle of the fields on their way to their homes. Sam Septic was running too fast and tried to keep his balance from falling but fails. Jackaboy calls the farmers for help but it seemed that they weren't close enough to the farm. Sam Septic was too far down to be seen by Jackaboy. Jackaboy was afraid that his best friend might be dead as…

this point? What brought me to the point where I killed my best friend, my only friend. Nate my best and only friend who has ever cared for me and the only person I have ever cared for. I think back to the moment I first met Nate. At the time we were 7 years old. We had quickly become best of friends over only a few months and even our parents thought we would marry within coming years. The year was 1844, we had been best friends for 2 years now. That was the year that everything changed for…

Dilip Chitre creates a stark impression of the isolation of old age in his poem ‘Father Returning Home’ by showing his fathers’ estrangement from society and his own family. Chitre conveys this isolation by using literary devices such as similes and repetition, and addressing themes such as modernity vs tradition. The poem begins when a father is waiting outside for a train which will take him home. We know this as it says ‘My father travels on the late evening train’. Already by labelling the…

what he thought of me it was to the point and my way or the highway. He did not listen or care what other people thought of me. The stereotypes I had were very emotional presence and I also very over communicative about everything. I thought all my friends had to know and I expected them to also give this male the silent treatment. Which some did and the other did not give him the silent…

They also learned from each other. "You know you 're best friends when they buy you food for no reason." Sean said walking…

basketball by speeding up my reflexes using drills my basketball coach taught me for basketball season. I could shave ten seconds off my 5K time for cross country. Then, I will be able to make varsity. Branching out with my friend group and possibly make a few -two or three- friends in each class is something else I can try. Also, challenging myself to stay in a positive mindset this week and next week as I continue through my first two weeks of high school is another possibility. By continuing…
