School, I get a feeling that I do not feel at any other school. I was able to attend this school the first two years after it was built. A great number of memories have been made here by the kids heading to school. The children are kind and greet you every day. During the summer, a lot of additions were being made to this somewhat new school by Miron Construction. They were adding a new gym and many new classrooms because the school was expanding quickly. It previously stood in a field…
As I jog around the field, following my teammate in front of me like a baby duck follows its mother, I prepare my mindset for the game. As a forward, I must be on top of my game so I can whiz around the defenders and launch the ball into the back of the net with a swoosh. Ever since I can remember, forward has always been my position, and I have always had an attacking mindset. Little did I know, the game today would completely change my mindset for the rest of my soccer career. I start the…
How strong are you? One of my favorite quotes is “You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have” is a quote that might connect to some more than others In all, this quote represents struggle and the resilience someone has to possess to get through whatever they’re going through.

grabbedmy pink floral helmet and strapped it on my head. My dad came running out of the garage saying “I found the screw driver!” My heart sank to the floor, it was hard to swallow. My dad squatted down and started using the screwdriver and asked “Can you grab onto the handlebars and hold it up please? Once I take these off it won’t be able to stand up by itself.” I put my hand on the handlebars and my hands instantly turned sweaty. My grip on the bars was so tight that once I took my hands…
through various locations that reference scenes in the film, with Hanratty always one step behind but getting closer and closer to Frank, until they both share the screen at the end of the titles. The credits fade to black just as Hanratty is about a catch up with Frank, leaving the ending open and emulating the suspense that features throughout the movie. A subtle touch of humour in the title credits, which work to establish the light-hearted tone of the film, is introduced when the credits…
Even though i've overcome my illness I still have appointments and checkups frequently, which is difficult to work around school. Also, teachers are quite lenient with me, but there is only so much they can do so if I miss a substantial amount of school they can't always help me catch up. It’s a burden on my education. I can't put all the blame on my disses I had a significant part to do with it. Proactionation had a big impact on my grades. When I had fallen extremely behind…

When in your stance you want to be comfortable. You want to have a slight bend in your knees and at the waist. You want to have…

“Thousands of little kids, and nobody around- nobody big, I mean- except me. And I’m standing on the edge of some crazy cliff. What I have to do, I have to catch everybody if they start to go over the cliff- I mean if they’re running and they don’t look where they are going…. That’s all I’d do all day. I’d just be the catcher in the rye and all” (191). When Holden…
77: “If you are thinking that you must be misunderstanding all of this, because it is just too spooky… then I am sorry to tell you that you are not” (Storr 77). He ended the chapter speaking completely to the reader and ultimately insinuated that misunderstanding or even rejecting theoretical neuroscience is okay because “you are, after all, only human” (Storr 91).…
