Ski Trip to Vermont My friends and I consider ourselves to be very spontaneous and adventurous. It was one cold week in February of 2016, when a group of about 6 of my friends (including me) all decided that we wanted to go to Vermont for the weekend to ski and snow tube. Considering this would be my first trip with no parental guidance at all, I was apprehensive about asking my mom. On the way to drop me off after school one day, my best friend Tony told me to tell her that he was going too…

When I woke up I heard the sound of wheels running over linoleum flooring. I opened my eyes and saw a cart being pushed by a woman wearing minnie mouse scrubs. Why is she wearing that? I thought. I could feel the effects of the anesthetic lingering in my body. That was when I remembered I had just come out of surgery to correct my bladder. The nurse looked at me with a smile on her face, “How are you feeling sweetie? I have a toy for you to choose.” I looked towards the cart and saw the…

During the early Roman Empire period in 330 A.D. Constantine the Great became the first emperor of the Roman Empire. He relocated Rome's capital to the far east of Byzantine.

cut down into a stump. Some people may wonder, why is the tree so important? It’s just a tree right? No,it’s not just a tree. It was a tree which holds a lot of memories of my friends and I. When I was little, my brother and I always went out there and played games. Soon, when I went to school and came back, I found out some of my friends lived nearby. After school was done, we would stay outside to do homework. If it was too windy, too cold, or too hot, my friends would come inside my house…

It was a long night that into the next day. I started drinking when I was 14 and it steadily escalated into something out of control. In school I never really fit and was usually teased for different reasons. This eventually led to me becoming depressed. I don’t remember why I decided to try alcohol just that in the moments when I would drink I felt better about life. This steadily became more as getting a hold of alcohol became easier the older I was. On August 9th, 2012 that came to a…

Constantine the Great (I) was an Emperor of the Roman Empire from 306-324 A.D. and The Emperor of the Roman Empire from 324 until his death in 337. One of the few Roman Emperors to be considered great, Constantine reigned during a period of great upheaval in the Empire, but still managed to enact reforms and stabilize the state, thus on these bases, he was an exemplary ruler. Constantine came to power first as the Caesar of the Western Empire in 305 A.D. when his father Constantius was raised to…

As I woke up this morning feeling a bit abashed, but also very satisfied. 2 days ago I was on the brink of getting killed by Herod Sayle, but everything reciprocated suddenly when Yassen Gregorovich shot Sayle right in front of me, then told me that he wasn’t open to kill children; and that he had no enlightenment to kill me. MI6 told me that if he saw me poking around, he would shoot me right on the spot without procrastination, I guess Mr.Blunt and his affiliates were wrong about Yassen…

As I arrived to class on Wednesday 25, 2017 my professor Peter Saint John decided that we needed a bigger room due to the fact that we have a lot of students in such as a small classroom. Therefore, with his suggested and other students in the classroom, we decide to go upstairs to a bigger room on the 3rd floor of Magnuson center. As we were going upstairs there was a meeting going on in the building and my professor decided to check it out and had a conversation with the people involved. The…
