It was a Thursday night, on my first week of kindergarten. I hadn’t made many friends because I was so use to playing with my sister, that I wasn’t sure if I knew how to make friends. I wasn’t shy when I was around my immediate family, but if you would put me in a room with people that I didn’t know. Well, I wouldn’t say a word. I would be so quiet that I would just sit there and you could forget that I was in the room. I was up running through all my stuff that I would have to be doing for my…

Upon reflecting on my high school graduation, there were countless obstacles deterring me from graduating all four years. Real life hit me at an exceptionally early age, causing me to spiral out of control. Due to my mother’s recurring absences, I was compelled to raise my three younger sisters. As time progressed, it became strenuous to keep up with school and raise three girls. Miraculously, I passed the 8th grade and was about to begin my journey to high school. Freshman year…

How much would you trust three of your peers to throw you above their heads, or would you trust yourself to toss any of your peers up and down? Cheerleading requires a lot from athletes, not only is it physically demanding but trust, cooperation and ambition are also needed from cheerleaders. Although cheerleading fits all the criteria of being a sport, it does not always get the proper respect or funding. There are many different types of cheer, most notably, spirit/sideline and competitive…

would sleep on them and have them mashed and matted from laying on them through the night.They were more than just any regular pom poms , they were something I can depend on to change my mood.

But everybody knows that if there is a cheerleader , there is pom…

United States. The way Kennedy behave on his speech was powerful because his voice sounded determent on uniting the people to work together with other country and with their own country. His speech was powerful because the audience were on their feet cheering and I would do the same if someone said something powerful I would stand up and applaud them for giving powerful…

die for my country or I live to see another day. Eventually, it was time; I had to decide to stay with my wife or go out to war and hope to see the family I love again. Next thing I knew, I was on a boat heading to who knows where with shouting men cheering on this country. The sky was blue, the waves were darker than the blue on our rightful flag; and on that day, I knew I was heading for war and it was going to change my life…

of his coffee cup. Who he is I don't know, but I do know we share the same love for the game. The clock is in its final seconds, fans are roaring and the bleachers are shaking. Three, two, one and the buzzer sounds. Fans of the winning team are cheering in victory and the other team are silent with heartbreak. The kids line up and high five the kids on other teams. The sound of those highfives is like music to my ears, these kids have such amazing sportsmanship skills. If only all the fans…

That was embarrassing I love the game of basketball, even when I score in the other team’s basket. In my defense, I was only six years old and it was my first time being on a basketball team. Me and my older brother Houston were on the same team, and at the time we were losing by seven or eight points and there was hardly any time left in the game, maybe a second or two. I was always the smallest kid on the court so I played point guard, which meant that I was the one that would receive the…

side. They used persuasive speech and gave the people offers that caused them to be loyal to them. These two people proved that words are more powerful than weapons. Mark Antony had a tough job he had to give a speech after brutus had the crowd cheering for him. Antony starts to give his speech and he slowly starts to explain why Brutus was wrong. “But Brutus says he was ambitious, and Brutus was an honourable man. He has brought many captives home from Rome, whose ransoms did the coffers…
