Cheetah

lioness walks noiselessly past her car and halts at the waterhole. She crouches down and starts to lap up the crocodile infested water. Katherine snaps her camera rapidly, feeling extremely lucky; this is her fourth good sighting today. She about the cheetah cubs and the leopard and the black rhino she spotted not long before the lioness. Man, I feel like I’ve won the lottery, Katherine muses excitedly. Exhausted, Katherine turns the key in the ignition and continues to drive through the…

His hand were so fast they were like shooting stars. When Bryan got home he found his mom laying on the floor. He took her to the hospital really quick (faster than a cheetah). A few minutes later after waiting he went up to the doctor and said “Is there anything wrong”? The doctor said “ we will need to do surgery or else she will be at the risk of dying”. Bryan was in shock he didn't know what to do to get the…

Billionaires, bombers, and belly dancers are what Americans see arabians as. The movie American Arabs proves those stereotypes wrong. Usama Alshabai, the producer, director, and editor of the documentary works hard to make sure that it is clear Arabs in America mean no harm. The arabians featured in the documentary are hard working, normal, strong people. So what is it that makes it hard for Americans to picture these people as such? Americans love tv. As of 2015 40 million Americans had a…

of teen pop songs during the early 2000s. I have a playlist I play while driving that is dedicated to this period of my life, and it's my playlist of choice most of the time. Half of the songs come from Disney movies such as High School Musical, Cheetah Girls, and Camp Rock. The other half, influenced by my cousin, includes early 2000s hits: Maroon 5's "She Will Be Loved," "Me and You" by Cassie, and "We Belong Together" by Mariah…

When I think of The Wombats, I think of odd-but-fun lyrics and upbeat, borderline psychedelic music, and the band's latest album, "Beautiful People Will Ruin Your Life," provides just that. The first song on the album, "Cheetah Tongue," was pre-released as a single. The song itself is pretty simple, but the lyrics are very visual. I really like the line, "My hands shake like jellyfish when you're near." It also mentions black flamingos, which is a song title later in the album. The ridiculous…

If there is one subject I am worthy of teaching, it is how to kill everyone a player sees in Battlefield 4 (a wonderful video game) from 500 meters with a perfectly placed headshot. I am prepared to give three main tips for sniping success that everyone should know: always lead the target, always finish them off, and always check for other snipers. First off, players should always lead their target. Whether they are sprinting, walking, crouch-walking, or crawling, players will generally need to…

Some people recognize similarities between them and characters from movies that they watch or from books that they read. I strongly think that I share many similarities with the character Rudy from the movie Rudy, and I think we are alike in many ways. To begin with, in the movie, Rudy never gave up once and always gave one hundred percent of his effort when he played on the field. Also, like me, Rudy loved sports and was always focused on getting better, and it was easy to tell because of…

seen in my life. We go inside and I think, It looks bigger inside than outside. I go upstairs to see my new room. It is beautiful. I go back downstairs like a kangaroo. My mom helps me with my suitcase. “Thanks, Mom!” I say as I run upstairs like a cheetah in the hurry. I unpack my stuff and look outside. I think to myself, Oh, tomorrow is going to be the best day ever. I go to bed questioning myself about how they made a house like this one. The next morning, I wake up and I get dressed. I…

A Lesson Learned Throughout my life, I have learned that perseverance and hard work is the key to success. From the many battles I’ve faced, being diagnosed with thyroid cancer was one of the worst. Every obstacle I’ve conquered has shaped me into who I am today. This was my senior year of high school; I had my mind set on how amazing it was going to be. Aside from all of the stress from college applications and senior exemptions, the year was going great, until an unexpected phone call was…

Reading the story about the one legged wrestler (Anthony Robles), it got my interested about other athletes that have had success while having some type of physical disadvantage. What really caught my interest, and a question that I wanted to explore on was Have there been any other instances in sports where having a physical disadvantage is considered cheating some people’s eyes. In Anthony robles case they said that his upper body was a lot bigger then all of the people in his weight class,…
