Cross-dressing

lap at the state cross country meet. That was the moment when I knew I could finish this race with a personal record. For five months, I had worked hard to qualify for state. When most kids were sleeping, I was running. When most kids were at the pool on hot summer days, I was running. It wasn’t just me though, I was on a team of nineteen fantastic girls and I had a great coach to keep me motivated. We were a close group of girls, whom would not have been friends without cross country. We had a…

BushBoots The product we selected is Timberlands. Australia markets do not sell these kinds of boots and making the choice to import them would be very beneficial for the sellers. These boots aren’t your typical boots that ware out in a couple months of good use, these boots are made for hiking, camping, and for pretty much any situation. Australia has boots but not the good quality that Timberlands have to offer. Timberlands are better quality and would last longer than any other type of boot…

costliest hurricane since Sandy in 2012. In North Carolina and South Carolina, swollen rivers transformed thoroughfares into canals and homes into sodden islands, in some cases with only the roof or the windows peeking above the water. American Red Cross quickly responded to this natural disaster by giving assistance to the areas and people that needed it. The charity was able to provide 103,000 overnight stays in shelters and evacuation centers, serve more than 1.4 million meals and snacks,…

work. I told Jordan about the stomach issue just not that appointment. I didn't want to distract him from his next cross country meet because I knew this was a big deal for him. The doctor said something in my stomach could erupt. I felt like I was paralyzed with terror. Her doctor suggested an ultrasound just to make sure everything's okay. After the ultrasound I wanted to go to her cross country practiced. Her mother took her and dropped her off. It was raining, so I left her phone in the car…

Everyone acts a different way when they feel out of place. One of the most awkward moments is interacting with other non-familiar cultures. Interpersonal communication is affected when dealing with non-familiar cultures in a negative way because communication is very important and speaking to someone who is from a different country, has difference believes, and not to mention speaks a different langue is very difficult. In my opinion this is considered a linear view because when you try to…

Greetings classmates, A 3 mile run from my house is a historic place that was settled by the Timucua Indians, French and Spanish explorers. The run takes place on mostly shaded sidewalk with some dappled sunlight. Occasionally, I will have my iPhone with me for music and tracking purposes but sometimes I don’t bring it. There are rarely other runners when I run. The run there and back is a time of reflection to gain focus and clarity about the coming events. There is a Theodore Roosevelt Trail…

of my life ever since I can remember, my mom and my grandmother have inspired me so much with this sport. It all started when I won my first race in third grade, that was the moment when I really fell in love with running. My sophomore year of cross country is when my running career came to a stop because of my shin hurting, at first I thought it was just shin splints because I had been running hard for the two weeks prior. Then the pain lasted for three weeks and during that time I was…

A cosmopolitan archaeologist is someone that is able to connect and transition to different cultures with no trouble. Many archeologists are not cosmopolitan because they focus on impractical conclusions about what has transpired in the past.

This means that archaeologists will essentially have to engage in…
