    Project #1: Literacy Narrative I remember walking across the lawn from our tiny add on classroom, up the stairs, and into the second grade class. Walking to my assigned desk directly in front of the window, I sat down in front of my best friend.

    I was born April 3, 2002, on a Wednesday night. It was a beautiful day. I saw my mother and family for the first time. I can’t say that I knew my life was going to be perfect but I knew I was going to make it the best. I’m not going to say I’m the best child in the world because I’m not. I have my ups and downs as everyone else, but I’m only a child. I haven’t seen all that the world has to offer me, but I know I’ve seen some of its best. After being born, I spent four days in the hospital…

The point of the fact that if that's ever happened to you or not we’ve all felt multipole emotions throughout walking on this earth. Which makes that distinctions between us, and a rock. Or even us and a lion. A lion is set to kill, with no doubt or hesitation. We always have a choice. A choice lead by our beliefs and philosophies. Like I’ve also mentioned…

    Beauty on a Mountain The sun had not yet risen, but it was light just enough for us to see where we were going. My sister and I were taking a walk in a forest during a family camping trip. The spring air was cooler than usual even at that hour. The forest was quiet except for our footsteps and the sound of the soft breeze moving through the branches of the trees that surrounded the two of us. We wandered aimlessly at first, climbing on large boulders like young children and weaving our way…
