Dry ice

triple loop, the feeling of the ghost cold air pushing against my face as I soar across the ice. The best of all though is the feeling of being on the open ice with no one else on it but you and the judges staring at you and an arena full of people chanting your name and screaming. That is what I thought my life was going to be like, but boy was I wrong, although that is exactly my life on the ice. My life on the ice is probably the only thing I really truly love with all my heart. That and my…

white whirlpool fridge, also a white whirlpool microwave, and a white toaster. We were making apple crisp with a big white whirlpool oven. Ciara asked me, “Skylar, could you make the dry mix for the apple crisp?” I answered back with a positive attitude, “Yes, of course.” So I was getting the ingredients out for the dry mix, I noticed that we didn’t have cinnamon. I nervously walked outside to my mom whom is 37 years old. I walked over…

Imagine yourself sitting in a car while it’s spinning out of control and not knowing what exactly to do, but just holding on to the car door. Your knuckle’s turning white from all the strength you are putting to hold on the door. Sitting in the spinning car afraid of what will happen next. Seeing people worried and frighten faces as you spin. Turning to look at your mom and seeing her try to get control of the car to avoid hitting another car or someone.

because of how little the league was. Fewer teams, fewer games to be played. Mikita also had real temper that made their games more interesting to watch. He managed to rack up 149 penalty minutes in the 1964 regular season due to a lot of fighting on the ice. "I realized most of the penalties were additions of 10 minutes - misconducts. I also tried to knuckle down and stop the stupid lazy penalties, the hooks, the trips and the holds. I also realized I couldn't talk the referees out…

One of the most prominent effects of climate change is the melting of ice. Glaciers and ice sheets are slow-moving assemblages of ice that cover approximately 10% of the world’s land area. By impacting the temperature and precipitation of a precise area, climate change affects the mass balance of glaciers and ice sheets. If the temperature exceeds a specific degree, glaciers and ice sheets will lose mass. One of the finest-documented examples of glacial retreat has been based upon Mount…

“Apply all of your corrections, think about everything we have practiced, and have fun! Put your minds to what it is you want to accomplish.” These were the words of my synchronized skating coach before we took to the ice at Nationals. In February 2014, my team and I competed at the U.S. Synchronized Skating Championships in Colorado Springs, Colorado. We had a great season leading up to this point, medaling at all but one competition and only missing that one by about half a point. This was…
