Friday Night Games

Taxidermy means for hunters to hunt large animals and dangerous fame after the show. The main motivation for the development of taxidermy as an art and science technologies, increasing interest in natural history, especially since the Enlightenment and the rise of private collections. Regardless of ancient human specimens in the history of Egypt, China, Iran, etc. from the mid 17th century and early 18th century, the first use of chemicals to protect the skin, hair and feathers of animals and…

The sport I find this easiest to do in for me is basketball even if I'm playing on hard wood it doesn't scare me I’ve done this since I started the sport. Just last week on the eighth of January I did this and it helped my team in a big way. These games also came just two weeks after I had a shoulder injury from fighting…

The day started like any other, but the same could not be said for how it ended. I arrived at the town golf course, Longshore, about 30 minutes before my tee time. There was slight cloud coverage, minimal wind, and a comfortable temperature. Glints of sun through the clouds periodically illuminated blades of grass, almost signaling for the ball to be hit there. The bentgrass took a deep, rich shade of green from the recent douses of rain. The course looked inviting and manicured, taunting…

every other year like a back and forth thing, it’s EVERY SINGLE YEAR. But this year, we have prepared for this game for weeks on end. There will be blood. The sun was setting with a bright and beautiful orange glow that looked like our helmets. It was a cool Monday afternoon, a perfect day to play football. I was feeling more energetic than usual. I think it was because before the game our whole bus was jamming out and getting pumped. We were playing at Chatham, their home field. You can’t get…

Throughout my high school basketball career, I have met with my coach three days per week for one-on-one workouts to perfect my ball handling and shooting form. I wanted to be a much better basketball player, and was willing to put the work in to improve my game every day. I made the Varsity basketball team as a freshman, but didn't see the court at all. I didn't care much for minutes at the time, I just thought it was the coolest thing to be on my school basketball team and play with the best…

My sophomore year of high school, I received an award for Most Improved in cross country. That day I felt on top of the world. As a matter of fact, I felt on top of the world that entire season. I was never athletic, as a matter of fact, before joining Track the year before, I had never ran more than three feet in my entire life. The first day of cross country was an awful start. We had to time our first mile in the 90 degree heat. Needless to say, I walked home that day feeling a bit…

If you want to be in a boy's head, just land straight on it. The summer of 2008 had just stared. You could find me in the park playing soccer with my mates 24/7. I was an 11year old girl who was in love with playing soccer and upon this day I still am. Strangely enough the day of the incident I was not playing soccer, I was playing tag. My friends and I decided to climb on the top of a slide so it would be very hard to get tagged. Unfortunately the tagger didn’t think that way and ran to the…

soccer game. As the players warmed up, Hannah Weatherly, an All-American forward, inspected the Mississippi State players like a spider stalking its prey. As the referee’s lips touched the whistle to start the game, the players hustled as if their lives depended on it. Throughout the game, shots were fired; penalties were taken, and tackles were made. The fans throughout the game boasted, “Hotty Toddy!” The game ended 1-0 Ole Miss with a finesse shot by Weatherly to seal the deal. That night, I…

Grant gave it to Raj, who tried to pull off a lay-up in the congested frontcourt. Sadly, he missed. I saw Alex’s anger build up as his face reddened. Coach, seeing the trouble, called a timeout, somehow calming Alex down. By halftime of the first game of the league’s season, Alex was back to his angry state, acting aggressively on court and fouling out. Brian, a slightly shorter but still hulking player, took over as center. During the 10 minute halftime break, Alex was…

lay down. I paced back and forth thinking how am I going to tell my mother, my little brother got off by a car. My teenage years passed by so quickly. At this time I was into sports, basketball being my favored. I would be at the basketball courts night and day or I would just walk the block bouncing a basketball. I remember playing at the YMCA I was positioned as a point guard because of my accomplishments. After playing with the YMCA I joined other city by the name of River Park…
