Girl with a One-Track Mind

in high school in very big trouble with the police, and I was on medication for my heart. I had nothing against people who drank, but I personally chose not to. They did not seem to mind that I said no, they seemed to respect…

the Man, a soccer coach says, “You're all excellent players. But girls aren't as fast as boys. - Right. - What? - Or as strong. Or as athletic” (Fickman 2006). In my opinion, sports should be co-ed, but there are some exceptions. I believe that what the coach of the guy’s soccer team is saying is inequitable. I have always been involved in a sports team during my life through soccer, gymnastics, and track. I believe that girls are just as fast and as strong as guys can be as long as they…

Being one of the only Mexican American girls at a school filled with extremely wealthy students made me feel uncomfortable. However, instead of confining myself from the community, I looked back upon my family's advice and in a small matter of time, I felt more comfortable living in this neighborhood. I proved to those who doubted me that their assumptions were incorrect; a low income Mexican American girl CAN persevere such obstacles and attain high achievements…

controversial, but one of the game's designers was unhappy with work conditions and decided to take it out in the game's code. He created characters dressed in speedos that would walk around and kiss each other. Number Seven: Tomb Raider. Some code in Tomb Raider allowed players to turn the game into Nude Raider, which let them maneuver Lara Croft around in the nude. This game hack flies in the face of Croft's persona, which is of a strong, independent woman. Number Six: The Sims 2.…

There was a big unkempt field with long grass and a railway track and station house on the edge of that field. Across the road facing the station house stood a storey-and-a-half red brick house. The picture changed to the inside of the house and the kitchen area located in the back. There was a coal/wood stove with…

When I was three years old, I had to get five stitches. Getting those (dem) stitches did teach me to listen to my mom more carefully. On a sunny day in spring, my mom took me and my brother and sister to the park. The park was my favorite place to go because I got to meet new people and play with them. So, I was playing like I normally did when I saw people playing on the zipline. I had never been on the zipline before but it looked fun. I begged my mom to take me, so finally she took me to…

organization the Girl Scouts of Western Washington are concerned about their diversity, because their organization is not incredibly diverse, they are not serving all of the populations that they could. Participation in the Girl Scouts can be life changing for some, for instance more women who are politicians, CEOs, congresswomen, astronauts, and other leaders in the US were scouts than who were not (Chávez, 2016). The Girl Scouts’ main goal is to empower, educated, and give resources to girls…

It was going to be my last year of track in High school and I was ready to make it count. The first thing on my mind was to make a bigger track team since the year before the track team only consisted of five people. I started asking people if they were interested in doing track, but everybody would say no. Until I asked one of my friends and they said yes that they would do it. I felt accomplished as soon as that one person said yes, and the total number of people we got on the team was roughly…

Once upon a time; long ago, there was a young girl. Her name not to be said aloud. The legend goes that she had some sort of power. The ability to manipulate people into doing whatever she wanted them to, from moving themselves away from all sanity by destroying their own minds, to killing their entire families. She was the definition of conniving on a new level, not just that; she was wicked. Her looks were prepossessing, men found her completely ravishing. She made them see what they wanted to…
