Goofing off

would add another dimension to the relationship between me and those I will be helping. For instance my top choice, the site at Arkansas Children's Hospital, relates to an childhood event that had occurred. While goofing off with my brothers on top of a bunk bed, my younger brother had fallen off the top bunk bed -head first. Appearing fine as first, he was…

Big Horse, Small Patients "If you fall and shed a tear. I'll sell the horse." My dad has said this to me ever since I was seven years old, that is when he first taught me to ride a horse. There has been many times that I have wanted to cry but choose not too. Just last year, my little sister, Chloe, wanted me to teach her how to ride a horse. We did not know what the outcome would be but I told her that I would teach her. She asked me to teach her when we were feeding the…

I defend my friends, especially my teammates. Even though swimming is an individual sport, it is also a team sport. Waking up at 5:00 in the morning for a two-hour morning workout isn’t something that anyone can do. Having a team there to be encouraging is what gets us through the season; so naturally we become very close. This year New Trier Girls Swimming and Diving is doing a different form of leadership. We have a leadership counsel so more people can speak for the team based on what they…

around. This could lead to disruption in the group and even the class. Students could end up in trouble or receive bad grades due to goofing off and fooling around. Teachers try to be nice and let kids work with in groups, but it just ends badly.…

and then I had to share a room with the Devil himself. I was not impressed. So what? Yeah, he’s extremely cute and only four years old, but he was annoying me!!!!! Who made up the rules about how the youngest gets first priority and who gets to start off in mom’s bed anyway? In fifth grade, I expressed my resentment in a poem: My brother is on the bed right next to me. He’s singing and playing his new kazoo And making me mad all at the same time. I want him to SHUT UP!!! He’s telling…

reality most stores close at 9. If your boss knows about the curfew they are likely to not make you work so long to get you in trouble with the law. Babysitting is a job that comes into question too. Those parents won't be out late all the time most get off of work around 7 or 8 p.m.. It shouldn't be a problem but what if they decide it is date night they might not be home till late. Well all that needs to be done is that those parents sign a paper saying why this teen is out so late and there…

only helps the message come to sight but gives a better description of it. Though the novel doesn’t give a specific season it created the seasons using the boy’s mood throughout a single day. In the morning it is spring, the schoolboys are happily goofing around and in complete joy without supervision. In the afternoon it is summer due to the heat they become less excited but still friendly with one another. Late afternoon was fall it was a mood of fear, which was created for the boys since…

The “Pigman” is a novel that tells the story of three unlikely companions, John Conlan, Lorraine Jensen, and Mr. Pignati, a widower. The timeless tale is “written” by John and Lorraine, who take turns writing their story. The three unlikely friends meet after the teens, along with their mundane friends, Dennis and Norton, prank call Mr. Pignati. The next day, John and Lorraine go to Mr. Pignati’s home to compile the money they pranked out of him with a few prevarications. Things take an…

some noise as my texts kept failing to send as I was spamming him with pictures. The reason as to why my response was appropriate is because Lucas often has bad days and has told me that sometimes the things that cheer him up is when someone else is goofing around and distracting him from overthinking. If I had continued on the conversation and asked him to elaborate further about what happened, he would have shut me out; thus negatively impacting my relationship goals. At times when I was…

Friendship. For me, this word means more than the relationship I have with someone who I know. It means so much more than many people realize. When it comes to what I value most, friends and family are neck and neck as they come to the finish line. If I genuinely call someone friend, the two of us have something that I will do everything in my power to keep. I can't sit back and do nothing if one of my friends is upset. I will at least see if I can help in someway. This I believe, friendship…
