was just something fun to do, little did I know it would end up meaning so much to me. I then continued and played in a league called Big Sioux. I spent most of my younger career playing in this league. Our team was made up of different girls from Harrisburg and were coached by one my teammates. We got a lot of cool opportunities like being able to play at the Sioux Falls arena, which at the time was the coolest thing ever, and also a good foundation for our basketball skills. Once I was in…

Ulysses S. Grant was by far one of america’s generals. He had many battles. Grant’s victory at vicksburg was an amazing win. On May 1, 1863, Grant’s army crossed the mississippi river at the battle of port gibson. Little did Grant know that confederate forces were there. Grant sent a portion of his army under General William T. Sherman to capture the state capitol, Jackson, while setting his sights on vicksburg with a view toward permanently closing the confederate supply base. When initial…

My first interest was Grammer’s singing career. He wrote the song “Honey I’m Good.” Another thing he got to experience in his singing career was going to West palm beach.

The accident showed people how groups of people under lots of stress, react and make decisions from under it. Many people think that the accident went so far because operators made incorrect decisions because of the large amounts of information that was given to the during the accident. The equipment that was used at the plant was also used at other power plants and were shutdown due to the accident. The cleanup for the accident took almost a decade because of the radiation that got out in…

to see your books and supplies spilled all over the hallway. Backpacks would be a simple solution. Many schools have taken away backpack privileges. Losing backpacks have caused many minor issues that are truly effecting on a student. Students at Harrisburg South Middle School should be allowed to carry their backpacks around because it would be more time effective, easier to carry supplies, and less students would forget things in their locker. Students have to stop at their locker after…

I ended up losing my team, my coach, my school, and the Bulldog Pride I wore proudly for sixteen years of my life. Harrisburg was my hometown and will always be my hometown but they turned their backs on me. I will always be grateful to Galatia for opening me with open arms. Remember Bearcats, baseball season is coming up and we are ready for a playoff run. Believe…

31 May 2017, the day I left for Basic Military Training. I had just graduated from Harrisburg High School on the 21st, with the evening before being my big graduation/going away party. Thinking back, I knew I was pretty excited for what was to come, even with the slight nerves that were stirring in me as the date drew closer. But before I knew it, I was at the beginning of my training. I was fresh out of high school, and while everyone I knew was enjoying the summer after graduation, I was…

Every experience in life no matter the duration of the event has positives and consequences. Not only could the event itself be a good experience or a bad one, but the opportunities that are missed because of the current circumstances can become the consequences at the time. However, along with missed opportunities go opportunities given, not because of how hard one tries at something, not how much money someone has, but opportunities without even realizing them based on race and skin color.…

The narrative from Knightime has helped expand my knowledge and insight into the Battle of Gettysburg and the New York draft riots because in pervious schooling, teachers did not go into detail about the New York draft riots. In chapter six it says, “The wealthy were among the easy targets of the frustrated or callous rioters…. But the easiest targets was the black population. Section of town and color easily identified them. Tradition and practice had not accustomed them to fighting back”.…
