High Noon

For the first time in my life, my small world was looking up for me. That was, until my whole life imploded around me like it was swallowing me whole. Life was perfect. I was to transfer schools to Lemme Elementary before I went to South East Junior High. Although I was sad to leave my small private school could still visit all my old friends I had known since kindergarten. I had a wonderful softball team with all my new found friends. Then, the pivotal point in my life began. My family went on…

Knowing the eight dimensions of wellness is essential in making wellness a part of one’s everyday life. The first dimension deals with emotions and coping effectively with life and creating satisfying relationships (Eight Dimensions of Wellness, 2017). I was worried when I first moved in that I would be quite homesick and miss my family too much, but really, once I settled in and made a bunch of new friends to this day I have never once felt unusual and have created many new friendships that…

Bittersweet memories During my senior high school time, year 2010-2012, that is the time where most of my unforgettable memories come from, participating in a group of hip hop dance with my 3 members of my schoolmates, compete in many local schools, made a performance in my school’s event, even though we didn’t win the first place in the competition, the time we spend together is what matters. Also, I had a very best friend, a girl, named Ria, that time is the first time I had such a really…

Each year hundreds of thousands of fans come to tailgate and support their former or favorite colleges, earning millions for schools and companies that sponsor them. It is illegal for athletes to receive any form of payment even though we are the ones that bring in the revenue. Being a division one athlete is not as good as it seems, because the NCAA and its schools do not pay it’s student athletes. The dedication, hard work, and sacrifices of student athletes are taken advantage of. Any top…

I’m sure we’ve all heard of Billy Collins at some point and time; whether it was on NPR or an ad on the Internet, everyone probably has come across him at some point. Why I say this is because he’s become such a known poet, he has performed for Congress after 9/11, sold many copies of his published works, and been named “America’s first truly poet since Robert Frost” and to be named that, that mean’s he’s made it. There might be some confusion as to why Collins is so popular if someone hasn’t…

do. She would always grip my soft hair too tight and brush my hair harshly and even brushing my forehead. I stood in front of the mirror in the bathroom, waiting for my mother to do my hair. Once she came in, she brushed my hair and styled it into high pigtails, tied with brightly colored scrunchies. I grudgingly walk to the kitchen to grab my backpack, already tired of the idea of school and wanting to get over it. My mom stopped me, with a puzzled face, asking me if I had breakfast. I shrugged…

The Devil Was Once An Angel It was my first day of high school when I met Perla. My sister, my mom, my dad, and I had just moved from the cold city of São Paulo to Salvador, Bahia, located in the northwest coast of Brazil. Perla was the pretty, light skinned, mysterious girl with long dark hair, who sat in front of me. Throughout my freshman year, we became best friends. We shared clothes, secrets, aspirations, memories, and dreams. We spent way too much time together. Monday through Friday,…

very beneficial to me because it forced me to socialize with people and I learned how to manage my time properly. If I didn’t attend Good Hope, I don’t think I would have these skills. I continued my extracurricular like, volunteering throughout my high school career and I plan to do the same now that I am in…

Cake I do not own Grey's Anatomy. I just couldn't get this out of my head so I had to write it out. Just a heads up, I'm not sure of Lexie's exact birthday, so I've made it November 24th mainly because it works with the pregnancy storyline. And since she was born in 1984 that would make her thirty-three in this story. Also, Ethan is five and Paisley is two. Okay, enough of that, enjoy. Rated T Lexie opens her eyes, feeling around for Mark's body as she wakes. The house is impossibly cold and…
