I have always tried to live my life without regrets, so this assignment was kind of hard for me. I had to sit down and really think about what it is that I would want to tell my younger self. Then it finally hit me, one thing I would tell myself as a child is to take more opportunities that come my way. Not saying that we should take every opportunity, but to enjoy life a little more when we are given the chance to. I would explain to my younger self that we may not realize it now but we have…
Dennis Prager once said “Goodness is about character - integrity, honesty, kindness, generosity, moral courage, and the like. More than anything else, it is about how we treat other people.” From the minute you are born your family starts inflicting some sort of moral principle, rather it be a good one, bad one or one that you even follow at all. One of the first things I remember my parents saying as a child is to not do something to another, if I did not want it done to myself. Up to this day,…
School is one of the worst places for me to be. It 's a place full of strangers and stress. Teachers throw all of this work at you, and each of them expect you to have it done. But they never stop to think about the individual. They don 't think about what 's going on with their students and whether or not they are capable of doing the work. Yes, you may be physically capable of it, but no one cares if you 're mentally capable. cafe People don 't care how you 're really doing. They may ask but…

Jada had dropped the girls off to their Grandparent’s house and was about to go home to start dinner. She decided to go to the mall for just a quick moment. She never gave him a gift for Christmas and she wanted to do something for him now. Jada was in the kitchen finishing up dinner. He came in and said, “Smells good.” She turned around and smiled, “Thank you.” She noticed he looked tired and with concern she came over to him and asked, “Are you okay?” He smiled and replied, “I am now.”…
One artist that a lot of people know and love to talk about is Eminem. Lots of people either love him or hate him. The music he writes is different from a lot of artist. The sense of hurmor he has some people discribe as sick and obscene. Although that 's not how I see it. I see and relate to what he talks about. He has a message if you listen to his music with an open mind. He tells his story in his music through the hurmor and obscene lyrics. He makes fun of the rough times and the good times…
I lived a very fortunate life. My life was not perfect, but there wasn’t much I had to worry about. Tragedy had never entered before. All of that changed when I was informed of horrifying news one January afternoon. There are two days that I can recall perfectly. The first one was the day my granny had a stroke. The second was the day she passed away. I was in physical therapy with my mom for my back. She got a phone call and I knew the second she answered it something was not right. She…
HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Cindy, I first met you in grade 9 French class. I still remember sitting one row behind you. The first interaction we had was probably when we were doing a French activity where we were supposed to meet someone and find out more about them. I was using a pen at the time and somehow managed to spell your name wrong, so I crossed it out, scribbling messily around my paper. As time passed, I was miserably failing my tests, while you were pretty much getting perfect on each one. I…
Patrick hated sleeping. It wasn 't because he couldn 't sleep. It wasn 't because he had nightmares. It wasn 't even because he was wasting time not making music. It was because of his boyfriend, Pete. Ever since Pete and Patrick moved in together, Pete had been taking trips out in the middle of the night. At first Patrick had thought it was because Pete needed to go to the bathroom; so he went back to sleep. However, one night, Patrick decided to stay awake longer when Pete was up. Patrick…
The day had finally come: Valentine 's Day 2016. On this day, I had no plans, no previous engagements, and for the first time in weeks, I had a weekend all to myself. With all this newfound free time on my hands, I decided I would do the unthinkable. I would do something so drastic, so unheard-of in this society, that I might even become a local legend. I decided I would help people for free, in the form of shoveling their driveways free of snow. It had snowed all morning on the Sunday of…
