I am a full time competitive swimmer and I swim about 16 hours a week and it is very hard for me to make time to volunteer in my community. As my high school years are coming to an end I want to make it a goal to volunteer more and make time even when I think I do not have any time. I feel guilty because I am so fortunate to live the life I have and I need to give back to those who have…

parapsychologist and the leader of the Ghostbusters. Peter and I are similar because we are both funny, random, and very talkative. Peter and I are both funny. Peter was never serious with anything he did, and he always had an amusing comment to add to any situation. In my opinion, I can be capricious at times. I love having a good laugh and sharing one. Sometimes when I’m goofing off with friends, I can sometimes get myself in hindrance. At times, Peter and I may say something that has…

I get frustrated when staff members come in and stop me from working on whatever is in front of me to help them. It really bothers me when people change the way things work after I was told to do another…

Either way I do not wish to tie up my happiness and poke and prod it to figure it out. I’d rather just revel in it and experience my peace since I know it can’t last for long. At least not here, not like this. I sit in the long grass as I feel my skin absorbing the sun. The grass prickles…
