I Know What You Did Last Summer

definitely an extreme setback for me, emotionally and physically. I went in for surgery July 17th,2014 a freshman now soon to be going into my sophomore year and i was on bed rest for the entire summer. As an athlete loving the sport I play and having so much passion it was unpleasant knowing that I was going to miss an entire season. For the entire summer, it was hard for me to walk again because I was still in pain. I can definitely say I was going through a distraught time in my life having…

show off their skills they have in this sport. Someday, I would like to be one of those people. The road will be hard and tough, but if I stay stay strong and confident, I may be someday, an NBA Star. My journey would begin in a rec league when I’m about 9 to 10 years old. For me this was my first time playing against other people that I didn’t know. But I stayed strong, even though I didn’t play my best that day, I knew that this was the sport I wanted to play all my life. Now we fast forward…

I believe everyone is familiar with stupidity. You know exactly how it feels as your brains are missing, so you can’t think about some things you want. In addition, when you are screw-up, you will think about why the others are so much smarter than you, how they are smart and how to fix the mistake. I know deeply how hard it is to fix the fear in our mind because I have experience about it and been failure as you fall in cliff then how to climb it without fighting. It isn’t impossible to reach…

I met Mikennon during the tender age of five, I still have a vague memory of sitting in my dad’s big blue lazy boy. I had a ball in my lap and was watching gargoyles. He walked in the door, we looked at each other. I invited him to sit on the couch and watch cartoons with me. I had no idea that this weird chubby kid would be like during middle school and Into high school. Not to mention the step-mother that would come in the Big Mac package. When Mikennon and I were little, we lived in garden…

Ultima is a bildungsroman because the development of Antonio Marez unfolds as the book progresses while he searches for his role in the world. Antonio did not change simply because he aged throughout the duration of the novel, but due to experiences he encountered that influenced his changes. His experiences made him question his beliefs, morals, and what he wanted to do with the rest of his life. All of these questions may sound familiar because these are the types of questions that we all ask…

An accomplishment I had in my past was only have 5 loses on entire season of baseball last year. In years past we had been very bad. We worked our tails of every practice and during lifting we came back every year better than the last. Last year was so special because it was our last year together, we had been together for 5 years through thick and thin and in the past year we really got it together. I wasn't easy but we did it. It really shows when we slaughter teams who used to cream us,…

vegetables. They had a grapevine growing along the fence in their backyard. Pear and plum trees growing at the side of their home yielded fruit for Millie’s family all summer long. Each summer Tilly sent home large grocery bags filled with fresh tomatoes from her garden. So it came as quite a surprise when Mille discovered her mother did not have any natural ability to grow anything. Unlike her grandparents’ yard, Millie’s lawn was distressed. How she envied her next-door neighbor’s lush green…

students of my middle school dreaded only one thing about summer: “summer reading”. Not only were the required books notoriously dull, they were also difficult to relate to as a twelve-year-old with problems typical of adolescents. As an avid reader, this disappointed me. I had no issue with the written assignments about the reading that needed to be completed, but each year I was left wishing the book had been more interesting. When I was in seventh grade, this dry spell was broken for the…

trees, your belly is filled with M&M’s and campfire cooked s 'mores. You can feel a sense of belonging in the mid summer air. Your closest friends surrounding you, and within the comfortable silence not a word is spoken but there is so much noise. The noise of the river 10 feet away, the warm breeze running through the trees and underbrush,…

When I was young I had a hard childhood, I was placed into 4 different schools when I was about five years old. And I had a hard time adapting to those schools until I settled in R.H Dana. I learned and knew how to read since I was three, but as I got older I started learning how to write, and I had time a difficult time on how to be an efficient writer. I wasn’t placed into regular math and English classes until I was In the 8th grade, and since then I was starting to get discouraged ever since…
