I learned that we do not take an ap exam for second semester we just have a project. i successfully completed the survey. what makes me unique or different from others is my choice of sport which is wrestling. with that being said i feel like it has became a big part of me this summer and over the the course of my years here at evanston. this sport has taught me to be polite aggressive tough and to never give up. now that i am the captain of the team i would look at myself as a rolemodel. other…

As soon as I got out of the car, the heat hit me like I was in a sauna. I fumbled through my bag looking for a hat, only looking up for a second when I heard a familiar voice. It was David, whom I’ve practically known my whole life and was a huge part of my tennis career. I saw him everyday up until a few months ago when he decided to take a year off from coaching at the club to help out at Norwalk Grassroots. He came back now and then to visit or have indoor lessons with inner city kids…

morning, as I hit the screen and see the digital read out on my serene Hawaiian backdrop as it reads out clearly 5:45a.m. Oh God! I have to get ready for school once again. It’s Wednesday morning already. Where did the time go! I never got around to finishing up that Economics project that I really needed for extra points so that I can stay above water in the class.

Let me tell you a little bit about me. I’m Kai, I’m eighteen years old, I’m in my last year of highschool, and I get abused by the only family I have left, my father.

the issues I have faced throughout the Chapter 1- 28.2282° N, 112.9388° E- Changsha, China For my entire life, I’ve known I was adopted. I never had a long talk with my parents about it. Of course, they tell me stories and show me pictures, but I have had a talk with my family about why they decided to adopt and the process of it. My family while adopting me traveled with other families from the US looking to adopt. Growing up, I began thinking more and more about where I come from. I have…

Throughout the summer I decided that I wanted to spend most of my time volunteering at youth cheerleading camps. Not only did I get the chance to interact with younger girls and set a good role model, but I also got the chance to work with other girls my age who have talent and loves cheerleading just as much as I do! The two camps I was a part of was the Danny Lansanah Football/Cheerleading Camp and the Packers & Broncos Cheerleading Camp. Both camps were located at John Harris High School for…

I somehow got myself dragged into running cross country this year. Don’t get me wrong, I like playing sports. I played basketball and ran track in middle school, I just wasn’t planning on playing sports this year. The first time cross country was brought up was near the end of my 8th grade year. A parent knew I liked running and that I was going to be in high school next year, and they wanted me to try it out. “You should try it,” she told me, “you’ll really like it! I think you’d be great at it…

Mississippi it is not every day that you hear of someone with an interest in studying Fashion. From a very young age I have been interested in the Fashion Industry. While attending fashion prep summer camps at Mississippi State University, I learned about both the business and designing aspects of the industry. Attending these camps showed me that studying fashion is exactly what I want to study in college. Over the next four years I expect to learn everything I need to know about fashion…
