At the turn of the fourth and fifth centuries, we see the fall of the Western Roman Empire in Europe, replaced by the numerous Germanic tribes surrounding the borders to the North. This set the stage for what would become of Europe and set the…

It was very late at night. I was not a hundred percent sure what time it was. If I were to guess, I would say that it was 11:30. As I was thinking to myself, I said "Wow it is really late I need to go to bed". As I was getting ready to lie down I heard a loud bang.

When I heard another loud noise, a short time later I decided to go back downstairs to see for myself what it could…

I would be insanely stressed until I could bring my grade up, and even when I did, I would stress myself out trying to maintain an A. Every homework assignment I would get would have to be perfect, usually meaning that I worked on it for hours more than the average student would. This also meant that I procrastinated to the point of having to perfect it last minute, and in result, stay up late to do it. My teachers…
