Little Ice Age

Personal Narrative When I was five years old, my family and I went on a road trip to California. this was when I lived in Kansas, so I was really excited to visit family I never met there. My uncle had a skateboard collection and my mom was riding around on a longboard. She asked me if I wanted to learn how to skate. I said yes. That was the best choice I ever made. Ever since then I have been fascinated with skating and learning new tricks. My brothers and I can all skate well, although my…

Skating is something I really hate doing. It is dumb, only thing that would make your butt hurt if you fall and bruise it. When I was a little girl, my dad use to always take my siblings and I skating every Friday. I had a blast. I could do everything, skate backwards, I could dance while skating. One day, it was so packed because of $2 Fridays. I was skating and these teenage girls pushed me on the ground, made me bend my wrist back. I had to to be rushed to the Emergency room, it was not so…

my friend Michael and I were going to the Ann Arbor Ice Rink. Michael had short brown hair combed to the left. Michael had been wanting to learn how to skate for a long time, so today was the day I was going to teach him. ¨Are you ready to learn how to skate¨ ¨I am worried that I will fall and break something¨. ¨Don´t worry you will be fine¨”. ¨Even if you do fall, you will not break anything, hopefully¨. ¨What¨! We got to the ice rink. Michael and I put on our skates and went into…

remember my very first steps into the Orlando Ice Arena, I could feel the cold brisk chill hit my face. I stopped and stared I had never seen such a big rink, there were huge crowds, gorgeous dresses, sparkling medals, and talented skaters everywhere around me. I was in a day dream until I heard my loud family slowly come behind me. When I realized I was in the real world, I quickly noticed that I only had three minutes to put on my skates for practice ice I snapped my skate bag open and…

don’t know” the man said. “We have all the time in this world to do whatever we want. I knew you were coming, I just did not know when!” he said with a chuckle, “Come in! I want to watch something with you!”. Koaye says yes and they walk inside the little house. Inside, it looks modest and is full of color compared to the outside land. The floor is a lush green with a marvelous tangerine orange on the walls with a light absorbing black on the ceiling. Koaye feels at home immediately. In front…

artist and ice-cream man, said of the fourth-floor walk-up in East Harlem where he’s lived for 20 years. He bartered a painting for the stove and rescued the bashed-in mini-chandelier from the trash. It hangs in the kitchen, which has colonized half the living room. The refrigerator stands in a far corner, and steel wire shelves jut out, with dangling pots, pans and heavy-duty sieves at the ready. But the tool that Mr. Youngblood, 49, treasures most is one he doesn’t use any more: a set of…

only one thing that comes to my mind, and that is, the magical season of winter. I believe winter is a better season than summer. A survey on debate.org showed that 58% of people chose winter over summer. Snow angels, snowball fights, snowmobiling, ice skating, creating snowmen, sledding, and snowboarding are all activities that are done in the winter. You might say, “In the summer there are more activities, you can go water skiing, swimming and boating.” When it’s warm outside, there is a…

first year of peewees, There is an age limit of when to play because there is mite, squirt, peewee, bantam, and then midget. So back in about 2013 I was playing my first year of peewees and the team was nothing really special at the first few games then our team got together and worked well. Me and my former linemate became known as the gruesome twosome, yes now I look at the name it sounds weird but I did not think that at the time, but when we got on the ice we knew exactly what each other…

Ice Skating And that’s how I broke my leg, just kidding, but I bruised it really badly, here’s the story behind that. was December 2014, my sister had discovered the “joy” of ice skating and was obsessed with it. She constantly asked my parents if her and her friends could go ice skating at the arena. I had never gone ice skating before and asked her one day if I could go with her and her friend Lucy. We got in the car to go pick up Lucy with the usual silence the whole ride. When we…

At the young age of 17, Henrietta got married to a man named John who was 20 years her senior. This means the wedding took place in the month of November in the year 1952. Even though he was a number of years older, she did not care. They were truly in love because she lit up every time we would talk about him. He was from Indonesia, but was living in the Netherlands (due to the Dutch rule in Indonesia). He was twenty years older than her but that did not seem to bother her discourage her…
