As I drove through Belden Village on what was a very pleasant February night, there was a different atmosphere than that of the previous months. Excitement filled the air as it was the beginning of a new era. As I passed the Chick-fil-a parking lot, I noticed that it was not filled to its usual capacity. I had finally arrived at my destination that I had longed for many months. Cars were filed around the building twice and occupied the entire parking lot down to Value City Furniture, as police…
some reason, I could not get a hit . As if I hit a wall that did not acquiesce me to hit the ball . And I knew he thought of that about me. I put in the hard work and talent to show my coach what I was capable of. There I was, May 22, 2015 on a Friday practicing for my semi-final baseball game the…
It was one gloomy Friday evening and it was raining cats and dogs. The week before that a close family friend & neighborhood mother went to her heavenly home. She finally had given up on her long battle with breast cancer. Ms. Jane was one of the sweetest neighborhoods old ladies you can say who always had a store house that attracted many people both young and old for her famous sweet potatoes pies, which she sold for Two dollar and Twenty-Five cent. When I received the news after coming home…
place like my school. My point would be that I only come to school because I find motivation in the sports that this school has to offer. I tell myself I have to turn my homework in, or I need to read this page, and study so I can pass my test to play Friday night. I believe sports gives so much more than what others who just observe the activity. Personally I’ve gained more than I could’ve have from sports than school that I can apply to the life I will start when I graduate from high school,…
A Football Life The statement “participated in Varsity football”, doesn't nearly come close enough to explain the amount the impact that football has had on my life. Next to my parents and my church, football has shaped me to the person I am today more than anything else. As I look back on my high school career the words of Vince Lombardi hold more truth than ever when he said “Football is like life - it requires perseverance, self-denial, hard work, sacrifice, dedication and respect for…
Charles pounded his feet on the floor during story-time. As a result, he had to stand in a corner. On Friday, “Charles was deprived of blackboard privileges because he threw chalk”(346). These events proved that Charles is individualistic. Over the next week, Charles continued to behave poorly. As Charles continues to transgress, his fame continues to grow. On Monday, Charles “yelled in school”(347), and therefore, had to stay…
The Crimson sun rises to the sky as the loud construction begins to roar through the streets, as it is an alarm clock just for me. However to be a late sleepers drilling is what you should fear, drill drill is what you will only hear for hours to day to months the noise will never escape your mind when you try fall asleep for this is the city that never sleeps. With a view that defines beauty, different buildings are something I see. Some made out of brick others with pointy tips. Brown, red…

we went on a bike ride with my dad or my older brothers. There was a half pipe made of dirt and we would always ride on it. Also, we would ride next to the mailboxes where I would get dropped off from the bus. The color of my bike is purple with writing on it, it is a mountain bike with 6 gears.…
