It is believed by some that parents should linger over…

In The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins, what used to be North America is now the country of Panem which consists of a rich Capitol and twelve other districts. As a punishment for past rebellion by the districts, the Capitol forces each district to give a male and female teenager to fight to the death in what is called the Hunger Games, while all of Panem is forced to watch on television.…
Gum!! I would have to say that gum is the single most awesome invention in the world. I say this mainly because I would have never thought that something could be made to where it was edible; that could start as a solid piece of perfection, and then gradually transform its self into a stretchy, balloon blowing, way too much fun to play with when you are done piece of gum. All of this just in a matter of moments after chewing and savoring that juicy flavor of perfection. Though I love me some…

Everything began in their youth.…
When comparing the Premier data of hospitals utilizing a 5-level triage system, the percentage of patients triaged at a level 3 acuity is 38% compared to 65% at SHRB ED. Moreover, the percentage of admits according to the Premier average is 18.2% in comparison with 23% at SHRB ED (Premier, 2014, p. 1-29).

surgeons was offly small with only ten chairs. When my parents and I get there there was another man in his twenties and a woman in her thirties with her three year old son. It wasn’t too long until they took me back to a room with two chairs, a recliner,a row of tall yet thin tan lockers, a small table, and machines to calculate blood pressure and pulse. I entered the room and my first problem began, the nurse told me that I had to change into the gown. It really shouldn’t, but this completely…
The arrival of winter was soon to be here. The sky had opened up to a new luster with the disappearance of the already fallen leaves.

In November 2008, I was a normal teenage girl in the eighth grade, when my mother, Stacie Laprarie, was diagnosed with breast cancer. I remember this day very clearly. I had a normal day at school, only to come home and find both my parents upset. As soon as my brother and I walked in the door, our parents sat us down at the kitchen table, to tell us that our mom had received a phone call from her doctor and, she has been diagnosed with breast cancer. They told us not to worry, and they…
