Sitting Bull

The Little Things “Mom what’s a pillow fort?” I looked at my Mom sitting on the couch next to me,”Allison you don’t know what a pillow fort is?” She looked at me smiling and said,”We’re gonna build one ok? Lemme me move the couches…” I remember at that moment being so excited, just thinking “Wow! I’m going to have my own fort!” I ran around the house helping my mom get all the blankets and pillows needed for my little sanctuary. When it was all said and done it looked a lot worse than I had…

It doesn’t mean that everyone is my friend or that I agree with everything the person does, but I let them be who they are. It doesn’t mean that if I don’t agree with someone then I’ll try to change them, but it’ll show me their true colors. Sitting with someone who is alone at lunch or just spending some time to ask how someone’s day is doing, can really make the person feel welcomed and alone. You might’ve just made a new friend, like me when I just showed someone how to get to the cafeteria…

sit across from us in the restaurant, but the teenage girl refused to sit there and asked to sit somewhere else. Every time this girl passed us to refill her drink, she rolled her eyes. It appeared that we were making her very uncomfortable. Also, sitting in the corner near us, were a group of teenage boys who kept on looking over at us. Every time one of the teenage boys passed they gave us a funny look. As the experiment continued and Alegra’s daddy and I were trying to feed Alegra her…

Meta was sitting on the on the edge of her bed watching and waiting for the clock to turn midnight, so she can begin celebrating her twenty-fourth birthday. While she sat her mind began to reflect back on her life experiences. One particular experience stands out more than all the rest; she recalls an incident when she was eight years and got stitches. Early on a spring day in California in 1999, where the mornings can be cold, by the afternoon it can get really hot. She laughs at herself,…

Awakened in a white and black bed, in a white and black room, while wearing white and black clothes. A boy, aged about ten years with fair skin, black hair and black eyes. He sits up, fumbling carefully with the white blanket draped upon him. He turned his head to the left wall which was closest to him, and sees a painting of a gray flower. Then turning towards the right he sees a white wall with a black door. He doesn’t move from his spot. Not now, it just didn’t feel right. He’ll do it when…

Korbyn was walking around the classroom as usual, despite of the rules during the music lessons. He was given two (2) strikes already by not following directions and not participating. He got up from his chair, walked around and stopped right behind me. Then he shaped his hand cylindrical, and started moving it back and forth in front of his pants. Several students witnessed what Korbyn did, and raised their hands to let me know what they saw. I caught what he was doing with the corner of my…

you aren’t welcomed in their circle. Races is still found today but some people of the same culture aren’t races and they accept you how you are. These is a norm because the rest of the African American family weren’t so happy we were going to be sitting next to them knowing we weren’t the same color , we were them Mexicans they called…

relational continuity constructional units (151) used when the employee expressed that she had to go back to work. Both the mother figure and the son figure stood of to hug her, but the younger teenage daughter remained sitting. Instead, the worker standing stroked the head of the girl sitting – a nonverbal action of haptics (76) which spoke volumes. I took special notice of how each table ended their conversations. I noticed that hugging was more common between females, while a more accepted…
