This quote relates to one of many ways I feel about running. By being a runner, I have come very far as a person. I would not be the person I am if I didn’t have such a love for this demanding sport. To me, being a runner is more than just an extracurricular for fun and because of this I have been taught many valuable life lessons. Throughout my life I have done many sports, but I have never found anything I was good at. I decided to try cross country, and after the first practice, I knew this…

bare toes all the way up to my ears. Slowly I pushed off the stiff sheets and stood. My head felt heavy on top of my body, weighted with confusion and regret. They’ve told me I can’t blame myself for not seeing it sooner, most people could never figure it out themselves, but I can’t help thinking about how irrational it all seems now. How could I actually think that as businessmen rush to work, coffee in tow, they’d have the time to point out my ratted mousey hair, or that mothers…

Living in the 21th century, things have definitely changed since the millennials and the technology era comes in place. Easy access to information, communication, entertainment, and even ‘easy ways’ to get rich are so all over the place. Our era has become an era where everything needs to either be fast or easy. Let’s just say Starbucks. Back in the days, we used to brew and make our own coffee, but not anymore. Now, everyone goes to Starbucks in the morning to get their morning coffee.…

As I walked out of the cafeteria and outside for recess I saw him… standing there in the freezing cold air, watching me as the snowflakes fell on my head. We locked eyes and It was like my heart was pounding out of my chest beat, after beat, after beat, going a hundred miles and hour. Then he turned away. my heart rate went down and my blood was running normally again. It was the 2nd week of the 3rd grade school year, and I already had someone on my back, Justin Heart. He was in 5th grade, 9…

I have finished reading No Easy Way Out by Dayna Lorentz. I have read pages 440-505 this week. The prompt I have chosen this week is: “How characters react to changes that are happening.” The characters react to changes that are happening by acting in panic, thinking carefully, and making fatal decisions. A reason how the characters react to the changes that are happening is how the characters act in panic. Near the end of the book, a man is discovered in a vault of money at the end of the True…

This was horrible. A class about monster tracking...great. I pull up on my black silk gloves they were a part of my uniform, along with a black and red plaid skirt, black saddle shoes, white knee high socks, and a white sweater. I hated it, but I had no choice, nobody can know how different I am. “Right class, what do you do when you see a monster,” asked Mrs. Shard in an annoying high-pitched voice that made my ears bleed. I wanted to flinch, but I couldn't for no one heard what I did.…

My Mrs. Henry Lafayette Dubose was a math grade. What? A math grade? How would a math grade greatly affect someone? Coming from someone who has gotten straight “A’s” in all her classes, a math grade - a low “C” - would probably cause lots of commotion. Friday, one more day until the weekend and my birthday. After first period’s geometry test, I can relax and just patiently wait for Mr. Keem to post the grades tonight. My classmates and I all frantically pulled out our notes and began reviewing…

I was pretty aware of the importance of color of products and toys for kids. I did think it is funny that dolls are known to be for girls, to dress up or play with it. While I do believe that action figures that boys often play with, is literally the same has a doll, just under another name. I do believe that there were a lot of gender messages to both boys and girls. As I said before the importance of color of the toys for girls and boys do portray…

The ride from Fallborn to Talon’s Hollow is a long one. Today it is made worse by the waves of pain crashing over me. What they did to me in that place was terrible, but a fine excuse for all the people that now lay dead. After I broke free I had to kill nine of them before anyone would talk. I should have asked them why, but I just want to forget the pain. They erased my memories so I knew they could erase the last year of my life. One of them finally told me that they had a facility in…
