The Hurt Locker

Every sports fanatic wishes that they could go back and replay their sports years again. But in my case, mine were just starting.

Neither did I until it happened before wrestling practice as we were warming up when I broke my collarbone. This all started the day after Thanksgiving at wrestling practice. We were warming up playing basketball and if someone didn’t make it you had to start sprinting for the ball. Well I wasn’t really interested in the game because I was talking to my friends. Then…

went to my vice-principal and explained everything that was happening and he told me to “Stand up for myself’ and to “Ignore it”. The reason I did not stand up for myself is because I did not want to hurt the people bullying me. It sounds crazy that I do not want to hurt them, but they do not care to hurt me. I felt that if I stood up for myself I would be just like them. School staff members do not need to tell the victim to handle it on their own. They need to examine the case and talk to…

Although this quote seems fairly self-explanatory, there’s more to it than what it appears to mean on the surface. Actions can hurt just as much as words, and the events that occur throughout a lifetime can pile up to have an enormous impact on a person’s life. A high schooler who isn’t outright bullied can still feel oppressed from little things that happen to them throughout the years, such as a friend always choosing somebody else as their partner for a project. This is evident in the book…

planning out a school shooting on that day. Freshman had said that he “wanted to shoot up the school,” and that he had a plan on how we would do so. He was immediately taken from his class as soon as the report was made. Officers searched the student’s locker and his parents were called. Rumors suddenly swept the school about who the person was and what their plan was. Most of the rumors were later proven to be wrong. Such…

men’s sports. One of these negative effects is the increase safety risk by having a female in a game with a bunch of males. Another negative effect of Title IX is the decrease of privacy in the locker rooms for professional sports teams. This is because the female reporters are allowed to enter the men’s locker rooms to conduct interviews before and after sporting…

Restricting access to the means for suicide works. An effective strategy for preventing suicides and suicide attempts is to restrict access to the most common means, including pesticides, firearms and certain medications. The risk of suicide increases dramatically when children and adolescents have admittance to guns at home, and about 60% of all suicides in the United States are submitted with a weapon.
