Till We Have Faces

I have one brother and two sisters. My brothers name is Alec and my sisters names are Hannah and Clarissa. Clarissa is the oldest one, then it's Hannah, Alec, then me. I'm the youngest in the family.

The boys in the family play football because our dad played for a while in middle school and high school. Football has carried into my brother and…

that face special challenges. Being a part of this program had an effect on my outlook on life where I transitioned from a child to an adult mentally. Each of the young girls I had worked with were different in their own way and each had an impact on me. The first day of the program I was a bit nervous. Kaity, my dance partner, had a difficult time walking and getting around the studio. Despite this, my dance partner will always have a smile on her face from the moment practice started till it…

Both Ghosts We Knew and Heroes have any similarities relating to moving from the past, in Heroes by Robert Cormier, there were a lot about not being able to move from the past, one of the things that was how Francis went to war and his face got very deformed from that experience. I don't think that moment will ever leave his mind, I feel like that will stick with him till he dies because that was a very tragic moment and a big part of the book was about that time in his life. its hard to forget…

In life, there are many challenges we face every day of our lives. We have a choice to be successful in these challenges, or we can let the challenges defeat us. One of the most recent challenges I have arisen to is my education. As an incoming freshman to college, our entire lives change and it can sometimes be hard to know which way to go. My most recent educational experience was my senior year of high school and I was successful and challenged in many different aspects. High school was four…

don't deserve to starve to death and deal with stuff like that, that is really cruel that had happen to the jews and i ain't even have to be jewish to know that was wrong. No one deserves to go through such horrible things like that, and we all know no one would want to go through it.

My sister, brother, and I had count down the weeks and days till it was the day to go to Six Flags Magic Mountain. Every day we always brought up Six Flags, and what we were going to do when we got there,…

you do know any of us tonight, you’ll never live to be sixty-five”. 2. Make a prediction- What if the men had only beaten, but not killed, Emmett. How might this have ended differently? I don’t think it would of been such a big deal because he would still be alive and they wouldn’t of had the open casket funeral, it wouldn’t have been in newspapers or TV. It would never even gone to…

ready to go sledding.(There's a park behind my house so that's where we usually go.) While we were outside getting the sleds from the garage. Mom was doing the dishes and dad was watching a basketball game. We were all bundled up in warm clothes and hats/gloves. We go over to the park and start sledding we raced to see who could go down and up first, we fell on our faces sometimes and could feel the cool snow on our face. When we finally started to get bored and tired, Lilly my sister said…

Parks once said that “Racism is still with us. But it is up to us to prepare our children for what they have to meet, and, hopefully, we shall overcome”. This is my favourite quote from Rosa Parks. I really love this quote because in this quote, it shows that we can’t avoid racism if we do nothing. we can’t achieve anything without doing anything. That’s why this quote shows us that we should face the challenge not by running away from it but to overcome this challenge until it is no longer a…

titled “Positive effects of internet have been very Profitable” published on the web portal Buzzle.com. You opine that internet has a positive effect on everyone and is very helpful, however I feel that it has many drawbacks as well which can harm the users and have negative impacts, both mentally and physically. In your article, you have mentioned that “we depend on it more ways than one”, I anticipate that everyone shouldn’t be fully dependent on the internet as we humans will stop thinking…
