U Turn

I didn’t know how to program so that was out of the question from the other three choices I had left I decided to work on the wheels which didn’t seem too difficult to do. The size of the wheels was already drawn on the piece of wood it was just my turn to cut them out and sand them. I went to the back and picked up the electric jig saw to begin cutting out the wheels. I had no idea how to use the power tools so I asked one of the officers for…

Drop Dead Gorgeous “Come on girls, let’s hit up the farm later” said Miley, the cool girl at school, who did’nt know that I was in the stall behind her. “NO, it’s gotten out of hand” said Miley’s sidekick Latifa “you need to stop!” Miley screamed “You know what. FINE! I don’t need you, everybody at this school bows down to me anyway, and all these losers would be lucky to have me!” Both Miley and Latifa walked away in different directions, while I walked out of my stall and went away with my…

hopes of drowning out her parents squabble. She was pretty sure they’d been at it at least 15 minutes; which was, in her opinion, 15 minutes too long to spend arguing over which type of wine and cheese to take to the get together tonight. “Tori, turn down the TV you’re going to go deaf!” Her mother called over the cacophony in the house. Tori rolled her eyes a little but turned it down for a minute before turning the tv off completely. She sighed as she pushed herself up from the couch and…

F.A.S.T is the abbreviation I promised my 10 year old self that I will remember from now on. I promised to know the signs of a stroke and know how to save someone from ending up like my mother did. It was one of those sunny yet mucky day when my mother and I were riding in her green lincoln on our way to pick up my friend. On that day I realized that I would never forget the signs of a stroke again. “Are you ready love?” are the words my mom spoke as we prepared to get in the car and head to…

problems because of how old it was, but we did not expect this to happen. My dad, Justin, and I got into the truck as usual and expected nothing to be wrong. “Why won’t the truck turn on?” My dad asks with a confused look on his face. He continues to turn the key back and forth in the ignition to see if it would turn on, but there was no luck. Everything else in the car was working, except the engine. Once we ruled out that the battery was still okay, my dad got out of the car, went to the…

Three…Two...One… Beep...Beep...Beep. My day starts off my my alarm clock waking me up at 7:20 and I press the snooze button so I can get an extra five minutes of sleep. Three...Two...One Beep...Beep...Beep turn off my alarm. I looked at my phone to see what time it is and it is 7:20. I stretch my body so I can get out of bed and then I rub my eyes to get the eye bugger out if I have any. Then I hop out of bed and put on my sandals. I open my door and walk down the stair slowly. While walking…

The good karma had returned. Another turn, we are on North One, the main road. Once again, roads are clear. We pick up speed. Upcoming right turn onto D410 Street. Another quarter mile and the mission is complete. SSG Mike announces on the radio, “Remember, the ice cream gets off-loaded first.” The convoy turns right toward the Al Azimiyah bridge. It looked like traffic bottlenecked ahead at the bridge. Iraqi checkpoints…

the rooms are not just simple switches on and off, but rather a very high tech touchpad system that required a password to access. This proved to be a problem throughout the week when I had to apologize to customers, because I did not know how to turn the lights on in any room, nevertheless I was very embarrassed. Another weakness, was when being introduced to the staff and management I was not taken to the main office. I was only introduced to the people that just so happen to be working…
