Windy

Snap! The lonely branches are breaking around me as I tumble down the snowy hill. The dizzier I felt, the more the pain started to hit me. I finally came to a stop and started to cry because it was too painful for me to handle. Now you are probably confused about what is going on. How did I fall and why was I tumbling? Well in order for you to understand the story, we need to start from the beginning. It was a sunny day in Park City, Utah. Fresh snow fell the morning before and it was a perfect…

Tundra is a type of desert in terms of precipitation, it receives very little rainfall. The Arctic Tundra is the youngest biome in the world- it formed only 10,000 years ago. When the snow melts, The Tundra has marshes, bogs, and lakes. It is very windy here, the winds blow between 30-60 miles per hour. The predators of the Tundra are wolves, polar bears, wolverines, and arctic foxes. There are only 1,700 species of plants in this area- which is not very much. Willows only grow to about 3 inches…

Either I paddle to safety, or I give up. Noticing that my heart rate was extremely high and my breathing was impaired, I sat up on my board to try to calm myself down. Breath after breath, in the powerful windy air, I started to feel better. I mustered enough courage up to start to paddle back to shore. Motivation was key, and luckily, that is one of my best attributes. I was at my favorite surfing spot ,where I always feel calm and happy. I was surfing at Mondo's right after a huge storm, which…

It was a dark and windy night. I, Anthony Marston, was in the living room with all the other soldiers. We all were discussing about how we were going to get out of Skull Island. Some soldiers gave terrible ideas while others gave brilliant ideas. Instead I suggested to stay on the island and find out why it is all over the news. We also were trying to figure out who lured all of us onto the island as well. I then feel a lot of thirst, so I get up to get a drink of whiskey. While I am at the…

world. There was schools closing, places evacuated, and roads being closed off. Shelters was being opened for families that homes burned and have nowhere to go. The two boys set the fire at the worst time Pigeon Forge was in a drought and it was windy which caused the fire to spread easier. Many people came to Pigeon Forge to help clean up and others came to give the shelters and schools supplies. Some…

Littering has become an issue in my community over the last several years. About 5 years ago, an alteraine recreational vehicle club was developed by my home and with it came an increase in traffic thus, an increase in littering. During windy days, litter can be seen blowing along the roadways and into yards along the roadway. Everyone has heard the slogan “Keep America Beautiful”, but I never really thought about what that meant until now, when I see the changes in my own community. Litter…

absence has gone through me like the ad through a needle. Everything I do is stitched with its color." This quote never really made sense to me until I lost someone lost someone very dear to my heart, my great great grandma. She passed away on a cold, windy, November night in 2011. I was only 8 years old when this occurred but it seemed like the end of the world to me. This experience taught me that family is all that you need to get you through the hardships that life brings you. My grandma…

Lady Ezekiel was walking home on a cool, windy afternoon. She was an older woman of small stature who looked as if she had worked her entire life. As she walked around the corner leading to her driveway she noticed her grandchildren noisily playing in her yard. Running throughout the yard, the house, and her flower garden. Though she was overjoyed at the sight of these beasts, she couldn’t help but feel a bit frustrated that her daughter had dropped them off without so much as a phone call. As…

their grades and preparing for big changes. As Kite Day approaches, the Kindergarteners anticipate finding out who their special eighth-grader will be. During prayer time, the kindergarteners often include prayer requests for good weather and a windy day! “Kite Day was a great experience. It was a great way to hang out, eat goldfish, and fly some crazy Ninja Turtle kites! My buddy Bryce Myrick was such…

the book and never seem to look up. Compared to other readings I have seen, it looked like she is doing a presentation that she didn’t want to do it. The quality of the video didn’t help her reading because when she read, she was at the beach on a windy day. So, when she was speaking, it was a bit difficult to hear her because her voice is low and all I hear is swoosh sounds from the wind and of the ocean. Besides not being able to listen to her speak when…
