The sky was so pale. With not one cloud in sight. It had rained before, the clouds cried their hearts out today. Their not so silent screams could be heard through out the town. But there was one positive outcome. Everything in the park now looked clean,Fresh. The birds were singing happily. Some were bathing in the bird dish.The once dried up flowers and trees were now fresh and colourful.It was like the once dead environment got a dash of colour and came to live. Isn 't it weird that how someone 's cry benefits the other. Very similar to the human life.
I could see children playing on the swings. They looked so happy. They were oblivious to the world 's problems. They couldn 't care less. I wish I was a little kid too. Playing in the mud. Not caring about anything. They were pushing and playing and shouting. Mom 's sitting in the far corner were chatting about how Christine 's husband bought her a new diamond ring from Turkey. Me? I was sitting behind a bunch of trees observing everyone. Now and then I 'll greet someone jogging by.Wondering why im such a soul-less depressed creature? Well, Greetings I 'm Zoe Allison Trainer. 16 and a free spirit with a dream to travel around the world.The usual.I don 't seem too bad now do I? But wait till you hear this.
I was only 5 when I was diagnosed with leukemia. My Father worked two jobs just to pay the rents and for my treatment until one day he thought he didn 't need a dying daughter.He couldn 't handle more so he did what
The clouds persevere though, they sprinkle out the wicked hopes of the cheatgrass. They keep the rivers babbling to the beautiful twisted knot of trees. They give a gulp of refreshing water to the dry desert dust, giving it a squishy voice to add into nature’s song. Soon the birds, the crickets and the frogs will come back and add their
Everybody in the family was super happy and proud of him and so was he. But unfortunately a couple years after the cancer came back, but this time in his lungs. He pushed through for a really long time until he couldn't do it, he just couldn't last any longer. Unfortunately, he passed away, the doctors couldn't do much to get rid of his lung cancer. Him having cancer not only once, but two times was obviously the biggest roadblock of his life.

The air stands still as you walk around the decaying buildings. The feeling of something watching you is heavily present in your thoughts. An oder, a damp, musty, moldy odor, fills your nose as you try to peek inside and see what 's in these decrepit buildings.
In a life changing year and a half, my mother went through radiation treatments and multiple surgeries.
After her first surgery and a few weeks into radiation treatments my mother became gravely ill. She struggled to get out of bed and every day became a battle. When my brother and I could get away from school we would wait in the hospital with her. Her health
My hands became clammy and my heart started racing. I did not want to believe the words coming out of my mother’s lips, “His kidney failed three weeks after the operation, he is dead”. I was just 5 years old and I felt like there was no purpose to live. My father was everything to me. I already missed his genuine kindness, the way his smile formed whenever he talked to me about life, and the times where we had father-son time at the airport, watching airplanes fly.
As I throw the ball into the gushing waves Halem runs after it barking and wagging his tail. When he returns to the safe shore he places the ball down and shakes the salty water all over me. Whilst laughing I grab the ball and go and sit on the sand dunes watching him run circles around other dogs and watching the sun reflect a pastel orange upon the ocean remembering the first time I saw the sunset at Cabarita beach, nearly two years ago.
After I travelled for 4 hours I decided to make a pit stop at the beach to stretch my legs before I went to find my hotel for the night.
It felt weird to be disconnected and “off the grid.” I truly could see the beauty in everything I saw. Nature taught me to be observant and look at everything from a different point of view. Nature made me realize how much time I have to just be a human being. To just be alone by
The roads became more broken down. Suddenly the beeping of the cars startled my thoughts and my world unfroze. I felt the droplets accumulating under my eyes. Tears began rolling down my face. It was at that moment that I realized how honored I was to have everything

Thematic Essay
The book, The Things They Carried, by Tim O’Brien, is a story that is full of emotion and tragedy due to the horrors of the Vietnam War. War in general is a terrible thing for anyone to go through, as you would either be traumatized for life from your fellow soldiers being killed, or you would be killed yourself in a horrific way. The point being, war is far from being fun, or to look cool, but rather it is a sacrifice of the soldier’s emotions and physical being. The book talks a great deal of fear, as Tim O’Brien has stated from numerous characters in his book, and how, despite seemingly courageous an act may seem, it can be, and most likely is a very frightening thing
I remember when I was going to start school. The school I went to was called Lincoln Elementary. It was just a short four streets down from my house. I was a little nervous and slightly scared to go. I didn’t want to have to leave home and be gone for so long.

Life for me growing up was super difficult. A lot of my childhood was pure traumatic. Also, it was a struggle for me and my family, money wise and food wise. Also, our house was very small. We even lost our father and I also became a teen mom.
Student Engagement
A good teacher should know how to engage students in learning activities and be able to respond to diverse students needs in the classroom. The classroom observations I have seen these past week has shown me examples of good teachers. In all the classes I observed the students sat quietly and were always ready to raise their hands and answer questions. In my kindergarten class all the students were really into their assignments and wanted approval of their work from their teacher.
